Description | The author, Mr. Egmond Hake, spent the best part of his life in Malaya and therefore had an unsurpassed knowledge of Malaya and its problems. Malaya, then under British administration, was gradually occupied by the Japanese between December 1941 and February 1942. Though published in 1945, this book was written by the author before the end of the Japanese War. The author presented to the public his conjectures about Japanese-occupied Malaya. He narrated some of the deepest Malayan problems. The growth of latent Malay nationalism and economic friction with the Chinese; the tragic absence of any vital and continuous social intercourse between Europeans and other groups on any scale; the fundamental difficulty of legislating for a country of such a heterogeneous population; the need for a real change of attitude in British administrators and businessmen out there—these are some of the points made by the author, who avoids the commoner truism about a happy country ignorant of racial or economic conflict, basking in the sunshine of British rule. |
