520 3    |a One of a set of 59 manuscript letters, referred to generally as the Thalang Letters, written in Thai, most from the Governors of Thalang (ถลาง; Governor: Pia Pimon, also spelled: Pia Phimon and Phya Pimon), Phatthalung (พัทลุง), Phuket (ภูเก็ต), and Trang (ตรัง) to the Governor of Penang (ปีนัง, Palau Pinang), most probably Captain Francis Light (เซอร์ ฟรานซิส ไลต์, Kapten Francis Light), asking for supplies of arms and ammunition for their war against the Burmese; for cloth, often on the orders of the King of Thonburi (Siam, ธนบุรี), as well as for rice and opium, the latter in exchange for tin. One letter is from the Minister of War, stating that Tavoy (Dawei, ထားဝယ်, ทวาย) had surrendered, and asking for arms and rice to supply the Siamese army as it prepared to moved against Mergui (မြိတ်ကျွန်းစု, Kepulauan Mergui), Maulmein (Mawlamyine, Mawlamyaing, မတ်မလီု, မော်လမြိုင်မြို့) Rangoon (Yangon, ရန်ကုန်မြို့, ย่างกุ้ง), and Ava Kingdom (အင်းဝခေတ်, อาณาจักรอังวะ, Kerajaan Ava).
