| description | During the inter-war years, the Colonial Empire played a significant role in contributing tropical
products to the United Kingdom. Besides supplying raw materials, the colonies also contribute to
the food supply for the mother country's inhabitants. In 1925, the Imperial Economic Committee
began promoting and inquiring the empire’s food product for consumption in the United Kingdom.
Afterwards, the British government introduced the Colonial Development Act of 1929 to
encourage tropical development in the Colonial Empire. However, the present study neglected the
influence of that on Malayan economic activities. Thus, this article examines the implementation
of the colonial development policy in promoting Malayan pineapples industry. This study used
content analysis to construct the relationship between colonial policy and economic development
in Malaya. This study provides historical evidence and data collected from the National Archives
of the United Kingdom and Malaysia's National Archives. The findings showed that the imperial
aid had supported Malaya in becoming a major supplier for canned pineapples in the British
Empire. However, the colonial development policy led the colonial government in Malaya as the
debtor to the imperial government. |
