Untold History : Kurious Kase of "British Krown Agent" in Malaya

1st started in 1749.. numbers of 25 'agents' yang dilantik oleh Krown Office utk mengutip hasil dari Colonies2 British diserata dunia.. so basically mcm "Auditor" report directly to the British Crown, even Governor British pun takde kuasa or lesser extend dari power yg dia ada.



Tugas2 Krown Agent :

Treasury Dept. bagi Crown Colonies.  Mengambil hak/tanah/pegangan kerajaan asing dengan cara 'funding' secara paksa utk project2 yg besar.  And, dorang kenekan interest about 3.75% bagi setiap 'pinjaman' yg later di disbursekan dari nett income negara2 terbabit.



They have been in China in 1800's, Japan, India, Canada and Singapore... daripada monopoly certains goods... dan funding project2 yg 'digunakan' utk mengambil tanah kerajaan asing pada zaman itu ialah - Railways.. same mcm cerita Last Samurai and few other chinese make history films. 



Named it.. dari Antigua.. sampai ke Jepun and Canada... dorang "colonized" mereka dgn cara ni...

But....

CURIOUS CASE OF MALAYA

British Crown Agent tidak pernah campurtangan or gunakan cara mcm diatas utk 'mengambil hak' orang2 Melayu.  Few major project has been initiated tanpa campurtangan terus dari Crown Agent.





Infact contrary, Crown Agent membantu investment harta2 raja2 melayu dgn stock market dan Bond2 negera sejak 1898 on which was declared lepas perang WWII.



Mule2.. aku nampak.. "Crown Agent" ni mcm Body Corporate.. or mcm IMF laa skarang.  Kasi susah negara2 yg dah memang susah.. 

But later, baru aku perasan...they play a bigger roles dalam influencing certain country.. termasuk Malaya... 

.... for the fact that Tunku Abdul Rahman our founding father was their "Agent".. or groomed by Crown Agent itself.



TAR was registered with Crown Agent semasa dia belajar di UK sometimes in 1930's.  His Guardian semasa di UK adalah Ezekiel Hartsford, bekerja dgn Crown Agent office UK.  

Sometime in 1950's.. somebody yang tak terkenal dari Negeri Sembilan nominate him to against Dato' Onn dlm persidangan UMNO.  Then, sejak itu.. 'these' hidden hand mula mengambil peranan atas anak didiknya utk mengemudi negara.  

From starting of colonization in Malaya 1824.. sampai sekarang 2011... Crown Agent tak pernah buat keje di Malaya, or involve project yang besar2... but.. they have office here in Malaya sampai sekarang.. whatdefak??? 





The best thing is.. kedua2 office tersebut, di Malaya dan di Singapore.. mempunyai alamat yang same - kedua2 di Singapore.. di Malaya dorang tak declare alamat dorang. 
They were not taken our richness directly... but, they were 'impersonate'... then they 'go', but they 'stay'.. 

There are 2 sides of story here... are they good.. or they bad??
