*Note to Admiral Baltasar
Admiral, the Imperial Administration believes that a modernised naval base in Guangzhou would be in our best interest not only because of the logistical reasons in China, but also because of the way it would improve the prospects for future expansion. Large naval bases will be needed if we are to confront the UK and the USA on the seas and project our power into Indochina, Burma, Dutch East Indies and beyond.
