:Findmypast, pay website, database [https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/asia-far-east-directories-and-chronicles-1833-1941 Asia, Far East Directories & Chronicles 1833-1941], with a [https://www.findmypast.com/articles/asia-far-east-directories-and-chronicles-1833-1941-titles Publication list], introduced 2021/12/10. The database is searchable by name. An examination of a sample of three volumes indicated they were all digitised by others (2 by Google Books and one by National Library of Scotland) and were available elsewhere, and it is suspected that the whole database is similar, and does not include any "new" digitisations. The Findmypast viewer for this database is slow, and it would be quicker to view a volume elsewhere.
