Lintian Republic information


The Lintian Republic (Chinese: 霖田公司, Hakka/Dutch: Lim-Thian; "Misty fields company"), known post-1850 as Xinle Republic (Chinese: 新樂公司, Hakka/Dutch: Xim-Lok; "New happiness company") was an autonomous Chinese kongsi federation located in the Budok (Chinese: 烏落, Hakka: Boedok) district of West Kalimantan, Borneo. It joined the Heshun Confederation in 1850 and was dissolved in 1854 at the hands of the Dutch East Indies.

Pre-1850 coin circulated among the Lintian kongsi. The front says in Chinese 霖田公司 "Lintian kongsi", while the back has an unknown Manchu legend (possibly a corruption of the words "boo ciowan", the mark of the Ministry of Revenue mint in Beijing)
