Letters, Correspondence, and Articles 53 Saltpond (Gold Coast) Labwan (Borneo) Kumasi // Padang (Sumatra) Wa // Singapore Lagos (Nigeria) Batavia (Java) Zaria // Tasik Malaya // Bo (Sierra-Leone) Bandoeng // Free Town // These branches carry on missionary and cultural ac- tivities of the Ahmadiyya Movement in their respec- tive zones. From the above list you can readily see that justice and fairness shown to Qadian will be appreciated throughout the length and breadth of the world; if however the reverse be the case the widely spread Ahmadiyya branches all the world over will naturally find it difficult to praise the Indian Government even if they should so desire. 3. Ours is a purely religious Movement engaged in spiritual, cultural, missionary and educational activ- ities and fundamentally we have nothing to do with politics except in so far as is necessary for a citizen to come in contact with. So, if our Headquarter re- mains basically intact, as believing in Divine prom- ises we hope it will, the Government of the country can possibly have no fear and will be running no risk in granting us the protection that is our right. On the contrary such a spiritual and cultural centre devoted to a policy of peaceful co-operation will definitely be an asset to the Government under which it happens to be.
