Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Practicability of Re-Opening the Trade Route: Between Burma and Western China Outlets for our increasing commerce should be the pri;' mary consideration, and everything should be made subservient to it. Railways, Telegraphs, Roads, Bridges, Factories. And faci lities for pouring in Our goods, Should have a far greater weight, in the councils of wise men, than the prejudices and supersti tions Of semi savages, who own an equivocal allegiance to a des pot, whose only policy is the amassing of riches, the propagation of abominable Ido'latrous superstitions, and the gratification Of selfish and sensual indulgenc[4] The Chief Commissioner, in his up-hill work of starting the Bhamo Expedition, solicited and Obtained the apparently active co-operation Of the King Of Burma. Listening to the arguments and suggestions Of Colonel Fytche, he gave orders that one Of his Steamers Should convey the party to Bhamo, ordered the Ministers, Woons, and Officers to give us every facility in passing through the country; at the same time sea cretly doing every thing in his power to counteract what he had done, and so arranging it, that even assassination was to be resorted to, to prevent our return, sooner than the expedition should succeed. Of this we have ample proof, which will be shewn at the proper time and place. With the passive want of cordiality of our own Governa ment, the restrictions and cautions conveyed in the instruc tions to the Governor of his Province, and to Capt. Sladen, the Head of the Expedition, it is surprising that the whole affair did not collapse at the beginning.

Download or read book Imperial Borderlands written by Marie de Rugy and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a connected history of South-East Asian borderlands, drawing on late nineteenth-century British and French geographical policies and practice. It focuses on the ‘scramble’ in Asia, when, in 1885, the British Raj incorporated Upper Burma and the French created a Protectorate in Annam-Tonkin, the Northern part of present-day Vietnam. Fought over by the imperial states and neighbouring nations, the frontier zones were fashioned and represented not only by the two European powers, but also by the Chinese Empire, the Kingdom of Siam, and the local populations. The counterpoint between the discourses produced and the cartographical practices on the ground, in the longue durée, reveals the interacting processes of territory-building in all their unpredictability. This book is the updated version of the author’s Aux confins des empires. Cartes et constructions territoriales dans le nord de la péninsule indochinoise (1885–1914) (Paris: Éditions de la Sorbonne, 2018). It is translated by Saskia Brown, an experienced academic translator from French in the humanities and social sciences.
