On one hand, they were prospering economically, but were nonetheless held in contempt by the Dutch, encountered legal discrimination and faced challenges if they wanted to educate their children in European schools. Their marginal position motivated them do their utmost to become “civilized subjects”, on a par with Europeans, but they were also inspired to reinvent their Chinese identity. This contribution will highlight role played by “enlightened” Chinese, the kaoem moeda bangsa Tjina. Central to this movement were the Chinese girls known to the public as bangsawan prampoewan (the noblewomen), who wrote letters the newspaper and creating a gendered public sphere. They also performed western classical music in public. Considering the inspirational impact of bangsawan prampoewan’s enlightening achievements on non-Chinese women, it is appropriate to include them into the narrative of the history of the nation’s women’s movements. KEYWORDS Chinese; women; modernity; progress; newspapers; Semarang; Surabaya; western classical music; Kartini. Didi Kwartanada studies history of the ethnic Chinese in Indonesia, especially Java. He is currently the Director of the Nation Building Foundation (NABIL) in Jakarta and is preparing a book on the history of Chinese identity cards in Indonesia.

Reg. 11,818, March 16, 2018) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Tobacco Product Standard for Nicotine Level of Certain Tobacco Products Altria Client Services (“ALCS”), on behalf of Philip Morris USA Inc. (“PM USA”), John Middleton Company (“JMC”), and Sherman Group Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries (“Nat Sherman”),1 submits these comments to the Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA’s” or the “Agency’s”) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“ANPRM”) on a Tobacco Product Standard for Nicotine Level of Certain Tobacco Products. The ANPRM comes within the context of an industry in the midst of transformative change. Cigarette smoking is at historically low levels and continues to decline. At the same time, a new market is emerging in innovative noncombustible tobacco products that are potentially less harmful than cigarettes. There is now a scientific consensus that noncombustible products, like e-vapor, are substantially less risky than conventional cigarettes. It is smoke, and not nicotine, that causes most tobacco- related harm. And adult smokers are increasingly expressing interest in switching from cigarettes to less risky alternatives. We agree that a nicotine product standard of some sort may make sense in a future regulatory system, but this requires the pre-existence of a marketplace with alternative, FDA-authorized, reduced risk products; more information about the relative risks of those products; and a regulatory system that respects the rights of adults to make decisions based on accurate information.

    Vol. 16 Issue 03 2020 OCT–DEC 10 / Opium Taxes 16 / Shootouts in Singapore 23 / Commemorating Clemenceau 34 / From Plan to Building 48 / Katong’s Lost Palace 54 / The Java Enigma Sirih, Pinang and Kapor The Art of the Betel Chew p. 04 Betel chewing is a time-honoured practice in Southeast Asia although the custom has mostly Director’s died out here. In our cover story, Fiona Lim and Geoffrey Pakiam explore various aspects of the betel quid. Years ago, I remember asking my husband’s late aunt to make a quid for me to try but she refused, saying that it would be too intoxicating. Note Those intoxicating effects are nowhere near as dangerous as opium smoking. Yet, about a century ago, partaking of this opiate was so prevalent among the Chinese coolie community that it made up half of the colonial government’s annual tax takings. Diana S. Kim explains how the colony ended its dependence on opium revenue. Violent gun crime also used to be common in Singapore; up until the 1960s, street shootouts and kidnappings of millionaires were regular occurrences. Tan Chui Hua’s account of the city’s gun-happy gangsters is a reminder that the “good old days” weren’t always so good. On a less violent note, this year is the centenary of former French Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau’s visit here and the 50th anniversary of the opening of Queenstown Library. Lim Tin Seng revisits 1920 while Paddy Jonathan Ong recounts the history of Singapore’s first proper branch library. We then turn to the National Archives of Singapore with Yap Jo Lin as our guide.
