Royal Cédula on Chinese in the Philippines

Spanish authorities in the Philippines implemented a royal decree out of fear of a Chinese uprising similar to the one in Manila, though the decree's date and author are unstated.

The sole relevant passage records that, for fear of a Chinese uprising similar to that in Manila, the Spanish authorities implemented the royal decree of a governor. It does not name King Carlos III, give a year, or describe rounding up ethnic Chinese into provincial ghettoes, so no date or place can be asserted for this development.
