Lorenzo Gamboa[edit]

  • ... that the treatment of Lorenzo Gamboa under the White Australia policy led the Philippine House of Representatives to pass a bill banning Australians from the country? "In 1949, the parliament in Manila passed a Reciprocity Immigration Bill, which, if it had been enacted, would have prevented Australians from entering the Philippines." [1]:195 (general summary). [2] gives more detail and explains the explicit connection with Gamboa and that the bill passed only the House not the Senate.

  • Article is new enough, long enough, adequately sourced, neutral, and free from close paraphrasing. A QPQ has been done and verified. Hook is cited inline: I don't have access to the full source so I'm assuming good faith, although the Google Book snippet seems to check out. Should be good to go.
