This film is held by the Imperial War Museum (ID: JFU 406).

Synopsis

The newly returned Governor of Burma, Sir Reginald Dorman-Smith, attends a civic reception in Rangoon and makes a speech.

Dorman-Smith and Lady Dorman-Smith get out of their car at City Hall, Rangoon. Dim interior shots of Dorman-Smith meeting various dignitaries, and delivering his speech.

Notes

Dopesheet names a Mya Bu (presumably the former Chief Justice of that name) as having headed the reception committee, as well as 'U Ba Clay' [Ko Lay?], apparently a former mayor of Rangoon, a 'U S O Nyin' and a Colonel B Rennick.
