Another rare document...this document was issued during the Japanese occupation of Malaya. This document is a report of a court case and was stamped 24 / 1 / 1944. The other stamp is from the Japanese and is dated 24 January 2604 (Japanese used different dates during their occupation). A scarce document! |
