October 1 st. 1908.
Your Excellency:-
Referring to previous correspondence on the
subject of the appointment of a Chinese Consul in Bur-
m&h I have now the honour to state that I have received
telegraphic instructions from the Wai-Wu-Pu to inform
Your Excellency that my Government propose, in accord
ance with the stipulations of Article XIII of the Bur-
raah Convention of March the 1st. 1894 and the Agreement
of February the 4th. 1897 forthwith to appoint a Chi
nese Consul for Rangoon.
While the Consul at Rangoon remains the only
Chinese Consul in Burmah he will have charge, as far as
he properly can, of the interests of all Chinese sub-
jects who may be residing in that country permanently
or temporarily.
