PREFACE. 
1. British Malaya includes — 
(a) The Crown Colony of the Straits 
Settlements consisting of the settle- 
ments of Singapore, Malacca, the 
Dindings, Province Wellesley and 
Penang. 
( b ) The protected Federated Malay States — 
Perak, Selangor, Negri Sembilan and 
Pahang. 
(c) The protected Unfederated Malay 
States — Johore, Kedah, Kelantan and 
Trengganu. 
2. Each of the States has its own Government and 
its own laws but the latter are as far as 
possible uniform and are in general con- 
formity with those of the Straits Settlements. 
3. The European staff for the whole of Malaya 
is appointed by the Colonial Office and each 
member is, as a rule, liable for service in any 
part of the peninsula or in Singapore or 
Penang.
