In an address given to the Planters' Association of Malaya in 1912 on his return from a visit to India,

J. R. O. Aldworth, Controller of Labour, Malaya, described 'the scene on a busy day', the day prior to

the departure of the weekly steamer, in the Negapatam camp as follows: … Dr Foston (Malayan Emigration Agent) is early on the scene and while the coolies in camp are having

their breakfast the arrivals by the first train are admitted. First they come in the big gate into the

admission yard where each kangani lines up coolies, holding in his hand his licence… Two clerks at

tables in the office verandah are ready to write down details. There are two receptacles for the licences

when they have been handed in by the kanganis. The Super- intendent of the Depot, the Resident Medical

Assistant, and several peons are present. The first kangani advances with his men and hands his licence

to the Medical Assistant who reads out the name of the estate, the number of coolies arriving and other

details which are written down by the clerk. The licence is placed in one or other of the receptacles

according to whether the railway tickets have been prepaid by the recruiting inspector or have been paid

by the kanganis. Meanwhile the Doctor has been running his eye over the cooties and if any of them are

obviously unfit, the whole batch, on leaving the yard, wait in one appointed spot. If nothing is wrong

with them they wait in another place. The next batch advances… After the coolies arriving by the

morning train have been either provisionally admitted, or rejected, they are again scrutinized by the

Superintendent and probably some more are rejected for medical or other reasons. When the selection

process has been completed all the coolies in camp are lined up and the camp regulations are read out to

them. This procedure is gone through every morning and is a useful introduction to the estate discipline

which is to follow. At muster every coolie is provided with a cheroot and some betel with the usual

condiments for chewing. The muster having been dismissed, the new coolies are free to amuse themselves or make a few simple purchases in the shop, to be shaved or to rest for a few hours. Some estates desire all

their coolies to undergo a vigorous medical examination before they are shipped; for which examination a

fee of one dollar is charged. Every week a few coolies undergo this ordeal before shipping day. By two

o'clock in the afternoon (on the day of shipping)… every man in the camp will have been shaved, and

have had his hair cut in the few instances in which this is desired. Then they are all lined up for their

gingelly oil bath. They squat on the ground with their hands extended in front of them, while two

attendants, one with a large tin of oil and one with a dipper, pass down the row, and give each cootie a

handful of oil and as often as not pour a quantity on their heads. Ten minutes are allowed for the

rubbing of the oil, then at a given signal they move down in batches to the canal where five minutes is allowed for a good wash. At another signal they march up to the drying ground while their places in the

canal are taken by another batch… i While all this was going on the clothes and often the belongings of the emigrants were disinfected and those with insufficient clothing were issued with some new items.2 Rejection of kangani recruits was mainly on medical or political grounds. Rejected labourers were

returned to their homes, the cost being paid by kanganis or debited to the kanganis' employers by the financial agent.3
