Summary/Abstract |
On the basis of official documents of the colonial administration of Hong Kong, the article describes the policy of the British colonialists in Hong Kong using opium as a legal source of income in the first half of the 20th century. Despite decisions of several international conferences on control over drug trafficking, beginning from the Shanghai Opium Commission whose centenary was marked in 2009, Britain widely used opium for financial support of its rule in China, and stopped it only in 1945 under U.S. pressure.

Summary/Abstract |
This brief article, based on archival research, demonstrates how the various European mercantile and colonial powers fought proxy wars in Asia which endangered the early beginnings of British possessions in South Asia and risked the wrath of China. The article outlines an aborted attempt by the British to land troops in Macao to protect emerging British trade interests in the region and examines the reasons for this failed endeavour.
