  • Malaysia's Defeat of Armed Communism

    The Second Emergency, 1968-1989

    de Ong Weichong ...
    Series series Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia
    The Malayan Communist Party’s (MCP) decisive defeat in 1960 led many academics and Counterinsurgency (COIN) experts to overlook the resurrection of its armed struggle in 1968.

    Singapore has gained a reputation for being one of the wealthiest and best-educated countries in the world and one of the brightest success stories for a colony-turned-sovereign state, but the country's path to success was anything but assured.
