Abstract

This title clearly indicates that this is a series of negotiations between the British and the Siamese Governments in the first nine years of the twentieth century. The prolonged dispute between the two countries was stirred up in 1902 by the wish of the Siamese Govern- ment, under the leadership of King Chulalongkorn, to settle some burning Anglo-Siamese questions such as the problems of extraterritoriality, the existence of the Anglo-Siamese Secret Convention of 1897 and the question of Siamese suzerainty over the northern Malay States of Kedah, Kelantan, Trengganu and Perlis. In order to appreciate the painful and slow attempts in resolving these existing problems, the origins of such difficulties should be explained.
