I met Tristam Charles Sawyer Speedy aka Captain Speedy
over a peg of Timah the all new Malaysian whiskey.
Captain Speedy was the English Superintendent of the Penang police force in 1871 who was assigned the task of suppressing the triad Ghee Hin and Hai San Chinamen in the tin-mining district of Taiping.
'With Indian troops he quelled the unrest and created peace & order.
For bringing harmony & giving Perak this Heritage beverage I salute Cap'n Speedy.
Cheers!
