Malaya papers, 1882-1963
The arrangement of this Malayan material reflects the original filing system created by Clementi. There were 11 box files (now MSS. Ind. Ocn. s. 352 / 26-36) containing official correspondence relating to his period as Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Straits Settlements and High Commissioner for Malaya. The papers date from November 1929 to September 1934 and have been kept in their original order, which is basically chronological, with the exception of some items in MSS. Ind. Ocn. s. 352 / 34 and MSS. Ind. Ocn. s. 352 / 35.
MSS. Ind. Ocn. s. 352 / 37 (1 box) contains two files of correspondence relating to the proposals for a federation of British Borneo, dating from August 1930 to October 1933. Malayan material which arrived at a later date is to be found in MSS. Ind. Ocn. s. 352 / 38-43 (6 boxes) and is listed briefly below.
