Summary (also from the previous page)

On June 7, 1751, in Macassar, a report was written about Malay men and women who married Chinese Parnakans (people of mixed Chinese-local descent). The report mentioned that these Malays were seeking shelter with the Chinese Captain to avoid serving the Dutch East India Company. The Malay leaders were concerned that if this continued, they would not have enough people to fulfill their duties to the Company.

They requested permission to keep all Malays, both men and women, who were married to Chinese Parnakans, except those who had no connection to the Chinese Captain. These people would continue serving under the first signatory for the Company's benefit.

The document was signed by several Malay officials:
