Author Description

Product Description This volume reproduces a selection of broadcasts by the infamous 'Suara Revolusi Malaya', or 'Voice of Malayan Revolution', based on hitherto classified transcripts of the Internal Security Department (ISD), Singapore. The 'Voice of Malayan Revolution' was an attempt by the Communist Party of Malaya (CPM) to subvert the populations of Malaysia and Singapore and win them over to their revived revolutionary cause through the conduct of a clandestine radio war. From a Chinese military base in Hunan, China, the CPM's underground radio network transmitted under the codename Project 691 and on the airwaves as 'Suara Revolusi Malaya' from 1969 to 1981. The transcripts are supplemented with an introductory essay and extensive chapter introductions. This researcher's edition includes a CD of the original transcripts.
