Research Abstract |
We sought archival sources on Annual Reports of the Singapore Chamber of Commerce held by the Singapore National Library, the Singapore National University and the Singapore National Archive. As a result, we could collect all the existing reports(in the form of photocopies) between1887and1940. Those include Annual Reports of the Penang Chamber of Commerce and Agriculture between1887and1900. We can make a comparative study on both commercial organizations.
