On June 7, 1751, in Macassar, the Chinese Captain kept people with him continuously, just to exempt them from Company service. The Paranakan Chinese under his authority did no service or duties for the Honorable Company. However, the Malay subjects always had to be ready with their vessels and people to carry out the Company's strict orders. The chief interpreter could give a clear report about their willing services to the Company.
During the time when Mr. Soutijn was governor of Macassar and Intje Beende was Captain of the Malays, a Malay woman named Intje Roemia (who is now Intje Cappa's wife) went to stay with the Chinese Captain to be accepted as a Paranakan Chinese woman. After Captain Beende's complaint, this Malay woman Roemia was put in the prison until she paid her fines in money, after which she was released.
