Description

January 30th, Saturday P. 3 (1) Amoassador Lim made another announcement on February 29th stating that he had sent representatives to stay in Victoria to report daily the development of the case. He was informed that the case would not be discussed in the Parliament until the 5th of February. This meant that the Chinese would have more time to prepare for the appeal.

For example, "%. ^R; ^_J took the initiative to raise funds for then. He went from door to door and asked for donations. In the first fund driving activity, he was able to raise $3^5.60, 260 sacks <f rice, and many other groceries too. Starting on 28th January,free meals were provided for the needy in the C.B.A. building.
