Abstract
The years 1867-1873 was the time when the colony in Malaya (Straits Settlements), having ceased being a periphery and often an ignored part of England's Indian possessions acquired its own importance. Together with the changes in international relations and the new tendencies in the powers' colonial policy, on the one hand, this contributed to the transformation of the new Crown colony into a important outpost of the British empire in Asia, but, on the other hand, this meant a transition to a more active than formerly. England's interference into the affairs of Malayan principalities. Exactly in those years the governor of the Straits Settlements was Harry Ord. Ord had no experience of the service in the East, he was imperious and non-flexible; he appeared in Malaya in the period when in London a transition was just beginning from the policy of "non-interference" into the affairs of the Malayan principalities and to their seizure. Sir Henry having felt the changing wind in the British colonial policy, however, underestimated the position of the local society's upper classes and the force of inertia which prevailed in the Ministry of colonies and doomed himself to isolation and alienation both in London and Singapore. True, having failed in his attempts of interfering into the affairs of the principalities he well enough succeeded in giving the Straits Settlements the image and standards of a Grown Colony, thereby having solved the task that was entrusted to him.
