World markets for vegetable fibers have been steadily declining in recent years, mainly as a result of substitution with synthetic materials. Jute has traditionally been one of the principal bast fibers (toimage basis) sold on the world market however, the precipitous decline in jute exports by India (Fig. 2) indicate the decreasing market demand for this fiber that is vitally important to the economies of India (West Bengal), Bangladesh, and Pakistan.

It is hard to overemphasise the impact of the consumption of opium on China in the nineteenth century. Before this trade began, China was a proud, self-sufficient, technologically and scientifically advanced nation (some have claimed China was often 4-7 centuries in advance of the European nations in these respects). By the end of the nineteenth century China was weakened to the extent that it was hard to govern, impoverished and technologically surpassed by its neighbour Japan, North America and the European nations. The roots of its troubled history in the twentieth century could be said to lie in the soil of Bengal where the East India Company grew its opium. 

This Turkish connection ensured that Aceh would see itself differendy placed from the sultanates positioned around the Java Sea. States like Palembang and Banjarmasin were always involved with coastal Javanese politics, and acknowledged the appeal of Javanese culture even when they were in conflict with specific Javanese states. For them, interactions with the Dutch successors to Javanese maritime power were inescapable. By contrast, Aceh never had significant contact with Java, but much with the Malay states of the Peninsula and Sumatra, where it loomed as the major power until the mid-seventeenth century, and with the Middle East, South India and the countries around the Bay of Bengal.1 Because of its trade connections, it had more South Indian and Arab elements in its population, and in court roles including the royal dynasty itself, than did other Indonesian peoples.

It is important to note that the information obtained by each of the above techniques is very useful for understanding the composition and behaviour of a particular sample. A particularly appropriate example was the investigation of ground-water pollution by arsenic in the Lower Ganga Plain of West Bengal in India and Bangladesh. At one location, arsenic concentration was clearly well above the safe drinking threshold, while at another in the close proximity it was not toxic [24]. In this...
