   * //"A notable development in labour policy was the establishment in 1907 of a centralised semi-official body, the Indian Immigration Committee (IIC), to facilitate and supervise South Indian labour recruitment. The IIC’s activities were strengthened in 1908 when, with the backing of employers, a Tamil Immigration Fund (the name was changed to the Indian Immigration Fund in 1910) was started to provide free passages for labourers to Malaya. All employers of Indian labour were charged a quarterly levy to cover the travel and related costs of free Indian labour migration to Malaya. This recruitment of voluntary workers was cheaper than the kangani system since intermediaries were bypassed, and additionally, the hold of the kangani over workers declined."// (Amarjit Kaur @ Modern Asian Studies 40, 2 (2006) pp. 425–475: {{ :lampiran:indian_labour_labour_standards_and_workers_health_1900-1940.pdf ||}}[[https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/350|"Indian Labour, Labour Standards, and Workers' Health in Burma and Malaya, 1900–1940"]]).

It is believed that both brothers had retired, but the big slump in the rubber industry when the price went below seven pence has caused a good few old planters to return and reorganise their large interests."// ("RIMBA", 1922: {{ :lampiran:cu31924023141371.pdf ||}}[[https://archive.org/details/cu31924023141371|"Bygone Selangor; a souvenir"]], m.s.40).
