Abstract: Officials in Manila write of Dutch movements near the Philippines and the risks posed to the galleon trade. They stress the empire’s dependence on secure shipping routes and the need for reinforcements. References to Micronesian archipelagos, including the Marshall Islands, underscore anxiety over rival encroachment.
