INTRODUCTION

By 13th February,

 the headquarters of the Group decided that a reconnaissance must be made to discover whether or not the Japanese intended to land on Sumatra.

The position in Singapore was known to be desperate, and it was felt that the enemy would assuredly attempt to extend the range of their conquests.

 A single Hudson from No. 1 Squadron, Royal Australian Air Force, accordingly took off in the afternoon and presently returned with the report that there was a concentration of Japanese shipping north of Banka Island.

 This seemed to show that an invasion of Sumatra was imminent. An unsuccessful night attack by Blenheims in darkness and rain was succeeded at first light on 14th February

by an offensive reconnaissance carried out by five Hudsons. They discovered between twenty-five and thirty transports, heavily escorted by naval vessels and fighter aircraft. The suspected invasion was on the way.

 

The five Hudsons, subsequently reinforced by all available bomber aircraft, delivered a series of attacks upon the convoy and achieved conspicuous success. Six transports were sunk or badly damaged for the loss of seven aircraft.

The squadrons engaged, Nos. 1 and 8 of the Royal Australian Air Force and Nos. 27, 62, 84 and 211 of the Royal air Force, fulfilled their tasks without fighter protection, for the Japanese had staged an attack by parachute troops on P.I, the fighter airfield at Palembang.

The attackers were able to cut the road to the south and west of the airfield and to overpower the meagre ground defences. Wing Commander Maguire, the Station Commander, at the head of twenty men, hastily collected, delivered a counterattack which held off the enemy long enough to make possible the evacuation of the wounded and the unarmed.

He was presently driven back into the area of the control tower, where he held out for some time, short of ammunition and with no food and water, until compelled to withdraw after destroying stocks of petrol and such aircraft as remained.

 

The fighters which should have accompanied the bomber force attacking the convoy belonged to No. 226 (Fighter) Group, formed

on 1st February

The Surrender:

Slowly being pushed back on February 13,

Percival was asked by his senior officers about surrendering. Rebuffing their request, he continued the fight.

The next day,

Japanese troops secured Alexandra Hospital

and massacred around 200 patients and staff.

Early on the morning of February 15,

the Japanese succeeded in breaking through Percival’s lines. This coupled with the exhaustion of the garrison’s anti-aircraft ammunition led

Percival to meet with his commanders

at Fort Canning. During the meeting, Percival proposed two options: an immediate strike at Bukit Timah to regain the supplies and water or surrendering.

Informed by his senior officers that no counterattack was possible, Percival saw little choice other than surrender.

Dispatching a messenger to Yamashita, Percival met with the Japanese commander at

the Ford Motor Factory later that day to discuss terms. T

he formal surrender was completed shortly after 5:15 that evening.

February 15, 1942 –

 Singapore surrenders, when food, water, ammunition, and gasoline are nearly gone. They were taken to the Ford Motor Company assembly plant on the outskirts of Singapore town. Here Lt. General A. E. Percival yielded to Lt. General Tomoyuki Yamashita’s 25th Army.

820 British seaman were lost, while 2,081 were picked up by flotilla destroyers. Of the 88 Japanese planes, only four were shot down.

It is thought that the Naval Base was evacuated, just before the fall of Singapore on February 15, 1942. The Aquarius sailed on February 12/13, 1942 and sunk off the Sumatra coast north of Banka Island by air attack. Three survivors were picked up, but they also died shortly after. Unfortunately, the Aquarius never made its Darwin, Australia, destination. The Aquarius was launched on February 14, 1934, as the R.A.F.A. (Royal Air Force Auxilliary) “Aquarius,” and was an aircraft tender. It arrived originally in Singapore on May 28, 1934. There are many accounts of the Aquarius in various sources, and some accounts are about two U.S.A. ships also named Aquarius. There was a listing for an Aquarius as a U.S. Navy attack cargo ship (AKA 16) of the C2 type commissioned in 1943. However this ship is thought to have been 6094 tons and did not sink. It ended up in the Soviet Union in 1945. One account has the passengers of the ship at 1,000 and while the British vessel carried 60-70 persons. In both cases, it is stated that there were three survivors picked up, who then died shortly thereafter. One account says they were picked up by ML 310s. The same account has the the ship being sunk by a Japanese destroyer near Tjebia Island (off Sumatra) on February 15, 1942.

I originally thought that the Aquarius was the ship that my uncle died on when it sunk. Now I know that Alexander Malcolm died after the sinking of the SS Redang.. The SS Redang was registered in Bangkok, Thailand, to the Siam Steam Navigation Fleet, and was seized by the British government, and was then made part of the Singapore Strait Steamship Company. On February 12, 1942, this ship was attacked by two Japanese destroyers and sunk. Alexander Malcolm and his friend, Tommy Hand, died 50 miles from the Berhala Strait one of many casualties of World War II.

 

DEI troops survivors of the battle of Palembang (Sumatra) 15 Feb 1942 this troops would cease to exist after Battle of Java (march 1942)

they’re known as a KNIL in indonesia, people who try to get a better luck by joining the army rather than live as a poor farmer

on 15th February,

 the day on which the fortress of Singapore surrendered unconditionally, the greatest success up till then scored in the Far Eastern War had been achieved, and achieved by the Royal Air Force and the Royal Australian Air Force. The landing of the enemy at the mouth of the Palembang River had been completely arrested, thousands of his men had been killed or wounded, and his plan of invasion brought temporarily to naught. The action fought that day on the coast of Sumatra shows only too plainly what might have been accomplished on the coasts of Siam and Malaya had an adequate Air Force been available

Sad to say, this highly successful counter-measure had no sequel.

There were no troops or naval craft available to exploit the victory and the reaction of the Japanese was immediate and violent.

They made another parachute troop landing on Palembang airfield and in the neighbourhood of the town. It was successful and its success jeopardized the situation at P.II, the secret airfield, where stocks of food, ammunition and bombs were running very low. Orders were reluctantly given for a retreat to Java.

All aircraft were to fly; their ground staff were to go by ship and to embark at Oesthaven.

 Here occurred an administrative blunder which added to the difficulties of the Air Force and considerably reduced its further capacity for fighting.

The Dutch authorities at the port had already set on fire the bazaar and destroyed all equipment of a military kind.

A dark pall of smoke lay over the town, and beneath it the airmen striving to carry out their orders and to reach Java as quickly as possible found themselves faced with an obstacle created not by the enemy, but by the British Military Embarkation Officer.

He was one of those men to whom an order is as sacred and inflexible as are the Commandments of Sinai. All officers

and men of the ground staff were to be clear of the port by midnight, but they were to leave, so he ordained, without their motor transport or their equipment.

 In other words, they were to reach Java in a condition in which they would be quite unable to take any further part in operations.

To every remonstrance he returned the same answer: those were the orders. It says something for his personality that they were obeyed. No. 41 Air Stores Park left behind them spare Hurricane engines and other urgent stores; so did the Repair and Salvage Unit of No. 266 (Fighter) Wing, and the anti-aircraft guns and ammunition brought away with such difficulty from P.I and P.II were also abandoned.

This departure, in an atmosphere which can only be described as that of panic, was quite unnecessary, for two days later Group Captain Nicholetts at the head of fifty volunteers from No. 605 (Fighter) Squadron, returned to Oesthaven by sea from Batavia in H.M.S. Ballarat of the Royal Australian Navy and spent twelve hours loading the ship to the gunwales with such air force equipment as could by then still be salvaged.

 

With its Royal Dutch Shell oil refineries at nearby Pladju, the city of Palembang in southern Sumatra, Dutch East Indies was a major objective early in the Japanese campaign southwards.

The Allied defenses there consisted of two air groups located in Pangkalan Benteng airfield, also known as P1, and Prabumulih airfield, or P2.

 

The air forces there consisted of the Royal Air Force No. 225 Bomber Group (with two Royal Australian Air Force squadrons) with 40 Blenheim bombers and 35 Hudson light bombers and No. 226 Fighter Group with two squadrons of Hurricane fighters and a number of Hurricane and Buffalo fighters that carried wound from the earlier Malayan and Singapore campaigns.

A few American B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bombers were in Palembang in Jan 1942, but they were withdrawn to Java and Australia before the Japanese invasion.

The ground troops were led by the Royal Netherlands East Indies Army Lieutenant Colonel L. N. W. Vogelesang, with 2,000 troops under his command in the Palembang area, organized in one South Sumatra Garrison Battalion and one home guard Landstorm company in reserve; there were other Dutch troops in other areas of southern Sumatra, but they lacked mobility and played no part in the subsequent Japanese invasion. A few Dutch navy officers were also present, with one minelayer (Pro Patria) and two patrol boats (P-38 and P-40) under their command.

On 13 Feb 1942,

 the Japanese invasion fleet approached southern Sumatra. While the Allied aircraft took off to attack the naval vessels, Japanese Army Ki-56 and Ki-21 transport planes delivered about 160-180 paratroopers and their supplies over P1 airfield and 90 troopers near the Pladju refineries, escorted by a large force of Ki-43 fighters.

The paratroopers failed to take P1 airfield, and another 60 paratroopers were dropped two hours as reinforcements. Those who landed at Pladju gained control of the entire industrial complex without damaging any equipment, though they were driven out after a Landstorm counterattack; the Dutch troops then began a demolition operation to destroy the oil refineries, setting equipment on fire.

By the next morning, unable to hold ground, the Japanese paratroopers advanced to the Musi, Salang, and Telang Rivers, and waited there for the main invasion force to arrive.

The main Japanese invasion force for southern Sumatra was under the command of Japanese Navy Vice Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa. The fleet consisted of the heavy cruiser Chokai, light cruiser Sendai, 8 destroyers, and 22 transports, which held the invasion force of Japanese Army 229th Infantry Regiment and one battalion from the 230th Infantry Regiment.

A covering force sailed in the distance, which was consisted of the carrier Ryujo, four heavy cruisers, one light cruiser, and three destroyers. The invasion fleet was first engaged by British river boat HMS Li Wo, which engaged the much larger Japanese ships with its lone 100-millimeter gun; Li Wo eventually was damaged beyond repair, and rammed into the nearest Japanese transport before being sunk.

 Meanwhile, an Allied fleet consisted of Dutch cruisers De Ruyter, Java, and Tromp, British cruisers Exeter and Hobart, and 10 destroyers attempted to intercept the invasion fleet, but the fleet gave up after being attacked by aircraft from Ryujo and nearby ground bases. As the Japanese landing forces sailed up the river leading up to Palembang, British aircraft based in Sumatra attacked, sinking the transport Otawa Maru.

While the invasion started, an episode of massacre took place nearby.

On 12 Feb

, 330 soldiers, nurses, and civilians commandeered the vessel SS Vyner Brooke and attempted to escape from Singapore.

 

 On 14 Feb,

 the freighter was found by Japanese aircraft off the Bangka Island off southeastern Sumatra, sinking her with three bomb hits. The 90-some survivors of the sinking and the Japanese aircraft strafing made it to Bangka Island’s Radji Beach. In the evening of 14 Feb, all but one civilian women left the group for a local village with their children, leaving the men on the beach with the Australian military nurses.

Shortly after, Japanese soldiers discovered those on the beach, and massacred the men with bayonets. The nurses were marched into the ocean, and when they reached waist-deep water, they were fired upon with rifles. Nurse Vivian Bullwinkel, British Army Private Pat Kingsley, and several other survivors hid in the nearby jungle for several days; Kingsley later died from his bayonet wound. They were eventually found and placed into a prisoners of war camp. Bullwinkel survived the brutal camp treatment and gave evidence against the Japanese at the 1947 war crimes trial in Tokyo.

On 15 Feb,

it was decided that southern Sumatra, with its weak defenses, was to be abandoned. All of the aircraft and some of the personnel were sent to Java, where the Dutch East Indies seat of government was located; remaining personnel were transferred to India. The aerial evacuation was completed by the evening of 16 Feb, while the evacuation by sea did not complete until 20 Feb.

With southern Sumatra evacuated, the 8,000 Dutch reserve troops and 1,200 para-military policemen in northern Sumatra were practically stranded. Lacking adequate transportation, the Dutch were dispersed in small groups. On 8 Mar, they received word of Dutch commander-in-chief General Hein ter Pooten’s surrender in Java on 8 Mar; however, most of them chose to disobey the surrender order.

On 28 Feb 1942,

a sizeable Japanese force set sail from Singapore for northern Sumatra; the force consisted of 27 transports, three cruisers, ten destroyers, and various other smaller vessels, divided in four groups. On 12 Mar, Operation T was launched with landings at Baloeng Bay on Sabang Island, Cape Pedro near Kotaradja airfield, and Iri. The second landing took place at Tandjoengtiram, where the four battalions landed to secure a beach head for the landing of tanks, air groups, and the divisional headquarters. All landings were nearly unopposed as the Dutch lacked the resources to do so.

Indische en buitenlandse zegels
Op Sumatra is een grote verscheidenheid aan zegels en opdrukken gebruikt. In het begin zijn zegels zonder opdruk gebruikt, met uitzondering van zegels die de beeltenis van de koningin droegen, die waren niet toegestaan. Japanse postzegels mochten in alle bezette gebieden gebruikt worden, we komen ze dan ook veel tegen.Vanaf eind september 1942 tot medio april 1943 vormde Sumatra een administratieve eenheid met Malakka, waardoor we veel Japanse bezettingszegels van Malakka tegenkomen. Ook zegels uit andere bezette gebieden, zoals Mandsjoerije komen af en toe voor, meestal met gelegenheidsafstempelingen. De afstempeling bepaalt waar en wanneer de zegels gebruikt zijn.
 
 

 

Lokale en regionale opdrukken
Als snel komen in 1942 de eerste instructies om vooroorlogse postzegels van een opdruk te voorzien. Dit werd zowel lokaal als regionaal gedaan, waardoor meer dan 50 verschillende opdrukken ontstaan. Vele lokale opdrukken kunnen nog verder onderverdeeld worden, zoals de kruisopdrukken van Midden Sumatra, waarvan meer dan 20 subtypen bestaan.Het is bijzonder dat zelfs twee Nederlandse postzegels overdrukt zijn. De grotere postkantoren hadden een voorraad Nederlandse postzegels van 5 en 12½ cent, die meegezonden konden worden naar Nederland om retourpost te frankeren. Als gevolg van de instructie om alle voorradige zegels te overdrukken zijn op sommige postkantoren, zoals bijvoorbeeld Pajakombo, ook Nederlandse zegels overdrukt.
 
 

 

Algemene opdrukken
Eind 1942, begin 1943 zijn semi-algemene opdrukken uitgegeven. Deze zegels werden voorzien van een opdruk Dai Nippon (Groot Japan) of Dai Nippon Yubin (Groot Japan Post). Op 29 april 1943 verschenen zegels van 3½ en 10 cent uit een definitieve serie. Deze werden op 1 augustus 1944 gevolgd door nog 10 waarden. Op 1 januari 1944 verscheen een algemene T-opdruk. De semi-algemene en de T-opdrukken zijn ook aangebracht op zegels die al een opdruk hadden.

Vooroorlogse postwaardestukken en opdrukken
In het begin van de bezetting werden vooroorlogse postwaardestukken zonder opdruk gewoon doorgebruikt, vooral briefkaarten. Vrij snel werden op Sumatra en in het marine gebied postwaardestukken voorzien van opdrukken, meestal dezelfde als bij de postzegels. Niet alleen briefkaarten, maar ook allerlei andere postwaardestukken, zoals internationale brief- en antwoordkaarten, enveloppen, postbladen en verhuiskaarten.
 
 

 

De eerste gedrukte postwaardestukken uit de bezetting
De eerste uitgifte van een nieuwe briefkaart vond in juni 1942 plaats op Celebes. De bekende Dai Nippon briefkaarten van Java verschenen in september 1942 en in mei 1943 kwam een nieuwe briefkaart op Sumatra in omloop. Eind 1943 verscheen er voor Java en Sumatra een gezamelijke uitgifte, een nieuwe 3½ cent Dai Nippon briefkaart in een kleiner formaat om papier te besparen.
 
 

 

Andere nieuwe uitgiften
Op Sumatra zijn er daarna geen nieuwe postwaardestukken meer verschenen, wel op Java en in het marine gebied, zoals een nieuwe verhuiskaart op Java en een definitieve kaart voor het gehele marine gebied.
 
 

 

Tariefsverhogingen
Op 1 juli 1944 werd in het marine gebied het tarief voor een briefkaart verhoogd naar 4 cent. Dit resulteerde in een verscheidenheid aan regionale uitgiften. Een jaar later, op 1 juli 1945, werd het tarief op Java verhoogd naar 5 cent en kwamen ook hier nieuwe kaarten in omloop. Op Sumatra werd het tarief pas op 15 augustus 1945, de dag van de Japanse capitulatie, verhoogd naar 7 cent. Hier zijn geen nieuwe kaarten uitgegeven.
 
 

 

Postwaardestukken van Malakka gebruikt in Indië
In de Riouw en Lingga archipel en op de Anambas Eilanden werden postwaardestukken van Malakka gebruikt, zoals bij de postzegels. Het tarief voor een briefkaart was hier 2 cent, wat later verhoogd werd naar 4 cent. Hier werden ook postwaardestukken gebruikt die we niet uit Nederlands-Indië kennen, zoals de aangetekende enveloppe. Het tarief hiervoor bedroeg 15 cent, tijdens de oorlog werd het verhoogd naar 23 cent.

Algemeen
Het innen van rechten tijdens de Japanse bezetting en de Republikeinse periode ging op dezelfde manier als voor de oorlog. In het algemeen moesten de rechten betaald worden door diegene waarvoor het stuk werd opgemaakt. Dit werd gedaan door fiscaalzegels op de daarvoor bestemde documenten te plakken, zoals plakzegels, loonzegels, handelszegels, enz.
 
 

 

Plakzegels
Plakzegels zijn vooral gebruikt voor de rechten op kwitanties, polissen van verzekeringen, hypotheekakten, wissels, huurcontracten, enz., waarbij het transactiebedrag meer dan f10.00 bedroeg.In het begin zijn vooroorlogse plakzegels doorgebruikt, al snel werden ze overdrukt, meestal met dezelfde opdrukken als de postzegels. Na verloop van tijd werden nieuwe plakzegels enz. in de Maleise en/of Japanse taal gedrukt. Tijdens de Republikeinse periode zijn evenals tijdens de Japanse bezetting zegels zonder opdruk doorgebruikt, vervolgens van een opdruk voorzien en uiteindelijk zijn nieuwe plakzegels enz. gedrukt.
 
 

 

Loonzegels
Loonbelasting was verschuldigd over de lonen die verantwoord werden op speciale loonlijsten. De verschuldigde belasting bedroeg 4% van de lonen die aan werknemers betaald werden en 2% van de lonen van huishoudelijk personeel. De formulieren en loonzegels waren evenals plakzegels op het postkantoor verkrijgbaar. De zegels bestonden uit twee delen, de linker helft werd op de originele loonlijst geplakt, de rechter op een kopie daarvan.
 
 

 

Gezegeld papier
Gezegeld papier werd gebruikt voor notariële akten, uittreksels van overheidsbesluiten, zoals benoemingen en loonsverhogingen, uittreksels uit de burgerlijke stand en registratie van hypotheken bij het kadaster. Het recht werd berekend naar de grootte van het papier. Vooroorlogs gezegeld papier werd doorgebruikt, later voorzien van een opdruk en uiteindelijk werd nieuw papier gedrukt. Tijdens de Republikeinse periode is evenals tijdens de Japanse bezetting het papier zonder opdruk doorgebruikt en vervolgens van een opdruk voorzien. Nieuw papier is niet gedrukt.
 
 

 

Andere belastingen
Andere belastingen, rechten en vergunningen zoals, gemeentebelasting, verkeersbelasting, slachtvergunningen en tabaksbelasting moesten ook voldaan worden

Likely this was one of the Hurricanes flown by the 64th Sentai. Photo was taken at Palembang in 1942, after the airfield was occupied by Kato’s group; those are Japanese ground crews lounging beneath the captured plane. The type is Hurricane IIB

The group was under the command of then-Major Kato Tateo, probably the most famous of the Japanese army’s fighter pilots.

On January 16,

 

on 23rd January

an attack on Palembang by twenty-seven Japanese bombers showed that the main airfield in Sumatra, P.I, could not be adequately protected.

Since the outbreak of the Pacific War in 1941,

Japan and then trying to control natural resources, especially petroleum by attacking and controlling the occupied Dutch East Indies, including Indonesia, which was then known as the best producer of petroleum (Sumatra) where the oil produced can be directly used as fuel ships without having to go through the distillation process first.

 

Beginning in February 1942,

 

Japan started to invade the territory of Sumatra and began putting his patrol boats around the Java Sea, having previously managed to control some areas in Kalimantan and Sulawesi.

 

Then the Japanese overran the oil city of Palembang as a very valuable time

  • on February 13, 1942.

 history records the sinking British ship HMS Li Wo by the Japanese navy when the ship was evacuating troops from Java (another source notes that the ship HMS Li Wo was on his way from Singapore to Batavia when ditengeelamkan).

 

February 1942 closed with the outbreak of War of the Java Sea, where the Allied navy joined in ABDACOM (American-British-Dutch-Australian Command) was defeated by the Japanese navy. Dutch East Indies government surrendered unconditionally and surrender its colonies of Indonesia to Japan through Kalijati Agreement on March 8, 1942.

The Sinking of HMS ‘Li-Wo’

Introduction

On Wednesday 6th March 2002 I visited my niece in Cardiff. Quite casually, she handed me an A4 brown envelope saying that her grandfather (and my father) had given it to her a few years before he died. Inside, I found a 24 page photocopied letter, penned by my father, to the Imperial War Museum about the sinking of HMS ‘Li Wo’.

I have reproduced the letter below exactly as it was written.

Moyra Jones 7th March 2002


The Director

Sunday 30/8/64

 

Dear Sir,

On the 14th August, this year, I visited London with my Daughter and Nephew, and took them to The Imperial War Museum.

It was a surprise, and a proud moment, and a sad one, when I saw the scale Model of H.M.S. “Li-Woo” (sic), as I am one of the few survivors of the short but epic action, North of the Banka Straits, on Sat 14th February 1942.

I feel that I must write to you, correcting much of the information about the Ship and the action that took place, between H.M.S “Li-Woo”, and a Japanese convoy and Japanese Naval Escorts.

I commented to one of the Attendants on duty, that the facts were wrong, and was advised by him, to see the Records in the Records Department, of which I did.

Which of course, after seeing them, decided to write to you, hoping most sincerely, that you will investigate most fully, the facts I intend to give.

Before I give any account, I wish to make it perfectly clear, that I seek no glory, I seek no financial gain, and I seek no publicity.

My object and reason is purely and simply this.

Ever since 5-30 P.M. Saturday 14th 1942. I have honoured and admired the memory of the Bravest Man I ever knew.

Lt. Wilkinson V.C. R.N.

This is the first time I have written to anyone about this action, as until that visit to the Imperial War Museum, I was always under the impression that the true real facts were fully known.

I wonder how many of the gun’s crew, who composed of “Prince of Wales”, and “Repulse” survivors were interviewed? Or interrogated over this action? I also wish to add, that I was never asked for an account of the action after the war had ended, and the reason why I was unable to give an account during my 3 1/2 years as a Japanese P.O.W. was simply this:-

When I was first taken P.O.W. the survivors of the “Li-Woo” were in a tempory P.O.W. Camp at Muntok, in Banka Island, with Army, Navy, R.A.F. personel, and with many civilians, of which there were many children.

I was only at that Camp, which had no real British Military Administration for a week at the most, when I escaped with Lt. Col. Daly of Dal Force Malaya, Lt. Eno, Army, Sgt. Ken Wharton, Australian Army, only to be eventually betrayed by Natives, and handed over to the Japanese, when we landed at Java.

During my captivity, the Japs never knew that we were recaptured P.O.W.s.

I deemed that discretion was the better of Valour.

I could not mention the “Li-Woo” action North of the Banka Straits, without giving myself away that I was an escaped P.O.W.

The punishment was death.

Also we were mixed with many Dutch, and Dutch Eurasians, many of the Eurasians were Pro-Jap, and would give away their own Mother.

Here now is the facts as I know them, nothing added, nothing exaggerated.

After being sunk on the “Prince of Wales” I was sent up into Malaya with:-

C.P.O. Rogers “Repulse”

Ldg/Smn Adly(sic) “Repulse”

Ldg/Smn Bennett “Repulse”

Ldg Smn Countant “Prince of Wales”.

I need not bother you about details, as it is non revelant to the “Li-Woo”, except this.

After returning to Singapore from Malaya, we were detailed to patrol the Jahore Straits in small boats. We operated from a small village opposite Paula Ubin Island.

We were recalled from there to the Orange Hotel, Thursday afternoon 12th Feb 1942.

We were then detailed to go aboard the “Li-Woo” to sail for Java.

On arrival aboard, we were detailed as Guns Crew, being that the others were Torpedo ratings, and C.P.O Rogers, a Rangetaker, I was appointed Gun Layer.

My Guns crew consisted of C.P.O Rogers, Ldg/Smn Adley, Bennett Countant, and two stoker ratings who were with us in the Jahore Straits Patrol.

We left Singapore Harbour late Thursday night Feb 12th 1942 only to drop anchor outside the Harbour.

On Friday 13th Feb 1942 we sailed for Java with the “Fu Woo” a sister ship. We were attacked many times by aircraft, and came through.

On Sat 14th Feb 1942 we dropped anchor close inshore, we were informed that we were anchoring for a while, trusting to luck that we would not be spotted by enemy aircraft, as the Captain intended to go through the 80 miles of the Banka Straits in darkness.

We were spotted by a Jap seaplane just had we got under way again.

Between 4-30. 5-0 P.M we sighted smoke on the horizon off the Port Bow. It was a convoy.

Lt Wilkingson (sic) asked if anyone could recognise if any of the warships were Jap.

Informed him that I had served two years on the China Station, 1936-1938 and was familiar with Jap warships.

He told me to come to the bridge, and then handed me his telescope.

I saw one Jap light cruiser and two Jap destroyers, without looking for any more, I told him they were Japanese.

He then asked me if I had any doubt, I told him “none whatever”.

The convoy was about 10 mile away, and I was told to report back to the gun.

Captain Wilkingson’s words to us was this:-

“A Jap convoy is ahead, I am going to attack it, we will take as many of those Jap Bastards, as possible, with us.

Those words I will never forget, they have always been fixed clearly in my mind.

I returned to the gun, AND I CHECKED THE AMMUNITION, AND REPORTED IT FROM THE GUN, TO CAPTAIN WILKINGSON.

My report to him was this.

SIX SEM-ARMOUR PIERCING SHELLS.

FOUR GRAZE FUSE SHELLS.

THREE A.A. SHELLS.

He replied :- “Gunlayer, is that all the ammunition you have”?

I answered :- “Yes Sir”, thirteen shells in all, plus three practice shell.”

How or why 13 practice shells came into it, I don’t know, all I can assume is this.

Possibly, it was because for most of the crew, it was their first taste of action, and I know the effect it has on many.

Admitted there was thrteen shells, but they were 6. S.A.P. 4 GRAZE FUSE and 3. A.A.

I do not class a practice shell as shell for action.

Do you think that I can ever forget that moment.

The hopelessness of knowing that I had only six shells that could do any damage, and realising that two shells would probably be wasted before we found the range and target.

The “Li Woo’s” Gunnery Officer joined us, Captain Wilkinson’s name is the only one I remember.

The Gunnery Officer was Ginger headed, I believe he was a New Zealander.

I had a hurried conference with him, and said to him :-

“Look Sir, I have only six shells that can do any damage, four that can do harm if we fire at the super structure as anti personel shells, then our last hope is to set the A.A. shells at Fuse 2 and hope for the best.”

I also pointed out, that unless we were lucky with our first shot, as all we had was “Gunlayers Control”, “Gunlayers Firing”, with no range Finder and no Inclanometre to help, we might waste two shells at least, before we were on target, should we use the practice shells as our ranging shots?”

He paused for a moment, then replied: “it might be a good idea, but then again it might not, as if we can get in close enough, and we find our target, it is a wasted effort.” I received the order to load with S.A.P.

Approx. half an hour later we engaged the enemy.

Our selected target was a transport of between four to five thousand tons.

At an estimated range of four thousand yards, deflection six left, we opened fire.

The first shell was over target.

I ordered, “Fixed Sight, Rapid Salvos.” I know that at least three of our remaining five S.A.P. shells, were bang on target, as fire broke out on her immediately.

Soon she was blazing furiously. In less than two minutes our ammunition was expended.

Captain Wilkinson selected another target, the ship nearest to him, about 800 tons and deliberately rammed and sank it.

We were now among the Jap convoy, helpless, drifting, and no ammo.

I will never forget another hero of this action, a man unknown, unsung, unpraised.

An R.A.F. sargeant who manned the Vickers Lewis Gun, from the time the ship left Singapore, to when the “Li Woo” sank.

It was his deadly accurate fire, that wipe (sic) out the four man gun’s crew aboard the Jap transport we rammed.

The enemy’s gun was about 30 to 40 M.Metre. It was this gun that caused our first casualties.

I myself was wounded in the chest. The R.A.F. Sargent then swept the bridge and decks with his deadly fire, killing many.

He then opened up on another transport about 200 yards away.

The Jap convoy cleared away from us, and we came under fire from the Jap warships.

It was a fearful experience as it took the Japs five to ten minutes to find our range, their gunnery was lousy, and the noise of their shells whistling overhead, always expecting the next one to land inboard, knowing that we had to just sit there and take it, and and the helplessness of not being able to do anything about it.

When they eventually found our range, it was all over.

The “Li-Woo” listed to Starboard and sank stern first.

When we survivors were swimming in the water, the Japs transports closed in. I myself was on one of two rafts which for safety we had tied together. The transports came towards us, and picked up their own survivors, we were then under the impression when they came slowly at us that they were going to pick us up as well.

But we were in for a shock. They came right at us and deliberately rammed us but we realise just before, what their intentions were, and hastily dived into the sea.

With my own eyes, and there are times when the memory of it is most vivid, I saw that transport go among a group of survivors, and mamouver amongst them with churning screws, killing at least a dozen.

It was only the sudden darkness that saved us.

We succeeded in regaining the rafts, and all night we could see the transport we set on fire blazing fiercely.

The following afternoon,

Sunday 15th Feb

 we were picked up by other survivors who were in a boat, with a sail and oars.

It was badly holed, and the gunwales was four inches above the water.

It was only its buoyancy tanks keeping it afloat.

Just after sunrise on Monday

100 additional Japanese paratroopers arrived at Palembang, Sumatra, Dutch East Indies, helping with the securing oil refineries and other facilities. 200 kilometers to the south, British troop transport Ocrades arrives at Oosthaven with 3,400 Australian troops, but the ship would continue on to Java without disembarking the troops. North of Palembang, Japanese troops disembarked at the mouth of the Musi River; the British RAF interfered by attacking the landing with over 50 aircraft, sinking 20 landing craft and killing 100 Japanese. Finally, in the Bangka Strait, Japanese naval gunfire sank British tug HMS Yin Ping; 50 were killed, 25 survived17 Feb 1942

 

16th Feb, 1942,

we were washed ashore.

My shipmate C.P.O Rogers was in the sailing boat.

We seemed to separate in groups, just aimlessly walking around the Island, there were four of us in the group I was in, C.P.O Rogers was one of them.

Late that afternoon we ran into a Jap patrol and was taken prisioner.

A few days later I met L/Smn Adley, and Bennett, they also had run into a Jap patrol, but were not so fortunate as we were.

The Jap patrol opened fire on them, L/Smn Adley was shot in the arm, and Ldg/ Smn Bennett was bayonetted.

That is my story, nothing added, nothing exaggerated.

My one intention, and the only reason why I have written this down, is that the facts should be known, in fact must be known to all, the courage and bravery, and the great achievement accomplished by Lt. Wilkingson V.C. of H.M.S Li-Woo, on Saturday 14th February 1942, against tremendous odds.

I was on the gun deck, during the short journey from Singapore to the end of the “Li-Woo”.

I was the Gunlayer. I will state most emphatically, that to the best of my knowledge, there was no member of the “Li-Woo s” original crew, a member of that gun’s crew.

How can a practise shell cause a transport vessel to burst into flames?

Sunday afternoon we could see her, an abandoned, floating, blackened wreck, smoking slightly.

Do you think it possible?

I will willingly travel to London and undergo any interrogation you wish to put me through. But please, I beg of you, please see that “Lt. Wilkingson V.C. gets the credit that is due to him.

Is this too much to ask, for a man who made the Supreme Sacrifice, and who won the Highest Award that his Country could bestow upon him?

It was my intention after seeing the model of the “Li-Woo” to get in touch with C.P.O. Rogers. I believe that he resides at Bristol, but for the time being, I have decided against it, so that you can have the opportunity to check my story, without any collusion between C.P.O. Rogers or any one else, with me.

I swear to you on oath, that since the war ended, I have not seen or communicated with any of the “Li-Woo” survivors.

There is a lot more details, small ones, that I can give you, but, my aim is, as I have stated previously, Let “Lt Wilkingson V.C. have the just credit due to him, and the facts put right.

Yours sincerely,

that

LEADING SEAMAN THOMAS HENRY PARSONS D/JX 143539

On the 14th February 1942

took part in the action when his Majesty’s Patrol Ship

LI-WO whilst on patrol duty off Singapore, gallantly

engaged the superior forces of the enemy, inflicting

significant damage on a convoy of troopships before being

sunk by a Japanese cruiser. The heroism and self sacrifice

of the many who died and the few who survived were in the

highest traditions of the Royal Navy.

February,17th.1942

Japanese carrier aircraft from Ryujo sank Dutch destroyer HMNS Van Nes, escorting Dutch troopship Sloet van Beele, in the Bangka Strait; 69 were killed, 60 survived

By 18th February,

 the evacuation from Sumatra to Java of air force pilots and ground staff had been completed and more than 10,000 men belonging to different units, and in a great state of confusion, had arrived in the island.

To add to the difficulties of the situation, the civilians in Java, who up till the landing of the Japanese on Singapore Island had shown calmness and confidence, now began to give way to despair and were soon crowding on to any vessel they could find which would take them away from a country they regarded as lost.

The confusion brought about by the mass of outgoing refugees and incoming reinforcements is more easily imagined than described, and the scenes enacted a few days before in Singapore were reproduced on an even larger scale in Batavia. Equipment, motor transport, abandoned cars, goods of every size, description and quality, littered its choked quays, and still troops and air force ground staff poured in, hungry, disorganized and, for the moment, useless. Inevitably their spirits and discipline suffered, and the climax was reached when it became necessary to disband one half-trained unit.

These few were the only men for whom the burden proved insupportable. The rest rose gallantly to their hopeless task and under the stimulus of Air Vice-Marshal Maltby and Air Commodore W. E. Staton, overcame the chaotic circumstances of their lot and in less than twelve days were ready to renew a hopeless contest.

The fighter strength available had, by the 18th, been reduced to twenty-five Hurricanes, of which eighteen were serviceable.

The bomber and reconnaissance squadrons were in equally desperate case. At Semplak airfield, twelve Hudsons, and at Kalidjati, six Blenheims, sought to sustain the war. Behind them, No. 153 Maintenance Unit and No. 81 Repair and Salvage Unit, together with No. 41 Air Stores Park, did what they could to provide and maintain a ground organization. On 19th February all the Blenheims available, to the number of five, attacked Japanese shipping at Palembang in Sumatra, and this attack was repeated

 on the 20th and 21st,

a 10,000 ton ship being set on fire.

On the 19th and 22ndFebruary 1942

 the Japanese delivered two ripostes at Semplak which proved fatal. Of the dwindling force of bomber aircraft, fifteen were destroyed. Yet even after this crushing blow the Air Force still had some sting

 left. On 23rd February,

 three Blenheims claimed to have sunk a Japanese submarine off the coast.

By then the hopes originally entertained by Wavell and the Chiefs of Staff in London of building up the strength of the Allies in Java had been abandoned; Supreme Allied Headquarters had left the island and handed over to the Dutch Command, to which henceforward the remains of the Air Force looked for guidance and orders.

They came from General ter Poorten, who had as his Chief of Air Staff, Major General van Oyen. Under the swiftly developing menace of invasion, these officers, with Maltby and General H. D. W. Sitwell, made what preparations they could to maintain the defence. Despite the encouraging messages which they received about this time from the Prime Minister, the Secretary of State for Air and the Chief of the Air Staff, Maltby and Sitwell knew that no help from the outside could be expected for a long time.

General ter Poorten had under him some 25,000 regular troops backed up by a poorly armed militia numbering 40,000. Sitwell could count only upon a small number of British troops, two Australian infantry battalions, four squadrons of light tanks and three antiaircraft regiments, of which the 21st Light accounted for some thirty Japanese aircraft before the end came. On the sea, Admiral Dorman commanded a small mixed force of which the main units were a British, an Australian, an American and two Dutch cruisers.

No breathing space for the organization of these inadequate and ill-armed forces was afforded by the enemy.

 

On 26th February,

 a Japanese convoy, numbering more than fifty transports with a strong naval escort, was discovered by air reconnaissance to be moving through the Macassar Strait southwards towards the Java Sea.

On the next day, Admiral Dorman put out to meet it. Hopelessly outgunned and outnumbered he fought a most gallant action and lost his entire fleet, a sacrifice which secured a respite of twenty-four hours. Subsequent to the naval battle the Air Force attacked twenty-eight ships of the convoy eventually found north of Rembang

by No. 1 Squadron, Royal Australian Air Force,

 being close to the runway, were taken off under fire and reached a nearby airfield at Andir. Kalidjati had fallen; a small ground defence party composed of Army and Air Force officers and men, ably supported by the local Dutch defence force, fought with great gallantry to defend it and died to the last man.

Their efforts were, however, of no avail, for they had been surprised by the swift move of the Japanese who, after landing at Eretanwetan in the early hours of that morning, had encountered no opposition on the ground either on the beaches or at the various strong points covering the river crossings.

The fact was that by then conditions in Java were too confused and desperate to make further defence anything but local and spasmodic.

Nevertheless the Air Force struggled on for a few more days. Nos. 232 and 605 (Fighter) Squadrons had remained in action from

the 17th to 27th February

 doing their utmost to conduct the air defence of Batavia. The normal odds which they were required to meet were about ten to one and they had little warning of the approach of enemy aircraft.

Their task would have been eased and might, perhaps, have been successfully accomplished had they received as reinforcements the P.40 fighters carried on the U.S. aircraft carrier Langley.

 After considerable delays this ship had been ordered to sail for the Javanese port of Tjilitjap. She set out on what was a forlorn hope and as soon as she came within range of Japanese bomber and torpedo aircraft based on Kendari in the Celebes, she was attacked and sunk.

By noon on 28th February

the total strength of the fighters was less than that of a single squadron, but still the hopeless fight continued. It was decided to retain No. 232 Squadron, under the command of Squadron Leader Brooker, since all its pilots and ground staff had volunteered to remain in Java. Vacancies were filled by volunteers from No. 605 and on 1st March the reconstructed squadron, in the company of ten Dutch Kittyhawks and six Dutch Buffalos, all that remained of a most gallant and skilled Air Force which had been in constant action

on the night of the 28th February.

 It was in this action, in which a small force of American Fortresses took part, that Squadron Leader Wilkins, the outstanding commander of No. 36 Squadron, was killed. The squadron claimed to have sunk eight ships; the Americans, seven.

Feb-March, 1942: HMAS BURNIE – last ship to leave Sumatra, second last to leave Java. Photostream acquisition.

4238. Built at Mort’s Dock, Balmain [Sydney] on the British Admiralty’s account, and commissioned on April 10, 1941, HMAS BURNIE had been one of the small and gallant band of RAN corvettes that remained behind to pick up rearguards and stragglers as the Dutch East Indies fell to the advancing might of Japan in early 1942.

With powerful Japanese units all around them, they and a group of Dutch ships, including the minesweeper ABRAHAM CRIJNSSEN see pic Nos 985-6], had run the gauntlet of the circling enemy to safely reach Australia, an escape that the sloop HMAS YARRA and two her convoy charges [see preceding entry] had tragically failed to make. Pic NO. 985, showing ABRAHAM CRIJNSSEN disguising herself with vegeatation as an island, is here:

From Feb. 18-20, 1942

during the evacuation of Sumatra, HMAS BURNIE had stood off Oosthaven where, after laying demolition charges, she had embarked the rearguards and taken them to Tanjong Priok. She was the last Allied ship to leave Sumatra. On the way out at Java Head she and HMAS BENDIGO rescued survivors from the torpedoed Dutch ship BOERO and carried them to Tjilatjap.

Subsequently, with Commodore John Collins, RAN, and the former captain of HMS PRINCE OF WALES, Captain Leonard Bell, RN, embarked, BURNIE was also, with HMAS BALLARAT, one of the last two ships to get out of Java [see preceding entries]. BALLARAT had turned back to scuttle the small and unserviceable British minesweeper HMS GEMAS that had turned up just as they were leaving Harbour, and embarked her crew. Thus BALLARAT became to last ship to leave Java.

BURNIE was later with the British pacific Fleet at Okinawa. After the war, moving to Royal Navy control in 1946, she was sold to the Royal Netherlands Navy, and was re-named CERAM. She was finally decommissioned in 1958.

a Dutch ship called the SS Rooseboom that sailed from Padang on the island of Java 

on 26th February 1942,

 bound for Columbo in what was then Ceylon. Padang was, at that time, the last port on the official escape route for Allied troops and civilians from Singapore and Malaya.

THE CAMPAIGN IN JAVA AND SUMATRA, FEBRUARY – MARCH 1942

On 1 March 1942 at 11.35pm the Rooseboom was steaming west of Sumatra

 

On 1 March 1942 at 11.35pm

 the Rooseboom was steaming west of Sumatra when it was spotted by the Japanese submarine I-59 and torpedoed. It capsized and sank rapidly leaving one life boat (designed to hold 28) and 135 people in the water. 80 people were in the lifeboat the rest clung to flotsam or floated in the sea. Two of these survivors, one of whom was a Corporal Walter Gibson, were picked up nine days later by the Dutch freighter Palopo. Until the end of the Second World War they were assumed to be the only survivors. Sadly, Robert Kingshott did not survive and his body was never recovered. The reason that I mention Walter Gibson, is that he wrote an account of his survival which demonstrates the conditions he, and others, endured in the days following the sinking.

 

According to Gibson in and around the lifeboat were an estimated 135 survivors, many with injuries, including Gibson himself who was in the lifeboat due to those injuries. By the time the boat had drifted for more than 1,000 miles, to ground on a coral reef, less than 100 miles from Padang, Rooseboom’s starting point, only five of its 80 passengers remained alive, and one of those drowned in the surf while trying to land.

 

In Gibson’s account the ordeal that followed the sinking showed the worst of human nature under some of the most extreme conditions. On the first night many of those in the water drowned or gave up. Some twenty men built a raft from flotsam and towed it behind the boat. The raft slowly sank and all twenty perished three days later. In the first few days discipline collapsed men and women went mad with thirst, some drinking sea water which sent them into hallucinations. Many threw themselves overboard rather than face further suffering, and a gang of five renegade soldiers positioned themselves in the bows and at night systematically pushed the weaker survivors overboard to make the meagre rations go further. Gibson claims to have organized an attack on the renegades with a group of others who rushed them and pushed them en masse into the sea. Brigadier Paris died, hallucinating before he fell into his final coma. The Dutch captain was killed by one of his own engineers. Towards the end Gibson realized that all who remained alive were himself, another white man, a Chinese girl named Doris Lin (who turned out to be a secret agent for the British) and four Javanese seamen. That night the Javanese attacked the other white man and started to eat him alive. Later the oldest Javanese died.

 

The lifeboat eventually landed on Sipora, an island off Sumatra and only 100 miles from Padang, where the Rooseboom started its journey 30 days earlier. One of the Javanese seaman drowned in the surf whilst the other two disappeared into the jungle and have never been found. After a period of being treated by some of the local population Doris Lin and Gibson were discovered by a Japanese patrol. Gibson was returned to Padang as a prisoner of war while Lin was shot as a spy soon afterwards. 

 

It is not clear at what point Robert died, but I would hope that his death was quick and as painless as possible.

On the 1st March 1942 she was scuttled on the coast of Madura oppositeon march ist at the coast madura

By 1st March1942,

 the position became clear enough after the confusion of the previous two days. The convoy which No. 36 Squadron had attacked was one of three all making for Java. What remained of the Blenheims and Hudsons after the bombing of Semplak, took off from Kalidjati whither they had been transferred, and did their best to interfere with the Japanese landing at Eretanwetan, some eighty miles from Batavia.

They went in again and again, some pilots being able to make three sorties, and accounted for at least three and possibly eight ships, but they could not prevent the landing.

By dawn on 1st March

the bomber crews, who had operated almost without a break for thirty-six hours, were approaching the limit of endurance.

 Hardly had they dispersed, however, to seek the rest which had at last been given them, when the Dutch squadrons sharing their airfield left without notice.

The Dutch aircraft had just disappeared into the clear morning air when a squadron of Japanese light tanks, supported by lorry-borne infantry, made their appearance.

 The exhausted pilots of No. 84 Squadron, who had by then reached their billets eight miles away, had no time to return to their aircraft, which were in consequence all destroyed or captured; but the last four Hudsons possessed

beside the Royal Air Force, attacked the Japanese, who were engaged on two new landings begun that night at Eretanwetan.

 Despite intense anti-aircraft fire, twelve Hurricanes went in low and inflicted heavy losses on Japanese troops in barges and set on fire six small sloops and three tanks. They also caused a certain number of casualties and a certain amount of damage to the Japanese troops going ashore at another point on the west coast of Java.

Though the Royal Air Force could hamper the landings and increase their cost in terms of casualties, they could not prevent them, and the next day saw the Hurricanes pinned to their airfield at Tjililitan, whence they were withdrawn with some difficulty to Andir, near Bandoeng. During the withdrawal they maintained a running fight with Japanese fighters.

The last remnants of the Air Force maintained the fight for another three days, attacking the newly captured airfield at Kalidjati

Robert is recorded as dying “at sea”

 on 2nd March 1942.

Robert William George Kingshott was a Warrant Officer Class II with 7 Coast Regiment, Royal Artillery. His service number was 840146.

 

 

on the nights of the 3rd, 4th and 5th March.

These assaults were made by the remaining Vildebeests of No. 36 (Torpedo Bomber) Squadron, of which only two were serviceable when the end came. On the morning of the 6th, they were ordered to seek the dubious safety of Burma, but both crashed in Sumatra and were lost. At the same time the gallant remnant of No. 1 Squadron, Royal Australian Air Force, took its three remaining Hudsons to Australia.

In Java, as in Malaya, the attitude of the local white population contributed in no small measure to the swift and overwhelming disaster. The feelings of the Dutch in Java can best be described as those of confused despair.

The island on which they lived and from which they drew the source of their great wealth had been at peace for many generations.

Now, the prospect of the destruction by fire and high explosive of all that had been built up and handed on to them from the past stared them in the face and their hearts misgave them. If any great show of resistance were to be made, Surabaya and Bandoeng would burn.

Why then make it, when the chances of success were infinitesimal? When it is remembered that the chief Far Eastern bastion of an ally far stronger than they were had fallen after a bare fortnight’s siege, their attitude is understandable.

 It was, however, responsible for the grim scenes which were enacted during the last few hours of resistance. ‘I was in command that morning’, records an officer of the Royal Air Force writing of the events of the last day, ‘of a big convoy with all the remaining spare arms, ammunition and such-like equipment of the Royal Air Force in Java. We practically had to fight our way through the mess to prevent the lorries being forcibly stopped, and get them, according to our orders, up on to the hill roads where we understood—poor mutts—that at last we would have another go at the Nips’.

The surrender of Java was thus a foregone conclusion as soon as the Japanese had set firm foot upon the island.

Nevertheless it took place in circumstances which, to say the least of it, showed little consideration towards the armed forces, ill-armed and ill-prepared though they were.

On 5th March,

 ter Poorten convened a conference in Bandoeng which was attended, amongst others, by Maltby and the Army Commander, Sitwell. At this meeting, the Dutch Commander-in-Chief painted a picture of the situation which could not  have been more gloomy.

 Bandoeng, he said, might fall at any moment, and if its outer defences were pierced, he did not propose to defend the town.

 The native Indonesians were very hostile to the Dutch and this hostility made it quite impossible to retire to the hills and there carry on a guerilla war. Nevertheless, though he himself was prepared to surrender, he would, he said, issue orders to the local Dutch commanders to maintain the fight.

He had, he averred, instructed his troops not only to do so, but also to disregard any order which he might be compelled to issue calling upon them to lay down their arms.

 In the event, when discussing the final terms of surrender with General Maruyama, the Japanese Commander-in-Chief, the Dutch Commander subsequently withdrew this order to disobey orders.

The attitude of ter Poorten does not seem to have been shared by General Schilling, commanding at Batavia, who was prepared to emulate the selfless gallantry of Admiral Dorman, but who did not possess enough weight to influence the general situation.

 After some discussion, the Dutch Commander-in-Chief was induced to name an area north of Santosa as the spot where British forces should concentrate for a final stand, but he made no secret of his opinion that to do so would be folly or worse.

That grim evening, therefore, Maltby and Sitwell were brought face to face with the imminence of disaster. One slender hope remained. General Schilling, who had not been present at the conference, was understood to favour a retreat to the hills in south-west Java whither, it was said, he had already been able to transfer a certain quantity of stores and ammunition with the courageous intention of prolonging resistance.

Hardly had this faint flame been kindled, when it expired. Ter Poorten made any such move impossible by making Schilling responsible for the defence of Bandoeng while at the same time issuing orders that it was not to be defended, and forbidding any further fighting.

The two British officers took what counsel they could together. The surrender of some of those under their command, those for example at the airfield of Andir, was inevitable.

Andir was part of Bandoeng which had been declared an open town, and the officers and other ranks at Poerwokerta had neither rations nor arms. Their position was, in the circumstances, hopeless. For the rest, Santosa seemed to offer the only chance but, when reconnoitred, it was found to be quite unsuitable for defence and to be inhabited by Dutchmen who had obviously no intention of continuing the struggle.

Throughout this confused period, matters were further complicated by the efforts made to evacuate as many men of the Royal Air Force as could be got away. They left from Poerwokerta, priority of passage being accorded to aircrews and technical staff.

 

 By 5th March

seven out of twelve thousand had been taken off, but by then no more ships were available for they had all been sunk and about 2,500 of the air force awaiting evacuation were therefore left stranded in the transit camp.

In these attempts to send away as many skilled men as possible the Dutch gave but little help.

They could not be brought to realize that our airmen were quite unpractised as soldiers and would be of far greater value playing their part as trained members of an aircrew or as technicians on the ground, in some other theatre of war, than they would be trying, without arms or food, to stage a last stand.

Santosa being unsuitable, about 8,000 mixed English and Australian forces, of whom some 1,300 belonged to the Royal Air Force, were concentrated at Garoet; here, too, the Dutch District Civil Administrator, Koffman, proved unsympathetic.

 He feared what he described as ‘a massacre of the whites’ if any guerrilla warfare were attempted, and made no effort to collect supplies or to give any aid to the British forces which had so inconveniently arrived in his district. They were by then in a sorry plight and by then, too, the last embers of resistance in the air had expired.

 

 By 7th March,

 only two undamaged Hurricanes were left and on that day these, the last representatives of a fighter force which, during the campaign in Sumatra and Java, had accounted for about forty aircraft, their own losses amounting to half as much again, were destroyed.

On the next day, 8th, Match 1942

came the inevitable climax. About 9 a.m., to their great astonishment, the British commanders received a translation of a broadcast, made an hour previously by ter Poorten, in which he said that all organized resistance in Java had ceased, and that the troops under his command were no longer to continue the fight.

The Dutch land forces, in striking contrast to their Navy and Air Force, had capitulated almost without a struggle. They felt themselves to be no match for the Japanese.

This broadcast revoked all previous decisions and was ter Poorten’s final word. Maltby and Sitwell were placed in an impossible position.

 A decision of decisive import had been taken and promulgated without reference to them.

If, however, they decided to disregard it, their troops, should they continue the struggle, would, under international law, be subject to summary execution when captured. They had few arms, and what there were, were in the hands of men untrained to them; they were surrounded by a hostile native populace, with little food and, for drinking, they had nothing but contaminated water.

 In such conditions and with medicine-chests empty, they were in no state to carry on the fight. Moreover their whereabouts and intentions were well known to the enemy.

 In these circumstances, the two commanders had no alternative but to comply with the Dutch Commander-in-Chief’s order to surrender. Four days later they negotiated terms with the Japanese commander in Bandoeng, Lieutenant General Maruyama. He undertook to treat all prisoners in accordance with the terms of the Geneva Convention of 1929.

How they subsequently fared can be gathered from a description of the arrival in Batavia two years later of a contingent which had been sent to one of the numerous islands of the Malayan archipelago, there to work on airfields.

 It has been set down by a squadron leader, once a Member of Parliament, who survived the horrors of Java, horrors which were repeated in Malaya, in Siam, in Korea, in Japan—anywhere where the Japanese were in control of unarmed and defenceless men—and is one of the few printable pages of a diary kept intermittently during his captivity and hidden from his gaolers:

Of all the sights thatI would like to forget [he writes]I think I would put first some of these returning island drafts being driven into Batavia . . . Imagine a series of barbed wire compounds in the dark with ourselves a gathering furtive stream of all races East and West, in every kind of clothing or none; here an old tunic in rags with a pair of cut down pyjama trousers, there a blanketed shivering malaria case or someone with night-blindness groping along with a stick, blundering over gypsy bundles of still sleeping prisoners.

 At the side runs a camp road with one high floodlight and all of us waiting to see if any of our friends have made the grade and returned.

At last a long procession of stooping figures creeps down the road with jabbering Nips cracking at their shins with a rifle or the flat of a sword. Most of them half naked, and they leading those going blind with pellagra.

Others shambling along with their feet bound up in lousy rags over tropical sores (not our little things an inch across but real horrors), legs swollen up or half paralysed with beri-beri, enormous eyes fallen into yellow crumpled faces like aged gnomes.

 And then a search—God knows what for after months in a desert and weeks at sea. Some Jap would rush up and down hurling anything any of them still possessed all over the place, while as sure as the clock, the dreadful hopeless rain would begin again like a lunatic helplessly fouling his bed.

 Everything swilling into the filthy racing storm gutters; men trying to reach out and rescue a bit of kit and being picked up and hurled bodily back into the ranks; others clutching hold of a wife’s photo or suchlike souvenir of home, small hope for the Nips always liked pinching and being obscene about a woman’s picture.

And at last after two or three hours when everyone was soaking and shivering with cold, the dreary, hunted column would crawl down the road out of the patch of light where the great atlas moths disputed with the bats, away into an isolation compound, with no light, no food, no knowledge of where to find a tap or latrine, with wet bedding or none at all.

The Nips would disappear laughing and cackling back to bed, we faded away to our floor space and all was quiet again; and the evening or the morning was the eight or nine hundredth day and God no doubt saw that it was good.

In few respects does a nation show itself in its true colours more clearly than in its treatment of enemies who have the misfortune to fall into its hands.

 To describe as bestial the behaviour of the Japanese towards their prisoners of war of whatever race or rank is an insult to the animal world.

Of the thousands of Royal Air Force and Royal Australian Air Force officers and airmen who fell into Japanese hands in Malaya, Sumatra, Java and later Burma, 3,462 only were found alive, after due retribution had fallen from the skies above Hiroshima upon the sons of Nippon.

Not by any means all the Air Force was captured in Java. Some, as has been related, were successfully taken by ship to Australia, and a small number to Ceylon. By a combination of good fortune and stern courage a still smaller number escaped.

 Of these, the most remarkable was Wing Commander J. R. Jeudwine, commanding No. 84 Squadron, which it will be recalled lost the last of its Blenheims at the capture of Kalidjati.

Such pilots and ground staff as remained had been sent to the port of Tjilitjap, there to be taken by ship to Australia.

 No ship, however, was forthcoming; the port was in flames, and the ‘Scorpion’, the only seaworthy vessel to be found, was a ship’s lifeboat capable of holding at most twelve.

To try to avoid capture by taking to the woods and jungles near the shore there to await rescue by submarine offered a slender chance.

To seek that help in an open boat seemed certain death. Jeudwine and ten others chose this course and boarded the ‘Scorpion’. Flying Officer C. P. L. Streatfield alone knew the elements of sailing; Pilot Officer S. G. Turner could handle a sextant and was chosen as navigator; the remainder of the crew was made up of another officer and seven Australian sergeants.

On the evening of 7th March,

they put to sea, bound for Australia which the navigator calculated would take sixteen days. It took forty-seven. Through all that time they never lost heart, though as day after day passed in blazing sun or torrential rain, the chances of reaching land grew smaller and smaller.

They played games, held competitions, but found ‘that the mental exercise made us very hungry and that talking and arguing brought on thirst’. Saturday night at sea was kept religiously, a ration of liquor being issued, which was found on closer investigation to be a patent cough cure.

 Their worst experience was the visit paid to them by a young whale, about twice the size of the ‘Scorpion’, who came to rest lying in a curve with its tail under the boat.

 ‘Eventually it made off, and when we had regained the power of movement, we passed round a bottle of Australian “3 Star” Brandy . . . after which we did not care if we saw elephants, pink or otherwise, flying over us in tight formation’. At long last, they sighted land near Frazer Islet, were found by a Catalina flying boat of the United States Navy, and taken to Perth. An American submarine sent at once to Java found no sign of their comrades.

Such men as these typify the spirit of the less fortunate who had fought to the end in circumstances which, from the very beginning, made victory impossible, and even prolonged defence out of the question. It was through no fault of theirs that they did not accomplish more.

The straits to which they were reduced, flying unsuitable aircraft in the worst conditions, were soon reproduced on the same scale farther north. How the Air Force fared in the first campaign of Burma must now be told

8th March 1942

Status of land still owned Sultanate fortress, but the de facto held by the Dutch government. Because of the strong Dutch influence the Sultanate party can not do much in overcoming the problem of possession of the fort. Until finally the Japanese Army troops occupied the fort in 1942 after the Dutch surrendered to the Japanese with marked with kalijati Agreement in March 1942 in West Java.

Japanese Occupation of Malaya

a display by Susan McEwen  17th January 2009

Susan’s display comprised three rounds, with a great deal of interest during the viewing. Some pictures of the display below are followed by some notes from Susan with scans and notes about five items.

 

 

Introduction.

A display of this subject needs to start with an expression of our respect to those who endured the occupation, and lived through that difficult time.  Philatelically it was a time of Overprints, provisional postmarks and a lack of documentation which means we have to rely on the material for information.  Work by previous collectors is much appreciated and acknowledged.

Approach for the display:

Topics of interest to me, which hopefully hang together to tell the story of the Occupation.  Covering the stamp, postal history, postal stationery and Revenues of the occupation.

A full report will appear in the May edition of the Newsletter.

Meanwhile here are a few scans and notes relating to them.

1.      The postal service in Singapore re-opened on 16th March 1942, this card shows Double frame chops to convert it to Occupation use, posted 17th March  2nd day.

2.      Cover to show issued Single frame chop stamps and a ‘Request’ stamp, the 6c red. The Japanese would convert on request some, but not all, pre-occupation stamps to Japanese use by handstamping them with SFC, at a charge of the face value of the stamp.  Surely only philatelists would bother to have stamps converted in this way, someone just wanting to post a letter could buy a stamp at face value, rather than take his own stamps for converting.

3.      Photo postcard, endorsed on the back ‘Parade through Market Street Bentong, Pahang’  can anyone confirm the location ?

 

4.      Straits stamps converted to Occupation use with Single frame chops, in red, used at Medan in the  Japanese Occupied East Indies.  Initially the Sumatra part of DEI was administered from Singapore,  later  when Sumatra had its own postal administration Japanese-Malayan stamps were still accepted.

5.      Most of the post during the occupation was within the peninsular of Malaya.  This cover is from Singapore (CDS SYONAN 17.5.17)to Sarawak.  The note ‘In Romanise’ means the letter is written in Romanised Malay, not Jawi, and is information for the censor.

. Digest of operations

17th – 19th March 1942

Preparations for the assault on Batavia continue. Several BB taskforces have bombarded the port, causing widespread damage on military facilities. Collateral damage is minimal, due to selective targeting. The worlds leading battleship – the Yamato – has joined in the attacks.

Teloekbetoeng on nearby Sumatra was also bombarded by several taskforces. CA’s Mogami and Chokai report excellent gunnery and considerable damage to the colonial defenders.

Pomala in the Celebes fell on the 18th. A starving Dutch occupying force readily laid down their arms.

On the Kokoda track near Port Moresby, a large detachment of Australian troops surrendered early in the afternoon on March 19th. The remainder of the Port Moresby brigade have been located nearby and are likely to be rounded up shortly.

March,22th 1942

By 22 Mar,

 the Japanese had routed many Dutch resistance pockets, while Muslim uprisings, sparked by the Japanese invasion, seriously hampered Dutch efforts. The Muslim rebels were threatening civilian evacuation columns at every opportunity, while providing every piece of intelligence they gathered to the Japanese. Morale soon plummeted, and desertions became more frequent across all resistance groups.

 

 

 

22 March 1942

A military spokesman for Southeast Asia Command announced this evening that Batavia, last significant Allied stronghold in the Dutch East Indies, has fallen to the Japanese.

 Under constant air, sea and land bombardment for the last two weeks the postition of the defenders had been adjudged all but hopeless and had been anticipated as likely to occur at any time. “The troops fought on inspite of having no reasonable expectation of relief or rescue and thereby imposed a decisive delay in the enemy’s timetable of conquest.”

The garrison of slightly under 20,000 was composed of mostly Dutch forces but contained small contingents of British and Australian troops. Well over 100,000 enemy troops were involved in the final assault.

A small taste of what is to come saw Allied heavy bombers based in India smashing at a Japanese column advancing in North Burma and at their main supply base in Mandalay.

At Mandalay several enemy aircraft were destroyed on the ground and numerous supply dumps were seen to explode and burn furiously.

The enemy column hit the previous day lost a large number of tanks to the bombers. Neither attack was seriously opposed in the air by Japanese aircraft.

At sea two days ago, Allied ships damaged a Japanese submarine approxiamately 100 miles WSW of Ceylon. A large oil slick was observed before contact was broken off.

Operations between 20th to 22nd March 1942

BATAVIA FALLS! JAVA JOINS THE GREATER EAST ASIA CO-PROSPERITY SPHERE!

Java

After several further BB bombardments, elements from a numer of elite infantry divisions stormed Batavia

on the morning of the 22nd.

Facing only light resistance, first the Chinese then the European districts were taken within several hours. By early afternoon, the Dutch high command signalled a request for cessation of hostilities. It is estimated that well over twenty thousand prisoners of war have been taken. However it is understood that leading members of ABDA had alreadly fled the beleaguered enclave.

Kokoda trial

All remaining Port Moresby garrison units have been rounded up, after only minor skirmishes.

China

Several Chinese divisions were routed

on the 21st March.

 These units were thought to be fleeing Nanning, however after a short battle some 60 miles to the NW of the city, they were last observed retreating back to the city, in some disorder.

22 april 2009, 7:00 uur – Philip Levert van Postzegelvereniging Haarlemmermeer

Voor serieus sparen van Indische bezettingszegels is een catalogus onmisbaar, bijvoorbeeld die van de vereniging Dai Nippon. De bondsbibliotheek heeft literatuur, het Postmuseum beschikt over een paar uitgebreide verzamelingen. Japanners noemen hun land Nippon, tijdens de bezetting was het woord Japan verboden. Het Japanse (Nipponse) bestuur over Nederlands-Indië duurde van maart 1942 tot september 1945.

Begintoestand

Eerst iets over het toenmalige Ned.Indië. Ned.Indië – nu Indonesië – is enorm uitgestrekt. Viervijfde van de inwoners woont echter op de belangrijke eilanden Java en Sumatra, veruit de meesten op het dicht bevolkte Java. Dat waren in 1941 miljoenen inheemsen (6% daarvan Chinezen), 100.000 Hollanders en ca. 200.000 Indo’s. Nederland had in Ned.Indië miljarden geïnvesteerd in o.a. landbouwcultures, mijnbouw en infrastruktuur. Het Ned.Indische leger, het KNIL, telde in 1941 60.000 man waarvan 3/4 inheemsen. Het was niet georganiseerd om een buitenlandse agressor het hoofd te bieden. Ook de marine was veel te zwak en Nederland was in 1940 door Nazi-Duitsland bezet. Met Java als centrum was Ned. Indië een zeer ontwikkeld gebied.

In 1939 reden bijvoorbeeld op Java 100.000 auto’s rond, weinig minder dan in Nederland. Het wegen- en spoorwegnet waren in betere toestand dan nu, misschien had het gewone volk het toen ook beter dan nu. Bij het bestuur waren maar een handvol Nederlanders betrokken welke de topfuncties bezetten. Indonesiërs – toen inheemsen genoemd – met hogere studie-opleiding op topfuncties waren er ook. Daar had je echter maar weinig van. Op de Indische posterijen was niets aan te merken. Een brief deed er meestal korter over dan in het huidige Indonesië. De post werd bijna alleen gebruikt door  Chinezen en Hollanders want het gros der inheemsen was destijds analfabeet. Dit is te zien als je de oplagecijfers van postzegels vergelijkt met die van Nederland.

De Japanse inval

Begin 1942, kort na Pearl Harbour werd Nederlands-Indië binnen enkele weken door een Japanse overmacht van circa 160.000 man veroverd. De strijd kostte enige duizenden doden, waaronder 2550 Nederlanders. Moeilijke tijden braken aan. De Hollanders en een deel van de Indo’s werden van hun bezit beroofd en geïnterneerd  in zogenaamde Jappenkampen, vrouwen en kinderen apart van mannen en jongens. KNIL-militairen en vele burgergevangenen werden afgevoerd naar verre landen zoals Japan, Malakka en Siam (Thailand) waar ze slavenarbeid moesten verrichten, o.a. aan de beruchte Birmaspoorweg.

Vrouwen, kinderen en een klein aantal mannen bleven achter in kampen in Nederlands-Indië, bijna alle op Java en Sumatra. Als bekend was de toestand in de Jappenkampen ten hemel schreiend, een deel van de geïnterneerden heeft de transporten en de kamptijd daarom niet overleefd. Buiten de kampen was het ook slecht. Zeker een miljoen inheemsen werd dank zij Japans wanbeheer slachtoffer van ziekte en voedselgebrek. De Jap echter organiseerde inheemse anti-westerse strijdgroepen om de wind er bij het volk onder te houden. Deze vormden de basis van het latere Indonesische leger, de TNI. Onder Japans militair gezag werd ook een inheems marionettenbewind geïnstalleerd met Ir Soekarno als spreekbuis.

In augustus 1945 capituleerde Japan voor de Amerikaanse overmacht en de atoombommen. Ned.Indië was toen nog steeds bezet behalve Nieuw Guinea en enige kustplaatsen op Borneo. Ook nog in Japanse handen waren Malakka, Singapore, Siam (Thailand), Frans Indo China (Vietnam), Hongkong, Korea en grote delen van China.

De Amerikanen bleven ver weg, de Engelsen vanuit Birma en India gaven prioriteit aan de bevrijding van hun eigen gebieden. Pas september-october 1945 verschenen kleine Engels/Engels Indische troepeneenheden langzaam aan op de belangrijke eilanden Java en Sumatra. Zij zorgden voor ontwapening en afvoer van de Japanners, en bescherming en evacuatie van de Jappenkampen waar vrouwen en kinderen belaagd werden door bendes jonge Indonesiërs.

Op Java kwamen zo Engels-Indische enclaves in Batavia (Djakarta), Semarang, Bandoeng, Soerabaja, op Sumatra in Palembang, Belawan-Medan. Over de tijd na de Japanse bezetting zie een volgend artikel.

Toestand onder de Jap

De Japanse bezetter ontsloeg in 1942 direct de meeste Nederlanders, met een vertraging van enige maanden werden deze in kampen geïnterneerd. Hun bestuursfuncties werden bezet door onbekwame Japanse militairen want jammer maar helaas: het schip Tayo Maru met enige honderden speciaal voor Indië opgeleide Japanners was mei 1942 door de Amerikanen getorpedeerd.

Een (maakwerk-) brief vermoedelijk uit Medan (Sumatra), gefrankeerd met bezettingszegels van staten op Malakka, met propagandastempel, zonder datumstempel.

Van de post mochten kampbewoners geen gebruik maken, post van buiten mochten ze niet ontvangen. Ook buiten het kamp was het uitkijken. Wie een privé-brief verstuurde of ontving was eigenlijk al verdacht. De brief mocht alleen in de Maleise taal geschreven zijn. Of de geadresseerde de brief of kaart zou ontvangen en daar blij mee moest zijn was zeer de vraag. Op veel plaatsten mochten alleen maar briefkaarten verstuurd worden. De Japanse Gestapo, Kempei Tai geheten, steunde op een groot aantal fantasierijke inheemse verklikkers, niemand was te vertrouwen.

Deze Kempei Tai sloeg willekeurig toe met vaak marteling of dood als gevolg. Overigens maakte de als bevrijder ingehaalde Jap zich bij niet-collaborerende inheemsen al snel diep gehaat door wanbeleid en ranselcultuur: de Japanse generaal sloeg de kolonel, de kolonel de kapitein enzovoort terwijl geslagen worden voor Indonesiërs een dodelijke belediging is. Als bekend kregen de Hollanders in de Jappenkampen regelmatig slaag met stokken, zwepen of geweerkolven: buiten het kamp/werkgebied werd volstaan met de vuist of de vlakke hand. Kinderen daarentegen werden nooit geslagen.

Niet-militaire post tussen de eilanden onderling hield door oorlogsomstandigheden bijna op te bestaan. Hollandse postgebruikers waren er niet meer. Gevolg: poststukken en echt gebruikte postzegels uit de Japanse tijd zijn nu nog wel te krijgen, maar toch redelijk schaars. De Japanners voerden direct hun jaartelling (1942 werd 2602) en hun tijd (1½ uur vooruit) in. Ook werd Nederlands-Indisch geld vervangen door bezettingsbiljetten. Er ontstond een enorme inflatie. In augustus 1945 had het geld nog maar een duizendste van de waarde in 1942 maar de posttarieven veranderden nauwelijks. Het eerste bezettingsgeld had een Hollandse tekst (zie afbeelding), in 1944 werd het vervangen door biljetten in roepia-waardes met Maleise tekst.

Bestuursorganisatie onder de Jap

Het enorme eilandenrijk werd bestuurlijk in aparte militaire zones gesplitst:

  • Java, Sumatra en enige eilanden bij Sumatra: legerdistrikt, bestuurd vanuit Batavia (Djakarta). Lange tijd viel Noord Sumatra onder Engels-Malakka, landmachtcommando Singapore.
  • De vele eilanden oost en noord van Java: marinedistrikt, bestuurd vanuit Singapore.

Beide zones vielen onder een hogere autoriteit waar ook Malakka, Siam, Burma, enzovoort onder ressorteerde: commando Zuid. Samenwerking tussen de zones was er niet.

De postzegels

In Nederlands Indië waren aanwezig de Kreislerseries karbouw en Wilhelmina met en zonder watermerk, no 272 (NVPH Ned.Indiënummers) 5 c cijfer, de Konijnenbergserie Wilhelmina 274-289, restbestanden Moehamadijah 293-297, Danserserie 298-303, ‘Bijzondere Vluchten’zegel LP 18, en portzegels 23-28, 30-33, 35, 39, 40. Deze werden doorgebruikt, vanaf juli 1942 voorzien van een opdruk (‘chop’).

‘Chop’zegels in mijn bezit met ‘Dai Nippon’ briefkaart, stempeldatum onleesbaar.

De Japanners hadden trouwens koerserende zegels van Japan meegenomen welke gebruikt bekend zijn in Nederlands Indië: uiteraard durfde de posterijen daarmee gefrankeerde post niet te weigeren. In de begintijd werden dus Nederlands-Indische zegels zonder chop gewoon doorgebruikt.

 Deze gebruikte zegels zijn te herkennen als de jaaropgave in de balk door het rondstempel leesbaar is: 02 of 03 of 04 of 05, weergevende de Japanse jaartelling 2602, 2603, 2604, 2605. Ze zijn schaars en aan de prijs, vooral voor plaatsen buiten Java. Het kan dus lonen uw gestempelde Nederlands-Indië-doubletten nader te bekijken, je weet maar nooit.

De zegels met chop zijn een chaotisch verzamelgebied: complimenten voor het uitzoekwerk van de Dai Nippon Vereniging. Afhankelijk van tijd en plaats werden opdrukzegels gefabriceerd per provincie, per distrikt of per postkantoor. Afgezien daarvan heb je diverse types en variaties want vele (niet alle) werden met de hand aangebracht. Zie de Dai Nippon catalogus. Die onderscheidt chops van de marinegebieden Noord, West en Zuid-Oost Borneo, Celebes, Noord Celebes, Samarin

da, Ambon, Lombok. Voor legergebied Sumatra, ingedeeld in hoofdstukken ‘general’, ‘semi general’, ‘local’ en ‘provincial’, zijn vele postkantoren te vinden plus de provincies Atjeh, Tapanoeli, Riau, Jambi, Palembang, Lampung, Banka/Billiton, Benkoelen en de Oostkust. De opdrukken kunnen zijn een kruis, ster of andere figuur  (belangrijk was de afbeelding van Wilhelmina onherkenbaar te maken), teksten in Japanse lettertekens al of niet in kastje, en in marinegebied (bijna) altijd een anker, verschillend per eiland of postkantoor.

Een (maakwerk-) brief uit Soerabaja (Java), gefrankeerd met twee definitieve Java-bezettingszegels en enige Ned.Indische zegels met en zonder chop. Let op de stempeldatum 6-7-05: 6 juli 2605 oftewel 6 juli 1945, vijf weken voor de Japanse capitulatie.

Om het spannend te maken bestaan er ook zegels met meerdere opdrukken (in Dai Nippon catalogus ‘simplified’ niet gecatalogiseerd). Leuk zijn de briefkaarten, dezelfde als vroeger maar ‘Nederlands-Indië’ is op de ingedrukte karbouwenzegel door ‘Dai Nippon’ vervangen, zie afbeelding. Tevens is een Japanse tekst toegevoegd welke de vroegere Hollandstalige tekst vervangt.  De verzamelaar moet voor dit verzamelgebied helaas bedacht zijn op naoorlogs maakwerk en vervalsingen terwijl echtheidcertificaten niet bestaan.

February 1943,although there was no special notes for an incident that occurred  on February 14, but there are some historical events that occurred in this month and it is important to note.

 

 Beginning with the Japanese effort to master the eastern region of Indonesia, by sending additional troops to Tanimbar, Kai Islands, and West Irian.

 

Japan’s defeat in the Solomon Islands in February 1943 made the Americans back in charge of the Pacific region.

 

This defeat made many changes to the policy of Japan in Indonesia, especially in military policy.

 

Throughout 1943, Japan many Japanese built up the army (like Heiho, Giyugun, and Defenders of the Homeland or MAP) as a form of anticipation of an attack of the Allies to Indonesia later.

Omdat zowel Sumatra als Malakka onder het bestuur van het 25ste leger met als hoofdkwartier Singapore viel, werden zij eind september 1942 administratief samengevoegd. Niet alleen het eiland Sumatra, maar ook alle Indische eilanden die onder Singapore gelegen zijn. Hiervan zijn de Riouw en Lingga archipel en de Anambas en Natuna eilanden de voornaamste. In april 1943 werd de administratieve eenheid verbroken, maar de hierboven genoemde eilanden bleven administratief onder Singapore.

 

Daarom zijn hier Japanse bezettingszegels van Malakka gebruikt. Dit zijn zeldzaamheden en kunnen alleen aan het poststempel herkend worden

September,9th.1944

The stamp is a 1943 definitive issue for the Japanese Occupation of Sumatra.

Tebing Tinggi (Deli) is a town on Sumatra (as distinct from Tebing Tinggi the island).

The date on the cancel looks like 19.9.21 which doesn’t make sense unless the Japanese used a different calendar, like “in the year of the reign of emperor …”

I would appreciate any information I can get on the cancel, the rectangular Japanese stamp, and the rest of the typewritten text (I can’t even tell names from titles or address elements).

The Japanese chop reads ‘Sumatra – [illegible personal seal]/Censored’. The date 19.9.21 probably translates to 21 September 1944 (19th year of the Showa Era).

ご報告が遅くなりましたが、先月25日、本のメルマガ第439号が配信となりました。僕の連載「日豪戦争」では、今回は日本降伏の話を書きましたが、そのなかから、まずは、こんなモノを持ってきました。(画像はクリックで拡大されます)

        

 これは、1945年9月2日、降伏文書調印の日に東京湾に停泊していたオーストラリア海軍のシュロップシャー艦内の郵便局から差し出されたカバーです。

 連合国側が対日戦争の戦後処理に関する基本方針を決めたのは、1943年11月、ローズヴェルト、チャーチル、蒋介石の3者によるカイロ会談だったことは良く知られています。

 カイロ会談の内容は、同年12月1日、日本の無条件降伏要求と降伏後の日本領土の縮小などをうたった「カイロ宣言」として発表され、米英ソのテヘラン会談、ヤルタ会談を経て、ポツダム宣言の基礎となりましたが、この重要な会談に際して、オーストラリア代表は参加していません。

 1941年12月に日本と米英蘭との戦争が勃発したことを受けて、1942年1月1日付で発せられた「連合国宣言」には、最終的に26ヵ国が署名しましたが、その序列は米英中ソの4ヵ国を主要国とし、それ以外の国は同格としてアルファベット順になっていました。オーストラリアは、アルファベット順では最初の国となったものの、あくまでも“その他大勢”の一員でしかなく、連合国全体の意思決定に関与できるメンバーとはみなされていません。

 しかし、ダーウィン空襲など国土が直接の攻撃を受け、日本軍との戦闘で多大な犠牲を払ってきたオーストラリアは、対日戦争に関しては、米英中ソの後、オーストラリアまでが主要国であり、アルファベット順のベルギー以下が同格であるとひそかに自負していました。

 したがって、カイロ宣言の決定(その内容に対する賛否は別として)に自分たちが関与できなかったことについて、大いに不満です。

 そこで、オーストラリアは、1944年、ニュージーランドとともにキャンベラ協定(第一次世界大戦時に編成されたオーストラリア・ニュージーランド軍団 :Australian and New Zealand Army Corpsにちなみ、オーストラリア・ニュージーランド合同の軍事組織を意味する“アンザック協定”とよばれることもある)を締結。独自に、対日戦の戦後処理や南ならびに南西太平洋での安全保障、南太平洋政策での両国の協同をニュージーランドと約しています。主要国の決定に無条件で唯々諾々と従うわけではないとのアピールでした。

 その後も、ヤルタ会談やポツダム会談などにオーストラリアが直接関与することはありませんでしたが、そうしている間にも連合国による日本包囲網は次第に狭められていき、日本の敗戦を既定方針として日本占領の具体的な計画が策定されるようになります。

 その過程において、1945年7月、オーストラリア海軍のコルヴェット艦ゴーラーならびに駆逐艦のネイピア、ネパール、ニザーム、ノーマン、キベロン、クイックマーチが日本近海に派遣されました。

 8月15日正午、昭和天皇が玉音放送で国民に対して「終戦」を告げ、降伏の意思を明らかにした日本に対しては連合国の軍隊が進駐することになりますが、英国およびオーストラリア海軍の人員は米国第3艦隊上陸部隊の一員という形式を取って、日本海軍の横須賀鎮守府を接収するとともに、連合軍の東京上陸を補佐する任務を与えられ、8月30日、横須賀に上陸します。マッカーサーがコーンパイプを咥えて篤次の飛行場に降り立った、まさにその日でした。

 9月2日、日本と連合国との降伏文書が米戦艦ミズーリ上で調印され、オーストラリアからは豪州軍総司令のトマス・ブレイミーが署名しました。

 ちなみに、ブレイミーは、戦時中、部下に対して「諸君らが闘っているのは奇妙な人種である。人間と猿の中間にあると言っていい。文明存続のために我々は最後まで戦いぬかねばならない。日本人を根絶しなければならない。」と訓示していた人物です。オーストラリア国家を代表して“ジャップ”の降伏を受理したことは、さぞや痛快な出来事だったんでしょうな。

 降伏文書調印の当日、湾内に停泊していた連合国の艦船は258隻にも上ったそうですが、オーストラリア海軍からは、上述の艦船に加え、重巡洋艦のシュロップシャーとホバート、駆逐艦のバターン、セスノック、イプスウィッチなどが湾内に停泊していました。今回ご紹介のカバーは、そのうちのシュロップシャーから差し出されたものです。

 シュロップシャーはもともとは英国海軍の重巡洋艦として1926年2月に起工し、1928年7月に進水、1929年9月に就役し、地中海艦隊に所属していました。第2次大戦が勃発すると、大西洋やインド洋で活動していましたが、1942年8月、第一次ソロモン海戦でオーストラリア海軍の重巡洋艦キャンベラが撃沈されたため、その不足を補うため、同年12月、英国海軍を退役し、翌1943年4月、オーストラリア海軍に移管されています。

 オーストラリア海軍への移管後は、1943年12月のダイレクター作戦(ニューブリテン島・アラウェ上陸作戦)ならびにグロスター岬上陸作戦、1944年3月のアドミラルティ諸島の戦い、同4月のニューギニア・ホーランディアならびにアイタペ上陸作戦、同5月のビアク島上陸作戦、同7月のアイタペの戦いおよびサンサポール上陸作戦、同9月のモロタイ島上陸作戦、同年10月のレイテ沖海戦以降のフィリピンの戦いなど、日豪戦争の主要な戦いに参加しました。

 降伏文書調印の当日、シュロップシャーの艦内郵便局では、“TOKYO BAY/JAPAN”の文字が入った日付印と、降伏文書調印を祝う“Official Signing Of Japanese Surrender(日本降伏の公式調印)”の文字の入った記念スタンプが使われています。

 こうした記念印の類は、降伏文書調印の場となった米戦艦ミズーリ号をはじめさまざまな艦船でさまざまなタイプのものが使われていますが、オーストラリア海軍に関しては、シュロップシャーのほかホバート、ワラムンガでも使われました。

 なお、シュロップシャーは降伏文書の調印後もしばらく日本にとどまっていましたが、1945年11月18日、シドニーに向けて日本を出港しています

After the end of the Japanese occupation, Taiping airport only served flights to other airports within Perak, leaving Ipoh as the only Perak airport to provide passenger services to other Malay states. Today, the airport is no longer in regular use. Taiping airport is recognised by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and carries the 3-letter IATA code of TPG

RTHE INDONESIAN INDEPENDENT RECVOLUTION AND WAR 1945-1950

Let read carefully

1.July 1945

Dalam konferensi tanggal 21-23 Juli 1945

 masalah pendirian kembali CPN tidak lagi didiskusikan. Perdebatann yang agak sengit berkisar pada masalah pertanggung-jawaban, mencari siapa yang salah dan masalah-masalah pribadi.

Akhirnya dilakukan pemilihan pimpinan Partai dengan hasil pengikut De Groot mendapat mayoritas. De Groot berhasil bertahan berkat oposisi yang tampil compang-camping dan tidak taktis serta manuvernya yang cekatan dan menyakinkan.

 

Dalam hubungan di Belanda pendapat Roestam tidak sesuai dengan suasana “De Waarheid” dan juga PI yang diwakili oleh Setiadjit yang pada tahun 1944 duduk dalam Indische Commissie untuk perjuangan bersama yang dalam bulan Maret 1945 mengeluarkan pernyataan “Voor de bevrijding van Indonesie” (untuk Kemerdekaan Indonesia).

Ini merupakan pernyataan persetujuannya untuk bergabung dengan sukarela dalam suatu “vernieuwd gemenebest (persemakmuran bersama yang diperbaharui) dan akhirnya menyerukan agar “bekerja dengan sukarela” untuk memerdekaakan Indonesia dan bahkan menolak pengiriman “tentara milisi”.

 

Bagi de Groot dan kawan-kawan yang ingin menyebarluaskan gambaran tentang Gerakan De Waarheid/CPN yang moderat secara nasional,

 

 

 

visi Roestam Effendi

 tidak bisa diterima sama sekali

  The Potsdam Conference
July 17-August 2, 1945
was held at Cecilienhof, the home of Crown Prince Wilhelm Hohenzolern, in Potsdam, Germany.August 2, 1945. The participants were the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Stalin, Churchill, and Truman—as well as Attlee,
who replaced Churchill after the Labour Party’s defeat of the Conservatives in the 1945 general election—
had gathered to decide how to administer the defeated Nazi Germany, which had agreed to unconditional surrender nine weeks earlier, on May 8 (V-E Day).
The goals of the conference also included the establishment of post-war order, peace treaties
issues, and countering the effects of war

at the Potsdam Conference deciding the world’s fate

 General McArthur’s reaction:

“After the Borneo campaign, I had planned to proceed with the Australian troops
to Java and to retake the Netherlands East Indies. Then, as in New Guinea, restoration
of Dutch government would have brought the return of orderly adninistration and law.
But for reasons I have never been able to discover, the proposed movement was vetoed
by Washington – even in the face of my assurances that its full success was certain at minor cost

 

(2)In July 1945 

Daan Mogot graduated from PETA

During the Japanese occupation, Daan Mogot entered the military organization formed by native Japanese in Java, the Defenders of the Homeland or PETA. The year was 1942, he became a member of PETA’s first generation. Daan Mogot actual age has not been determined eligible by the Japanese of 18 years. At that time he was 14 years old.

In addition they are trained how to use a good weapon to face the opponent.

After the 50th person inducted into the officer, they no longer served as an Assistant Instructor, but a shodancho.

Once inducted into PETA officers, each officer returned to his native region. In Bali, Daan Mogot, Zulkifli Lubis and Kemal Idris, along with several other officers set up PETA and PETA train candidates in there.

The reason Japan founded PETA in Bali because Bali is considered a defense areas and landing sites.

For that power is prepared, especially in the Nagara and Klungkung. Japan gives credence to the Daan Mogot train in Tabanan, Kemal Idris in the Nagara and Zulkifli Lubis in Klungkung.

 Although the three friends separated their posts, but they always make contact, either discuss matters relating to training as well as about the fate of people who are suffering under the soles of the invaders.

Specific training activities when it is preparing to face an enemy attack the defense on the beach. During the year the shodancho in Bali is doing well. The next year they should be separated.

 Four people shodancho should go back to Java, while Daan Mogot, Zulkifli Lubis, and Kemal Idris, who stayed.

 They act as instructors PETA, provide training to prospective officers until they are proficient in various fields of the army.

Daan Mogot is famous in the history of the revolution time of war to maintain the independence of Indonesia in fighting in the forest-Serpong, Tangerang Banten Lengkong, when the Military Academy Midshipman Tangerang he leads try to seize weapons from the Japanese army on 25 January 1946.

Ironically, while he struggled to maintain the independence of Indonesia even willingly fall on the battlefield, his father was killed by robbers who thinks “people Manado” (Minahasa people) as londoh-londoh (minions) the Netherlands.

One time, Major Daan Mogot meet with his cousin Alex Kawilarang. Wearing a green cap, he was down on his motorcycle. 17-year-old youth was later picked up by Alex on the roadside, and he showed the face of joy. A warm meeting place.

Then they chatted in the house. Daan Mogot told me that he now lives in New Asem Jalan, riding on the family Singgih. Immediately disambungnya story of the struggle. About the attacks in Pondok Gede.

 He is also a story about his father who had just killed, is not known with certainty by whom. “A lot of true anarchy going on here,” said Alex. “Indeed, it is a must Torang clean up. Therefore, the weapon must be in the hands of Torang pe “continued Daan. He said again to Alex, “Torang, people of Manado, do not do the absurd. Caution, caution! Torang must actually demonstrate, at the side where we are. “

Then Daan also talked about his thoughts on a college to educate the youth who want to become soldiers, who later turned out to happen, is the establishment of “military academy” (military academy) on November 18, 1945 in Tangerang.

As a sponsor realization of the idea of ​​establishing a military academy school, then on 18 November 1945 he was appointed as Director of the Military Academy Tangerang (MAT) at the time he was 17 years old.

Actually in Yogyakarta also stand Military Academy Yogya (Yogya MA) almost simultaneously, which is dated 5 November 1945. The idea of ​​establishing a military academy is indeed like that be imagined by Daan Mogot.

The first atomic bomb
Imagine there’s no Heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for todayImagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peaceYou may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as oneImagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the worldYou may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one– Lyrics to “Imagine” by
John Lennon, 1971.

Devastation in Hiroshima….
   
 
One day after the bomb blast
 
Boy with burned back
   
 
A woman whose face is disfigured from the blast. Later, when the rain would fall, some of the mobile survivors would actually drink the rain water which was poisonous with radiation.
 
Young Japanese boy suffers from radiation burns
   
 
Japanese female whose face is totally disfigured from heat and radiation.

May Man have learned from the lessons never to repeat again the tragedies of Hiroshima and Nagasaki…

B.THE V. ESBENSEN’S CATALOGUE 1980 OF INDONESIA STRUGGLE FOR INDPENDENCE POSTAL HISTORY COLLECTIONS 1945-19450

After the official end of the war on 15.8.45 the Japanese(Dai Nippon) were instructed to maintain Government service until Allied Forces arrived.Therefore the Dai Nippon Occupation Postal services continue operating after 15.8.45.TGhe Republic Postal services was officially inaugurated on Sumatra sometime during October 1945(the earliest date is note known).

The affect of the change of postal administration started to appear during the first week of November 1945.Thus for the purpose of postal history,the Japanese Occupation postal service ended during October 1945. But the cgange from one postal administration to the next was gradual and the effects of the occupation lasted for about three years.Japanese occupation stamp without Republican overprint were sold at some post offices as late as January or February 1948.The date on which Japanese occupation stamps because invaluid is not know,but it was probably about mid-1948.

Giving exact information about 1945-1949 postal history odf the Republic is practically imposible because nearly all official records were destroyed prior to 1950 and philatelist did not do any serious research inti this postal history while it was still fresh.(Dr Iwan have starting in 1956 until now,and in 1985 had communication and echange info with Mr V.Esbesensen during he stayed at Canada,but in 1994 he moved to Singapore,but he did not want to met Mr Suwito Harsono,and one year after that he was pass away)

It appears that the Republic collected Japanese Occupation stamps at a number of central points.These stamps were then overprinted with Republican overprint and redistributed.However,many stamps without republican overprint also appear to have been redistributed.Thus one can find stamps of Bangka-Billiton Dai Nippon overprint were used in Tapanoeli or middle Sumatra,stamps of overprint Dai Nippon Palembang used in the East Coast province etc.How stamps of Bangka-Billiton came into Republican hands is not clear because the Republic did not control Bnagka-Billiton.

The situation in Java almost same with Sumatra,but in java the Dutch East Indie stamps without queen potriat like dancer stamps never overpr8int by dai Nippon ,also the postal stationer karbouw 31/2 cent,different in Sumatra all kind of DEI stamps were overprint in every province and redidency.

According to a post office circular Dutch east Indies and Japanese Occupation stamps remained valid after the postal service were taken over by the Republic,but the Nederlanda indies and Japanese characters were supposed to be crossed out .

As aresult many different crude overprints were used to cross out the words.It is believed,but cannot be proved.taht most of these overprints were applied to stocks of mint stamps at local post offices before the stamps were sold to the publ8ic(Dr Iwan have the unused stamps sample ).

But in some case it is imposisible to prove wheter an overprint was applied by the postal services(my friend,retires postman told Dr Iwan that the postman used parker ink ),  was applied by the postal services or by a private person.But at that time few people would have bought stamp to keep at home and street mail boxes were probably none existent.Thus the stamps pn most non-phillatelic items would have been purchased and applied when these iyems were brought into a post officed to be mailed.

(Dr Iwan will discussed about the rare philatelic items based on V.Esbensen Catalogue 1980 and other Dai Nippon Club catalogue,the discussion only in the specialist full illustration CD-ROM Only because the common philatelist very difficult to understand if they did not know about the Dai Nippon Occupation Java and Suamtra postal hisyory 1941-1945, for that Dr Iwan asked sorry in the common cheapest CD-ROM this infoo did not exist)

(3) Emperor Hirohito asked the Dai Nippon Military  surrendered to allied Army(D) 

(4) Sjahrir Told Hatta that Japanese have aksed peace to Allied Armed Forces and suggest Sukarno annouced via radio Indonesia Independence.

(a)In the afternoon 14th Agustus , Sjahrir came to told me that Japanese have asked peace to Allied, and he asked how about our Independence ? I have aswered our Independence was on our hands.

The Sjahrir’s opinion,that the Indonesia Indepen-dence proclamation  willn’t by the commitee of preparation Indonesian Independecde because the allied Army will said that the  birth of Republic of Indonesia  was made by the Japanese. Better only Sukarno  himself annouced as the  leader under the people’s named via Radio.(ibid,Hatta,1951)

(b) This party was over around 1.30 in the afternoon. Only then did we go home.At Home I found Syahrir waiting. “How was it?”he said .

I said that the japanese had given the matter up to us.  Then Syahrir said that it would be better if the proclamation of Independence  were not made by the Committee for the Preparationb of Independence, because Japan had already surrendered, whilst the Committee were made by Japan. It would be better if the proclamation were made just by Bung Karno.

I said , would he want to do that, because, after all, he was the Chairman of that Committee. I phoned Bung Karno tight away. I asked :”You weren’t asleep yet?”.Bung Karno answered :”No,not yet” Then I said :”Something important has come up, Syahrir and I would like to come now for a few minutes”. Bung karno said :”Alright,please comenow”

Syahrir and I went there immedietely. Bung Karno was waiting for us. Syahrir then suggested that Bung Karno himself should make the proclamation. Sukarno said that, however things might be, it would not be right for him to seize the opportunity himself in this matter without acting together with the Committee.

Syahrir said that with the regard to this matter, Bung Karno should act as leader of the people, while the Committee was made by Japan.

Again Bung Karno said that no matter how things might be, we had cooperated with the Japanese for quite a long time.

Bung Karno also said at that time that he did not yet know for certain and was not yet convinced that the Japanese had surrendered already, as Syahrir said.

“All right then , tommorow,together with Bung Hatta, I’ll go yo the Gunseikanbu to make inquiries; that won’t be too late ,will it?” Bung karno said. Said Syahrir ,”No,that won’t be too late”.(Yasni,1984,p-118)

AUGUST 15th 1945

Money order fragment,destination postal circulaire stamped CDS Serang 20.8.05

 

(2) Although Dai Nippon was officially surrendered, the Dai Nippon Military Administration still exist in Indonesia

(,they have waited to give the power to Allied army, but the allied army very late came to Indonesia, that is way the Japanese Military Administration still exist until The British Army under allied army came. The unique and postal  history collection will proved that situation-auth)

1.In 15th August,

(a)the Japanese have asked” Peace” to Allied Armed forces( they didn.t like  to say “Surrendered”,may be they ashamed and still had the power -auth), that is way we dicided

(b) to invited the member of PPPK (Indonesia Independence prepatory Committee) to have the meeting at 10.00 morning in the Sanyo Office at Pejambon 2.

 

(c) Indonesia Indepence Proclamation must be announce as fast as we could, the Indonesia National Basic Law (UUD) must be “Mufakat” without any discussed  and the Indonesia Governerment at Central and Regional area must be done in several days only.

(d) The PPKI’s members from regional area must came back to their area with bring the complete instructions from the Indonesia Independence Government. If they back latetly,may be the Japanese will banned them backhome because the Japanese have the powered from the Allied Army( Jurukuasa  underpower.)

(e) That True Japanese had aggreed Indonesian Independence, but may be the allied army will asked the Japanese army to liquidatied Indonesia and will tried to gave back to Dutch East Indie Government.

(f) Organized revolution must exist, then Indonesion Independence could resisted with all Indonesian people’s struggled. Depend on this ,then I am “menentang” or against the Youngman,Peta and peoples’s “Merebut Kekuasaan” or Fight the Power theory, that suggested in the afternoon by in memoriam Subianto and subadio, the Parlemen’s member now.

(g)The fight of Power must be after the Independence Proclamation by Bung karno via Radio.To the two Men I said that I like Revulution, but against the “Putsch”or Rebellion.The Young men didn’t sustified to this explenation but latter they have said that that were true and Subianto have done my special tasked until he was died in Serpong. (ibid Hatta,1951)

2.The following morning (15th August 1945)

we went to the Gunseikanbu,( Dai nippon Military Administration Headquaters , the present Pertamina building-auth). There was nobody there. Except for a single Lieutenant by the name of Nomura, If I’m not mistaken.

Everybody had been summoned to the Gunserei-kanbu .I thought, the Japanese had indeed already surrendered.

Subardjo, assistant to  Admiral Tadashi Maeda,

 

who was also with us at the time suggested that we go straight away to Admiral Maeda. Which we did, and we met Maeda.(in 1946 Maera was arrested by the Allied army,in 1946 bring backhome to japan as ther retired Navy, and in 1976 he had gave Indonesia Narariya Star Medal  by Indonesian Gverment, and in 1977 he was pass away-info from samsi jacobalis book,2000)

Bung karno asked whether the rumours were true, the Japan had surrendered .Maeda was silent , for sevela minutes he did not anwer and his head was bowed. I pinched Bung Karno and whispered :”It looks as if the rumours are true”

In the end , Maeda drew a long breath and said :” According to Allied broadcasts,yes.But we have not yet recieved any instruction at all from Tokyo. It is those instructions  from Tokyo that are decive”(He didn’t told that The Tenno Haika Hirohito asked the Military to Surrender –auth)

After that we took leave from Maeda. As you know, Bung Karno was Chairman of The Preparatory Commi-tee, I was the Vice Chairmain, and for daily activity Siebardjo assited us. I told Soebardjo to call a meeting of all members of the Prepatory Committee for the morning of 16th August 1945 at Pejambon (now Foreign affair Ministry office-auth) Soebardjo called all the members by phone: they were all staying in the Hotel Des Indes.

(d)In the afternoon of 15th August 1945

Two people came to my house, Soebianto (margono’s son) and soebadio. Both urged me to influence Soekarno to be willing to make the proclamation on behalf ofthe leaders of the people. Not on behalf of the Prepatory Committee, because ita was made by Japan.

I said that this depneded on Soekarno himself. I wondered whether he would want to do what or not. But I was afraid he would not want to, because he was the Chairman of that committee. If be stepped foward alone, he woulkd be usurping other people’s right. Maybe he wouldnot want to do that.

Soebianto and Soebadio continued to press me and said :” If you pres him, of course Bung Karno will do it.”I said :” On what grounds would I press him? He,myself, the member of the Committee, all have worked together with the Japanese, but if there somebody who will make the proclamation who ever never cooperated with the Japanese, it be best for him just vto do it.

We continue to argue, at the end those two people said : “Well, in arevolutionary period, Bung Hatta cannot be brought in.” I answered :” That is not how it is. I am now preparing a revolution. The revolution has not begun yet. We are preparing for it. I don not want to make a Putsch as Hitler did in Germany, which failed . If we act , we must succeed” then the two went away.

It shloud also be said here,that on the night of 15 august, in preparation fdor the meetinmg of the Prepatory Committee next morning in 16 August, I typed out the opening of the Constitution to be used as the text for proclamation.

While I was typing, Soebardjo came in, it was about eight o’clock at night.He said,”Bung Karno is being  attacked by the youth. We should go there together “. So I went in Soebardjo’s car because my driver was not there.Wikana talked a lot. Wikana insisted that the proclamation should be made the same night (The night of August 15th).Soekarno sait it could not de done because it was only tomorrow (August 16th) that we were going to have a meeting. Wikana said, we do not want the proclamation made by the Prepatory Committee is rgarded as made by Japan. I said, if the Prepatory Committee is regarded as made by Japan,Bung Karno and I, and also many other leaders, have been cooperatin with the Japanese for a long time.So if things are like this, it is neccessary to look for somebody to make the proclamation, chosen from among who have never cooperated with the Japanese.

And we will back them up.  But the youth still wanted Bung karno to do it. At the time Wikana said,that, if by twelve midninght Bung karno had not proclaimed the Indepnedence of Indonesia the on the following morning(16 August 1945) there would be bloodshed.Then Bung karno became angry.He stood up straight away and went up to Wikana, and, pointing to his neck, Bung karno said :” Here is my neck. You needn’t wait till tomorrow. Take me down and finishe me off this very night.”

“ Oh,that’s not what I mean,Bung” said Wikana.”Then ,what do you mean ?”.”The people and our youth will rebel and will start killing the Ambonese here”, said Wikana.

Then I put in ,:”Why  the Ambonese? You want to start a revolution, why do it by killing your own people , you want to kill innocent people? He answered :’ Well, the Ambonese are considered to be NICA (Netherlands Indische Civil Agency-auth) , aqccomplices of the Dutch”. I said :” That’s only what people think. For some time already, they have worked together with us, and now you want tokill them? What sort of way is that ?”

TEMPERS WERE RUNNING HIGH, the I SUGGESTED TO Bung Karno that the four of us should talk inside. These four were Bung karno, myself,Dr Boentaran and soebardjo. For fifteen minutes we talked in another room at Pegansaan Timur, I suggested to Bung Karno that he should tell thoise young people to find someone from among themselves who had never cooperated with Japanese to make the proclamation, and we would state we would(shall?) back them up to the full. Let them makes the proclamation.

After about fifteen minutes we came out again and Bung Karno firmly told them so.In turned out that they still wanted Bung Karno to make the proclamation. Not a single one of them was ready or dared do it.

“To nignt we will not come to an agreement. It is useless”’said Bung Karno,”I am determined to go on with the meeting of the Preparatory Commitee tomorrow. Then proceed with the proclamation of Independence. If you do not agree, that’sis your business.I’m not going to take their right for myself. There’s no use in your pressing me, just go home first, and we’ll stop here”(ibid Yasni,1984).

Thursday-AUGUST 16th 1945

1)SUKARNO AND HATTA , IN THIS MORNING AT 4.00 PM carried off  BY SUKARNI CS TO RENGASDENGKLOK .

(1)Vintage Hatta’s version in 1951

At 16 August 1945 ,10.00 morning, all members of PPKI  and several femous man with pers were presented in Pedjambon 2 building, but who weren’t present were…

…..the invitator, Sukarno and Hatta, because they at 4.00 morning they were carried out to Rengasdengklok by Sukarni cs.

Their  reason have told by Sukarni  for bring us,  because Sukarno didn.t proclaimed the Indonesia Indepenced like what their will or  preffered , then the Youngmen , PETA(ex Dainippon defend Homeland army) and peoples will “bertindak” done themself.

In Jakarta will be an Revolution to fight the power from Japanese, that is way Bung karno and us must be flee to Rengasdengklok to administratived the Indonesia Independent Government there.

When heared that , in the front of my face(mind) that the Disasters will happened  to Indonesia, the mad actions of the younmen willn’t succeeded .This  Rebellion will killed the Indonesian Revolution.

At this day , the Hot blood youngmen could not relized their own theory. Rebellion didn’t happened , outside Jakarta theren’t preparations aanymore. The Japanese have ready with their completed war machined to welcome all will be happaned.

In Rengasdengklok weren’t any meeting. There we workless “mengangur” Lost worked one day to saw from far the vision without based with reality.But, if there a place in Indonesia that realy be the fight of the power was at Rengasdengklok. The Rengasdengklok’s PETA have arrested  theJapanese’s  Wedana(Village’s Chief and two or three Japanese”Sakura” who adminstratived the Rice. The Jakarta’s  Syotyokan(Mayor)this day have came to Rengasdengklok to check the Rice stock, he also arrested “coup d’etats .

For Who and under the whomed’s  name the PETA fight the power there? For  and under the name of Indonesian Independence?  Indonesian Independence wasn,t birth this day and There wasn,t exist Indonesia Revolusioner Government.

In the afternoon Mr Subardjo have came as the Gunseibu’s envoy to bring us Home and Sukarni didn’t against that. In the night we came back to Djakarta also with Sutardjo and Sukarn and the Peta asked what about the Wedana, we said released him. At this nignh the the chief of Revolutiuon , will be started, and came back to the hand of Sukarno-Hatta (ibid Hatta,1951)

(2)Later Version By Hatta in 1984

At four o’clock in the morning, after my last meal before sunrise ( this during the Moslem fasting month). Soekarni came to my house with somebody from PETA ( I don’t remenbmber his name anymore) to fetch me.

Soekarni said :”I,m asking you to came with us”. “Where to?” I said.”Out of town” he said.”What are we going out of town for ?”I said again. Soekarni anwered : “ Well, we are going to free Indonesia and continue the Goverment from there, out of town”

”What government, it hasn’t been formed ye t.Independence hasn’t been proclaimed yet, only tomorrow morning. What gouvernment are you talking about?”

“Well that is how it is.This is the decision of the youth. Bung Karno and you aare going to be taken out of town, independence will proclaimed there “ said Soekarni.

I answer ,:” Oh,that’s how it is. What you are trying to do is the same as Hitler’s abortive Putsch in Munich,that is,trying to seize power without any backbone and mature planning” I laso said :” We were gpoing to proclaim our independence and you’re going to make a failure of it”

Soekarni said again :” Well,in any case ,just come with us,Bung. If you don’t come. Bung karno won’t want to come either”

From my house I was tkaen to Bung Karno’shouse. From there Bung Karno, Fatmawati, Guntur, all of us, were taken to the border of Krawang in the direction of Rengasdengklok. Near krawang before turning off to Rengasdengklok, the car stopped. We were removed into a pick-up vehicle. The milk for baby Guntur was left behind in the previous car, which was sent back to Jakarta. Perhaps the reason was to prevent people from knowing where they had taken us. With that pick-up finally arrived in Rengasdengklok.

We were put in the office of the Daidan ( a lower administrative unit of PETA) . We were ordered to sit there. The house was two-storied, upstair seemed to be their bedrooms. We sat there together . Then the Wedana of Rengasdengklok was brought there.He was startled to see us there.

After sitting there for an hour, we were told to move to another house not far away.It seemd to be the house of a Chinese, a landowner herer. We were guarded by a young man with a bambooo spear. Until close to tweleve noon nothing happened . Then I called the guard and asked him to call Soekarni. I said :” The man who brought us here, his name is soekarni,” He still didn’t know. I told him to ask the daidan.

The guard went away, Of course, he should not have left us. But Bung Karno and I told him to go, so he went. Miltarily of course, he was in fact being indisciplinary. Not long after that the guard came back with Soekarni. We asked him :”How is it, have you stated your revolution ? This morning you said that the people would attack.Have the people attacked jakarta yet ?”

He said , there had been no contact with Jakarta,yet. Bung Karno and I told him tophone Jakarta, to contact his headquaters and asked them whether it had taken place or whether it had failed or was it just talk and there had been no realization at all

He went . We waited for a long time. It almost an hour, and still he had not comeback. I thought,  nothing was happenening.

About two o’clock in the afternoon he came back at last and said that he tried to contact Jakarta; it was very difficult to make contacct at first, but at least he had done so,he said.

“And what has happened ? have the people attacked Jakarta ?” .”No,there’s been no attack”,he said.”This morning you said that the people were going to attack and disarm the Japanese, therefore you brought us here. Now,itseems , nothing has happened. So,you’ve failed.” I said.”That is not sure yet.” H e replied.

Thus , we just waited and waited as we had done since morning. All that Bung Karno and I did was to take turns with Fatmawati holding Guntur and trying to quieten him.

 

Guntur with Sukarno and Fatmawati

 

He kept on crying because there was no milk. Fatmawati couldnot feed him and there was no canned milk because it had been left in the car had been sent back to Jakarta that morning.

When it was my turn to be holding Guntur on my lap, he uninated. My trouser were wet and I had no change.So I could not say mt prayers, wheas it was fasting month. Only aound one in the afternoon was atin of milk brought and only then  did Guntur become quiet.

That evening toward six o’clock,Soebardjo came from Jakarta looking for us. He negotiated with the Daidan to take us  back to Jakarta.

First the daidan refused. Soebardjo pointed out “What is the use of detaining Bung karno and Bung Hatta here ? Nothing is happening in Jakarta. It is absolutely queit there. The meeeting this morning was cancelled because you brought Bung Karno and Bung Hatta here. Why must it be like this ?”

When we were to be taken back to Jakarta , i asked jokingly,”Better if we spent the night here, it is ill-time now,” Fatmawati(Soekarno’s wife)protested :”No, the tin of milk for Guntur which the guard brought is finished. Guntur will suffer and will cry again.At least we started for Jakarta.

In the end we were ready again to go back to Jakarta.

Soekarni also went with us.

Funny things happaned also on our way ack. Soekarno,myself and Soebardjo sat in the back in the car, while Soekarni sat in front next to the driver. Fatmawati and Guntur together with Soetardjo were in another car.

On our way to Jakarta before we passed Krawqang, we saw smoke in the distance, said Soekarni :” Now then the people have started to burn down the properties of the Chinese.” Bung Karno told the driver to goon, then to stop for a while when we told the driver to have a look. Laten on, he said it was only the people burning rice straw. We all doubled up with laughter. Soekarni did look slightly embarrassed.

When we reached jakarta, Soetardjo accompanied Fatmawati and Guntur home to 56 pegangsaan street (now Proklamasi street)with their own car ,

Bung Karno and myself ,Soebardjo and soekarni went to my place with our car.

I immediately asked Soebardjo to phone Hotel de Indess  to CALL A MEETING THAT SAME NIGHT OF MEMBERS OF THE PREPATORY COMMITTEE AT MIDNIGHT AT HOTEL das INDES to continue the meeting which had not taken place that morning.look at the picture of Hotel Des Indes  below

 

Those at Hotel des Indes said by phone that for some time past the Japanese has instructed the hotel management sot to allow meetings to be held after ten at night.

Soebardho suggested we try to ask MAEDA’S AGREEMENT TO HOLD THE MEEETING AT HIS HOUSE. We AGREED WITH Soebardjo suggestion.Maeda answered by phone:”He would with pleasure put his house at our disposal for the meeting and he was happy to hear that the two of us had returned to Jakarta. All 21 members were invited to hold that  MIDNIGHT MEETING.

Each of us wanted to go home first since there were still a few hours to go before midnight.”What about me?” asked Soekarni.”You go home too”I said. “But,I can’t go like this, in my PETA uniform”. “Why are you afraid. You took tke risk,you dared make a revolution, why should you be afraid of being arrested by the Japanese?”. In the end i lent him a few clothes, which happened to fiyt. Perhaps a bit tight, but he went home in those cloth. Going back to Jakaeta he was in PETA uniform, although he had no right to them because he was not a member of PETA.

Then there was a telephone call from Miyoshi, my laisson man at the Gunseikanbu, saying that the Sumobucho wanted to see me. I told Miyoshi that we would come around 10. p.m. . After taking bath I phoned Bung Karno to fetch me to go to Maeda’s and the Gunseikan at 10 p.m.

First we went to Maeda’s house and accompanied by Maeda too, we went to the house of the Sumabucho. (Read Dai Nippon Military adminstration Java about the Dai Nippon official goverment-auth) .

Maeda was delighted we were back and shook hands with us. The Sumobucho did not allow the holding of meeting any longer. “What can we do? We have surrendered to the Allies and now we are just tools of the Allies. The Allies instructed us to guard the status quo no changes are to be made anymore.

We immediately answered rather harshy :”You are a Samurai. General Terauchi at Dalat left it to us. What about your oath and your promise as a Samutai to us ?” “We are in a different position now”, he said. “You alway stalk, about your Samurai spirit. Show it to us no”,We retorted.

Bung karno and I indeed used rather harsh words and apparentley Miyoshi refined it translation a little, but eventually, we didn’t achieve anything.

Bung Karno said again :” So, if our youth takes action,will your army shoot them ?” The Sumobucho said :” Yes, we are forced to. Thoses are the Allied instructions, there is nothing esle to be done.”

Maeda went home earlier. He seemed bored by that endless talk. In the end, after about one hour, we also left the house of the Sumobucho and returned to Maeda’s house.Maeda just laughed, saying that the Sumobucho had no standpoint. At the beginning we were five people gathered there, that is,Bung Karno

 

 

, myself(Bung Hatta)

 

, Soebardjo

 

, Sayuti Melik and Soekarni.

We agreed ten to write the text odf the proclamation. I said that the text had been prpared since last night, was at my place. It wasn’t quite ready; I was typing it, when I was taken to Bung Karno’s house.

Bung karno said that we should make just a short text ,” Bung Hatta knows better Indonesian than I do. Think about it and write it down” said Bung Karno.

To think and write at the same time is rather difficult. I’ll think out the sentences and Bung Karno write them down” I said.

Then I spoke the sentences of the draft proclamation, and Bung Karno wrote them down on paper. The two main sentences that i dictated were,” We, the Indonesian peopke, hereby proclaim the Independence of Indonesia. The tranfer of power and the like, matters relating there to will be carried out carefully and in the shortest possible time”

Bung Karno slowly read the text of the proclamation. Tree time he read it. Ultimately everybody agreed unanimously, everybody accepted it happily. Everybody shouter :”Agrreed”.

Then I asked the all saying:” So this is an important document for the history of our nation.Let us all who are present here sign this document . Just as when George Washington made his proclamation, evereybody present signed the document .” Nobody answere. Dilence. Then Soekarni said:” It is not good if all of us sign the document. Soekarno-Hatta is sufficient on behalf of all the people of Indonesia

Everybody was happy. I was rather annoyed, because they were given an opportunity to make history, but didn’it want to take it (may be they were affraid to Japanese ????-auth ,what your comment?). So, it seem they only looked like tigers from the outside. Iapparently they were brave, but in fact they were not).

The meeting was ended, everybody was happy. Maeda

came down from his room upstairs. He shook hands with everybody present. We ordered the btext of the proclamation to be retyped, multiplied and broadcast.

Thus, only that night had the Sunobucho told us that since tweleve noon that day instruction had been recieved by Japan from the Allies that the status quo was not to be changed, and therefore the holding of meetings could not be approved. But Maeda not only gave permission , but even put his house at our disposal for that historic meeting. I think the reason Maeda did that was HIS CONSCIENCE AS SAMURAI SOLDIER HE FELT BOUND BY Japan’s promise, and (perhaps) he felt he was going to punished by the Allies anyway, so it was better to help the wishes of the Indonesian ppeople to reach the treshold of their ieals.

That is my private guess. So, the meeting which was to be held in the morning 0f 16th August 1945 was cancelled which we had been carried off to Rengasdengklok, and it was not true the Japanese prevent it.

It is necessary to note here, which I learnt afterwards, that threre was a proposal by Soekarni which he conveyed through Soebardjo, to add five more names to participate in the signing of the text of the proclamation, but Soebardji did not mention this during the early morning meetin in August 17. Maybe it was because Soekarni had said that night it was enough for just two people to sign it (ibid Yasni,1984).

 

and then typing by Sayuti Melik

(In the originnal text, Soekarno writting some off Hatta dictated were stripped and changed from”Af-voi vo q(not clear) change to”Penjerahan”(recapitulation) and then change to”pemindahan”, the word “ dioesahakan’ change to “diselenggarakan” Djakarta 17-8-’05 Wakil2 bangsa Indonesia. This text of Proclamation’s concept than Type by Sayuti Melik with change Djakarta hari 17 Boelan 8 tahoen 05 (japanese year 2605 or 1945) , atas nama bangsa Indonesia(On behalf of Indonesian people ) Soekarno- Hatta, this original concept informed on the merdeka magazine during six moth Independent “Merdeka” by the owner B.M.Diah, and many years keep by him and then after many years he gave back to president Soeharto and now keep in MONAS monument Jakarta-auth)

(3)Other version were written by the Youngmen like Adam Malik,Sukarni,etc but didn’t listed here.

 

AUGUST,17.1945)Batavia, 17th/1945Photo: ABC Press

“Better to the hell than to becolonized again” was painted on a streetcar in Jakarta on 17 August 1945. This is the day of the Proclamasi, the day Sukarno plants the red and white flag in front of his home in Jakarta and proclaims the independent Republic of Indonesia. Two days after the surrender of Japan the situation is chaotic, and the Dutch government is not even inclined to consider acknowledging the republic.

The Indonesians will have to endure two wars and wait for more than four years until sovereignty is officially granted, on 29 December 1949.

(2)The Proclamation of Indonesian Independence

(Indonesian: Proklamasi Kemerdekaan Indonesia, or simply Proklamasi)

was read at 10.00 a.m. on Friday, August 17, 1945. The declaration marked the start of the diplomatic and armed-resistance of the Indonesian National Revolution, fighting against the forces of the Netherlands until the latter officially acknowledged Indonesia’s independence in 1949. In 2005, the Netherlands declared that they had decided to accept 17 August 1945 as Indonesia’s independence date[1]

Sukarno and Mohammad Hatta, who were appointed President and Vice-president, respectively, were the document’s signatories.

Declaration event

Sukarno, accompanied by Mohammad Hatta (right), proclaiming the independence of Indonesia.

The draft was prepared only a few hours earlier, on the night of August 16, by Sukarno, Hatta, and Soebardjo, at Rear-Admiral Maeda (Minoru) Tadashi’s house, Miyako-Doori 1, Jakarta (now the “Museum of the Declaration of Independence“, JL. Imam Bonjol I, Jakarta).

The original Indonesian Declaration of Independence was typed by Sayuti Melik.[2][3] Maeda himself was sleeping in his room upstairs. He was agreeable to the idea of Indonesia‘s independence, and had lent his house for the drafting of the declaration. Marshal Terauchi, the highest-ranking Japanese leader in South East Asia and son of Prime Minister Terauchi Masatake, was however against Indonesia’s independence, scheduled for August 24.

While the formal preparation of the declaration, and the official independence itself for that matter, had been carefully planned a few months earlier, the actual declaration date was brought forward almost inadvertently as a consequence of the Japanese unconditional surrender to the Allies on August 15 following the Nagasaki atomic bombing.

The historic event was triggered by a plot, led by a few more radical youth activists such as Adam Malik and Chairul Saleh, that put pressure on Soekarno and Hatta to proclaim independence immediately. The declaration was to be signed by the 27 members of the Preparatory Committee for Indonesian Independence (PPKI) symbolically representing the new nation’s diversity.

The particular act was apparently inspired by a similar spirit of the United States Declaration of Independence. However, the idea was heavily turned down by the radical activists mentioned earlier, arguing that the committee was too closely associated with then soon to be defunct Japanese occupation rule, thus creating a potential credibility issue.

Instead, the radical activists demanded that the signatures of six of them were to be put on the document. All parties involved in the historical moment finally agreed on a compromise solution which only included Soekarno and Mohammad Hatta as the co-signers ‘in the name of the nation of Indonesia’

Soekarno had initially wanted the declaration to be read at Ikada Plain, the large open field in the centre of Jakarta, but due to unfounded widespread apprehension over the possibility of Japanese sabotage, the venue was changed to Soekarno’s house at Pegangsaan Timur 56. In fact there was no concrete evidence for the growing suspicions, as the Japanese had already surrendered to the Allies, and the Japanese high command in Indonesia had given their permission for the nation’s independence. The declaration of independence passed without a hitch.

English translation

An English translation published by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as of October 1948 included the entire speech as read by Sukarno. It incorporated remarks made immediately prior to and after the actual proclamation. George McTurnan Kahin, a historian on Indonesia, believed that they were omitted from publication in Indonesia either due to Japanese control of media outlets or fear of provoking a harsh Japanese response.[4]

(5) The Situation before Independence proclamation ceremony at Pegangsaan Timur (D.Bassa,Merdeka Magazine,Jakarta, 17 February 1946)

In looked at the situation during Independence proclamation at East Pegangsaan , and at that memorable time, the writer was in the center of thousand youngmens.

Long before the ceremony, the sukarno’s house were different than anotther day, everybody who passed in the front of me that time with the meaning of that will be opened the new page of history.

In the front (beranda) and in the center o the house were exist many peoples , included envoys from other indonesian island ( outside Java-auth)  , the member of Independence Preparation Commitee, the other day(16 August)  they haved meeting to choose President and Vice-president Republic of Indonesia( The writer wrong , he didn’t know that the meetinh had cancelled because Sukarno-Hatta bring out to Rengasdengklok by Sukarni and Wikana-auth)

I couldn’t caculated how many youngmen and “Pelopor” guard(Barisan) which still came at this day. (Hatta later’s  information,” There were also rumours that it was(The Independence proclamation-auth) going to be read at Ikada Stadium (now was change to Market).

Therefore, may people went to Ikada, so that only about 100 people were present at the ceremony at Pegangsaan Timur; not many, but it was quite solemn, although it was short and concise.Ibid Yusni,1984,p-129)

Bung Karno and Bung Hatta Had came from the place (“Somewhere”? I think Sukarno stayed in that house because the Independence  Proclamation in the varanda at front of his house-auth) with Their Ex guard from PETA (? WHO) and the Independent Proclamation will fastly done (soon). My Heart Became “quiet” (easy) and “steady” (peace), although before feeled ‘sanctions’ (doubtness), The Independence will annouced “soon”.

The preparations of ceremony were done, the ceremony command’s(R.A.Abdoel Latif Hendraningrat)  words that asked all the participants : Famous men, youngmen and gilrs, the member of “Pelopor” (Barisan Pelopor) etc, to stand with “teratur” and must look atPresident and vice-president (the writers  haved written this article sixt month later, that is way he used the rank that time-aut)

 the ceremony with “Tertib” as still heared in my ear when write this article. He have said :”The People of Independence State must know how to honoured their “Leaders” (the writers used word President and vice prisident, he made the wrong statement again, that time Sukarno-Hatta only the National leaders-auth )

Everybody have done like the Young Opsir’s said . “The Indonesian Leaders Sukarno Hatta” in the front of the youngmen,students and Pelopor which stood in the bigger  “perkarangan” outside of the house were under the undrawned word’s feelling ( tak dapat dilukiskan dengan kata-kata), but deep in my heart I had feeled “Inocent (Kesoetjian) and happiness(kebahagiaan)”

After 55 years,this day,august.18th.2011, someone in Metro television  Jakarta told that he ,name Ilyas Karim still alive now) had “mengibarkan” the Red and white flag during Indonesia Independence Proclamation look the illustration below,a young man with short trouser in the center of the picture beside Abdul Latief Hendranigrat  (with PETA army dress and samurai  sword),also one young man hold the flag still donnot know who,why the man told now? very difficilut to confirmDr Iwan note.

(6)Situation during Independence’s Proclamation ceremony (ibid,Basa.D,1946)

The text of Indonesia Independence Proclamation was readed by Dr Moewardi, the  Ceremonial,s Chief, and after that readed together ( by all the participants included Sukarna and Hatta, many years everybody have wrong that Sukarno had read the text, because in 1950 The Radio of Republic  Indonesia (RRI) have produced the record Indonesia National Song”Indonesia Raya” arranged by Indonesian National Police’s band command by in memoriam  R.Sudjasmin with the sound of Sukarno who read the proclamarion text, I have that record. Every morning the RRI have played this record as the started’s song before the beginning of the program -auth)

R.Soewirjo on the behalf of Jakarta city ‘s people, also gave “sambutan”’s word , “We, Indonesian People have choosed our  way to confrontated the difficult situation of this time, that we have dicided as the best and right moment  to proclaimed our  Independence at this day.(Later  he became the first Mayor of Jakarta-auth)

The Ceremonial’s participant have more attantioned when Hatta have came in the front of Microphone  and told about the meaning of Indonesia Independence text.

Soekarno have made the ceremonial’s participant into the  melanchollied’s felling(terharu),  when he said :” After many centuries all of  the people of Indonesia had fighted (became to be reality-auth)  , the duty and loaded (beban)  as the people of Independence’s state have became more heavy.

Sukarno said :”All the people,  at long time  in their heart have the believed  that  the Independence of any nation must be found by the power of their own nation.Sukarno also said “The enemy willn’t declined the “Red-White” Indonesia national’s flag before stepped up the dead-bodies of 70 millions Indonesia People bodies. We only like to see the Red-white flag inclined but not declined . Lets we guarded and  took care the flag still “berkibar”,fleed, until the end of the century  ”

The ceremony were closed with “Soempah Kesetiaan” The loyalty’s of the people and sung the Indonesia  national’s Song “Indonesia Raja” ( the tradition now that the National Song only Sing with or without Band during the inclination of the Flag ,

Only two photos exist taken By Frans mendur until now

From the front

And from the backside of Flag Pole(this photo not many published,may be someone in the picture had the political problem?

 

Photographer Frans Mendur (also Frans Mendoer)

 The writer have said the Song have sung at the end of ceremony after the inclination of the flag,I think that true , because if we look at the historic’s photo by Mendur ‘s brother every bodie’s mouth especially Sukarno and Hatta still closed not sung/open , if   some one have another information please comment-auth.)

17 Agustus 1945, dari Jakarta dikumandangkan Proklamasi Kemerdekaan Indonesia oleh Soekarno-Hatta atas nama rakyat Indonesia. Rakyat di Sumatera Barat secara resmi belum dapat menerima informasi yang jelas tentang merdeka, sungguhpun masa itu Indonesia telah dalam suasana “Fajar Kemerdekaan” seperti yang telah diumumkan berdirinya Badan Penyelidik Usaha-usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan (Dokuritsu Zyumbi Chosa Kai) di Jakarta (28 Mei 1945). Suasana pada waktu itu memperlihatkan masih berkuasanya pemerintahan militer Jepang, para tawanan perangnya sudah dilepaskan. Kesatuan-kesatuan Gyu-gun dan Heiho (Lasykar Rakyat dan Tentara Sukarela Jepang) yang terdiri dari putera-putera Indonesia telah dibubarkan dan senjata-senjata dihimpun oleh pihak Jepang. Kantor-kantor pemerintahan sipil dan polisi tetap berjalan sebagaimana biasa tapi unsur pimpinan yang dipegang oleh Jepang sudah tidak menentu.

Dalam kota Padang dan sekitarnya pada masa itu terdapat beberapa unit kepolisian, seperti: Kepolisian Keresidenan Sumatera Barat (Nishi Kaiganshu Keimubu), Kantor Polisi Kota Padang (Padang Si Keisatususho), Kantor Polisi Padang Luar Kota (Padang Si-gai Keisat susho) dan Pasukan Istimewa Polisi (Tokubetsu Keisat sutai). Kantor Polisi Kota Padang berlokasi di pusat kota (sekarang: bahagian muka Polres Padang, Jl. Moh. Yamin). Kantor Polisi Padang Luar Kota di Jl. Jati (sekarang: kompleks Rumah Sakit POLRI Polda Sumbar) dan Tokubetsu-tai bermarkas di kompleks Seminari Katolik di Belantung (sekarang: kompleks Yos Soedarso, Jl. Sudirman). Semua unit-unit kepolisian tersebut dibawah pimpinan orang-orang Jepang, kecuali Polisi Padang Luar Kota mempunyai pimpinan orang Indonesia (Keishi Kaharuddin Dt. Rangkayo Basa).

Pada tanggal 21 Agustus 1945, empat orang perwira polisi yang berpangkat Keishi (Komisaris Polisi) di Sumatera Barat dipanggil oleh Keimubucho (Kepala Polisi Sumatera Barat) dan diberi tahu bahwa Perang Asia Timur Raya telah berhenti. Diminta oleh Kepala Polisi Jepang itu supaya semua senjata-senjata polisi dikumpulkan. Permintaan Keimubu-cho itu tidak dapat diterima oleh perwira-perwira polisi tersebut, malah mereka menuntut supaya pihak Jepang segera menyerahkan pimpinan kantor-kantor Polisi kepada orang Indonesia. Empat perwira polisi Indonesia itu adalah: Raden Soelaiman, Ahmadin Dt. Berbangso, Kaharuddin Dt. Rangkayo Basa dan Soelaiman Effendi.

Pada tanggal 28 Agustus 1945 malam, diadakan lagi perundingan antara pihak Indonesia (Ahmadin, Kaharuddin dan Soelaiman Effendi) dengan pihak Jepang (Keimubu/Kepolisian dan Honbu/Pemerintahan) di jalan Mawar (gedung bekas Konsulat Inggris, di sebelah hotel Muara sekarang). Kesimpulan yang dapat dikemukakan Jepang, bahwa pihak Jepang tidak akan menyerahkan kantor-kantor pemerintahan dan kepolisian kepada pihak Indonesia tanpa ada ketentuan yang diberikan oleh Pimpinan Tertinggi Tentara Sekutu di Singapura. Sebelum pertemuan diakhiri pihak Indonesia memberikan pernyataan pula: “Besok kami akan mengibarkan bendera merah putih, janganlah pihak Jepang menghalanginya”. Menjelang jam 22.00, tiga orang perwira polisi tersebut meninggalkan tempat berunding dan jalan Mawar dikawal oleh Kenpeitai (Polisi Tentara Jepang). Sesampai di persimpangan lima ujung Kampung Jawa, kelihatan Keibu (Inspektur Polisi) Bachtaruddin dari Tokubetsutai bersama beberapa orang pimpinan pemuda di Padang telah menunggu untuk mengetahui hasil perundingan dengan pihak Jepang.

Pada malam itu juga Bachtaruddin mendapat tugas dengan bantuan para pemuda-pemuda menge-rahkan massa rakyat untuk hadir meramaikan pengibaran bendera merah putih yang akan dilakukan di Kantor Besar Polisi pada esok pagi 29 Agustus 1945.

Kira-kira jam 07.00 pagi tanggal 29 Agustus 1945 di sepanjang jalan sebelah Utara lapangan Nanpo Hodo (sekarang: lapangan Imam Bonjol), dari samping kantor Pos, di muka kantor Polisi dan di muka kantor Syuchokan (sekarang: Balai Kota Padang) terlihat anggota masyarakat ramai, tua muda, pemuda-pemuda termasuk pelajar-pelajar berkelompok kelompok berkumpul ingin menyaksikan upacara pengibaran/penaikan bendera Merah Putih pada gedung-gedung pemerintah.

Dalam pada itu serdadu-serdadu Jepang bersenjata lengkap meng-adakan penjagaan-penjagaan di keliling keramaian rakyat, namun tidak ada terjadi insiden-insiden. Penggerekan bendera Merah Putih di muka Kantor Polisi Padang dilakukan oleh anggota Polisi sendiri, sedangkan penaikan bendera Merah Putih di gedung Syuchokan dilaksanakan oleh pemuda-pemuda dan yang di kantor Pos Padang bendera Merah Putih dinaikkan oleh pemuda PTT yang sebenarnya adalah juga pegawai pos, telegraf dan telepon di kota Padang. Dapat dicatat, bahwa sebelum terjadi peristiwa penaikan bendera Merah Putih di tengah kota Padang ini, telah lebih dahulu berkibar Merah Putih di markas BPPI (Balai Penerangan Pemuda Indonesia) jl. Pasar Mudik pada tanggal 21 Agustus 1945 dan di Kantor Polisi Padang Luar Kota Jalan Jati pada tanggal 23-8-1945.

 

Seselesainya upacara pengibaran bendera Merah Putih di muka Kantor Polisi Kota Padang, pada pagi 29-8-1945 itu juga peristiwa penting ini diberitakan dengan telepon kepada semua kantor Polisi Wilayah se Sumatera Barat, dijelaskan pula bahwa pimpinan kepolisian sudah berada di tangan orang Indonesia. Diinstruksikan kepada pejabat-pejabat polisi bangsa Indonesia yang tertinggi pangkatnya pada kantor Polisi Wilayah supaya mengambil alih pimpinan.

 

Malam tanggal 29-8-1945, dimulai jam 19.00 diadakan rapat para perwira senior polisi bertempat di Kantor Besar Polisi Kota Padang. Malam itu disepakati susunan dan personalia Polisi RI Sumatera Barat sebagai berikut:

  1. 1.      Raden Soelaiman, sebagai Kepala Polisi Sumatera Barat, merangkap Kepala Polisi Kota Padang

Pertempuran 10 November di Surabaya
Pertempuran 10 November 1945 di kota Surabaya diawali oleh ultimatum Mayor Jenderal Mansergh, Panglima Tentara Darat Sekutu di Jawa Timur, yang memerintahkan rakyat Surabaya untuk menyerahkan senjata yang mereka miliki.

Ultimatum ini menimbulkan kemarahan rakyat Surabaya karena dianggap menghina dan merendahkan martabat bangsa Indonesia. Setelah mengadakan pertemuan guna menindaklanjuti ultimatum tersebut,.
On November 10, 1945, fierce fighting broke out between British troops and Indonesian freedom fighters after the British lost Brigadier Mallaby got killed in battle on 30th October. British turned to an all-out combat from the sea, air and land and they largely captured Surabaya the second largest city in Indonesia in three days the newly-recruited and poorly armed army fought for 3- weeks in which thousands of people died.

Although the battle was lost, the resistance they put up against much stronger forces helped Indonesia get international support for their freedom later and every year November 10th is celebrated as the “Hero’s day” in Indonesia

Battle of Surabaya

The Battle of Surabaya was fought between pro-Independence Indonesian soldiers and militia against British and Dutch troops as a part of the Indonesian National Revolution. The peak of the battle was in November 1945. Despite fierce resistance, British and Indian troops managed to conquer Surabaya, the second-largest city in Indonesia, on behalf of the Netherlands. The Battle was the heaviest single battle of the Revolution and became a national symbol of Indonesian resistance. [2] Considered a heroic effort by Indonesians, the battle helped galvanise Indonesian and international support for Indonesian independence. 10 November is celebrated annually as Heroes’ Day (Hari Pahlawan).

By the time the Allied forces arrived at the end of October 1945, the pemuda (‘youth’) foothold in Surabaya city was described as “a strong unified fortress”. [4] Ferocious fighting erupted when 6,000 Indian troops landed in the city to evacuate European internees. Following the killing on 30 October of the British commander, Brigadier W. S. Mallaby, [4] the British retaliated with a punitive sweep that began on 10 November, under the cover of air attacks. Although the European forces largely captured the city in three days, the poorly armed Republicans fought for three weeks, and thousands died as the population fled to the countryside.

Despite the military defeat suffered by the Republicans and a loss of manpower and weaponry that would severely hamper Republican forces for the rest of the Revolution, the battle and defence mounted by the Indonesians galvanised the nation in support of independence and helped garner international attention. For the Dutch, it removed any doubt that the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators without popular support. It also had the effect of convincing Britain that wisdom lay on the side of neutrality in the Revolution; [2] within a few years, in fact, Britain would support the Republican cause in the United Nations.

1. Background

On 17 August 1945, Soekarno and Hatta declared the independence of Indonesia in Jakarta, two days after the Japanese Emperor’s surrender in the Pacific. As the news about the independence declaration spread throughout the archipelago, ordinary Indonesians felt a sense of freedom that led most to regard themselves as pro-Republican. [5] In the following weeks, power vacuums existed, both from outside and within Indonesia, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty, but also one of opportunity. [6] On 19 September 1945, a group of Dutch internees supported by the Japanese raised the Dutch flag outside the Hotel Yamato (formerly Hotel Oranje) in Surabaya, East Java. This provoked Nationalist Indonesian militia, who overran the Dutch and Japanese, and tore off the blue part of the Dutch flag, changing it into the Indonesian flag. [7] The leader of the Dutch group, Mr Pluegman, was killed because of mass anger. [7]

The senior Japanese commander in Surabaya, Vice Admiral Shibata Yaichiro, supported the Republicans and gave Indonesians ready access to arms. [2] On 3 October, he surrendered to a Dutch navy captain, the first Allied representative to arrive. Recognising the reality of Indonesian control of the city, he ordered his forces to hand over their remaining weapons to the Indonesians. The Indonesians were to hand them to the Allies, but neglected to do so. [2]

British forces brought in a small Dutch military contingent which it termed the Netherlands Indies Civil Administration (NICA). The British became worried about the increasing boldness and apparent strength of the nationalists, who attacked demoralised Japanese garrisons across the archipelago with rudimentary weapons such as bamboo spears in order to seize their arms.[citation needed] The main goals of British troops in Surabaya were the seizing of weapons from Japanese troops and Indonesian militia, taking care of former prisoners-of-war (POW), and sending the remaining Japanese troops back to Japan.

In September and October 1945 a series of incidents took place involving pro-Dutch Eurasians, and atrocities were committed by Indonesian mobs against European internees. [9] In late October and early November, the leadership of the mass Muslim organisations Nahdlatul Ulama and Masyumi, declared that war in defence of the Indonesian fatherland was Holy War, and thus an obligation for all Muslims. Kyai and their students, began to stream into Surabaya from Islamic boarding schools throughout East Java. The charismatic Bung Tomo made use of local radio to encourage an atmosphere of fanatical revolutionary fervour across the city. [2] Six thousand British Indian troops were sent into the explosive[clarification needed] city on 25 October to evacuate European internees and within three days fighting began. [2] After heavy fighting between the Indian forces and around 20,000 Indonesian armed regulars of the newly formed People’s Security Army (TKR) and mobs of 70,000-140,000 people, the British flew in the influential President Sukarno, and his ministers Hatta and Amir Sjarifuddin, and a ceasefire was achieved on 30 October. [2]

 

2. Prelude

On 26 October 1945, Brigadier A. W. S. Mallaby reached an agreement with Mr Suryo, the Republic of Indonesia’s governor of East Java, that the British would not ask Indonesian troops/militia to hand over their weapons. An apparent misunderstanding about the agreement between British troops in Jakarta (led by Lieutenant General Sir Philip Christison) and Mallaby’s troops in Surabaya was to have serious ramifications.

Initially British troops were 6,000-strong lightly armed Indian soldiers from 49th Infantry Brigade of the 23rd Indian Division. When the battle reached its peak, the British sent additional troops which consisted of 24,000 fully armed soldiers from the 5th Indian Division, 24 Sherman tanks, 24 armed aircraft, 2 cruisers and 3 destroyers. [1]

Indonesian forces consisted of 20,000 soldiers from the newly formed Tentara Keamanan Rakyat (TKR; People’s Security Troops) and estimated 100,000-120,000 irregulars. TKR was formed by the former members of Peta, a semi-military organisation during Japanese occupation. The irregulars consisted of pro-Independence mob, armed with rifles, swords, and bamboo spears. Some of their weapons were taken from the demoralised Japanese troops. [4]

3. Battle

3. 1. Beginning

On 27 October 1945, a British plane from Jakarta dropped leaflets over Surabaya urging all Indonesian troops and militia to surrender their weapons. The leader of Indonesian troops and militia was angered, seeing it as a breaking of the agreement reached with Mallaby earlier. On 28 October 1945, they attacked the British troops in Surabaya killing more than 200 fully prepared soldiers. On 30 October, in desperation, the British flew Sukarno (president of RI), Mohammad Hatta (the vice president of RI), and Amir Syarifuddin Harahap (the minister of information of Indonesia) into Surabaya. The three were seen as the only Indonesian leaders able to quell fighting between Republican and British Indian forces in which the British brigade were hopelessly outnumbered and facing annihilation. A cease fire was negotiated with Major General Hawthorn (the commander of 23rd Indian Division) and Brigadier Mallaby and immediately adhered to. Fighting, however, soon recommenced after confused communications and mistrust between the two sides, leading to the famed Battle of Surabaya. [10]

3. 2. Death of Brigadier Mallaby

The burnt-out car of Brigadier Mallaby where he was killed on 31 October 1945.

Brigadier A. W. S. Mallaby, the British brigade commander in Surabaya was killed on 30 October 1945 under circumstances that remain debated today. Brigadier Mallaby was traveling about Surabaya to spread the news about the new agreement to his troops. When his car approached the British troops post on International building near the Jembatan Merah (“Red Bridge”), his car was surrounded by Indonesian Republican militia. Fearing that their commander was about to be attacked by the militia, the British troops in the International building, led by Major Venu K. Gopal, fired into the air to disperse the Indonesian militia. [4] The militia, thinking that British were taking hostile action, fired back at the British troops. [4]

Captain R.C. Smith, who was in the stationary car, reports that a young republican shot and killed Mallaby after a short conversation. Smith then reports throwing a grenade from the car in the direction of where he thought the shooter was hiding. Although he is not sure whether it hit its target, the explosion caused the back seat of the car to ignite. [4] Other accounts, according to the same source, [4] stated that it was the explosion and not a shooter that killed Mallaby. Regardless of its exact details, Mallaby’s death was a significant turning point for the hostilities in Surabaya, and a catalyst for the battle to come. The British ordered an Indonesian surrender, and on 10 November they rolled out a large retaliatory attack. [2]

November 10 (Heroes’ Day/Hari Pahlawan)Indonesian counterattack in Surabaya. Fighting continues for three weeks. 600 Indian troops defect from the British and join the Indonesians.

November 11Sjahrir moves a proposal through KNIP to take powers away from the President and transfer them to a Prime Minister and the Cabinet. The effect is to make Sukarno’s position less powerful for a while.

The republic was soon faced with military threats to its very existence. British troops landed in Indonesia as a contingent of the Allied Forces to disarm the Japanese. Dutch troops also seized this opportunity to land in the country, but for a different purpose, – namely, to regain control of the former East Indies. At the beginning they were assisted by British troops under General Christison, a fact later admitted by Lord Louis Mountbatten, the Commander of the Allied Forces in Southeast Asia based in Myanmar. In fact, the British troops were officially only assigned to the task of repatriating Allied prisoners of war and internees.

On November 10, 1945,

fierce fighting broke out between British troops and Indonesian freedom fighters in which the British lost Brigadier Mallaby. As a result, the British turned to all-out combat from the sea, air and land. The newly-recruited army of the Republic soon realized the superiority of the British forces and withdrew from urban battles. They subsequently formed guerrilla units and fought together with armed groups of the people.

Under the pretext of representing the Allied Forces, the Dutch sent in more troops to attack Indonesian strongholds. Between 1945 and 1949 they undertook two military actions.

At dawn on 10 November, a day now commemorated in Indonesia as Heroes’ Day, British troops began a methodical advance through the city under the cover of naval and air bombardment. Fighting was heavy with British troops clearing buildings room by room and consolidating their gains. Despite the fanatical resistance of Indonesians, half the city was conquered in three days and the fighting over in three weeks. At least 6,000 Indonesians died and perhaps 200,000 fled the devastated city. [2] British and Indian casualties totalled approximately 600. [3]

East java in nov.10th 1945

, Indonesia commemorates thebloody fighting in Surabaya, East Java, on 10 November 1945,  between local patriots and the British military forces who came to help the Dutch re-conquer the country.

Actually the fighting also took place in other parts of Indonesia a.o in Bandung, West Java,  but the one in Surabaya was the fiercest one that killed so many people.

I hope that today’s commemoration would remind Indonesians that the country exists because there were patriotic men and women who sacrificed their blood, sweat and tears to defend the country’s independence

The Republicans lost much of their manpower, but it was the loss of weaponry that would severely hamper Republican military efforts for the remainder of the independence struggle. [2] The battle for Surabaya was the bloodiest single engagement of the war, and demonstrated the determination of the rag-tag nationalist forces; their sacrificial resistance became a symbol and rallying-cry for the Revolution. It also made the British reluctant to be sucked into a war it did not need, considering how stretched their resources in southeast Asia were during the period after the Japanese surrender; within a few years, in fact, Britain openly supported the Republican cause in the United Nations. It was also a watershed for the Dutch as it removed any doubt that the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators without popular support. [2] In November 1946, the last British troops left Indonesia. The “Heroes of the 10th of November” statue in Surabaya commemorates this battle. 10 November is now commemorated in Indonesia as “Heroes’ Day”, in memory of the battle.

Unique Selection of Great Commander General Sudirman

When Allied troops, as represented by the British with being followed by the Dutch landed behind him, and they demanded the Japanese weapons from our hands again, then erupted everywhere new battles. First with Japan, now with the Allies. We are not willing to give back the weapons we seized it. The new battles are not only happening in Jakarta and its surroundings, but also in Semarang, and the largest and longest in the city of Surabaya, from 28 to October 30, 1945, and from 10 to 30 November 1945. Soedirman who was appointed by the Government as the Chief of the Division of Sunan Gunung Jati or Division V, and are responsible for Banyumas and Kedu, also faced attacks from the British who came to the majors Semarang Ambarawa and Banyubiru. Thanks to the spirit of leadership Soedirman British troops can be removed. In such an atmosphere that’s Colonel Sudirman selected as Commander in Chief. Which to choose is the Division Commander and Commander of the Regiment who gathered in Yogyakarta on 12 November 1945. Rank since it was General. In that election he defeated another colon-colon. Judging from the military education, then the other candidates were far higher than that of General Sudirman. This unique selection reflects the Zeitgeist or “spirit day” at the time. That is the spirit of revolution everywhere. Our people as if stricken with fever. Fever revolution. The spirit of the revolutionary struggle raged everywhere. Waged in public meetings, organized by the Movement from the time our politicians, and by means of the new Government was formed, and therefore less than perfect. Everywhere our people actively remodel the Dutch East Indies colonial system and system of Japanese militarism. People fed up with both systems during colonialism and militarism Iampau it. People can not wait, and in the old system’s overhaul effort, not infrequently arise turmoil of chaos. Serobot-pilfer, good fortune and even oust-kidnap kidnap occasionally occur. Who is undergoing his own situation at that time, really feel the revolution, the rapid changes in force lightning. Especially among our youth. Often a quick change without the rule of “normal”. Sometimes even “anarchistis” at all. Irosionalitas and emotionality often overcome rationality and cold mind. It’s a revolution! Eine Umwertung aller Werte. Penjungkirbalikkan all kinds of value. An “inspiration razende van de historie”. An “inspiration that look rather than history.” And the “inspiration of history” was “a meeting point of all that is the nation’s consciousness with what is living under the nation’s historical consciousness.” He ontmoetingspunt, en het van het vewuste onderbewuste in de geschiedenis! “The choice of Commander Soedirman fall in such situations. Many emotions in the subconscious in determining that choice. Many are not pleased rationalistic mind into consideration the choices. Indeed the revolution has its own values. Moreover the character of popular revolution, as the revolution we had it. Agree or disagree, the reality is that the values ​​of magical emotions, instincts and vibration-mystical charismatic in determining the course of our revolution at that time. Also in the selection of Grand Commander of RI for the first time, those values ​​will determine. Of course, rational values ​​and cool thoughts Also living at that time. But the more prominent and more powerful are the values ​​of magical emotions, instincts charismatic and mystical vibrations mentioned above. And that then empties into the decision-lift Sudirman as the Commander in Chief. The chosen candidate instead of having levels rationality and high technical military skills, the product of Western education in big cities, but the chosen people was a child, raised in the village, then by a wave of revolution which catapulted to the top, and is a milestone confidence of the majority of the division commander and the commanders regiment were present at that time. The composition of divisions and regiments of our army at that time was far from perfect. Headquarters, the headquarters were uncertain, and often have to move. The Division Commander and the commanders of the regiment did not all have the military-technical skill perfect, according to measures such as the West. Skill military service may be questionable, but which can not be doubted is the struggle to defend the spirit and soul of the Proclamation, against the return of colonialism. If the choice of Commander in Chief position at the time submitted to the Central Government, then it most likely that the choice will not fall to Soedirman. And indeed, the Government at that time, executive power in the hands of PM Sjahrir want another character. Among Urip Sumohardjo, a Dutch-educated military man, but the patriotic spirit. Also proposed lane, which at the time It received the titular rank of General. In the meeting of the Division Commander and Commander of the Regiment also called names Sjarifuddin Sjahrir and Amir, who sits in Cabinet as Minister of Information Sjahrir. Apparently, the pattern of placing the army under the leadership of the civil-political power at that time was about to be applied by politicians. But the majority of the audience chose Soedirman. One thing that is unique in our revolution. Great Commander of the first is not appointed by the Government, but elected “democratically” by the division commander and regimental commander. That’s the revolutionary atmosphere of the time. That is also Zeit -Geist her, or the “spirit of the age” full of revolutionary populist soul. Elan revolutionary erupted out onto the surface of our society that is churning away in the election results reflect that. Elan revolutionary leadership of the army was entrusted to a person we Soedirman. ( dr. H. Roeslan Abdulgani Soedirman Commander Role in Revolution Indonesia, Restu Agung, Jakarta, 2004, p.32-35.

RM Suryo make a ceasefire agreement with the British army commander Brigadier General Mallaby in Surabaya on October 26, 1945. Still three days of fighting erupted in Surabaya October 28 to 30 who make Britain pressed. President Sukarno decided to come to Surabaya to reconcile both parties.

The ceasefire agreed not known sepebuhnya by indigenous fighters. Still, it contacts the weapon that killed Mallaby. This infuriated the British troops. Commander named General Mansergh Surabaya people ultimatum to hand over all weapons at November 9, 1945, or the next day Surabaya will be destroyed.

Responding to an ultimatum, President Sukarno gave a decision entirely in the hands of the government of East Java, that is, reject or give up. Governor Suryo explicitly addressed in RRI that Arek-Arek Suroboyo British ultimatum will fight until death.

So great battle erupted between the people of East Java against the British in Surabaya, which began on 10 November 1945. During three weeks of fighting which occurred in Surabaya eventually became a ghost town. Governor Suryo including the last group to leave Surabaya to then build an emergency government in Mojokerto.

September 10, 1948, RM Suryo car intercepted the rebel members of the Communist Party of Indonesia (PKI) in the middle of the woods Peleng, Kedunggalar, Ngawi. Two police officers passing by car arrested. To 3 people and then stripped naked, dragged into the woods and murdered. Bodies to 3 people found the next day by a search of firewood.

3. 3. The main battle

Bren gunners of 3/9th Jat Regiment cover the advance of their regiment against Indonesian nationalists, circa 15-16 November 1945.

Lieutenant General Sir Philip Christison was angered when he heard that Brigadier Mallaby had been killed in Surabaya. During a lull in fighting, the British brought in reinforcements and evacuated the internees. [2] An additional two brigades (9th and 123rd Indian) of the 5th Indian Division led by Major General Robert Mansergh were deployed with Sherman and Stuart tanks, 2 cruisers and 3 destroyers (including HMS Cavalier) in support. [1] [11]

Aftermath

The Brirish and Indian armed forced attacked Surabaya in November 1945

The Republicans lost much of their manpower, but it was the loss of weaponry that would severely hamper Republican military efforts for the remainder of the independence struggle. [2]

The battle for Surabaya was the bloodiest single engagement of the war, and demonstrated the determination of the rag-tag nationalist forces; their sacrificial resistance became a symbol and rallying-cry for the Revolution.

It also made the British reluctant to be sucked into a war it did not need, considering how stretched their resources in southeast Asia were during the period after the Japanese surrender; within a few years, in fact, Britain openly supported the Republican cause in the United Nations.

 It was also a watershed for the Dutch as it removed any doubt that the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators without popular support. [2] In November 1946, the last British troops left Indonesia. The “Heroes of the 10th of November” statue in Surabaya commemorates this battle. 10 November is now commemorated in Indonesia as “Heroes’ Day”, in memory of the battle.

Sewaktu Tentara Sekutu, yang diwakili oleh Inggris dengan dibuntuti oleh Belanda dibelakangnya mendarat, dan mereka menuntut senjata Jepang kembali dari tangan kita, maka meletuslah dimana-mana pertempuran-pertempuran baru. Dulu dengan Jepang, kini dengan Sekutu. Kita tidak sudi menyerahkan kembali senjata yang kita rebut itu. Pertempuran-pertempuran baru tidak hanya terjadi di Jakarta dan sekitarnya, tetapi juga di Semarang, dan yang terbesar serta paling lama adalah di kota Surabaya, dari 28 hingga 30 Oktober 1945, dan dari 10 hingga 30 Nopember 1945. Soedirman yang pada waktu itu diangkat oleh Pemerintah sebagai Panglima Divisi Sunan Gunung Jati atau Divisi V, dan yang bertanggungjawab untuk daerah Banyumas dan Kedu, menghadapi juga serangan-serangan Inggris yang datang dari jurusan Semarang menuju ke Ambarawa dan Banyubiru. Berkat semangat kepemimpinan Soedirman tentara Inggris dapat dienyahkan. Dalam suasana demikian itulah Kolonel Soedirman dipilih sebagai Panglima Besar. Yang memilih adalah para Panglima Divisi dan Komandan Resimen yang berkumpul di Yogyakarta pada tanggal 12 Nopember 1945. Pangkatnya sejak itu adalah Jenderal. Dalam pemilihan itu beliau mengalahkan colon-colon lain. Ditinjau dari pendidikan kemiliteran, maka calon-calon lain itu jauh lebih tinggi dari Jenderal Soedirman. Pemilihan yang unik ini mencerminkan Zeitgeist atau “Semangat Zaman” waktu itu. Yaitu semangat revolusi dimana-mana. Rakyat kita seakan-akan terserang demam. Demam revolusi. Semangat perjuangan revolusioner di mana-mana berkobar. Dikobarkan dalam rapat-rapat umum, yang diselenggarakan oleh kaum politisi kita dari zaman Pergerakan, dan oleh alat-alat Pemerintahan yang baru dibentuk, dan karenanya kurang sempurna. Di mana-mana rakyat kita giat merombak sistem kolonialisme Hindia-Belanda dan sistem militerisme Jepang. Rakyat muak terhadap kedua sistem kolonialisme dan militerisme masa Iampau itu. Rakyat tidak sabar lagi, dan di dalam usaha merombak sistem lama itu, tidak jarang timbul gejolak kekacauan. Serobot-menyerobot, daulat mendaulat dan malahan culik-menculik adakalanya terjadi. Siapa yang menjalani sendiri situasi pada waktu itu, benar-benar merasa adanya revolusi, adanya perubahan cepat kilat yang sedang berlaku. Terutama di kalangan pemuda kita. Seringkali perubahan cepat itu tanpa aturan “normal”. Kadangkadang malahan “anarchistis” sama sekali. Irosionalitas dan emosionalitas seringkali mengatasi rasionalitas dan pikiran dingin. Memang itulah revolusi ! Eine Umwertung aller Werte. Penjungkirbalikkan segala macam nilai. Suatu “razende inspirasi van de historie”. Suatu “ilham yang memandang daripada sejarah”. Dan “ilham sejarah” itu adalah “titik temu dari segala apa yang merupakan kesadaran bangsa dengan apa yang hidup di bawah kesadaran sejarah bangsa itu. “He ontmoetingspunt, van het vewuste en het onderbewuste in de geschiedenis!” Pilihan atas Panglima Besar Soedirman jatuh dalam situasi demikian. Banyak emosi di bawah sadar ikut menentukan pilihan itu. Banyak pikiran rasionalistis tidak berkenan masuk dalam pertimbangan pilihan tersebut. Memang revolusi mempunyai nilai-nilai sendiri. Apalagi revolusi yang berwatak kerakyatan, seperti revolusi kita dulu itu. Setuju atau tidak setuju, realitanya ialah bahwa nilai-nilai emosi magis, naluri kharismatis dan getaran-mistis ikut menentukan jalannya revolusi kita pada waktu itu. Juga dalam pemilihan Panglima Besar RI untuk pertama kalinya, nilai-nilai tersebut ikut menentukan. Sudah barang tentu nilai-nilai rasional dan pikiran dingin hidup Juga pada waktu itu.

Namun yang lebih menonjol dan lebih kuat adalah nilai-nilai emosi magis, naluri kharismatik dan getaran mistis tersebut di atas. Dan itulah yang kemudian bermuara ke dalam keputusan mengangkat Soedirman sebagai Panglima Besar.

Yang terpilih bukan calon yang memiliki kadar rasionalitas dan ketrampilan militer teknis yang tinggi, produk dari didikan Barat di kota-kota besar, melainkan yang terpilih adalah seorang anak rakyat, dibesarkan di desa, yang kemudian oleh gelombang revolusi terlempar ke atas, dan merupakan tonggak kepercayaan mayoritas para panglima divisi dan para komandan resimen yang hadir pada waktu itu. Susunan divisi serta resimen tentara kita pada waktu itu jauh dari sempurna. Markas-markas pun belum menentu, dan seringkali harus berpindah-pindah. Para Panglima Divisi serta para komandan resimen pun tidak semuanya memiliki kepandaian kemiliteran-teknis yang sempurna, seperti menurut ukuran-ukuran Barat.

Kepandaian kemiliterannya boleh diragukan, namun yang tidak dapat diragukan adalah semangat dan jiwa perjuangannya membela Proklamasi, melawan kembalinya kolonialisme.

Andaikata pilihan jabatan Panglima Besar pada waktu itu diserahkan kepada Pemerintah Pusat, maka besar sekali kemungkinan bahwa pilihan tidak akan jatuh kepada Soedirman. Dan memang, Pemerintahan yang pada waktu itu kekuasaan eksekutifnya berada di tangan PM Sjahrir menginginkan tokoh lain.

Di antaranya Urip Sumohardjo, seorang tokoh militer didikan Belanda, tetapi berjiwa patriotik. Juga dikemukakan Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono, yang pada waktu itu mendapat pangkat Jenderal Tituler. Dalam rapat para Panglima Divisi dan Komandan Resimen disebut juga nama-nama Sjahrir dan Amir Sjarifuddin, yang duduk sebagai Menteri Penerangan dalam Kabinet Sjahrir.

Rupanya pola menempatkan pimpinan ketentaraan di bawah kekuasaan sipil-politis pada waktu itu hendak diterapkan oleh kaum politisi. Namun mayoritas hadirin memilih Soedirman. Suatu hal yang unik dalam revolusi kita. Panglima Besar yang pertama tidak diangkat oleh Pemerintah, melainkan dipilih secara “demokratis” oleh para panglima divisi dan komandan resimen. Itulah suasana revolusio

ner pada waktu itu. Itulah juga Zeit-geist-nya, atau “semangat zaman” revolusioner yang penuh dengan jiwa kerakyatan. Elan revolusioner yang meletus keluar ke atas permukaan masyarakat kita yang sedang bergolak mencerminkan diri dalam hasil pemilihan tersebut.

Elan revolusioner tersebut mempercayakan kepemimpinan tentara kita kepada seorang pribadi Soedirman. (Dr. H. Roeslan Abdulgani Peranan Panglima Besar Soedirman dalam Revolusi Indonesia, Restu Agung, Jakarta, 2004, hal.32-35.

 Tapi walaupun demikian, moral pasukan kita makin tinggi berkat kemenangan yang dicapai.
Karena merasa terdesak, Belanda meminta kepada Pimpinan RI agar tembak menembak dihentikan dengan dalih untuk memastikan garis demarkasi yang membatasi wilayah kekuasaan masing-masing.

Dengan adanya demarkasi baru, pasukan-pasukan yang berhasil merebut tempat-tempat di dalam kota, terpaksa ditarik mundur

The Indonesian Pamphlet,

(not date,no name)

Independence OR DIE?
NOT!
HIDOEP (LIFE), TO INDONESIA RAYA, PROSPEROUS, INDEPENDENT!
Slogan “Freedom or Death” is very dangerous for the State and people of Indonesia, for which many are interested in her youth Indonesia! Thousands of youths have led to death by the rebels to use this slogan!
Indonesia is very membutuhi (requires) the youths to Indonesia menyusus new prosperous, safe and merdeka.Amat dibutuhi to later become pemimpindisemua circles, whether in government or in economics, engineering and commerce.
Before the war was very kekurabngan Indonesia Indonesia educated people (scientists), even those who attended high school or technique is very less (a little). Lack of seeds for the coming age it becomes even greater, than the cause (because) in almost all the time Jepangsekolah Japan was closed and thereafter fall, teaching is also very less so than Sebat (result) confusion (confusion) common.
Among the most important question now is added as soon as possible Indonesian youth are educated, but rather the educated son of Mother Earth being led to death by insurgents using a false slogan that! From where the hell’s motto? Native Japanese dai! As the saying Paduka Tuan Soetan Sjahrir in his essay “Our Struggle” page 8 “Oeh because he (our youth) are not knowledgeable others, he organized cra propaganda and agitation in people a lot of it like he saw and taught the Japanese, that is fascistis, very sad state of the soul kita.Peganganbya many times the youth was none other than the motto Independence or Death.
Free or die motto is none other than the teaching of Japanese “Jibaku”. What is it biased jibakyu bring victory Japanese bai? Of not! Japan fell, collapsing and blocking the Indonesian people themselves hold the rank and high work and leadership among industry trade, technical and general economic.the Japanese  means   so lack of  leaders of Indonesia and forced to wear a lot of foreigners, that is his hope, the Japanese! ! Batalkanlah(donnot confirmation) mean hell it’s Japanese! Disposal should be the motto of the Free fake Dead or  Live helped lead Indonesia to a bias toward security, prosperity, justice and freedom!\

Original info:

MERDEKA ATAU MATI?

TIDAK!!

HIDOEP(HIDUP) ,SUPAYA INDONESIA RAYA,MAKMUR DAN MERDEKA!!

Semboyan”Merdeka atau Mati” amat berbahaya bagi Negara dan rakyat Indonesia,sebab yang banyak tertarik olehnya pemuda-pemuda Indonesia!Ribuan pemuda-pemuda sudah digiring ke kematian oleh si pemberontak dengan memakai semboyan ini !!

Indonesia amat membutuhi(membutuhkan) pemuda-pemuda untuk menyusus Indonesia baru yang makmur,aman dan merdeka.Amat dibutuhi untuk dikemudian hari menjadi pemimpindisemua kalangan,baik di pemerintahan maupun di ekonomi,teknik dan perdagangan.

Sebelum perang Indonesia sudah amat kekurabngan orang Indonesia terpelajar(ilmuwan),malah orang yang bersekolah menengah atau teknik amat kurang(sedikit).Kekurangan bibit untuk zaman yang akan datang itu menjadi lebih besar lagi,dari sebab (oleh karena) di waktu Jepangsekolah hamper semua ditutup dan sesudahnya Jepang jatuh,pengajaran juga amat kurang sekali dari sebat (akibat) kekalutan(kekacauan) umum.

Antara soal yang terpenting sekarang yaitu tambahnya secepat mungkin pemuda Indonesia yang terpelajar,tetapi sebaliknya anak Ibu Pertiwi yang terpelajar digiring ke kematian oleh pemberontak dengan memakai semboyan palsu itu! Dari mana semboyan Jahanam itu?? Asalnya dai Jepang! Seperti kata Paduka Tuan Soetan Sjahrir di karangannya “Perjuangan Kita” halaman 8”Oeh karena ia(pemuda kita) tidak berpengetahuan lain, cra ia mengadakan propaganda dan agitasi pada rakyat banyak itu seperti dilihatnya dan diajarkan dari jepang,yaitu fascistis,sangat menyedihkan keadaan jiwa pemuda kita.Peganganbya banyak kali tak lain dari pada semboyan Merdeka atau Mati.

Semboyan merdeka atau mati tak lain daripada pengajaran Jepang”Jibaku”.Apa jibakyu itu bias membawa kemenangan bai Jepang?tentu tidal! Jepang jatuh,runtuh dan menghalangi orang Indonesia sendiri memegang pangkat dan pekerjaan tinggi dan juga pimpinan di kalangan dagang industry,teknik dan ekonomi umum.Maksudnya jepang supaya Indonesia kekurangan pemimpin bangsa Indonesia dan terpaksa memakai orang asing banyak-banyak,yaitu harapannya,orang Jepang!!!! Batalkanlah maksud Jahanam si jepang itu! Buangkan semboyan palsu Merdeka atu Mati. Hiduplah supaya bias turut menuntun Indonesia kearah keamanan,kemakmuran ,keadilan dan kemerdekaan!!

Sumatra:  1945 – 1946

Mr John Searby has kindly allowed us to publish his photographs here

This selection of photographs is from John’s time in Sumatra and includes Padang, Medan and Palembang. John served as an MT Driver, with the 1st Battalion, The Royal Lincolnshire Regiment.

Some pictures on this page include Japanese soldiers. According to John, British Troops were sent in to Sumatra with orders to disarm the Japanese, but it was soon evident the Japanese were not at all keen to agree. Disarming them was not possible, but they reluctantly agreed to taking orders from the British, whilst keeping up the appearance of governing the majority of the Country themselves.

The Picture  from Padang in 1945

By March 1946

 the struggle front had been weakened by resignations and defections. Emboldened in its newly won support, the Republican government then launched a counter coup effectively pre-empting the emergence of a socialist current in the nationalist revolution.

 DR OEI BOEN ING SOLO’S RECEIPT OF PATIENT BILLING
Illustration Caption  Oen Revenue 1946. still used the Dai nippon Java revenue 10 cent.
.

The receipt still used the Dai Nippon Java revenue without overprint (late used).

 
:::dr.Oen Boen Ing ::: picture

Dr. Oen Boen Ing became involved in polyclinics Jisheng Tsi Sheng Yuan Yuanturned, When the war of independence came,polyclinics turned into makeshift hospitals, accommodating the fighters and refugees.

According to the testimony Soelarso, Chairman of the Society of Ex-Army Student Detachment Rumpun II Brigade XVII, “… regardless of the shot Netherlands, Dr Oen and out of military areas to treat the soldiers …”

(Name of clinic or Jisheng Tsi Sheng Yuan Yuan it means the Institute of Life Rescue. This clinic was founded by eight young men who joined the Chinese Tsing Hua Chiao Hui Nien (abbreviated HCTNH),
which means Chinese Youth Association. They are Jap Kioe Ong, Tan Kiong Djien, The Tjhioe Tik, Sie Ngo Spot, Sie Boen Tik, Gan Kok Sien, Tiauw Tan An, and Jap Pole Liem.
In 1935 Dr. Oen Boen Ing became involved in the ministry of the clinic and subsequently became the founding pemprakarsa Health Foundation Tsi Sheng Yuan)

Angka tiga punya makna penting
Sebagai dokter, Oen Boen Ing terkenal tidak membeda-bedakan pasiennya, apapun juga kelompok etnis, suku, agama, dan kelas sosialnya. Bahkan pasien dibiarkannya mengisi ataupun tidak mengisi kotak uang yang terletak di ruang praktiknya secara suka rela. “Tugas seorang dokter adalah menolong,” demikian semboyan kehidupan dan pelayanan Dr. Oen.

Selain itu, Dr. Oen selalu membuka praktiknya sejak pk. 3.00 dini hari. Konon ini dihubungkan dengan hari kelahirannya, 3 Maret 1903. “Maka semua karya saya sebaiknya dimulai dengan angka 3,” begitu katanya. Angka tiga memang menjadi ciri kehidupan Dr. Oen Boen Ing. Nomor telepon di rumahnya 3333.

Bangunan pertama di Rumah Sakit Kandang Sapi yang didirikannya, dinamai Triganda, dan diresmikan pada 3 Maret 1963.

Ketika Dr. Oen meninggal dunia pada 1982, rakyat banyak sungguh merasakan kehilangan yang besar. Hal ini tampak dari kehadiran ribuan rakyat kecil kepadanya yang berdiri di tepi jalan untuk memberikan penghormatan mereka yang terakhir kepada orang yang telah berjasa memberikan kehidupan yang lebih sehat kepada mereka di tengah-tengah keberadaan mereka yang serba kekurangan.

Penghargaan
Karena jasa-jasanya dan pengabdiannya yang tanpa pamrih kepada masyarakat, Dr. Oen Boen Ing mendapatkan penghargaan Satya Lencana Bhakti Sosial dari pemerintah Republik Indonesia pada 30 Oktober 1979. Beliau juga dianugerahi gelar kebangsawanan oleh Sri Mangkunegoro VIII Solo, dengan nama Kanjeng Raden Toemenggoeng Oen Boen Ing Darmohoesodo. Pada 24 Januari 1993 Sri Mangkunegoro IX menaikkan gelarnya dari Kanjeng Raden Toemenggoeng menjadi Kanjeng Raden Mas Toemenggoeng Hario Oen Boen Ing Darmohoesodo

Dr Iwan Notes


Dr Oei Boen Ing in his lattest life have help many Indonesian poor patients like Becak drivers with free of charge for his private medical practise at his own home almost 30 years ( in this patient billing he charge only 200 Rupiah from March 1945 to February 1946 consultation and medicines).

Dr Oei Boen Ing were the Medical doctor hero in Solo and his name was using to the name of a big NGO Hospital at Solo. (Dr Iwan S suggest Indnesian Menistry of Health suggest to the Indonesian President SBY to honor him as the Indonesia National Health Hero in August ,17th. 2010 ,may be together with another Tionghoa (ex Chinese Overseas) National hero like Indonesia naval heros John Lee ).

This very rare memoriable cover was better to show in special frame at Dr Oei Boen Ing Hospital Solo, if the hospital want that show during Indonesian Indepence Day  Anniversary in August,17th please)

(b)Penjara di Zaman Repoeblik

Pada hari sabtu,22 maret 1947 setelah minta izin dari tuan R.P. Bahroedin, pemimpin Pejara Daderah Malang, wartawan kitanbersama fotograaf Malang POst melangkah pintu yang meisahkan ribuan orang hukuman dari dunia luar.Kepala keamanan penjara tuan soentro menyambut kita dengan ramah-tamah. Kesan pertama yang kita dapat dari dalam penjara adalah suasana tenang dan tentram serta merasa seperti masuk dlam satu pusat  pemberi pekerjaaan yang walaupun ada sedikit primitif(sederhana) tapi cukup berguan untuk orang yang dipenjarakan, Kemudian kita melihat rumah sakit yang diatur begitu resik,hingga tidak perlu malu dengan rumah sakit biasa, tetapi persediaan obatnya masih kurang. Seblum seorang hukuman baru dapat dicampurkan dengan orang hubuman lain, mereka dimasukkan dalm blok orang baru atau karantina seperti  pulau Onrust, orang baru ditilik kesehatannya oleh dokter penjara Dr Drajat, apabila kesehatannya tidak membahhayakan barulah orang baru itu dicampurkan dengan orang hukuman lain, dalam ruamh sakit diberikan perawatan baik malah ada yang diberei minum susu sehingga mereka merasa kerasan disnan. Dari rumah sakit kita mnuju ke bermacam pekerjaaaan , seperti tempat memintal,menenum,mengayam tikar,bengkel besi,pembikinan barang dari kulit. Yang tidak bekerja disini,bekerja  cocok tanam. buah-buahan dan sayuran.kita melihat kelas buta huruf ,dimana kebetulan gurunya sedang mengajar sejumlah anak umur 16 tahun kebawah. Orang dewasa juga diajar surat menyurat. Akhirnya kita sampai kedapur, bagan penting karewna masyarakat sudah memasrahkan orang yang berdosa sehingga mereka jangan kekurangan makan dn menderita busung lapar, mereka dihukum perbuatannya dan tidak boleh menghukum jiwanya,  DSelain itu juga kita melihat penjara wanita,mereka juga  dapat bantal empuk dan pakaian perempuan penjara,sarung dan bajukurung biru yang s Semua serba baik,mereka tidak tidur diatas beton tetapi diatas ranjang dan sifat pe njara seperti rumah sekolah. (Perlu dibaca oleh pemimpin penjara masa kini untuk dijadikan contoh)

Comment by Henriko simatupang(FB)

Henriko Mei Erikson Simatupang menurut beberapa senior, sampul2 yg berkategori philatelic used (not real used) spt ini memang tdk bisa diikutkan dlm kompetisi…tetapi terkadang justru di sampul2 spt ini bisa diperoleh fakta keberadaan beberapa item tertentu yg justru tdk/belum muncul di katalog atau di pasaran. jadi ini bisa dibuat bahan riset filateli. selain itu jika sampul2 tsb msh lengkap dgn resi registernya, bisa diperkirakan kapan kira2 prangko tsb di release. kenapa dikira2 ? karena surat edaran pos ttg penerbitan benda filateli pada zaman revolusi sulit diperoleh. kalau bpk lihat di ZWP itu diistilahkan dgn vbd & lbd…kalau istilah pak Agus Wibawanto cap ini adalah cbf (cancelled by favour)(still in reaseach the originality of the CDS)

Read more comment from Indonesian Phillatelist

Sangadji Stamp Sy turut setuju dengan pendapat Mbak Fitriyeni Suharto, pada saat tahun-tahun itu 1945-1947 rasanya “belum ada” negatif thinking to mencari keuntungan sendiri melalui sampul, perangko dan cap pos, Namun ada baiknya juga perlu mempelajari maksud-maksud dari si pembuat tsb?

(Dr Iwan note, during that time there one postal history CTO gang from Medan Sajoer St Maharadja, Padang Gho kong Liang, and Surabaya Phoa Lim Kway, they made many CTO covers, but now we found new CTO covers like this took Jong Koe Medan which never seen before 1990)

In early Mei 1947, S.M.Amin was pointed as the Young Guvernour(Gubernur Muda) North Sumatra, by telegram from Vice president Moh,Hatta via Resident Aceh T.Chik Myhamaad Daudsyah.,before he was the chief executive of DPR Aceh , at last Mei he went to Pematang siantar where the capital of Sumatra Province ,in order to meet the Govermur Sumatra Tewuku Mohammads Hassan where he was inagurated , before the capital at Medan but  moving because the Dutch pressuded. Several days working, S.M.Amin must solved the LOGAM (metal) and Marsuse affairs.

original informations:

LOGAM affair,

Peristiwa ini terjadi berkaitan dengan perasaan tidak puas dalm kalangan masyarakat yang terbatas pada mereka yang berasal dari  Tapanuli utara, dengan tuduhan bahwa  Pemerintah meng anak tirikan  mereka, katanya seluruh pejabat berasal dari Aceh,tidak ada yang berasal dari tapanuli utara. Untuk menu nnukkan rasa tidak puas, mereka mengakan suatu demonstrasi , yang hampir menimbulkan suatu pertumpahan darah.Syyukur situasi dapat dikuasai . Namum keadaan tetap dirasa gawat sehingga Pemerintah tetap waspada dan merasa perlu dikeluarkan sebuah Maklumat  Peringatan yang ditujukan kepada rakyat  agar kejadian perpecahan agar tidak terjad9i,maklumat ini ditanda tangani oleh Gubernur Muda S>M>Amin, REsiden Aceh T.Muhammad Daudsyah dan Residen Tapanuli Dr F.L.Tobing.

MARSUSE AFFAIR

Tantangan kedua yang dihadapi adalah dari pihak “Lasjkar Marsuse” dibawah pimpinan Timur pane. Lasjkar Marsuse ini adalah gabungan beberapa lasjkar yang bersatu dan menuntut suatu pengakuan resmi oleh Pemerintah serta  dana pernelanjaan setiap bulan sejumlah Rp.120.000.000,-,suatu jumalh yang tidak sedikit seh8ingga tuntutan itu ditolak, akibatnya Timur Pane dengan beberapa pengawalnya kemudian mendatangi gubernur muda sumatra  utara dan berusaha memperoleh uang tersebut dengan bujukan-bujukan. Bujukan ini juga tidak berhasil ,sehingga keluar ancaman dengan kata=kata:”BILAMANA WAKIL PRESIDEN NANTI TIBA DI PEMATANG SIANTAR” (wakil presiden memang  sedang ditunggu kedatangannya dari Bukittinggi)”AKAN SAYA USAHAKAN MEMPEROLEHNYA DARI BELIAU DAN BILAMANA TIDAK BERHASIL,MAKA AN TERJADI BANJIR DARAH”. Tetapi yang terjadi adalah banjir darah sebagai akibat serbuan belanda kearah daerah republik, serbuan yang dikenal dengan sebutan “Politioneel Actie”.

(2)This is important news as soon submitted to the vice president M. Hatta. meanwhile sma news from the TNI and police followed, so that immediate action should be taken to save the Vice President who happened to be in Sumatra Siantar.Gubernur Pematang instructed to his car, Chrysler’s 7-seat (white elephant) immediately covered with leaves so that the color white no longer visible from the ship flying the Dutch.

 

(3)After consultation with the Vice-President Hatta, Governor sumatra plan to bring him to Brastagi, through Kananjahe and so on through Sidikalang to Bukittinggi. For that SM Amin ordered his driver to fill a full tank for the trip jauh.SEmentara Car gurbenur Sumatra past noon ready wrapped and covered with leaves.

(4)Rombongan just waiting for the arrival of Governor Mr Young. SM.Amin, so that can go together, but setalh how long to wait, he never dtang, his car was not returned from filling the fuel (BBM). Apparently accomplice in Siantar NICA has begun to play a role.

 

(5)Therefore it was already two o’clock in the afternoon (PM) then took the decision to Sumatra Guernur bernagkat to Brastagi, Mr. SM Amin was able to catch up later. Head with rush to Brastagi need to done in order  to prevent the Vice President was arrested by Dutch troops, it turns out later that the Dutch troops entered the town of siantar approximately 45 minutes after Vice President Moh.Hatta entourage departed, the group survived until the Brastagi afternoon.

Dalam bulan July 1947,

 wakil Presiden Mohammad hatta tiba di pematang siantar dalam peninjauan ke sumatera, sesudah beberapa ahari beliau berada disana.Gubernur sumatra menerima berita dari seorang intel pribadi, bahwa tentara Belanda sudah menduduki kota Tebing tinggi dan terus menuju kota Pematang siantar,sedang dari pihak TNI dan Polisi belum ada berita apa-apa.

 berita penting ini segera disampaikan kepada wakil Presiden M.Hatta. sementara itu berita yang sma dari TNI dan Polisi menyusul,sehingga segera perlu diambil tindakan untuk menyelamatkan Wakil Presiden yang kebetulan berada di Pematang Siantar.

Gubernur Sumatera menginstruksikan supaya mobilnya,Chrysler 7-seat(Gajah Putih) segera ditutup dengan daun-daun agar warna putihnya tidak kelihatan lagi dari kapal terbang Belanda.

 Sesudah bermusyawarah dengan Wakil Presiden Hatta,Gubernur sumatra merencanakan untuk membawa beliau ke Brastagi,melalui Kabanjahe dan seterusnya melalui Sidikalang ke Bukittinggi.

Untuk itu S.M Amin menyuruh supirnya untuk mengisi bensin penuh untuk perjalanan jauh.Sementara Mobil gurbenur Sumatera lewat tengah hari siap dibalut dan ditutup dengan daun-daunan

.Berhubung waktu itu adalah bulan Puasa,maka serba sedikit makanan untuk berbuka puasa yang sudah disiapkan,terpaksa dibawa pula dengan mobil yang digunakan Wakil Presiden dan gubernur Sumatra.Anak dan Isteri Gubernur Sumatra dan seluruh barang-barang yang ada dirumahnya terpaksa ditinggal di siantar,tidak cukuk waktu lagi untuk mengurusnya,diserahkan saja kepada Allah SWT.

Rombongan hanya menunggu kedatangan Gubernur Muda Mr.SM.Amin,supaya dapat berangkat bersama, tetapi setalh menunggu berapa lama, ia tak kunjung datang,ternyata mobilnya belum kembali dari mengisi bahan bakar(BBM).

Rupanya kaki tangan NICA di siantar sudah mulai memainkan peranannya,. Oleh karena waktu sudah menunjukkan jam dua siang(PM) maka Guernur Sumatra mengambil keputusan untuk bernagkat ke Brastagi,sedang Mr SM Amin bisa menyusul kemudian.

 Berangkat dengan bvuru-buru ke Brastagi perlu duilakukan untuk mencehag Wakil Presiden ditangkap oleh tentara Belanda,ternyata kemudian bahwa tentara belanda masuk kota Pematang siantar kira-kira 45 menit setlah rombongan Wakil Presiden Moh.Hatta berangkat,rombongan selamat sampai di Brastagi sore hari.

In July 1947

the Dutch launched a military offensive to reinforce their urban bases and to intensify their attacks on guerrilla strongholds. The offensive was, however, put to end by the signing of the Renville Agreement on January 17, 1948. The negotiation was initiated by India and Australia and took place under the auspices of the UN Security Council.

It was during these critical moments that the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) stabbed the newly- proclaimed Republic of Indonesia in the back by declaring the formation of the “Indonesian People’s Republic” in Madiun, East Java. Muso led an attempt to overthrow the Government, but this was quickly stamped out and he was killed.

December 19th.1948

Dutch version

the second in December 1948 and January 1949. The operations took place during the time of the Indonesian fight for independence

Second Police Action (Operatie Kraai)
Dutch military aggression II
The second Politionele Acties was aimed at forcing the Republic to cooperate with the Dutch government in the implementation of the federalist policy as stipulated in the Linggadjati Agreement.

 The purpose was to organize the new Indonesia as a federal state that would remain closely associated with the Netherlands. Alleged breaches of the armistice by the Indonesians was also a motivator.

During this operation (kraai = Dutch ‘crow’), Yogyakarta was directly attacked and the Indonesian administration, including president Sukarno, was put under arrest. Furthermore, all major cities and roads on Java were occupied

In both ‘police actions’,

more than 100,000 Dutch troops were involved. This number makes obvious the fact that the operations did not constitute limited police actions as claimed by
the Dutch government, but full-fledged military campaigns.

 Overall, the Dutch suffered approximately 5,000 fatalities, the death toll on the Indonesian side is estimated to be as high as 150,000.

 

What really Happened read more the history fact below compiled by Dr Iwan suwandy,MHA

Dengan terjadinya Agresi Militer Belanda II pada tanggal 19 Desember 1948, maka berakhirlah masa tugas Polisi Keamanan di sekitar garis tersebut.
Militerisasi Polisi

 

 

Agresi Militer Belanda II
Pada tanggal 19 Desember 1949 Belanda melancarkan agresinya yang ke-2 dengan menyerang ibukota yang pada waktu itu ada di Yogyakarta. Dalam waktu singkat, Belanda berhasil menguasai Pangkalan Udara Maguwo serta kota. Tidak hanya Yogya, Belanda juga menyerang daerah lain yang menjadi teritorial RI. Di Yogya Mobbrig ikut menyerang tentara Belanda yang akan masuk ke dalam kota dan puncaknya dalam serangan umum 1 Maret Mobbrig ikut terlibat aktif di dalam penyerangan tersebut.

Organisasi Kepolisian Selama Agresi Militer II
Setelah Yogyakarta berhasil diduduki oleh pasukan Belanda, polisi bersama alat negara lainnya meninggalkan kota. Di luar kota berpusat Pemerintahan Militer di bawah pimpinan Panglima Besar Jenderal Sudirman yang dibantu oleh Staf Kemanan yang terdiri dari Jaksa Agung Tentara sebagai Kepala Staf, KKN dan Komandan Korps Polisi Militer Jawa masing-masing sebagai Wakil Kepala I dan II.

(1)On December,19th.1948 in the morning Dutch soldiers boombing Bukittinggi, the Ducth begun attacked repoeblic Indonesia. at afrternoon Mr Syafruddin Prawiranegara,Menteri kemamukarn RI whic stayed at bukittingi from the central gouvernment ,with Colonel Hidaya, The comandenemen comandant TNI Sumatra who just take the command from Mayor General Soehardjo Hardjowardojo, vist Mr T.M.Hassan the chief of central Commisariat at his house at BGarai(valley) Sianok Bukittinggi, for meeting aboutmthe movement against the Dutch army, they didnot know the situation of presieenrt and vice president Repoeblic Indonesia.this day no info from Yogja.Mr Sjafruddin Prawira negara told that in order to save the stae NRI, he accepeted to built PDRI(pemerintah daruata republic Indonesa-emergengy gouvernment RI) and at night ,9.00 PM the NRI official will move out Bukittinggi to Halaban (onderneming or Plantation) near Payakumbuh.

(2)Second Dutch “police action” begins at 5:30 A.M. without warning. Yogya falls to the Dutch.Emergency government for Indonesia is declared (PDRI) at Payakumbuh nearby under Sjafruddin Prawiranegara. Soedirman radios his immediate support for the emergency government.Civil government of republic, including Sukarno, Hatta, Sjahrir, allows itself to be captured, hoping to outrage world opinion; Sukarno and Sjahrir are taken into Dutch custody, and eventually flown to Bangka. look the illustraion of sukarno.hatta and Haji Agus Salim at Maguwo Airport when the dutch took them to custody in Bangka.

the illustratio of Hotel Manumbing at bangka whete Bung Karno,bung Hatta were exile.

Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX of Yogya remains in his palace, and does not leave during the entire Dutch occupation.Dutch occupy Bukittinggi.Tan Malaka escapes again during the confusion.

Panglima Besar Soedirman
Soedirman is warmly remembered today as perhaps the greatest hero of the revolution. Towards the end of the fighting, he fell ill and directed troops from his sickbed.Soedirman was another complex character in the revolutionary era. He had been impressed by Japanese military traditions and the spirit of bushido; yet he was also thought to be sympathetic to the leftist movement of Tan Malaka. He was one of the military figures who was not completely trusting of the political leadership (such as Sjahrir), as to them the political leadership seemed more interested in compromise than victory. This feeling was certainly strengthened when the entire political leadership allowed itself to be taken captive by the Dutch on December 19, 1948.

On 19 December 1948

at 05:30 am Maguwo airfield was bombed by the Dutch Mitchell bombers (B 25) is immediately followed by a battalion of troops jumping green beret who was assigned to seize the flying field Maguwo. On the morning of this miraculous Dutch terdfiri aircraft from aircraft Spitfire, Mustang, Lockheed and Mitchell seemed hovering above the city of Djokja which soon opened the attack by shooting at and dropping bombs in several places.

They realize vahw abelanda tealh their attacks. Sekalipunkesatuan in Maguwo too small, yet still provided resistance under the leadership of opsit picket Kasmiran, patriotic resistance which lasted bravely than 06 000 hours (AM) until 7:00 to finally air cadet kasmiran with approximately 40 members of his unit killed on the field of service. However the new field at 08.00 hours seluurh Maguwo successfully controlled by the Dutch, they immediately opened the air bridge to lower Semarang Djokja Engineers heavy equipment and transport equipment for eprsiapan seize Djokja. Meanwhile the relationship anatara base Maguwo Djokja disconnected so the situation can not be known at all by the dreamers who are in town n RI Djokja. Dutch movement from the city Djokja Maguwo dimuali sjak morning and at 14:15 (PM) they arrived on the edge of the east and from here they try to occupy the city. Teridir of their movement and group movement setaip memepunyai groups specific tasks to further isolate the town in order to soldiers of the Republic of Indonesia that will try to get out of town can be prevented.

Kami mengetahui,bahwa dengan perbuatan senjata mereka, belanda mungkin akan dapat merebut dan menduduki beberapa tempat yang penting, akan tetapi tidak mungkin mereka dapat mematahkan semangat perjuangan kita atau mengurung =kan kemerdekaaan bangsa Indonesia yang tealh kita insyafkan dan pertahankan selama ini.

Kemerdekaan kita yang telah kita Proklamirkan pada tanggal 17 Agustus 1945 dan telah meresap pada jiwa kita,mustahil dapatr ditindas dengan kekerasan. Marilah bangsaku,kita pertahankan tanah air dan kemerdekaan kita dengan segala tenaga yang ada percayalah kemenangan pasti akan pada kita .Isja allah.

 Saya agak heran mendengar suara keapal terbang dari arah selatan dan setelah melihat beberapa kapal terbang besar, saya yakin bahwa kapal terbang tersebut bukan milik Republik Indonesia, apalagi sesudah bewberapa waktu terdengar ledakan-ledakan bom yang cukup mendebarkan hai.

Sampai di tempat, ternyata orang-orang mula verkumpul.Sebelum dan sesudah upacara gereja saat berbicara mereka menyatakan bahwa sedang diadakan latihan oleh Angkatan Udara dan Angkatan darat Republik Indonesia di Maguwo dan Yogjakarta.

 Mereka saya biarkan dalam pandangannya, saya sengaja tidak membantah mereka,karena memamng tidak tahu benar,tetapi dalam hati tidak percaya akan kebenaran pendapat mereka. Muali tengah hari, mengalir rombongan demi rombongan pengungsi dari Yogjakarta dengan barang-barangnya ke arah Selatan. Kemana? tempat saudara,kenalan? Kebanyakan tanpa mengertti secara pasti,mau kemana?

Ternyata,kota Yogjakarta diduduki oleh tentara Belanda. Suasana mencekam rakyat. Rasa ketakutan,binggung,khawatit, seolah-olah setiap saat akan ada serbuan atau serangan dari pihak musuh.

Dalam waktu dua tiga harimsudah terdengar perintah membungi hanguskan 2 pabrik gula dan gedung=gedung bangunan yang dapat f=dipergunakan pihak tentara Belanda sebagai markas dan sekaligus uang ORI tidak berlaku lagi.

Dalam perkembangannya terjadi pergantian pimpinan militer, Divisi X dirubah menjadi Divisi IV, dengan Panglimanya Mayor Jenderal Soetarto dan divisi ini dikenal dengan nama Divisi Panembahan Senopati, yang membawahi 5 Brigade tempur.

 Diantaranya Brigade V dibawah pimpinan Suadi dan mempunyai Batalyon XIV dibawah komando Mayor Slamet Rijadi, yang merupakan kesatuan militer yang dibanggakan. Pasukannya terkenal dengan sebutan anak buah “Pak Met”.

Selama agresi Belanda II,

 pasukannya sangat aktif melakukan serangan gerilya terhadap kedudukan militer Belanda, pertempuran demi pertempuran membuat sulit pasukan Belanda dalam menghadapi taktik gerilya yang dijalankan Slamet Rijadi.

Namanya mulai disebut-sebut karena hampir di-setiap peristiwa perlawanan di kota Solo selalu berada dalam komandonya.

.

Dalam palagan perang kemerdekaan II, Slamet Rijadi dinaikkan pangkatnya menjadi Letnan Kolonel, dengan jabatan baru Komandan “Wehrkreise I” (Panembahan Senopati )yang meliputi daerah gerilya Karesidenan Surakarta, dan dibawah komando Gubernur Militer II pada Divisi II, Kolonel Gatot Subroto.

Dalam perang kemerdekaan II

inilah Let.Kol. Slamet Rijadi, membuktikan kecakapannya sebagai prajurit yang tangguh dan sanggup mengimbangi kepiawaian komandan Belanda lulusan Sekolah Tinggi Militer di Breda Nederland. Siang dan malam anak buah Overste (setingkat Letnan Kolonel) J.H.M.U.L.E. van Ohl digempur habis-habisan, dengan penghadangan, penyergapan malam, dan sabotase. Puncaknya ketika Letkol. Slamet Rijadi mengambil prakarsa mengadakan “serangan umum kota Solo” yang dimulai tanggal 7 Agustus 1949, selama empat hari empat malam. Serangan itu membuktikan kepada Belanda, bahwa gerilya bukan saja mampu melakukan penyergapan atau sabotase, tetapi juga mampu melakukan serangan secara frontal ketengah kota Solo yang dipertahankan dengan pasukan kaveleri, persenjataan berat-artileri, pasukan infantri dan komando yang tangguh. Dalam pertempuran selama empat hari tersebut, 109 rumah penduduk porak poranda, 205 penduduk terbunuh karena aksi teror Belanda, 7 serdadu Belanda tertembak dan 3 orang tertawan sedangkan dipihak TNI 6 orang gugur.

Setelah terjadi gencatan senjata dan penyerahan kota Solo kepangkuan Republik Indonesia, Overste Van Ohl yang mewakili pihak Belanda demikian terharu begitu mengetahui bahwa Letkol. Slamet Rijadi—sebagai wakil pihak RI— yang selama ini dicari-carinya ternyata masih sangat muda. Ia dilaporkan berkata, ” Oooh … Overste tidak patut menjadi musuh-ku … Overste lebih pantas menjadi anakku, tetapi kepandaiannya seperti ayahku”.

hari raya Natal dirayakan seperti biasa pada tengah malam, belum pernah saya menyaksikan perayaaan sekhidmat seperti pada malam ini.Gereja penuh sesak, memang tidak besar,sesuana mengharukan sungguh,penerangan dari lilin-lilin yang masih tersedia dan lampu minyak tanah sejauh persediaaan mengizinkan. Nyanyian Natal, yang mereka sudah hafal,melambung dengan kebulatan doa, mohon selamat dari bahaya, yang tentu datang,tetapi tidak menentu.

informasi dari Justinus Kardinal atmoyuwono:

hari berikutnya tanggal 26 desember,pabrik gula dibumi hanguskan dengan menyulut api pada tumpukan jerami yang sudah ditempatkan di gedung pabrik. mengerikan sungguh. Pada umumnya gedung gedung yang beratapkan genteng tidak dapat terbakar habis, hanya yang mereka namakan “besaran , tempat kediaman pimpinan pabrik,terbakar habis, karena atap dibuat dari sirap.

December ,27th.1948

Info from Justinus:

hari berikutnya muali pagi-pagi buta (early morning) selagi api disana-sini masih menyala, atau sekurang-kurangnya masih membara,berdatabngan ribuan orang, terus menerus,laki-laki,perempuan,muda mudi,anak kecil dari segala jurusan menuju ke pabrik yang sudah dibumi hanguskan. Yang menjadi sasaran mereka gudang gula. Mereka mendobrak pintu gudang dan mengambil gula yang disimpan disitu. Ada yang membawa satyu karung gula dipikul berdua.kenayakan dengan alat-alat lain, sebab terlalu berat untuk membawa satu karung sekaligus. yang datang berlarian, yang pergi dengan langkah tergesa-gesa. Demikian berhari-hari hingga isi gudang habis. Pemerintah setempat tidak berdaya untuk menyisihkan sebagian persediaan. (Kejadian yang sma menurut cerita Ibu Dr Iwan, dengan gudang bekas eks Jepang, dibumi angkat oleg Rakyat di belakang tanah Kongsi, mual-muala dibiarkan Gurka,kejadian tahun 1945-1946, kemudian dilarang oleh tentra gurka sekutu, suatu hari terdengar4 temabkan seorang rakyat yang meloncat di pagar rumah kalikecil tertembak dan jatuh meninggal dihalaman rumah,lihat gambar rumah tersebut tahun 1948 dibawah ini)

Dalam keadaan semacam itu,tentu terjadi suatu kecelakaan,bahkan ada yang sampai meninggal karena tertimpa satu karung gula yangb terjatuh.terus tertimbun tanpa ada pertolongan. Semua mencari keperluan pribadi.Sesudah gula habis,mulai mereka mengosongkan ruang di gedung pabrik: meja,kursi,timbangan dan tidak ektinggalan pintu,jendela,papan dari sisa bangunan,seng. siang malam terdengar suara pembongkaran atap atau seng,kerangka atap, semua dibongkar,diangkut dan akhirnya marmer klantai dibongkar sehingga beberapa hari sesudah penulutabn api, pabrik gula tersebut sudah memperlihatkan wajah reruntuhan yang menyedihkan. Orang mengalihakan istilah Bumi hangus kepada bumi angkat.

Sesudah mulai saat kota Yogya diduduki dan mengalir pengungsi,suster pimpina Rumah sakit dan Panti asuhan mengalami kesulitan yang sukar dipecahkan ialah soal bahan makanan. Uang ORI tidak diterima lagi oleh umum sebagai alat tukar, akan dignati gulden kata mereka.Memang pasien tidak banyak,tetapi makin hari makin tambah pasien korban serangan,baik dari lapisan rakyat biasa maupun dari tentara.

Dr Anas from Pajakoemboeh West Sumatra Pro Dutch Nica

MUNGKIN tidak banyak sejarawan Sumatra Barat yang mengetahui biografi dr. Anas, terutama yang terkait dengan peran politiknya selama masa Pemerintah Darurat Republik Indonesia (PDRI) di Sumatra Barat. Di masa PDRI, dr. Anas, yang tinggal di Payakumbuh (rumahnya dekat Gereja), dianggap sebagai ‘orang NICA’.

Audrey Kahin (2005 [versi terjemahan]:186) menyebut-nyebut nama dr. Anas sebagai salah seorang yang diculik oleh kelompok-kelompok nasionalis di Sumatra Barat yang anti Perjanjian Renville dan yang ingin mengkudeta pemerintahan Residen Rasyid.

 ‘Peristiwa 3 Maret [1947]’ itu –

 demikian sering disebut – digerakkan oleh beberapa tokoh dari partai Islam dan Adat yang antara lain dipimpin oleh Saalah St. Mangkuto. Orang seperti dr. Anas yang disebut sebagai ‘pegawai tiga zaman’ menjadi sasaran kebencian rakyat pasca Perjanjian Renville. Banyak di antara mereka yang dikait-kaitkan pula dengan ‘Singkarak Charter’, yaitu rencana pendirian Negara Boneka Minangkabau oleh Belanda.

Ada pula yang mengait-ngaitkan dr. Anas dengan Peristiwa Situjuah yang menewaskan 69 orang republiken. (lihat al.: Sjamsir Djohary,

Peristiwa Situdjuh (15 Djanuari 1949)’

[Skripsi IKIP Padang, 1971]). Ia dikait-kaitkan dengan Letnan Kamaluddin alias Tambiluak yang dituduh sebagai pengkhianat bangsa, yang membocorkan pertemuan pemimpin-pemimpin PDRI Wilayah Sumatera Tengah kepada pihak Belanda. Saksi-saksi mata mengatakan bahwa Tambiluak alias Kamaluddin, salah seorang mantan pemain sepakbola andalan dari ‘Elftal’ Club Horizon, adalah seorang tukang cukur pada ‘Sutan Karajaan Barbier’ di Payakumbuh yang salah seorang pelanggan setianya adalah dr. Anas. Namun, menurut Audrey Kahin, opcit.:219) tak ada bukti kuat yang menunjukkan bahwa Tambiluak terlibat dalam pembocoran rapat rahasia para petinggi PDRI di Situjuah kepada Belanda.

Belum dapat diketahui secara pasti kapan dr. Anas lahir, tapi sangat mungkin tahun 1908 atau sesudahnya. Data yang kami ketahui mengenai biografinya juga masih fragmentaris. Fajar Rillah Vesky yang mewawancarai keluarga dr. Anas di Payakumbuh mengatakan bahwa dr. Anas dan istrinya berasal dari Kotogadang. Ibunya bernama Jamilah dan ayahnya berdarah Jawa, namanya Atmo Wisastro yang konon masih termasuk trah Sultan Hamengku Buwono 1. Di rumahnya di Payakumbuh pernah menginap Bung Hatta, Rosihan Anwar, dan Abdul Muis. Pengarang roman SalahAsuhan itu adalah ipar kontan dr. Anas karena mengawini kakaknya, Nuriah, yang mati muda. Salah seorang sahabat dr. Anas adalah Prof. Dr. Amir Hakim Usman, linguis Unand dan UNP yang meninggal tahun 2006.

Audrey Kahin dalam ‘Strugle for Indpendence: West Sumatra in the Indonesiaan national revolution 1945- 1950 (PhD thesis Cornell University, 1970:296) mencatat bahwa dr. Anas pernah mendapatkan training masalah kesehatan di Belanda. Yang jelas, dr. Anas dan istrinya, Djoeasa Anas, telah hijrah ke Belanda menyusul gagalnya aksi polisionil Belanda yang hendak merebut kembali Indonesia tahun 1947. Tampaknya dia punya seorang anak angkat yang bernama Nadia Anas. Tahun 1966 Nadia menikah di Den Haag dengan R. Budi Hartono yang keturunan Indonesia. Tampaknya dr. Anas dan istrinya sudah meningal di Belanda. Tapi saya belum menemukan tarikh meninggal mereka.

Foto-foto keluarga dr. Anas, termasuk foto ini, telah diserahkan ke KITLV Leiden. Foto ini (10 x 14 cm.) diambil waktu resepsi pernikahan Nadia Anas dengan R. Budi Hartono di Den Haag pada bulan Maret 1966. (Akad nikah diadakan pada hari Senin, 4 April jam 9:00 pagi di Balaikota Den Haag, Burg. De Monchyplein). Sebelum sampai di KITLV Leiden, foto ini dikoleksi oleh Antiquariat Minerva, Den Haag. Perempuan yang berkebaya dan berselendang yang duduk itu adalah Ibu Djoesa Anas, dan pria berkacamata dan memakai jas yang duduk di sebelahnya adalah dr. Anas, suaminya.

Fajar mengatakan bahwa konon dr. Anas meninggalkan testamen di Belanda, yang diminta jemput kepada kemenakannya, Dr. Johar. Sayang sekali Dr. Johar telah meninggal pula sebelum sempat menjemput testamen itu ke Belanda. Jika testamen itu memang ada dan dapat ditemukan, mungkin akan dapat diketahui kenapa dr. Anas memilih pro Belanda. Kisah hidup orang-orang Minang yang pro Belanda seperti dr. Anas masih belum banyak terungkap dalam sejarah Minangkabau

Pada waktu siang sering mendadak terdengar  datanganya tentara Belanda, semua panik,lari mengungsi,meskipun kebanyakan tidak benar dan pada waktu malam terdengar serangan dari Pihak TNI. Pada suatu pagi saya mendapat laporan dari dapur Rumah sakit bahwa persediaan kayu bakar sudah hampir habis. Kira-kira jam 09.00 saya dengan seorang pemuda naik sepeda masuk desa dibelakang Rumah sakit untuk mencari kayu bakar. Ternyata desa itu sepi, orang-orang sudah mengungsi. Untunglah ayah keluarga yang dituju ada dirumah dan mempunyai persediaan kayu bakar cukup banyak dan rela membantu. belum selesai pembuicaraan bagaimana cara pengangkutannya terdengar letusan dari jauh,diikuti dengan  desisan dan 2 letusan di tempat.

Baru sja keluar dari rumah sakit, mereka lari kembali ke kamar saya dengan suster kepala menemui mereka, komandannya berpangkat Kapten dengan kira-kira 50 orang anak buahnya, terjadi pembicaraan antara lain:”pastor ,disini ada beberapa orang anggota TNI ?.”Tidak ada”.”Pastor tahu bahwa di sekitar ada tentara TNI, beraapoa jumlah mereka”.”Tidak tahu, kalau jumlah norang katolik saya tahu”.”tentu” “Di kompleks ini ada tentara yang bersembunyi dan ada senjatanya?.”Tidak ada””Boleh digeledah ?”Boleh,tetapi bersama dengan saya  dan suster Kepala dan ank buah tinggal diluar”.

After 40 days dipengungsian (since december 1948), Yani dating, he dsatang with the native Indonesian sarong, wearing capin (skullcap), commonly used to pack Yani, but with clothes that he had entered the town of Magelang who had occupied the Netherlands. desperate to enter the cities to look for his wife, children will be taken out of town, but apparently they had fled in advance Mr. Yaniv dahulu.Jadi keep searching until finally meet, of course, look for it without neglecting his duty assignment. So it is that perjalana to the mountains, day and night went on, dropping and climbing, with the hope of ever meeting with the general kota.Dapur not exist, so eat drink, shelter and other daily necessities provided by the people, their hearts bauik once, save ,they  also been struggling to keep the Independence of their nation  Homeland and the people and the army at that time fought shoulder to shoulder, there is a courier, there are so security desa.ada who became rescuers and even some that into the mountains a few months tentara.Sesudah Yani got a promotion to lieutenant colonel, commander of the Brigade menjasdi 9. Yani if ​​you come home to see wife and kids once a week.Brigade “di pengungsian” brigade was given the name White Horse (see photo Mr yani symbol in front of a white horse brigade )


One day I forgot the date, when Mr. Edhi is still predominantly Sarwo Yani. When I was in mantenan “dilereng” mountain cleft, apparently there are spies who know the Dutch, then told Belanda.Akan but at night, the battalion entered the village of Pak Surono East Java, location within the journey toward barat.Senag once at that time, when met with troops of friends, the liver becomes more mongko (strong), fighting spirit so much tebal.Kira about 04.00 am (PM) Sarwo Edhi (President-in-law this SBYsaat) dating.memberitahu that dutch up the mountain to to Mantenan, I soon (Mrs. Ahmad yani) take the kids out of the house to hide from the pursuit of the Netherlands, from dawn until 11:00 (AM) morning in the ravine, which turned out to Nyona Ahmad sought dutch yani.Kepada residents asking where the Dutch army wife Ahmad yani whom he met on the population, fled the house where I entered and found no clue what investigated but nothing.Para population was quiet, did not want to show my place to hide in the ravine, they were righteous faithful, protect its children anak.Begitulah character the mountain village full of originality, a simple, honest and setia.Meskipun fear and the fear-dutch Dutch takui but they remained silent would not divulge the place where the wife of Ahmad yani located. Fortunately, child-anakkupun nothing menanggis silent, depending on feeding my baby in my arms. 04.00 armpit banging on the door, the cry: “There is a dutch, running, lari.Bale-bale where I slept with three children quickly cleaned, rolled into one, throwing up the roof, kept running down kejurang, without regard to the presence of venomous animals, kakipun tealh leech into food = many times, not felt, run, run kredalam abyss sebenarnya.Kepala pack yani Staff, Major Ismullah) fell, as did doctors Soejono, there is no doctor who metawat us, simply by nurses saja.Memang in grilya war we play a lot of cats with the Dutch, the Netherlands dating we go, we go dutch again. The next day I moved again, moving from place to another is always done at night, now go up the mountain again, higher, continue to rise almost to the top once it’s dinggin. But the bullets whistling and the sound of gunfire over the head, it really made shock.hearing the bullets whistling sound and the shot without seeing the person, make the “girapen” “jujo” (Javanese term). There is quite some time, when I heard the shot menjadis eperti people of “Gilo” (unconscious), perhaps it’s called panic.Pada time we often get the drugs from below, from kota.Obat Wardoyo was sent by doctors, can also cigarettes and other lainnya.Abangku, Mas Slamet, seems indeed like a village, so he did not suspect that the Dutch out kota.Daerah where I fled the area behind the day is called MMC (Merapi Merbabu Complex).

Setelah 40 hari dipengungsian (sejak desember 1948), Pak Yani dating, Ia dsatang dengan dengan berpakainan kain sarung,memakai capin(kopiah)  ,cara yang biasa dipakai pak Yani, akan tetapi  dengan pakaian itu ia berhasil masuk kota Magelang yang sudah diduduki Belanda.Nekat masuk kota  untuk mencari anak isterinya  akan dibawa keluar kota,tetapi ternyata mereka  sudah mengungsi terlebih dahulu.Jadi Pak Yani terus mencari hingga akhirnya ketemu,sudah barang tentu mencarinya itu tanpa mengabaikan tugas kewajibannya. Maka demikianlah perjalana ke gunung,siang malam berjalan terus ,menurun dan mendaki,dengan harapan sekali-kali bertemu dengan orang kota.Dapur umum juga tidak ada,jadi makan minum,tempat tinggal dan lain keperluan sehari-hari disediakan  oleh rakyat,mereka bauik hati sekali,ramah tamah sekali.Mereka itu juga sudah berjuang untuk tetap merdekanya tanah air dan bangsanya.Memang rakyat dan tentara pada waktu itu berjuang bahu membahu,ada yang menjadi kurir ,ada yang jadi keamanan desa.ada yang jadi penolong dan bahkan ada  juga yang menjadi tentara.Sesudah beberapa bulan digunung itu Pak Yani mendapat promosi menjadi letnan Kolonel,menjasdi komandan  Brigade 9 .Pak Yani kalau pulang melihat anak dan istri dipengungsian sekali seminggu.Brigade itu diberi nama brigade Kuda putih(lihatlah foto pak yani didepan lambing brigade Kuda putih)

Pada suatu hari yang tanggalnya aku lupa,saat Pak sarwo Edhi yang masih turut Pak Yani. Saat aku berada di mantenan dilereng gunung Sumbing,rupa-rupanya  ada mata-mata Belanda yang mengetahui,lalu memberitahu kepada Belanda.Akan tetapi  pada malam hari itu ,battalion Pak Surono masuk desa dari Jawa Timur,didlam perjalanan menuju  arah barat.Senag sekali pada waktu itu ,apabila bertemu dengan pasukan teman, hati ini menjadi lebih mongko(kuat),semangat berjuang jadi lebih tebal.Kira-kira jam 04.00 pagi(PM)  Sarwo Edhi (mertua Presiden RI  SBYsaat ini)dating.memberitahu  bahwa belanda naik gunung  menuju ke Mantenan,segera saya(Ibu Ahmad yani)  membawa  anak-anak keluar rumah untuk bersembunyi dari kejaran belanda,dari subuh sampai jam 11.00(PM)  pagi  berada di jurang,yang dicari belanda ternya Nyona Ahmad yani.Kepada penduduk tentara Belanda bertanya mana isteri Ahmad yani pada penduduk yang dijumpainya, rumah tempatku mengungsi  dimasuki dan diperiksa.tetapi tidak menemukan petunjuk apa-apa.Para penduduk pun diam saja,tidak mau menunjukkan tempatku bersembunyi di jurang itu,mereka itu berbudi setia,melindungiku beserta anak-anak.Begitulah  watak orang desa dipegunungan yang penuh keaslian,sederhana,jujur dan setia.Meskipun takut kepada belanda dan di takut-takui Belanda tetapi mereka itu tetap diam tidak mau membocorkan tempat dimana isteri Ahmad yani berada. Untunglah anak-anakkupun diam tak ada yang menanggis,bayiku tergantung menyusu di pelukanku. Jam 04.00 ketiak pintu digedor,terdengar teriakan:”Ada belanda,lari,lari.Bale-bale dimana aku tidur dengan tiga  anak cepat-cepat dibersihkan,digulung jadi satu,lempar keatas atap,terus lari turun kejurang,tanpa mengindahkan adanya binatang berbisa,kakipun tealh menjadi santapan lintah berkali=kali,tidak terasa,lari,lari kredalam jurang yang sebenarnya.Kepala Staf pak yani,mayor Ismullah) gugur,demikian juga dokter Soejono,maka tidak ada dokter yang metawat kita,cukup dengan perawat  saja.Memang dalam perang grilya kita sering main kucing-kucing dengan belanda,Belanda dating kita pergi,belanda pergi kita kembali .Keesokan harinya aku pindah lagi,kepindahan dari tempat ke tempat lain yang selalu dilakukan pada malam hari,sekarang naik gunung lagi,lebih tinggi,terus naik hamper ke puncak rasanya dinggin sekali. Akan tetapi desingan peluru dan suara tembakan diatas kepala itu,sungguh membuatkan shock.Mendengar suara desingan peluru dan tembakan tanpa melihat orangnya,menjadikan “girapen””jujo”(istilah jawa).Ada beberapa waktu lamanya,apabila mendengar bunyi tembakan aku menjadis eperti orang yang “gilo”(dibawah sadar),barangkali itu yang dinamakan panic.Pada waktu itu sering kita mendapat obat-obatan dari bawah,dari kota.Obat tersebut dikirim oleh dokter Wardoyo,juga dapat rokok dan lain-lainnya.Abangku,Mas Slamet,rupanya memang seperti orang desa ,jadi ia tidak dicurigai Belanda kalau keluar masuk kota.Daerah dimana aku mengungsi adalah daerah yang dibelakang hari di sebut MMC(Merapi Merbabu Complex).

Just a picture of the guerrilla movement and activities of anti grilya dri months January to May 1949 in Wehrkrei II are as follows:
City districts and city districts continually confounded by the TNI and Grilyawan motorcade Netherlands has always been a target of ambushes. Many of the vehicles destroyed by landmines Netherlands on the highway between Semarang Yogja.Jalan this every day be passed by a large convoy protected by armored forces and infantry entered the Dutch army patrol belanda.Sebaliknya, but only up to 5 miles patrolled one day, for example around and Karanganyar. (notes Dr. Iwan, very difficult to acquiring a collection of postal history of this area, I just registered memeproleh receipt of Salam course, if anyone have it please berkean show it to me, Terim akasih)
Detasmen dengn akekuatan a Dutch patrol platoons to a company with headquarters in Zmagelang, which was guarded by a battalion uinfantri lengkap.Kadang dutch with the statement-sometimes they do a mass purge baser especially if they know the location of a complex grilya military, patrol commander of the Dutch led by Let.Kolonel van Zeuten, the serine TURT with his army into the mountains.
City magelang already scorching the earth by the military on both aggression served until December 1948 Dutch troops entered the city of Magelang, was once garnizunyang Magelan of large, full of military banguna, but now 80% have been destroyed, except nenerapa military buildings, office drinking water companies (waterleideng) and PTT as well as electricity, most residents had joined the army to evacuate the slopes of the mountain cleft and trim, as well merapi_merbabu.Ynag only residents living within the city and residents of Indonesia tionghoa including pegaswai country that are less convinced of the need for them to join the organization grilya. They would then continue to be supervised by KDM and it turns out that most remained sympathetic to RI, while immediately establishing Poh Chinese Tui An armed by Belanda.Tentara KNIL very enterprising and often patrolled the purge malakukan, tindakanmereka against the people very hard, they play the shot and fuel only if they encounter little resistance in the village-dutch kampung.Patroli and cleaning action for the people still berate tindkana arbitrary.

Sekedar gambaran kegiatan gerakan gerilya dan anti grilya dri bulan January sampai Mei 1949 di Wehrkrei II adalah sebagai berikut :

Kota kabupaten dan kota distrik terus-menerus  dikacaukan oleh Grilyawan TNI dan iring-iringan kendaraan Belanda selalu menjadi sasaran penghadangan .Banyak kendaraan Belanda hancur karena ranjau darat di jalan raya antara Semarang Yogja.Jalan ini tiap hari diliwati oleh konvoi  besar dilindungi oleh pasukan berlapis baja dan infantry belanda.Sebaliknya tentara Belanda mengadakan patrol,tetapi hanya sampai 5 km  yang dipatroli satu hari, misalnya sekeliling Parakan,Temanggung,SEcang,Magelang,Grabak,Plikon(Bandengan),Salaman,Muntilan,Purworejo,Kemiri,Pituruh,Purwodaadi,Gembong,Kebumen,Prembom,kolowinagun dan Karanganyar.(catatan Dr iwan,sangat sulit memeroleh koleksi postal histori dari daerah ini, saya hanya memeproleh resi kiriman tercatat dari Salam saja,bila ada yang memilikinya harap berkean memperlihatkannya kepada saya,terima kasih)

Detasmen patrol Belanda dengn akekuatan 1 peleton sampai 1 kompi dengan pusatnya di Zmagelang,yang dijaga oleh satu battalion uinfantri belanda dengan pernjataan lengkap.Kadang-kadang mereka mengadakan suatu gerakan pembersihan baser-besaran terutama jika mereka mengetahui letak suatu kompleks grilya TNI,komandan patrol Belanda dipimpin oleh Let.Kolonel van Zeuten, yang serin turt dengan pasukannya ke gunung-gunung.

Kota magelang sudah dibumi hanguskan oleh TNI pada agressi kedua desember 1948 sampai tentara Belanda masuk kota Magelang,Magelan dari dulunya adalah garnizunyang besar,penuh dengan banguna militer,tetapi kini 80% sudah hancur,kecuali nenerapa bangunan militer,kantor perusahan air minum(waterleideng) dan PTT serta listrik,sebagian besar penduduk telah mengungsi ikut tentara ke lereng-lereng gunung Sumbing dan merapi,serta merapi_merbabu.Ynag tinggal didalam kota hanya penduduk tionghoa dan penduduk Indonesia termasuk pegaswai negeri  yang kurang yakin akan perlunya mereka bergabung dengan organisasi grilya. Mereka itu selanjutnya terus diawasi oleh KDM dan ternyata bahwa kebanyakan tetap bersimpati kepada RI,sedangkan orang Tionghoa segera mendirikan Poh An Tui yang dipersenjatai oleh Belanda.Tentara KNIL sangat giat berpatroli dan sering malakukan aksi pembersihan,tindakanmereka terhadap rakyat amat keras,mereka main tembak dan bakar saja jika mereka menjumpai sedikit saja perlawanan di kampong-kampung.Patroli dan aksi pembersihan belanda bagi rakyat tetap berate tindkana sewenang-wenang.(lihatlah foto pak yani saat begrilya dengan brigades kuda putihnya)

(2) Sadar _Ontwaken magazine,Mei 1949-The chinese overseas magazined lead by Thio In Lok ,every one month. intersting info about Pao An Tui.

In the unconscious has been described by colleagues Soegardo about PAT (Pao’s tui) which summarily describes that PAT is only logical that there is, for defending the rights of the Chinese nation has. Among the many questions surrounding the establishment of PAT, it is our attention, that all fees that amount is not small shouldered by the Chinese community itself, so that by the time the organization has never sounded kesahnya complaints about financially, could be the water as the Chinese community and the PAT as a fish . But the situation at that time was really sad karewna kwmungkinan PAT dissolution exists, financial kiarena not suffice. If PAT is dissolved, menunjukn that Chinese society is still too weak in the union to mengalang an organization to defend human rights. No one has objected the PAT in Indonesia, which defended the rights of Chinese people as no other person able to membelanya.Tidak there was a broad outlook will Indonesiapun with this prizip meolak. (Parent Iwan spoke about how the leadership of Dr. Poh An Tui city Padang, Chinese dilingkungankampung maintain and defend the legendary Chinese moans of other tribes, such as Tanah Kongsi burning efforts by spraying petrol dikalikecil, Dr. Iwan still remember the night told to mengungsi home Ntjek Ko Lai because he wanted dibakar. Small-time record of dr iwan

Didalam sadar pernah diuaraikan oleh rekan Soegardo tentang PAT(Pao an tui) yang ringkasnya melukiskan bahwa sudah sewajarnya PAT itu ada, untuk membela hak-has azasi dari bangsa Tionghoa.

Diantara banyak soal sekitar pendirian PAT ,adalah sangat menarik perhatian kita,bahwa segala biaya yang jumlahnya tidak sedikit dipikul oleh masyarakat Tionghoa sendiri,sehingga pada waktu organisasi itu tidak pernah kedengaran keluh-kesahnya soal finasial ,bisa merupakan air sebagai masyarakat Tionghoa dan PAT sebagai ikannya.

Tetapi keadaan pada waktu itu sungguh menyedihkan karewna kwmungkinan dibubarkannya PAT itu ada, kiarena keuangan tidak mencukupkan. Jika PAT dibubarkan ,menunjukn bahwa masyarakat Tionghoa masih terlampau lemah dalam persatuannya untuk mengalang suatu organisasi guna membela hak azasi.

 Tak ada seorangpun yang keberatan adanya PAT di Indonesia ini,yang membela hak azasi bangsa Tionghoa karena tidak ada lain orang yang mampu membelanya.

Tidak ada seorang Indonesiapun dengan pandangan luas akan meolak prinzip ini.

(Orang Tua Dr Iwan bercerita bagaimana pimpinan Poh An Tui kota Padang,dilingkungankampung Tionghoa menjaga dan membela kaum Tionghoa daris erangan suku lain,seperti upaya membakar Tanah Kongsi dengan menyiramkan bensi dikalikecil, Dr iwan Masih ingat malam-maolam disuruh mengungsi ke rumah Ntjek Ko Lai karena katanya Kali Kecil mau dibakar.-catatan dr iwan)

(1)Postally used circulair letter from the chineseoversees  Medical Doctor,Dental health and aphothekeer organiztions ,alaydrus street ,Central jacarta to the member with federal usa printing stamps 1 and 2 cent.

(2)Menurut keterangan Sultan Djokja ,pada hari ini lebih kurang seratus orang pembesar Republik dan orang partikelir beserta keluarga,oleh Belanda telah diangkut dari Magelang ke Djokja. Sebagai alasan orang-orang itu dianggap berbahaya untuk keamanan dan ketertiban  umum serta mereka mendapat pangilan pemerintah Repoeblik,sedangkan hal tersebut ternyata tidak benar.Hal ini telah dilaporkan kepada ketua delegasi Republik,supaya dengan perantaraan PBB diajukan protes.

Keterangan Sultan yang kedua ,mengenai soal pelemparan granat tangan dihalaman tempat kediaman Iboe Soekarno.Sultan menerangkan ,bahwa difihak orang Belanda ingin memperlihatkan kepada dunia ketridak sanggupan pemerintah republik untuk mempertahankan keamana dan ketertiban,jika telah dikembalikan ke Djokja dan bahwa kejadian itu dibesar-besarkan. Kabar yang mengatakan bersumber dari pihak Republik,bahwa granat tangan itu dilempar oleh pihak FDR dan bukanlah oleh PKI,menurut Sultan pihak resmi Republik sama sekali tidak tahu dan sampai sekarang rtidak ada bukti bahwa orang Indonesia yang telah melemparkanya. Akhirnyaditerangkan oleh Sultan bahwa sampai pada waktu Pemerintak Republik dikembalikan,maka tentara Belanda bertanggung Jawab atas keamanan penduduk di Djokja.

Sultan Jogja menerangkan dalam konperensi pers di Djokja sekembalinya dari kunjungan ke Jakarta dan Bangka ,bahwa kunjungan tersebut memberikan kepuasan. Mungkin dalam minggu ini akan diumumkan, kapan berlangsungnya penyerahan kekuasaan di Djokja oleh Belanda kepada republik.Kembalinya Presiden Soekarno dan Drs Moh Hatta beserta pemimpin rfepubli lainnya, sangat bisa terjadi dua atau tiga hari steelah terjadi penyerahan kedaulatan tersebut,hal ini juga tergantung kepada  keresidenan Djokja.

KETERANG Dr SOEKIMAN, Ketua Masjumi dr Soekimanpun telah memberi satu uraian yang panjang lebar tentang kunjungan Hatta ke Aceh. dikatakannya rombongan Hatta sangat menyesal karena sudah tidak dapat bertemu muka dengan Mr Sjafroeddin,akan tetapi ini tidaklah mengakibatkan hal yang tidak enak. Dr Soekiman menegaskan bahwa seluruh Aceh ada menyokong kesepakatan  van Royen-Roem.Sebelumnya Hatta datang di Aceh,pihak PNI sangat menentang persetujuan itu, akan tetapi pendirian ini telah berubah setelah Mr Ali Sastroamidjojo memberikan keterangan selengkapnya.  Dr Soekiman menceritakan juga, bahwa pada waktu sebelumnya rombongan pemimpin republik datang, lapangan terbang Longah di Aceh telah ditembaki dengan sanpan mesin dan dibom dari udara oleh pasukan Belanda.Tapi pihak militer belanda yang berkuasa menyangkal dengan keras keterangan tersbut diatas.

Pembantu Mimbar Oemoem di Djokja memberikan informasi dari Dr Halim,seorang anggota Badan Pekerja KNI(Komite nasional Indoensia), ia menerangkan bahwa setelah Pemerintah Republik nanti kembali ke Djokja, pada pokoknya ia setuju sekali dengan adanya kabinet parlementer , karena lebih demokratis dari kabinet Presidentiel. Tetapi menilik suasana pada waktu ini, justru dalam waktu peralihan ,figur-figur seperti Bung Karno dan Bung Hatta yang tidak terikat dalam salah satu patai atau golongan , masih diperlukan untuk dapat mengatasi segala pertentangan partai dan golongan sekalipun mereka itu  sebagai manusia juga tidak luput dari kesalahan dan kekurangan. Dr Halim setuju sekali bila diadakan resuffle kabinet buat menganti beberapa orang yang dipandang kurang kuat.

INTERVIEW WITH THE RESULTS dr.j.h. van Royen by BMDiah leader Merdeka newspaper published in the Daily Panarangan:

a. Apabilakah conceivably pemrintah Republican masters to come back? The answer: The Return of the Republic to Djokja is preceded by two terms: the evacuation of civilians and the achievement of a formula to hold a “Cease fuire order” which is being discussed by the two sub-commission for it, and I hope by the end of this week reached a command to stop fighting . Then with the Dutch troops will be withdrawn segrara mundur.Ini at least take a week and I beraharap at the end of this week reached a command to stop fighting.

b. The Conference will be held Bilakan bunda.Jawabannya table: Selaks as possible, I hope that after the Republic back and aprlemennya approve the agreement was made, it will be taken as a date destination July 15 to hold a Round table conference.

c.Bagaimanakah may hold an agency representative to welcome kedaulatn.Jika right for freedom and limited state of mind this people? only in Dutch-controlled area for those who want to follow the lead of the Netherlands while the class of the republic can not speak? he replied: I think the will of the people and independence of thought has already been firmly expressed desire for independence that would not indicate that there is a real will of the people? not the greatness of the popularity of President soekarno it as fact will of the people? However, regarding the matter of election of some form of state or constitutional legendary esuatu Indomnesia area had to be done together under international supervision. If the Dutch troops had withdrawn from the areas occupied by itself for both parties, for the followers of the Republic there is no reason to say that they are oppressed to express their opinions and for those who think differently should be gaining independence cukup.Pemilihan so this should be done under international supervision. In this case the limits of something where the sound was to be done pemunggutan also in harmony with a healthy mind. Self-determination sendir it properly recognized, but also in this great little area must ditemntukan first, for example by a constituent assembly.

d) if the master trust in the current Republican leaders opposed to host negotiations? answer: I sunguh put their trust in them. in connection with this question, the chairman of the Dutch delegation was advancing petanyaan replies: “Are People Indonesia will put their trust in them, also Kapau transfer of sovereignty has been done, we Jawan: Stay at least to their confidence in the Indonesian People depend on their results in the fight for independence by way talks with the host delegation led (headed), also with the wisdom of his leadership in running the master Lovink ini.Apabila approvals done in the land can be implemented with the help of masters and kepercayaabn Indonesia into larger nation against the Dutch government’s intention, then their position will be stronger and higher also harhat and their degrees in the eyes of the people, the more the days after the transfer of sovereignty.

FACTS ABOUT MR Roem RETURNS TO THE GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF DJOKJA.Dalam a question and answer between the editor in chief harin Indonesia Merdeka with delegation chairman Mr.Moh.Roem, he stated that the Government return to Djokja Rrepublik within the next week is not yet possible, but can be expected to occur in this June as well. As is known by the sound of a communique slah United Nations Commission for Indonesia, the return of republican government may hope will happen daslam mid-June and the day that the Sultan of Yogyakarta ditentukan.Saat not been able to take over the government leadership seluruj Jogja around the 20th of June.

To the question whether the delay in the return of government to Djokja RFepublik caused difficulties djumpai about cease fire, Mr. Roem replied, delayed because of problems of refugees and the withdrawal of Dutch troops.

HASIL WAWANCARA DENGAN dr.j.h. van Royen oleh  B.M.Diah pemimpin surat kabar Merdeka yang dimuat dalam harian Panarangan:

a. Apabilakah menurut pikiran tuan pemrintah Republik Dapat kembali? Jawabannya: Kembalinya Republik ke Djokja adalah didahului oleh dua syarat: evakuasi orang sipil dan kedua tercapainya suatu formula untuk mengadakan “Cease fuire order” yang sedang dibicarakan oleh kedua sub-komisi untuk itu,dan saya berharap pada akhir minggu ini tercapai bentuk perintah menghentikan pertempuran. Kemudian dengan segrara pasukan belanda akan ditarik mundur.Ini sekurang-kurangnya memakan waktu satu minggu dan saya beraharap pada akhir minggu ini tercapai bentuk perintah menghentikan pertempuran.

b. Bilakan akan diadakan Konperensi meja bunda.Jawabannya : Selaks-lekasnya,saya harap sesudah Republik kembali dan aprlemennya menyetujui persetujuan yang dibuat, maka akan diambil sebagai tanggal tujuan 15 Juli untuk mengadakan konperensi meja Bundar.

c.Bagaimanakah mungkin mengadakan suatu badan yang representatif untuk menyambut kedaulatan.Jika hak kemerdekaan dan menyatakan pikiran rakyat itu terbatas?hanya pada daerah yang dikuasai Belanda bagi mereka yang mau mengikuti pimpinan Belanda sedangkan golongan republik tidak dapat bersuara?jawabnya : Menurut hemat saya kehendak rakyat itu dan kemerdekaan menyatakan pikiran itu sudah tegas bukankah  keinginan untuk kemerdekaan itu menunjukkan bahwa ada kehendak rakyat yang nyata? bukankah kebesaran popularitas Presiden soekarno itu sebagai kenyataan kehendak rakyat? Akan tetapi mengenai soal pemilihan sesuatu bentuk negara atau ketatanegaraan daris esuatu daerah Indomnesia memang harus dilakukan bersama dibawah pengawasan Internasional. Apabila tentara belanda sudah ditarik dari daerah yang diduduki dengan sendirinya bagi kedua belah pihak,bagi pengikut Republik tidak ada alasan mengatakan bahwa mereka ditindas untuk menyatakan pendapatnya dan bagi mereka yang berpikiran  lain haruslah mendapat kemerdekaan cukup.Pemilihan demikian ini harus dilakukan dibawah pengawasan Internasional. Dalam hal ini batas-batas sesuatu tempat dimana dilakukan pemunggutan suara itu haruslah pula selaras dengan pikiran yang sehat. Hak menentukan nasib sendir itu benar diakui,tetapi juga dalam hal ini besar kecil daerah itu harus ditemntukan lebih dahulu,umpamanya oleh konstituante.

d) apakah tuan menaruh kepercayaan pada pemimpin Republik yang sekarang lawan tuan berunding?jawabannya: Saya sunguh menaruh kepercayaan kepada mereka. berhubung dengan pertanyaan ini,ketua delegasi belanda itu memajukan petanyaan balasan:”Apakah Rakyat Indonesia akan menaruh kepercayaan kepada mereka,juga kapau penyerahan kedaulatan  sudah dilakukan, jawan kita : Tetap tidaknya kepercayaan Rakyat Indonesia kepada mereka tergantung kepada hasil mereka dalam memperjuangkan kemerdekaan dengan jalan berunding dengan delegasi yang tuan pimpin(ketuai),Juga dengan kebijaksanaan tuan Lovink dalam menjalankan pimpinannya dinegeri ini.Apabila persetujuan yang diperbuat dapat dilaksanakan dengan penuh bantuan tuan-tuan dan kepercayaabn bangsa Indonesia menjadi lebih besar terhadap maksud pemerintah Belanda,maka kedudukan mereka akan lebih kuat  dan lebih tinggi pula harhat dan derajat mereka dimata rakyat,lebih-lebih dimasa sesudah penyerahan kedaulatan.

KETERANGAN MR ROEM TENTANG PENGEMBALIAN PEMERINTAHAN REPUBLIK KE DJOKJA.Dalam suatu tanya jawab antara pemimpin redaksi harin Merdekan denga ketua delegasi Indonesia Mr.Moh.Roem, beliau menyatakan bahwa pengembalian Pemerintah Rrepublik ke Djokja  dalam minggu depan ini belum mungkin , tapi bisa diharap akan terjadi dalam bulan Juni ini juga. Seperti diketahui menurut bunyi slah satu komunike Komisi PBB untuk Indonesia,pengembalian pemerintahan republik dapat diharap akan terjadi dalam pertengahan bulan Juni dan harinya tidak ditentukan.Saat itu Sultan Jogja sudah dapat mengambil alih pimpinan pemerintahan seluruj Jogja sekitar tanggal 20 juni.

Atas pertanyaan apakah tertundanya pengembalian pemerintahan Republik ke Djokja disebabkan kesukaran yang djumpai soal cease fire, Mr Roem menjawab, tertunda karena adanya soal pengungsi dan penarikan tentara Belanda.

Hanyas my family who still live in Yogyakarta, the same mother and my sister is in salatiga, only the father who still  living in mobile jogya.We  always thinking about it why they can not go back as soon as possible bersama.Mungkin dik Lien had received a letter from Supartinah salatiga. Perhaps they were still there long, since waiting for the arrival of the father of Jogya.Kami herein have not been to school only temporarily akat take privatlessen pending in August is coming up and we had to comply with the Federal government, because there was no school here, but not why the sister Republic of study and participate remember in my soul like a son of Indonesia.

On August 1, 1949 signed the joint agreement “Termination Shoot Shoot” from both sides. Implementation is disseminated through radio announcements, the overall wire TNI in the archipelago. Meanwhile, from the dutch H. Y. Lovink act as Deputy Supreme Crown of the Netherlands in Jakarta, delivered throughout the Netherlands Army. Cessation of gunfire followed and supervised by UNCI and after poko agreement is implemented then continue the Round Table Conference in The Hague.

At Edinburgh on August 3, 1949 announced the termination shootout by the power of the Dutch military, with emphasis on instruction / command termination Shoot Shoot it in the form of pamphlets that circulated from the airplane because the position of the TNI in the pockets of guerrillas.

This leaflet was signed by the Military Governor of South Sumatra Dr. A. K. Gani, which reads as follows: “THE ORDER OF SUPREME COMMANDER TTKD TNI. AUTHORITY GIVEN KON.SUM.KOL. Hidayat, THEN SOUTH SUMATRA TO ALL ORDERS AND UNITY TNI AGENCY OF THE ARMED STRUGGLE OF SHOOTS AND SHOOT STOPPING HOSTILITY AND REMAIN place EACH DATED 03 AUGUST 1949 FROM 24.00 HOURS. INDONESIA TIME COMMAND TTK HBS Dr. A.K. Gani “.

The original wire is directly delivered by the Military Governor of South Sumatra to the Government Resident of the Emergency Civil Affairs Sub Commander Territorial Edinburgh and Edinburgh.

As a continuation of the wire termination shootout by the Military Governor of South Sumatra was issued on the instruction-instruction as follows:

1. Notice to the commander-the commander of Force (Battalion, Company, Section) regarding the determination of the TNI hangout for each unit of concentration.

2. To be held talks between Vice TBA Introduction of Van Schendel and Lieutenant Colonel A. G. W. Navis with the Local Joint Committee consisting of Colonel Abunjani, Regent M. Kamil and major Brori Mansyur.

Fire Ceas order not to breach the ceasefire by each of the warring parties and based on the results of the meeting Estuary Tembesi October 27, 1949 between Indonesia and the Netherlands under the coordination UNCI / Three Nations Commission agreed that all troops should leave and empty pockets . To that end, representatives of the Local Joint Committee TNI Major Brori Mansyur and from the Dutch Lieutenant Wolterbeck use the facility held a meeting Dutch BO Motor / meetings with the leaders of the Front Tungkal Area, which was attended, among others, Lieutenant Young A.

While waiting for the next settlement, supply and logistical aid sent periodically to the Tungkal Ulu by the Dutch facility administered by the Joint Committee staff.

Evacuation is obvious disappointment for the troops Tungkal Area, let alone the countryside except the city of Kuala Tungkal, merupaka intact areas of the Republic of Indonesia by people who Republikien, but by realizing greater importance in the struggle. There is no other alternative, but to follow evacuation instructions, with a heavy heart and tears during a farewell to the people who like fish and water unite in the struggle for Sports and grief of this beloved Republic of Indonesia.

Perundingan Genjatan Senjata dan Penyerahan Kedaulatan Republik Indonesia

Pada tanggal 27 Juni 1949 Pokok-pokok Persetujuan “Rum Royen” diumumkan yang isinya antara lain mengenai peghentian tenbak menembak dari kedua belah pihak. Pada tanggal 1 Agustus 1949 ditanda tangani persetujuan bersama “Penghentian Tembak Menembak” dari kedua belah pihak. Pengumuman pelaksanaannya disebarkan melalui radio, kawat keseluruhan jajaran TNI di Nusantara. Sedangkan dari pihak belanda H. Y. Lovink bertindak sebagai Wakil Tertinggi Mahkota Belanda di Jakarta, menyampaikan keseluruh Tentara Belanda. Penghentian tembak menembak ini diikuti dan diawasi oleh UNCI dan setelah poko persetujuan ini dilaksanakan barulah dilanjutkan Konferensi Meja Bundar di Den Haag.

Di Jambi pada tanggal 3 Agustus 1949 diumumkan penghentian tembak menembak oleh KUasa Militer Belanda, dengan memperbanyak intruksi/Perintah Penghentian Tembak Menembak itu dalam bentuk surat selebaran yang disebarkan dari pesawat udara karena kedudukan TNI berada di kantong-kantong gerilya.

Selebaran ini ditandatangani oleh Gubernur Militer Sumatera Selatan Dr. A. K. Gani, yang berbunyi sebagai berikut: “ATAS PERINTAH PANGLIMA TERTINGGI TNI TTKD. KUASA DIBERIKAN KON.SUM.KOL. HIDAYAT, MAKA SUMATERA SELATAN MEMERINTAHKAN KEPADA SEMUA KESATUAN TNI SERTA BADAN PERJUANGAN RAKYAT YANG BERSENJATA MENGHENTIKAN TEMBAK MENEMBAK DAN PERMUSUHAN SERTA TETAP DITEMPAT MASING-MASING MULAI TANGGAL 03 AGUSTUS 1949 JAM 24.00. WAKTU INDONESIA TTK PERINTAH HBS Dr. A.K. GANI”.

Asli kawat ini langsung disampaikan oleh Gubernur Militer Sumatera Selatan kepada Pemerintah Sipil Darurat Residen RI Jambi dan Komandan Sub Teritorial Jambi.

Sebagai kelanjutan dari kawat penghentian tembak menembak oleh Gubernur Militer Sumatera Selatan tersebut dikeluarkan pada intruksi-intruksi sebagai berikut:

1. Pemberitahuan kepada Komanda-komandan Pasukan (Batalyon, Kompi, Seksi) TNI tentang penentuan tempat berkumpul masing-masing kesatuan konsentrasi.

2. Supaya diadakan Perundingan Pendahuluan antara Wakil TBA yang terdiri dari Van Schendel dan Letnan Kolonel A. G. W. Navis dengan Local Joint Commitee yang terdiri dari Kolonel Abunjani, Bupati M. Kamil dan mayor Brori Mansyur.

Ceas Fire agar jangan sampai terjadi pelanggaran gencatan senjata tersebut oleh masing-masing pihak yang berperang dan berdasarkan hasil rapat Muara Tembesi 27 Oktober 1949 antara RI dan Belanda di bawah koordinasi UNCI/Komisi Tiga Negara disetujui bahwa semua pasukan TNI harus meninggalkan dan mengosongkan kantong-kantong. Untuk itu, utusan Local Joint Committee dari TNI Mayor Brori Mansyur dan dari pihak Belanda Letnan Satu Wolterbeck mempergunakan fasilitas Motor BO Belanda mengadakan rapat/pertemuan dengan Pimpinan Front Tungkal Area yang dihadiri antara lain Letnan Muda A. Fattah Leside, Sersan mayor Kadet Madhan. AR, Sersan Mayor Buimin Hasan, Sersan Mayor Arwansyah dengan pengawal Sersan Dua Syamsi, pada minggu pertama November 1949 di Parit Deli (Tungkal Ilir) menyampaikan intruksi dan mengatur tekhnis Pelaksanaan Evakuasi Pasukan TNI ketempat konsentrasi di Merlung bergabung dengan staf Batalyon Gatot Kaca dan rekan-rekan dari Front Sengeti Area. Selama menunggu penyelesaian selanjutnya, bantuan suplay dan logistik dikirim secara periodic ke Tungkal Ulu oleh fasilitas Belanda yang diatur oleh petugas Joint Committee.

Evakuasi tersebut jelas menimbulkan kekecewaan bagi pasukan Tungkal Area, apalagi daerah pedalaman kecuali kota Kuala Tungkal, utuh merupaka daerah Republik Indonesia dengan rakyatnya yang Republikien, tetapi dengan menyadari kepentingan yang lebih besar dalam perjuangan. Tidak ada alternatif lain, selain mematuhi intruksi evakuasi tersebut, dengan berat hati dan tetesan air mata sewaktu terjadi perpisahan dengan rakyat yang manunggal seperti ikan dan air dalam sukan maupun dukanya perjuangan menegakkan Republik Indonesia tercinta ini.

 Marie Thomas, wanita Indonesia pertama yg lulus dari Sekolah Dokter Jawa (thn 1922) #sejarahIndonesia

 

Marie Thomas

 

STOVIA 

Di Hindia Belanda pada tahun 1851

 Sebuah sekolah kedokteran didirikan , dokter pertama sekolah Djawa dan Sekolah Kedokteran kemudian disebut (Sekolah Sampai Training Of Dokter Pribumi).

Untuk waktu yang lama itu hanya terbuka untuk anak laki-laki pribumi. Mungkin Aletta Jacobs, dokter wanita pertama di Belanda, mempengaruhi penerimaan anak perempuan ke Fakultas Kedokteran

Tentu saja selama tur dunianya pada April 18, 1912, ia  bertemu dengan Gubernur Jenderal Hindia Belanda AWF Idenburg. 

Sebagaimana dibuktikan oleh surat perjalanannya yang  menghimbau  penerimaan gadis-gadis untuksekolah   kedokteran:
“Bahkan ketika membahas dokter wanita untuk wanita pribumi dan rumah sakit untuk para wanita, hanya bantuan medis perempuan dan pelatihan Dokter Djawas  wanita, yang mulia   itu lebih dekat kepada kita daripada banyak pejabat dengan isu-isu yang telah kita bahas sebelumnya. 
 

Sampai sekarang  seluruh  gadis pribumi  yang mendaftar untuk Sekolah Dokter Djawa ,  selalu kembali keluar  dengan  dalih, tapi hanya karena kesulitan  para pemegang  kekuasaan di departemen  tetapi juga karena kesulitan bagi  orang-orang muda untuk menerima pendidikan kedokteran yang  terlalu berat dan  merasa tidak cukup  keinginan untuk  memiliki dokter wanita dari  wanita pribumi  “[i].

STOVIA, Sejarah Tonggak Kebangkitan Nasional

 

School tot Opleiding van Indische Artsen (bahasa Indonesia: Sekolah Pendidikan Dokter Hindia), atau yang juga dikenal dengan singkatannya STOVIA, adalah sekolah untuk pendidikan dokter pribumi di Batavia pada zaman kolonial Hindia-Belanda.

Saat ini sekolah ini telah menjadi Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Indonesia.

 
Sejarah Berdirinya STOVIA
Kekhawatiran akan kurangnya tenaga juru kesehatan untuk menghadapi berjangkitnya berbagai macam penyakit berbahaya di wilayah-wilayah jajahannya, membuat pemerintah kolonial menetapkan perlunya diselenggarakan suatu kursus juru kesehatan di Hindia Belanda. Pada 2 Januari 1849, dikeluarkanlah Surat Keputusan Gubernemen no. 22 mengenai hal tersebut, dengan menetapkan tempat pendidikannya di Rumah Sakit Militer (sekarang RSPAD Gatot Subroto) di kawasan Weltevreden, Batavia (sekarang Gambir dan sekitarnya).

Pada tahun 5 Juni 1853,

kegiatan kursus juru kesehatan ditingkatkan kualitasnya melalui Surat Keputusan Gubernemen no. 10 menjadi Sekolah Dokter Djawa, dengan masa pendidikan tiga tahun.

Lulusannya berhak bergelar “Dokter Djawa”, akan tetapi sebagian besar pekerjaannya adalah sebagai mantri cacar.

Selanjutnya Sekolah Dokter Djawa yang terus menerus mengalami perbaikan dan penyempurnaan kurikulum.

Pada tahun 1889

namanya diubah menjadi School tot Opleiding van Inlandsche Geneeskundigen (atau Sekolah Pendidikan Ahli Ilmu Kedokteran Pribumi),

lalu pada tahun 1898

diubah lagi menjadi School tot Opleiding van Inlandsche Artsen (atau Sekolah Dokter Pribumi).

Akhirnya pada tahun 1913,

diubahlah kata Inlandsche (pribumi) menjadi Indische (Hindia) karena sekolah ini kemudian dibuka untuk siapa saja, termasuk penduduk keturunan “Timur Asing” dan Eropa, sedangkan sebelumnya hanya untuk penduduk pribumi. Pendidikan dapat diperoleh oleh siapa saja yang lulus ujian dan masuk dengan biaya sendiri.

Lahirnya Boedi Oetomo
Budi Utomo (ejaan Soewandi: Boedi Oetomo) adalah sebuah organisasi pemuda yang didirikan oleh Dr. Sutomo pada tanggal 20 Mei 1908.

Berdirinya Budi Utomo menjadi awal gerakan yang bertujuan mencapai kemerdekaan Indonesia walaupun pada saat itu organisasi ini awalnya hanya ditujukan bagi golongan berpendidikan Jawa.

Saat ini tanggal berdirinya Budi Utomo, 20 Mei, diperingati sebagai Hari Kebangkitan Nasional.

Latar Belakang Lahirnya Boedi Oetomo
Budi Utomo lahir dari inspirasi yang dikemukakan oleh Wahidin Soedirohoesodo alumnus Sekolah Dokter Djawa, disaat beliau sedang berkeliling ke setiap sekolah untuk menyebarkan beasiswa, salah satunya di STOVIA (School tot Opleiding van Inlandsche Artsen).

Sejak saat itu, mahasiswa STOVIA mulai terbuka pikirannya dan mereka mulai mengadakan pertemuan-pertemuan dan diskusi yang sering dilakukan di perpustakaan STOVIA oleh beberapa mahasiswa, antara lain Soetomo, Goenawan Mangoenkoesoemo, Goembrek, Saleh, dan Soeleman.

Mereka memikirkan nasib bangsa yang sangat buruk dan selalu dianggap bodoh dan tidak bermartabat oleh bangsa lain (Belanda), serta bagaimana cara memperbaiki keadaan yang amat buruk dan tidak adil itu.

Para pejabat pangreh praja (sekarang pamong praja) kebanyakan hanya memikirkan kepentingan sendiri dan jabatan.

Dalam praktik mereka pun tampak menindas rakyat dan bangsa sendiri, misalnya dengan menarik pajak sebanyak-banyaknya untuk menyenangkan hati atasan dan para penguasa Belanda.

 

Pada hari Minggu, 20 Mei 1908,

pada pukul sembilan pagi, bertempat di salah satu ruang belajar yaitu di ruang Anatomi gedung STOVIA, Soetomo menjelaskan gagasannya. Dia menyatakan bahwa hari depan bangsa dan Tanah Air ada di tangan mereka. Maka lahirlah Boedi Oetomo. Namun, para pemuda juga menyadari bahwa tugas mereka sebagai mahasiswa kedokteran masih banyak, di samping harus berorganisasi. Oleh karena itu, mereka berpendapat bahwa “kaum tua”-lah yang harus memimpin Budi Utomo, sedangkan para pemuda sendiri akan menjadi motor yang akan menggerakkan organisasi itu.

Sepuluh tahun pertama Budi Utomo mengalami beberapa kali pergantian pemimpin organisasi.

Kebanyakan memang para pemimpin berasal kalangan “priayi” atau para bangsawan dari kalangan keraton, seperti Raden Adipati Tirtokoesoemo, bekas Bupati Karanganyar (presiden pertama Budi Utomo), dan Pangeran Ario Noto Dirodjo dari Keraton Pakualaman.

Pada tahun 1912

pelatihan dokter kedua di Surabaya dibuka,  Sekolah Kedokteran Hindia  (NIAS). Kedua sekolah (Medical School dan NIAS) dibuka untuk semua orang dan bagi perempuan.

Hal ini tidak mustahil bahwa itu diharapkan oleh kelompok-kelompok baru – anak perempuan dan non-pribumi – mengakui, kekurangan dokter dalam pengurangan koloni. Sekarang semua populasi dirawat, mengubah judul dokter dokter India asli [ii].

 Meskipun gadis yang mengikuti program tersebut, tetapi mereka memiliki pelatihan mereka sendiri dan membayar untuk akomodasi mereka sendiri selama studi yang bersangkutan.

Siswa laki-laki diberi uang saku dan tinggal di sebuah pondok pesantren. Sebagai gantinya, mereka memiliki kontrak yang disebut mortgage bond.  

Bahkan saat masuk mereka ke Medical School telah mereka menandatangani deklarasi di mana mereka berkomitmen setelah lulus mereka setidaknya sepuluh tahun berturut-turut dalam pelayanan pemerintah untuk melayani pada setiap lokasi di mana pemerintah mereka akan mengirim [iii]

Tujuan pemerintah jelas:.

” Dalam pandangan dari keinginan untuk ikatan antara Negara dan dokter-Djawa memperkuat dan  mencegah mereka merasa rendah diri  karena sampai sekarang sering terjadi, rasa hormat mereka untuk perubahan pensiun lebih menguntungkan “[iv]

Pada keberangkatan. dari publik dalam sepuluh tahun memiliki harga penuh akan dikembalikan tanpa layanan. 

Beberapa wanita Belanda di Batavia mendirikan beasiswa di (Beasiswa Pelatihan Dokter Pribumi Perempuan,Sovia).

Milik pendiri termasuk Charlotte Jacobs, adik Aletta Jacobs dan apoteker di Batavia, penulis Marie-Kooij dari Zeggelen dan Elisabeth van Deventer-Maas, istri penulis “eereschuld A. Dana tersebut dimaksudkan tidak hanya  untuk mendukung pendidikan dokter wanita , tetapi juga bahwa  Mahasiswa perawat  pertama yang pada tahun 1912 menggunakan PEF terdaftar di Sekolah Kedokteran, Marie Thomas.

The IIAV (International Institute dan Arsip untuk Perempuan di Amsterdam)  memiliki sebuah foto di mana dewan Sovia pose dengan Klantje pertama mereka.


Marie Thomas

source

Liesbeth Hesselink,


Marie E. Thomas dilahirkan pada tahun 1896 di Likupang (dekat Manado Minahasa).

Tidak diketahui bagaimana mereka mendapat ide untuk mendaftar untuk pendidikan  sarjana Kedokteran .

Sejak 1889,

 Hanya  berasal dari siswa lulusan ELS (Sekolah Dasar eropah-european large school), . Sekolah utama yang tidak dapat diikuti  oleh untuk anak perempuan, berdasarkan hal ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa Marie telah menjadi  lulusan  Sekolah  ELS.

Dalam data kelahirannya ,  mungkin Marie Thomas  yang begitu muda  sudah lulus dari sekolah  ELS Manado , dan pada  usia yang sangat muda, harus meninggalkan rumah keluarga untuk sekolah di . Manado selama  empat tahun untuk mengikuti sekolah  Sekolah Eropa tersebut 

Menurut laporan tahunan untuk tahun 1911,

hanya ada gadis Kristen pribumi di ELS. Dari ini, Anda dapat menyimpulkan bahwa Marie beragama agama Kristen .

Sejak 1902

 Calon Mahasiwa  Sekolah Kedokteran harus mengikuti  ujian masuk secara tertulis.

Setelah Marie ini berhasil, ia pindah ke Batavia yang jauh. Mungkin dia menemukan tempat tinggal dengan kerabat atau orang-orang dari Minahasa,dari tempat kelahirannya.

Di sekolah dia adalah satu-satunya gadis di antara sekitar 180 anak laki-laki dan bahkan  dua tahun kemudian sesama mahasiswa dari Minahasa , Anna Warouw,   juga terdaftar yang kemudian juga lulus sebagai doker wanita kedua di Indonesia..

 

Pada tahun 1922

lulus

Marie  lulus dari  Sekolah Kedokteran, pada waktu itu sekolah dan pelatihan kedokteran  berlangsung selama  10 tahun.

Setelah lulus nya, Marie menjadi pusat perhatian dan ia dihujani dengan hadiah atas  kinerjanya  yang luar biasa, tapi  posisi soliter tetap  ditekankan.

Dia bergabung dengan pemerintah dan mulai bekerja di rumah sakit besar (CBZ saat ini RSCM ) di Weltevreden (pinggiran kota Batavia saat itu ).

Dia mengkhususkan diri dalam bidang kebidanan.

Dalam iklan yang pernikahannya diumumkan ia menyebut dirinya asisten obstetri di Weltevreden.

The Museum Boerhaave memiliki beberapa foto yang diambil saat ia keluar dari rumah sakit wanita, ini dibuat adalah beberapa hari sebelum pernikahannya .

Di balik salah satu gambar menulis N.J.A.F. Boerma, dosen kebidanan sejak tahun 1920  di Sekolah Kedokteran dan sebagai seorang dokter perempuan di CBZ, “untuk menghormati Ibu Marie Thomas, yang sayangnya meninggalkan kami.”

 

English version

In the Dutch East Indies in 1851
establish a medical school, the first school physician Java and then called the School of Medicine (School of Indigenous Up Training of Physicians).
For a long time it was only open to young indigenous men. Maybe Aletta Jacobs, the first female doctor in the Netherlands, affecting acceptance of girls into Medical School.

Indeed, during his world tour on April 18, 1912 meeting with the Governor General AWF Idenburg. It has it –

as evidenced by the letter of the journey – calling for acceptance of girls medical training:
“Even when discussing female to female doctors and hospitals for indigenous women, only female medical assistance and training Djawas female doctor, HE was. Much closer to us than many officials with the issues that we discussed earlier.

Until now had all the native girls, who signed up for the doctor Djawa school, back out, always under the pretext, but only because the stakeholders in the department of difficulty sharing power with young people to receive medical education is too heavy and recognize the desire to have a female doctor for indigenous women do not feel quite “[i].

In 1912
The second physician training in Surabaya opened, the Dutch East Indies Medical School (NIAS). Both schools (Medical School and NIAS) is open to all people and for women. It is not impossible that it was expected by the new groups – young women and non-native – admitted that the shortage of doctors in the reduction of the colony. Now all the treated population, change the title of the original Indian doctor doctor [ii].

 Although the girl who attend the program, but they have their own training and pay for their own accommodation during the study in question. \

Male students were given pocket money and living in a boarding school. Instead, they have a contract called a mortgage bond.

Even when they go to Medical School have them sign a declaration in which they committed after their graduation at least ten consecutive years in government service to serve at any location where their government will send [iii]

Purpose of government is clear:. “In view of the desire for bonding between the State and strengthen the doctor-Java and zoodoende prevent them, because until now often the case, their respect for the changes in retirement benefit” [iv]
On departure. from the public in the past ten years has the full price will be returned without service.

Some Dutch women in Batavia established scholarship (Scholarship Training Indigenous Women Physicians, Sovia).

Owned founders include Charlotte Jacobs, sister Aletta Jacobs and pharmacists in Batavia, author Marie-Kooij from Zeggelen and Elisabeth van Deventer-Maas, wife of the author of “eereschuld A. Dana were intended not only to support the study of female doctors, but also that the nurses. Student The first in 1912 using PEF enrolled in the School of Medicine, Marie Thomas. The IIAV (International Institute and Archives for the Women in Amsterdam) is to have a picture in which the board Sovia pose with their first Klantje.

Marie Thomas

Marie E. Thomas was born in 1896 in Likupang (near Manado Minahasa). It is not known how they got the idea to apply for graduate medical education.

Since 1889,
 only students admitted to ELS (Elementary School), or head of school already. Primary schools were not accessible for girls, from which it can be concluded that Marie had become ELS.

At birth no ELS, maybe he is so Manado through, making them at a very young age, the family had to leave. Manado four European Schools,

according to the annual report for 1911,
only indigenous Christian girl in ELS. From this you can conclude that Christianity is Marie.

Since 1902
 School of Medicine is a candidate for the written entrance examination.

Following Marie’s work, he moved to Batavia far. Maybe he found shelter with relatives or people from the Minahasa, its birthplace.

At school she was the only girl among the approximately 180 boys and two years later a fellow student, Anna Warouw, even from the Minahasa registered.

In 1922
Marie graduated graduated from the Medical School, the training takes place at the time was 10 years.

After his graduation, Marie inserted into the center of attention and showered with gifts, a superb performance, but also the position of solitary emphasized.

He joined the government and went to work at a large hospital (CBZ) in Weltevreden (Batavia suburbs).

She specializes in the field of obstetrics. In the ad that announced his marriage he calls her obstetric assistant at Weltevreden. The Museum Boerhaave has some photos he took her out of the hospital, this was made a few days before her wedding.

Behind one write image N.J.A.F. Boerma, obstetrics since 1920 lecturer at the School of Medicine and as a woman doctor in CBZ, “in honor of Mother Marie Thomas, who sadly left us.”

Original info in Dutch

In Nederlands-Indië werd in 1851 een doktersschool opgericht; eerst dokter djawa-school geheten en later STOVIA (School Tot Opleiding Van Inlandsche Artsen). Lange tijd stond deze alleen open voor Inlandse jongens. Misschien heeft Aletta Jacobs, de eerste vrouwelijke arts in Nederland, invloed uitgeoefend op de toelating van meisjes tot de STOVIA. Zeker is dat zij tijdens haar wereldreis op 18 april 1912 een ontmoeting had met gouverneur generaal A.W.F. Idenburg. Hierbij heeft zij – zo blijkt uit haar reisbrieven – gepleit voor toelating van meisjes tot de geneeskunde opleiding:

“Ook bij de bespreking van vrouwelijke doctoren voor de inlandsche vrouwen en voor hospitalen van deze vrouwen, met uitsluitend vrouwelijke medische hulp en de opleiding van vrouwelijke doctor djawas, stond Z.Exc. veel dichter bij ons dan menige zijner ambtenaren met wij deze kwesties reeds vroeger bespraken. Tot dusver worden nog alle inlandsche meisjes, die zich aanmelden voor de doctor djawa-school, teruggewezen, altijd onder een of ander voorwendsel, doch eenvoudig omdat de machthebbenden bij dat departement de moeilijkheid van het gezamenlijk met de jonge mannen te ontvangen medisch onderwijs te zwaar inzien en de wenschelijkheid van het hebben van vrouwelijke doctoren voor de inlandsche vrouwen niet genoeg voelen.”[i]

In 1912 werd een tweede artsopleiding in Soerabaja geopend, de Nederlandsch Indische Artsenschool (NIAS). Beide scholen (STOVIA en NIAS) werden opengesteld voor alle bevolkingsgroepen en voor vrouwen. Het is niet onaannemelijk dat men hoopte door nieuwe groepen  – meisjes en niet-Inlanders – toe te laten, het tekort aan artsen in de kolonie te verminderen.  Nu alle bevolkingsgroepen werden toegelaten, veranderde de titel van Inlandsch arts in Indisch arts.[ii]  Weliswaar werden meisjes tot de opleiding toegelaten, maar zij moesten hun opleiding zelf betalen en voor eigen onderdak tijdens de studie zorgen. Mannelijke studenten kregen een toelage en verbleven in een internaat. In ruil hiervoor moesten zij een zogenoemde akte van verband aangaan. Al bij hun toelating tot de STOVIA moesten zij een verklaring tekenen, waarbij zij zich verbonden na hun afstuderen minstens tien achtereenvolgende jaren in gouvernementsdienst te dienen op elke standplaats waarheen het gouvernement hen zou zenden.[iii] De doelstelling van het gouvernement was duidelijk: “Met het oog op de wenschelijkheid om den band tusschen den Staat en de dokters-djawa te versterken, en zoodoende te voorkomen dat zij, zooals tot dusver veelvuldig voorkwam, hunne betrekking voor eene meer lucratieve bij particulieren verwisselen”.[iv] Bij vertrek uit overheidsdienst binnen tien jaar moest het volle pond worden terugbetaald ongeacht het aantal dienstjaren.

Enkele Nederlandse vrouwen in Batavia richtten een studiefonds op (Studiefonds voor Opleiding van Vrouwelijke Inlandsche Artsen, SOVIA). Tot de oprichtsters behoorde onder andere Charlotte Jacobs, de zuster van Aletta Jacobs en apothekeres te Batavia, de schrijfster Marie Kooij-van Zeggelen en Elisabeth van Deventer-Maas, de echtgenote van de schrijver van ‘Een eereschuld’. Het fonds beoogde niet alleen de studie van vrouwelijke doktoren te ondersteunen, maar ook die van verpleegsters. De eerste leerlinge die zich in 1912 met gebruikmaking van het studiefonds inschreef aan de STOVIA was Marie Thomas. Het IIAV (Internationaal Instituut en Archief voor de Vrouwenbeweging te Amsterdam) is in het bezit van een foto waar het bestuur van SOVIA poseert met hun eerste ‘klantje’.

Marie Thomas

Marie E. Thomas werd in 1896 geboren in Likupang (in de buurt van Manado, Minahasa). Het is niet bekend hoe zij op het idee kwam om zich in te schrijven voor de artsopleiding. Sinds 1889 werden alleen leerlingen toegelaten die op een ELS (Europese Lagere School) of een hoofdenschool hadden gezeten. Hoofdenscholen waren niet toegankelijk voor meisjes, waaruit geconcludeerd kan worden dat Marie op een ELS heeft gezeten. In haar geboorteplaats was echter geen ELS; waarschijnlijk heeft ze die dus in Manado doorlopen, waardoor ze al op heel jonge leeftijd het ouderlijk huis heeft moeten verlaten. In Manado waren vier Europese scholen; volgens het jaarverslag over 1911 zaten er alleen christelijke inlandse meisjes op de ELS. Hieruit kun je afleiden dat Marie de christelijke godsdienst had.

Sinds 1902 moesten gegadigden voor de STOVIA een schriftelijk toelatingsexamen afleggen. Nadat Marie hiervoor was geslaagd, vertrok ze naar het verre Batavia. Misschien vond ze daar onderdak bij familie of bij mensen uit de Minahasa, haar geboortestreek. Op school was ze het enige meisje tussen ongeveer 180 jongens tot twee jaar later een medeleerlinge, Anna Warouw, ook uit de Minahasa zich inschreef.

In 1922 studeerde Marie af aan de STOVIA; de opleiding duurde in die tijd 10 jaar. Bij het behalen van haar diploma werd Marie in het zonnetje gezet en overladen met cadeaus, hetgeen haar uitzonderlijke prestatie maar ook haar eenzame positie benadrukte. Ze trad in dienst van de overheid en ging werken in het grote ziekenhuis (CBZ) in Weltevreden (een voorstad van Batavia). Ze specialiseerde zich op het gebied van de verloskunde. In de advertentie waarin haar huwelijk bekend werd gemaakt noemt zij zich verloskundig-assistente te Weltevreden. Het museum Boerhaave heeft enkele foto’s waar ze afscheid neemt van het vrouwenhospitaal; deze zijn enkele dagen voor haar huwelijk gemaakt.  Achterop een van de foto’s schrijft N.J.A.F. Boerma, sinds 1920 docent verloskunde aan de STOVIA en als vrouwenarts werkzaam in het CBZ, “ter eere van Mej. Marie Thomas die ons helaas gaat verlaten”.

Dr. Thomas aan het werk als verloskundige

 

Dr. Thomas bekerja sebagai bidan


Marie memiliki suaminya Mohamad Yusuf di Fakultas kedoteran , dia duduk untuk waktu yang lama bersama-sama di dalam kelas.

Dalam transisi dari persiapan ke departemen medis dari Sekolah Kedokteran  telah baik untuk  tugas  geometri. Suaminya  berasal dari Solok (pantai barat Sumatera).

Mungkin dia bukan seorang Kristen, karena ELS satunya Solok akhir tahun 1910 hanya untuk anak laki-laki asli non kristen  – dan anak laki-laki dan perempuan Eropa lebih lanjut.

Dia bekerja pada saat pernikahannya sebagai oftalmik(dokter mata) ke Padang (pantai barat Sumatera).

Pernikahan itu dalam dua hal tertentu: kedua pasangan memiliki dua agama yang berbeda sebagai etnis yang lain, mereka masing-masing terletak di bagian yang berbeda dari Indonesia.

Setelah pernikahannya, Marie menempatkan dirinya sebagai dokter pemerintah di Padang, tapi setelah 1931 itu tidak disebutkan seperti itu.
Tampaknya tiga puluhan pasangan awal abad kedua puluh yang hidup  di Weltevreden .

Pada tahun 1931

itu dinyatakan bangkrut karena  Mohamad Yusuf, yang  merupakan dokter pribadi di Weltevreden mengalami  peristiwa dramatis bagi pasangan tersebut ,  sehingga Mohamad harus  ditahan di penjara Struiswijk.

 Pada tahun 1932

 Marie bergabung dengan Dewan Persatoean-Minahasa [Indonesia  Minahasa].

Ini partai politik nasionalis moderat, didirikan pada tahun 1927, yang mengabulkan gugatan dari Indonesia federal untuk menjamin identitas dan otonomi Minahasa.

Meskipun sekarang Marie yang menikah dengan orang sumatra , hatinya masih tanah  kelahirannya.

Presiden Persatoean Minahasa, Sam Ratu Langie kemudian di Dewan Rakyat (pseudo-parlemen di Hindia Belanda), jadi mungkin terjadi papan di Batavia. Ini mungkin tampak seperti Marie Belanda mitranya Aletta Jacobs samping dokter juga menjadi aktif secara politik.

Keanggotaan Dewan hanya berlangsung tiga tahun, saya menduga bahwa pasangan pergi pindah ke Bukittinggi (sebelumnya Fort de Kock) . Mungkin Marie sebagai pendiri Sekolah Kebidanan Bukittinggi   dan juga mengajar di sana.

Pada tahun 1936

 mengambil tempat pertemuan Ikatan  Dokter Indonesia (IDI)  di rumahnya yang ditujukan  untuk membangun Kesehatan Lokal , yang pada waktu itu tidak bekerja. 

Namun Beberapa tahun kemudian. pada tahun 1940,

Bendahara  dijabat Marie , setahun setelah suaminya memegang fungsi ini.

Marie meninggal pada tahun 1966.

Suaminya sudah almarhum pada tahun 1958. Tidak diketahui apakah pasangan memiliki anak.

 *Dr Iwan masih ingat pada tahun 1972 saat assisten bagian Paru-Paru dibawah bimbingan Prof Ilyas tiap hari melintasi rumah almarhum Dr Marie Yusuf yang lokasinya disebelah Pusat Pembrabtasan Penyakit TBC Paru d Bukittinggi, rumah itu dalam keadaan kosong tidak terpelihara, dan saat ini sudah tidak ada lagi sudah dibangun bangunan baru, hal ini akan diteliti lebih lanjut tentang sejarahnya pada saat mendatang-catatan dr Iwan)

 English version

Dr. Thomas worked as a midwife

Marie had her husband Mohamad Yusuf knows Medical School, he sat for a long time together in the classroom. In preparation for the transition from the medical department of the Medical School has both a duty to geometry. Her husband is from SMF (west coast of Sumatra).
Maybe he was not a Christian, because only ELS SMF late 1910s the only non-Christian native boys – and boys and girls further European.

He worked at the time of her marriage as an ophthalmic to Padang (Sumatra’s west coast). The wedding was in two specific things: the couple have two different religions as other ethnic groups, they are each located in different parts of Indonesia.

After her marriage, Marie established itself as a government doctor in Padang, but after 1931 it was not mentioned as such.
It seems a couple early thirties of the twentieth century in Weltevreden life.

In 1931
was declared bankrupt by the Mohammed Yusuf, he was personal physician in Weltevreden. It should be a dramatic event for the couple, Mohamad Struiswijk in prison.

 In 1932
joined by Marie joined the Board Persatoean-Minahasa [United Minahasa]. This moderate nationalist political party, founded in 1927, which granted federal lawsuit from Indonesia to ensure the identity and autonomy of Minahasa.

Although Marie married now Sumatra, his heart is still his homeland. President Persatoean Minahasa, Sam Queen Langie later in the House of Representatives (pseudo-parliament in the Dutch East Indies), so it may be the board in Batavia. It may seem like Aletta Jacobs Marie Dutch counterpart next doctor also became active in politics.

Council membership only lasted three years, I suspect that the couple went to Bukittinggi (formerly Fort de Kock) move. Maybe Marie as a midwife school founded and also taught there.

In 1936
 meeting took place in his house devoted to the local chapter of the Indonesian Doctors Association to build, which at that time did not work. A few years later, however.

In 1940,
Marie treasurer, one year after her husband holding the function.

Marie died in 1966. Her husband was deceased in 1958. It is not known whether the couple had children.

 

Original info

Marie heeft haar echtgenoot Mohamad Joesoef op de STOVIA leren kennen; ze zaten lange tijd bij elkaar in de klas. Bij de overgang van de voorbereidende naar de medische afdeling van de STOVIA hadden beide een taak voor meetkunde. Haar man was afkomstig uit Solok (Sumatra’s Westkust). Waarschijnlijk was hij geen Christen, want op de enige ELS in Solok zaten eind 1910 alleen niet-Christelijke Inlandse jongens – en verder Europese jongens en meisjes. Hij werkte op het moment van zijn huwelijk als oogheelkundige te Padang (Sumatra’s Westkust). Het huwelijk was in twee opzichten bijzonder: de beide partners hadden zowel een andere godsdienst als een andere etniciteit, ze waren elk afkomstig uit een ander deel van Indonesië. Na haar huwelijk vestigde Marie zich als gouvernementsarts te Padang, maar na 1931 werd zij niet meer als zodanig genoemd.

Het lijkt erop dat het echtpaar begin jaren dertig van de twintigste eeuw in Weltevreden woonde. In 1931 werd namelijk het faillissement uitgesproken over haar Mohamad Joesoef; hij was toen particulier geneesheer in Weltevreden. Dit moet een dramatische gebeurtenis zijn geweest voor het echtpaar; Mohamad werd gedetineerd in de gevangenis te Struiswijk. In 1932 trad Marie toe tot het bestuur van Persatoean-Minahasa [Verenigd Minahasa]. Deze gematigd nationalistische politieke partij, opgericht in 1927, was voorstander van een federaal Indonesia met garantie voor de identiteit en autonomie van de Minahasa. Ook al was Marie inmiddels met een Sumatraan getrouwd, haar hart klopte nog steeds voor haar geboortestreek. De voorzitter van Persatoean Minahasa, Sam Ratu Langie zat toen in de Volksraad (het pseudo-parlement in Nederlands Indië), dus waarschijnlijk vonden de bestuursvergaderingen in Batavia plaats. Even leek het alsof Marie net als haar Nederlandse evenknie Aletta Jacobs  naast het arts-zijn ook politiek actief werd. Het bestuurslidmaatschap duurde echter maar drie jaar; ik vermoed dat het echtpaar toen naar Bukittingi (het vroegere Fort de Kock) verhuisde. Waarschijnlijk heeft Marie daar een vroedvrouwenschool opgericht en heeft zij daar ook les gegeven. In 1936 vond in haar huis een vergadering plaats die tot doel had om een plaatselijke afdeling van de Vereeniging van Indonesische Geneeskundigen op te richten, hetgeen op dat moment niet lukte. Een paar jaar later echter wel. In 1940 was Marie penningmeester; het jaar daarop bekleedde haar man deze functie. Marie overleed in 1966. Haar man was al in 1958 overleden. Het is niet bekend of het echtpaar kinderen heeft gehad.

 Dr.Oen

DItulis pada 21 Januari 2011 oleh

:::dr.Oen Boen Ing :::

Oen Boen Ing (lahir 3 Maret 1903, meninggal di Solo, 30 Oktober 1982) adalah seorang dokter terkenal yang sosiawan di kota Solo. Ia juga dikenal sebagai Kanjeng Raden Mas Tumenggung Oen Boen Ing Darmohoesodo.

Latar belakang
Oen Boen Ing dilahirkan dalam sebuah keluarga pedagang tembakau yang kaya-raya, cucu seorang sinshe Tionghoa yang juga suka menolong banyak orang. Karena pengaruh kakeknya itulah, ia kemudian dikenal sebagai dokter yang banyak membantu pasiennya, khususnya mereka yang tidak mampu membayar biaya dan ongkos membeli obat-obatan.

Karena itulah, sejak lulus sekolah menengah, Boen Ing sudah ingin mempelajari ilmu kedokteran Barat dan menjadi dokter. Namun keinginan ini ditentang keras oleh keluarganya, karena mereka tidak mau ia menjadi kaya dari penderitaan orang yang sakit. Meskipun demikian, ia tetap bertekad mewujudkan cita-citanya untuk menjadi dokter. Ia pun mendaftarkan diri di School tot Opleiding van Inlandsche Arsten (STOVIA) di Batavia, dan lulus pada 193

Mulai mengabdi
Nama Oen Boen Ing tidak bisa dipisahkan dari keberadaan Rumah Sakit Panti Kosala yang dimulai sebagai sebuah poliklinik kecil yang bernama Tsi Sheng Yuan atau Jisheng Yuan pada 29 Januari 1933, di sebuah paviliun sederhana di Jl. Mesen 106, Solo. Nama poliklinik itu berarti Lembaga Penolong Kehidupan. Poliklinik ini didirikan oleh delapan orang pemuda Tionghoa yang tergabung dalam Hua Chiao Tsing Nien Hui (disingkat HCTNH), yang artinya Perhimpunan Pemuda Tionghoa. Mereka itu adalah Jap Kioe Ong, Tan Kiong Djien, The Tjhioe Tik, Sie Ngo Siang, Sie Boen Tik, Gan Kok Sien, Tan Tiauw An, dan Jap Tiang Liem.

Pada tahun 1935 Dr. Oen Boen Ing mulai terlibat dalam pelayanan klinik tersebut dan kemudian menjadi pemprakarsa berdirinya Yayasan Kesehatan Tsi Sheng Yuan, yang kemudian membentuk RS Panti Kosala. Hal ini terjadi sekitar tahun 1951, ketika Poliklinik Tsi Sheng Yuan dilepaskan dari HCTNH. Dr. Oen Boen Ing menganjurkan agar Tsi Sheng Yuan menjadi sebuah yayasan untuk menampung kegiatan poliklinik.

Rumah sakit yang didirikan oleh Yayasan Tsi Sheng Yuan ini biasa disebut sebagai Rumah Sakit Kandang Sapi, karena pada 1954 rumah sakit ini dipindahkan ke daerah Kandang Sapi/Mojosongo (sampai sekarang) dan menjadi rumah sakit lengkap. Pada masa Orde Baru, nama rumah sakit ini diubah menjadi RS Panti Kosala.

Ikut berrjuang
Sampai tahun 1942, poliklinik Tsi Sheng Yuan banyak membantu Chineesche Burger Organisatie (CBO) dan semasa pendudukan Jepang dikelola oleh Kakyo Sokai (Gabungan Organisasi-organisasi Tionghoa). Ketika perang kemerdekaan datang, poliklinik berubah fungsi menjadi rumah sakit darurat, menampung para pejuang dan pengungsi.

Menurut kesaksian Soelarso, Ketua Paguyuban Rumpun Eks Tentara Pelajar Detasemen II Brigade XVII, “…tanpa menghiraukan tembakan Belanda, Dr Oen keluar masuk wilayah TNI untuk mengobati para prajurit…”

Angka tiga punya makna penting
Sebagai dokter, Oen Boen Ing terkenal tidak membeda-bedakan pasiennya, apapun juga kelompok etnis, suku, agama, dan kelas sosialnya. Bahkan pasien dibiarkannya mengisi ataupun tidak mengisi kotak uang yang terletak di ruang praktiknya secara suka rela. “Tugas seorang dokter adalah menolong,” demikian semboyan kehidupan dan pelayanan Dr. Oen.

Selain itu, Dr. Oen selalu membuka praktiknya sejak pk. 3.00 dini hari. Konon ini dihubungkan dengan hari kelahirannya, 3 Maret 1903. “Maka semua karya saya sebaiknya dimulai dengan angka 3,” begitu katanya. Angka tiga memang menjadi ciri kehidupan Dr. Oen Boen Ing. Nomor telepon di rumahnya 3333. Bangunan pertama di Rumah Sakit Kandang Sapi yang didirikannya, dinamai Triganda, dan diresmikan pada 3 Maret 1963.

Ketika Dr. Oen meninggal dunia pada 1982, rakyat banyak sungguh merasakan kehilangan yang besar. Hal ini tampak dari kehadiran ribuan rakyat kecil kepadanya yang berdiri di tepi jalan untuk memberikan penghormatan mereka yang terakhir kepada orang yang telah berjasa memberikan kehidupan yang lebih sehat kepada mereka di tengah-tengah keberadaan mereka yang serba kekurangan.

Penghargaan
Karena jasa-jasanya dan pengabdiannya yang tanpa pamrih kepada masyarakat, Dr. Oen Boen Ing mendapatkan penghargaan Satya Lencana Bhakti Sosial dari pemerintah Republik Indonesia pada 30 Oktober 1979. Beliau juga dianugerahi gelar kebangsawanan oleh Sri Mangkunegoro VIII Solo, dengan nama Kanjeng Raden Toemenggoeng Oen Boen Ing Darmohoesodo. Pada 24 Januari 1993 Sri Mangkunegoro IX menaikkan gelarnya dari Kanjeng Raden Toemenggoeng menjadi Kanjeng Raden Mas Toemenggoeng Hario Oen Boen Ing Darmohoesodo.

Apa Hubungan antara Trigliserida dan Diabetes?

Trigliserida ini telah disebut sebagai “lemak jelek” tapi itu lebih merupakan respons emosional dari satu yang kukuh berakar pada fakta ilmiah.

Namun hubungannya dengan diabetes tidak bisa diabaikan.

Kolesterol telah diidentifikasi sebagai faktor risiko penyakit jantung. Ada iklan yang tak terhitung jumlahnya dan outlet informasi yang mengkonfirmasi masalah yang berhubungan dengan diet yang tidak terkontrol.

Demikian juga ada pil dan pilihan makanan yang dipromosikan sebagai bagian dari solusi.

Konsumen mendapatkan hasil yang bervariasi tergantung pada genetik dan tahap di mana kondisi ini ditangkap.

Program latihan juga direkomendasikan sebagai bagian dari proses hidup sehat.


Pertanyaannya tetap, apakah semua intervensi ini telah efektif atau apakah mereka hanya cara bagi instansi periklanan untuk membuat lebih banyak uang.


• Kumpulan lemak yang dapat menyebabkan kerusakan: Dengan konsensus, trigliserida adalah bundel kecil lemak yang ditemukan dalam aliran darah. Mereka meningkat jumlahnya setelah kita mengkonsumsi makanan.

 

Tubuh akan memproduksi lemak-lemak dari makanan yang kita makan terutama jika mereka lemak di alam.

 

Diperkirakan bahwa 90% dari seluruh kandungan lemak non-daging tanpa lemak terdiri dari trigliserida.

 

Oleh karena itu kebiasaan belanja dari kelompok risiko harus mencerminkan bahaya.

• Trigliserida tidak universal buruk:

Diet yang seimbang harus mengandung semua elemen yang relevan. Telah diperkirakan bahwa trigliserida memiliki proporsi 99% dari semua lemak yang tersimpan dalam tubuh manusia.

 

Anda mendapatkan sumber energi jangka panjang dari deposito ini lemak. Mereka benar-benar disimpan dalam lebih padat daripada protein dari otot atau bahkan pati.

 

 Insulin diperlukan untuk membentuk lemak. Antara makan dan semalam, trigliserida diubah menjadi energi.

 

Kadar insulin puasa dan rendah akan memicu reaksi ini. Sel-sel lemak memiliki kapasitas penyimpanan yang sangat tinggi dan ini dapat menyebabkan obesitas pada situasi tertentu.

 

 Jika Anda sedang menjalani puasa luas atau sama sekali tidak ada insulin dalam tubuh maka hati akan mengkonversi produk pemecahan lemak menjadi keton.


• komplikasi kesehatan dan manifestasi mereka:

 

 Hal ini sering terjadi rendahnya tingkat HDL atau kolesterol baik dikaitkan dengan tingkat tinggi trigliserida.

 

Ini kemudian didiagnosis sebagai dislipidemia diabetik. Ini adalah kombinasi dari faktor-faktor yang dapat menempatkan hidup pasien dalam bahaya.

 

Pasien dalam situasi ini akan memiliki kelompok kecil, padat dan akhirnya berbahaya dari LDL atau kolesterol berbahaya.

 

Format yang terakhir ini tidak diinginkan berdasarkan sifat aterogenik nya. Akhirnya orang tersebut akan mengembangkan

obesitas sentral.

Ini adalah salah satu fitur mendefinisikan sindrom metabolik.


• Sekitar 80% dari semua penderita diabetes tipe 2 akan memiliki kondisi ini. Akhirnya orang tersebut meninggal lebih cepat akibat penyakit jantung.
• Menetapkan tolok ukur untuk orang yang sehat: Sangat penting bahwa Anda memiliki beberapa tujuan pada seberapa banyak trigliserida yang Anda akan merekam pada skala standar. Ini merupakan indikator yang mendasari kondisi sehat. Oleh karena itu

 

Anda akan berada dalam posisi untuk menerapkan strategi pencegahan bila diperlukan untuk melakukannya.

 

 Tingkat normal trigliserida adalah 150 mg / dl. Angka batas adalah antara 150 dan 199.

 

 Tingginya adalah antara 200 dan 499 sedangkan apa pun lebih dari 500 adalah hal yang mendesak.

 

Keadaan puasa normal akan memiliki tingkat membaca antara 100 dan 150 mg / dl.

 

Setelah makan yang normal angkanya akan meningkat menjadi 300.

 

Pasien dengan diabetes tipe 2 akan mengalami peningkatan kadar di kedua saat baik  puasa dan maupun sesuah makan.

 

Sebelum tes lipid panel, Anda harus memiliki beberapa puasa semalam setidaknya selama 12 jam.

 

 Demikian juga tidak dianjurkan untuk mengambil alkohol minimal 24 jam sebelum tes.
• Mengelola tingkat trigliserida dalam tubuh Anda:

 

 Hal ini untuk keuntungan Anda bahwa Anda menjaga kadar zat ini relatif rendah.

 

 Pasien dengan diabetes tipe 2 memiliki faktor risiko tinggi dan perlu bekerja sedikit yang ekstra untuk memastikan bahwa tingkat mereka 150 mg / dl atau bahkan lebih rendah. Ini akan membantu mereka mengurangi kemungkinan terkena penyakit kardiovaskular.

 

Beberapa orang dalam kategori ini telah melakukan tingkat yang lebih dari 400. Setelah Anda mulai memukul tanda 1000 maka Anda akan menderita lesi kulit atau xanthomas, kehilangan memori, pankreas dan sakit perut. Intervensi diperlukan pada tahap ini untuk menyelamatkan hidup Anda.


• Respon klinis:

 

Kombinasi obat dan manajemen diet dapat memiliki hasil positif. Pertama-tama Anda harus bertujuan untuk pengendalian glukosa. Sebuah resep khas akan mencakup Statin seperti Zocor, Lipitor, Pravachol, Zetia, Crestor dan Vytorin.

 

 Obat-obat ini dimaksudkan untuk menurunkan kadar kolesterol Anda secara umum. Pasien diabetes tipe 2 mungkin memerlukan terapi kombinasi untuk mencapai tingkat yang aman dari trigliserida.

 

Anda juga harus memikirkan cara-cara menurunkan kadar LDL Anda. Kadang-kadang dokter akan merekomendasikan serangkaian fibrate seperti gemfibrozil Lopid, Trico fenofibrate dan asam nikotinat atau niasin. Hal ini juga dianjurkan untuk memasukkan minyak ikan dalam diet Anda.


Setelah menyadari bahaya yang dapat timbul dari trigliserida dalam kaitannya dengan diabetes, Anda harus datang dengan perubahan gaya hidup praktis yang akan membantu Anda menghindari fase berbahaya.

Dalam beberapa kasus Anda mungkin harus membatasi asupan lemak Anda sepenuhnya. Masalahnya adalah bahwa langkah ini dapat menyebabkan Anda mengambil karbohidrat bahkan lebih dan karena itu meningkatkan tingkat trigliserida dalam aliran darah Anda.

 Beberapa buku merekomendasikan lemak substitusi sehat seperti minyak zaitun dan lemak tak jenuh tunggal lainnya.
 

Tidak meningkatkan asupan produk tepung gula atau putih. Asupan Alkohol harus disimpan ke minimum.

Ambil minyak ikan seperti tuna, sarden, salmon, makarel dan ikan.

Mereka mengandung asam lemak omega-3 yang dikenal untuk mengurangi trigliserida.

 

 

Kelainan genetik seperti hipotiroidisme dapat menggabungkan dengan penyakit untuk memperburuk situasi.

Mengambil obat-obatan seperti steroid, pil KB dan Tamoxifen juga bisa menimbulkan masalah. Anda beresiko jika Anda menderita penyakit ginjal, gagal hati dan tekanan darah tinggi

Of the voice of justice


我在报界二十多年,学到了一个教训;不可尽信报纸所言。我国报章必需每年更换出版准证,业者为了生存,不得不抱着有限度的言论自由来经营,为了保证来年能继续出版,就得讨好政府,在“必要”时把一些真相“杀”掉。

不过,报界有更大的“黑手”,不是政府,而是财团。我们华人控制的财团,华商在马来西亚尤其是砂劳越,做生意的手段是有名的利害,往往为了达到赚钱的目的,可以不择手段,只要钱能到手就好,其他的什么礼仪廉耻都不重要。

有时,他们他们在赚钱的过程中“偶然”干了一些见不得光的事,怕记者抖出来,就很难在上流社会立足,所以就会设法把真相盖住,包括有贿赂、恐吓,各种软硬手段都出齐,只要能保住一张脸皮就好。

我生就是一幅牛脾气,很多朋友都认为不适合当记者,时常为了不买账而得罪了很多有头有脸的“社会毒瘤”。多年来我的这些“死对头”一直想把我撬走,包括在我的老板面前打毒针,威胁利诱。直到今年初才成功,这是后话,另会详述。

在砂州当记者,薪水薄得可耻。所以,大部份记者要靠兼职才能生存,我也不例外。第一个月上班就学人招徕广告赚些“干仙”糊口,第一个客户就跟我耍了一招太极拳中最厉害的推拿手,让我毫无招架的能力。

我还记得当时名字最常上报的生意人之中有一个是林启化,他是诗华日报董事长,也是当时有名的大公司林合春号东,我刚打算“骗吃”,第一个想到的对象自然非他莫属。

第一次去林氏办事处,心中紧张得要命,面对林氏,道了来意,他第一句话就问我有没有抽拥。我想,假如告诉他我有十五巴仙好赚,他可能不要登广告了。所以决定说个“白色的谎言”,就否认有“干仙”。生意人毕竟油条得很,他一听我没钱可赚,立刻“安慰”我;既然没有抽佣,那又何必把钱白白送给报社呢,对不对?等以后你有钱赚再说吧!

哇塞,厉害!以后好多年,我都赚不到林先生的钱。直到有一段时期,当林兄当了中华总商会长,而又时常闹绯闻之际,他通过第三者,一个共同的朋友郭孟峤来“暗示”林氏有意跟我套交情,叫我去找他拿广告。我去了,其后多年我的了不少甜头,直到林氏的大老婆觉得心疼而不再登广告为止。林太太时常坐镇公司,操很大的权势。

原来林兄犯了寡人之疾,平时除了杯中之物,还酷爱“酒”后面那个东西,郭孟峤是个执胯子弟,父亲留下了一爿小小的印务馆,平时没什么生意,不知如何攀上了林兄,称兄道弟起来,白天一起吃饭,晚上就上夜总会泡台湾歌星,一道留下风流抽糗史。

林氏原配貌若蛤蟆,据林氏告诉朋友,那是当年在外地遇车祸时受到当时做护士的黄端贞的悉心照料,为了报恩才娶回来,完全没有感情的,不算数。现在有了钱也有了地位,看到漂亮的台湾妞当然会心跳一百。

由于他肯花钱,林兄身边的傍友越来越多,绯闻着实不少。其实他在香港早有个二奶,还有儿女都早已长大,大老婆被瞒在鼓里多年,直到有一年林兄差一点心脏病发作,为了后事才抖出来。大娘刚发现时还闹自杀,不过命大死不了,林兄在香港这个二奶据说晚景相当凄凉,身后萧条,后来有的儿女还进了精神病院。

林兄的桃色新闻不断,连他自己的诗华日报都觉得不登都过不去。有一次林兄带了一个台湾婆到京城酒店开房,风流快活时突然不省人事,差点中了马上风。幸亏姣婆经验丰富,抱着林兄不放,又把银针在他肛门附近硬戣,才免得水长流,自此玩完。诗华日报在报导中还把男主角喻为“李小龙第二”。

诗华日报后来更刊登了一篇林家大老婆的访谈,文中含有甚多影射林兄的风流行径,他看了本就大动肝火,再加上傍友的怂恿,一怒之下卖掉诗华股份,辞去董事长的职位,不做“新闻从业员”了。

林兄诸多风流艳迹中,最为人津津乐道者,莫过于他的一套金蝉脱壳之计,话说有一次他告诉大老婆,说要上加帛镇“公干”,去了几天还未回家,黄氏心想老公这么努力做工好难得,别累坏了。就决定去加帛看老公。回家带了一锅鸡汤,天未亮就坐快艇去了,到了加帛店里,把主管叫来,一问之下,原来老公根本没来过!

黄氏回到诗巫总店,百思不得其解。后来还是软硬兼施之下,阿末才和盘托出,原来那天林兄坐了公司捷艇出门,到了公务局码头就下船,车夫用汽车又把他载回市区,直上京城酒店四楼,由那儿坐电梯更上一层楼,风流快活去了。林兄是很努力,不过却是在埋头苦干!

林兄很是狡猾。有一次他叫郭孟峤带一个操台湾口音的中年妇女,说是西马来的保险营业员,因为我“认识的人多”,希望能够带她去走走。大家看是我带来的,多多少少都应酬些少。我一直不知就里,以为只是替朋友做了另一件好事。岂料事过多年,有一天遇见林家大娘,没头没脑被她骂了一顿,说我帮她老公扯皮条!

原来那位“保险营业员”是嫁来大马的台湾妇女,与原来的老公离婚了被林兄搭上,借口卖保险,其实是来诗巫跟林兄幽会。

后来被林兄收藏在柔佛州新山,有一次我替福华银行拍摄三十周年纪念照,在新山分行还见到她在经理办事处等支票簿,而银行职员都叫她林太太。

Twenty years in the press, I learned a lesson; can not believe everything the newspapers said. Of newspapers must be replaced annually publishing permit the industry in order to survive, had to hold a limited freedom of speech to business, in order to ensure that will be able to continue to publish, you have to please the government, “necessary” truth “kill” off.


However, the press have more of the “black hands”, not the government, but the consortium. Our Chinese-controlled consortium, the Chinese businessmen in Malaysia, especially Sarawak, the means of doing business is well-known interest, often in order to achieve the purpose of making money, you can do anything, as long as the money can be hand like other liturgical sense of shame is not important.


Sometimes, they in the process of making money “accidental” did some shady things, afraid that the reporters ferreted out, it is difficult to gain a foothold in the high society, so will try to cover the truth, including bribery, intimidation, various hard and soft means a homogeneous, can keep a skinned like.


I was born a pigheadedness, many of my friends are not considered appropriate when a reporter often not buy it offended a lot of head and face “social cancer”. Over the years, my “rival” I was trying to pry away, including lethal playing in front of my boss, threats and inducements. Successful until earlier this year, this is something, and the other will be detailed.


When a reporter in Sarawak, salaries thin shameful. So, most reporters rely on part-time in order to survive, and I am no exception. The first month of work school attract advertising earn some the “dry cents” subsistence, first client told me playing a trick the Taijiquan most powerful massage hands, let me no ability to Parry.


I still remember the businessman was the name most frequently reported among LIN Qi-oriented, he is chairman of the See Hua Daily News, was also famous Riverside Spring, East, I’m just going to “cheat eat”, the first thought the object Nature must go to him.

First offices to Lim, the hearts of wrought, the face of the Lim said his intentions, his first words to ask me there is no pumping owned.

 

I think, if I told him 15 per cent pay any more, he may not want to advertise. So I decided to say a “white lie” denied “dry cents. Businessman after all fritters very him a no money to be made, immediately “comfort”; since there is no commission, then why should the money be handing the newspaper it right? Later you say it making money!

Wow, amazing! After many years, I have earned less than Lin’s money. Until there is a period of time, when the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, Lin Xiong, yet often trouble in the scandal on the occasion, through a third party, to “imply” Lim intends Tao Jiaoqing with me and told me to find him a common friend Guo Meng Qiao Take advertising.

 

I go, followed by years of me a lot of sweetness, until Lin’s wife feel distressed, to advertisers. Mrs. Lin often sits Company, speaks very powerful.

The original Lin Xiong committed Guaren of the disease, usually in addition to the things of the cup also fond of “wine” that thing behind Guo Meng Qiao is executive hips children to father left a tiny Printing Museum, usually no business, I do not know how The climbed Lin Xiong, fraternizing up dinner during the day, night nightclub bubble Taiwanese singer, a left Merry pumping Qiu history.

Lin’s wife Maoruo toad, Lim told a friend, that is by the nurse did Huang Duanzhen taken care of the year in a car accident in the field, in order to repay have married back, not feelings, does not count. Now money has also been the position to see the beautiful Taiwan girl of course Heartbeat 100.

Friends of the Pong Lin Xiong around more and more, because he is willing to pay, and really a lot of scandal. In fact, he has already grown up in Hong Kong has long been a mistress, there are children the big wife was hiding in the drums for many years, until the year Lin Xiong almost heart attack, in order to take care of things shake out.

Aunt just found also an attempt at suicide, but was lucky not die, the Lin Xiong mistress in Hong Kong is said to evening scene quite bleak depression behind, and later, some children into a mental hospital.
The constantly, Lin Xiong Taosexinwen his See Hua Daily News do not think Gordon would go through. Once Lin Xiong with a Taiwan woman to the capital Jiudiankaifang, Merry merry suddenly unconscious almost immediately in the wind.

 

Thanks to the rich experience of Jiao woman, holding Lin Xiong and hold again silver needles near his anus hard lance before lest Flows, and since then comes to an end. See Hua Daily News also reported actor hailed as Bruce Lee “.

See Hua Daily News and later published an interview with the wife of a Lin family, contains much innuendo Lin Xiong Merry act, he saw this on flies into a rage, coupled with the near Friends of the instigation, huff sell Shi Hua shares, resigned from the posts of chairman of the board, not journalists.

Lin Xiong many Merry brilliant track in the most talked about than he withdraw its role of a measure, saying that once he told his wife, said to be on Kapit town “on business” went a few days has not been back to the home, Wong thought her husband so hard workmanship so rare, not tired. Decided to go to see her husband Kapit. Home with a pot of chicken soup, the day is not lit table speedboat to Kapit store, called the charge of a question under the original husband simply never been!

Huang returned to the the Sibu headquarters, baffled. Later or carrot and stick under Ahmad was a clean breast of the original day Lin Xiong sit company Jie boats go out to the official Bureau pier on disembark, the coachman again he set out by car back to the city, straight on the capital hotel fourth floor, sat elevator the next level, Merry merry. Lin Xiong is very hard, but it is hard at work!

Lin Xiong is very cunning.

 

 

 

 Once he called Guo Meng Qiao middle-aged woman with an operation in Taiwan accent, said Simma insurance salesperson, because I know many people “want to be able to take her to walk. I brought more or less entertaining existing. I have been unknowingly, thought it was just another good thing to do for a friend. Unexpectedly, the things over the years, and one day met the aunt of the Lin family, unthinking scolded by her meal, that I helped her husband pimp!

The original man “insurance salesperson is married to Malaysian women, divorce Lin Xiong catch the original husband, an excuse to sell insurance, in fact, is to Sibu with Lin Xiong tryst.

Later Lin Xiong collection in Johor Bahru, once my 30th anniversary photo shoot behalf Fuhua Bank branches in Johor Bahru to see her checkbook manager offices, bank staff called her Mrs. Lin.

七十年代初期,我刚进入新闻界,一位前辈钟茂麟曾经以“骗吃”谑称记者。他说做这个行业就像苦哈哈,整天为三餐奔跑“骗一口饭吃”,一语道破个中苦乐。

他说,当有人要用到记者之际,它们总会千方百计讨好记者,出尽法宝让记者快乐,那时候的记者就有快乐似神仙的感觉。

或者,当时有钱有地位的人干了坏事被记者抓住把柄,怕得不得了,要跟记者“讲数”,这是刻的记者就像老虎那么凶!

可是,当记者要发恶之际,却遇到一个更恶更凶的对手,他不但可以在你的老板面前用恶势力把你压得透不过气来,一个不妙很可能还会带几个打手把你揍一顿,那时,做记者的只有像狗儿那么可怜了。

这本书的书名,其实就是记者的代号。

往后所记所述,就是我二十二年记者生涯里的见闻,我不想偏袒朋友,也不刻意丑化敌人,纯粹是要尽一点新闻工作者的本分,把那些报章不敢刊载的事实记载下来,以对历史的见证作个交代。

《神仙•老虎•狗》序

礼、义、治人之大法;廉、耻、立人之大节。
蓋不廉则无所不取,不耻则无所不为。
人而如此,则祸败乱亡,亦无所不至。
人不可以无耻,无耻之耻,无耻矣。

“廉耻”乃为人之重要条件,居于社会领导地位之知识份子,尤应知耻。篇首几句乃采录自顾炎武之文章;作者眼看明室诸臣纷纷投降满清,只图当前功名富贵,不惜千秋名节,实由于不知耻之所致,心有所感,乃写出本编沉痛之文章,指出“廉耻”之重要,奉劝士大夫须“知耻”。

“神仙老虎狗”这本书甚多情节将是围绕着“廉耻”两个字,道出我华族群中人如何把“礼仪”抛弃,把廉耻丢开,而一味往钱堆里头躜的丑陋的一面。

我生长于道德沉沦,纳妾风盛之动乱时代,大家都以三妻四妾为荣,有钱人好色,尚可理解;邻家一个流动小贩,家中大小七八口三餐不继,却也去学人家养个小老婆,真是天下之大,无奇不有。读书人读了几年圣贤书,对风流涵义一知半解,尚以为下流就是风流的另一种写法;一些行将就木的“社会名流”在师爷劝说之下,只道老尚风流是寿症。女孩子家听信江湖看命佬谗言,认为只有嫁给有钱人作阿二才有“钱”途,一个没有受过几年教育的女记者一心以为嫁对了人,跟着一个小流氓出身的“有钱人”作第五六房小妾,却不想衰婆遇着空心老倌,不但把“老公”累垮,也断送了自己的前途。

作书人不想自命清高,但是放眼看去,能够处乱世而不改其操守之君子难找啦。

松柏后凋零于岁寒,鸡鸣不己于风雨

谨以此句献于那些尚有一念之贞的君子共勉之

Or was the money and rank did a bad thing by reporters to grasp the handle, scared incredible, keep reporters talk about the number of “carved reporters like Tiger fierceness!

各位朋友,网上首次出现神仙老虎狗这本禁书原文,这是处女首航,为了尊重已故原作者刘世久先生将不会修改或添加,把原汁原味的书呈现给大家。文章将会以每天流出一篇的方式,直至整本书完毕。故事中对人性贪婪地追逐名利金钱地位毫不保留的揭发,社会名流地方闻人国阵朋党的勾结一一呈现在各位的眼前。谢谢!
——————————————————————————–

《神仙•老虎•狗》作者生平简介

禁书《神仙•老虎•狗》揭发诗巫名人的丑闻秘辛,在其笔下的诗巫名人(当然都是有钱人)都是表面风光,一幅慈善家面貌,私生活却都不道德的一面。这其中真真假假不是外人所能掌握,不过无风不起浪,可能有某些事实的成份。作者因为书内文章被泄露并复印流传,结果为免是非而自我流亡海外。

作者是资深名记者刘世久,大家都称他为SK.那是他的英文名缩写。他也以Oscar Lau来做为与朋友的交往。 SK Lau刘世久,是诗巫教育界前辈刘贤任的长子。早年在下游丹章公集的中正学校受教育,老爸就是校长.中学则在公教中学受教。他受过中英教育,也曾负笈台湾,因此中英文都很棒。

离开学校后,他曾在当年诗巫邮政局二楼的“电讯部”工作。那个时期,人们与外地连系,都需要打电报,以英文字母数目,来计算费用。这就是“电讯部”的工作之一。他在“电讯部”工作之时,即开始投稿给在汶莱出版的英文「婆罗洲纪事报」(Borneo Bulletin)。每次领到稿费时,他便会很识趣的买一些食品回公司招待大家。

及后他在英文「砂拉越论坛报」(Sarawak Tribune)出任记者兼诗巫的广告招徕员。那个时期,他的收入最丰,本地记者没有一个可以望其项背。最风光时期,他可以每个月到新加坡”吃风”一趟。不必说那个时候,即使是现在,也没有多少打工一族能够如此轻松的每个月自费出门逍遥自在几天。

关于SK Lau的事迹很多.那年,他为了一本书而出国。出走前夕,深夜九点多约一名深交者见面,表示次日要离开了。那是1996年9月,也是最后一次与该名知己真人面对面,此后再没有见过面,直至他于2004年在北京离世。

离开诗巫那一天,他大清早乘坐最早班快艇,大约是清晨5点45分,由诗巫前往古晋。在古晋呆上好几天,然后才飞往新加坡。他来来去去新加坡和吉隆坡之间,才飞去美国。在美国西北部一位朋友的家,也住了一两个月,过后便飞到台湾,原本计划要在这个他比较熟悉的环境下生活。不过,后来改变主意,转赴北京,就此定居下来。

在这期间,他也经常会飞回吉隆坡,办点签证或做点事。在北京,他的优越英文水平,就是他的饭碗。他开始为翻译社工作。在这个国际大都会,翻译是一门大生意,许多中国人与外国人做生意,不会英文,极须会英文的人员负责写信,弄合约等等。中国政府也积极将其法律以英文书写,他的公司也曾经获得合约进行法律的翻译。在中国这个华文的世界,居然靠英文吃糊,说来难令人入信,偏偏就是如此。其实也不足为奇,英文是国际语言,国际上做生意,当然是英文最吃香了。

2004年漂泊在北京56岁的刘世久在北京自己租住的房子里悄然离世,直到十余天之后才被朋友发现。刘世久的朋友华先生怀着悲痛的心情向记者讲述了这件蹊跷事。 他和刘世久相识于新加坡,由于共同的摄影爱好使他们成为了很好的朋友。两人每隔两三天都要通一次电话,刘世久几乎每周都要到华先生的工作室做客。

2004年1月16日,我们通过一次电话,当时649(刘世久的外号)说自己改变了去香港过年的计划,要留在北京过年。想不到那竟是我们最后一次通话。”1月18日,华先生起程去江西,出发之前拨打刘世久家里的电话、手机都没人接听。从18日直到27日回到北京,华先生无数次拨打刘世久的手机都无人接听,直到后来手机里传出噪音,最后关机。

大年初七,刘世久的几个朋友来到酒仙桥他租住的房子,发现防盗门没有关,从门缝里可以看到房间里开着灯。附近邻居、居委会都说自从春节以后就没见过这个老人了,几个朋友当即报警。在找到房主之后,警方人员及刘世久的朋友于正月初八进入他的房间。华先生说:“我从客厅里看到649躺在卧室的床上,身上盖着被子,拖鞋放在床边,好像穿着毛衣。他的脸全是黑色的,好像已经腐烂。

据一直与刘世久保持邮件联系的马来西亚朋友说,他们的邮件联系中断于1月16日,而华先生与刘世久最后一次通话也是16日。据此推断,刘世久的遗体被发现时他已经去世十多天了。 华先生说,刘世久很早妻子就去世了,儿子也英年早逝,他来北京之后一直独居。刘世久与朋友们很合得来,出事之前没听说他有什么烦心事。他不抽烟、不喝酒,虽然有时闹牙疼、腿疼,但从未听说有什么致命的疾病。究竟是谋杀、仇杀或有其他原因?最后北京公安也查不出一个结果。刘世久无疾的离世更加让遗留下的这本书《神仙•老虎•狗》更增添了神秘感!

刘世久在北京离世后,家属将其移灵诗巫。

KFC 的历史我懂,70年代第一个将它引进大马市场的是商人吕正义先生。

From KFC is devoured event, the means to suppress the Chinese businessmen to see UMNO cronies!

第一间KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN快餐店,吉隆坡东姑阿都拉曼大街开设本地的第一间店铺。现在还在。记得当年的肯德基家乡鸡,是没有SELF SERVICE这回事的。你进去肯德基快餐店,是有WAITER来写单的。而且当年也不是简称KFC。

吕正义先生当年是炒原产品期货买卖的高手。当年经商环境也不像现在这么限制。当年吕正义先生100%控制肯德基家乡鸡股权。 80年代初期,传说他在炒棕油期货的时候得罪马哈迪,因为老马想通过棕油期货买卖,控制世界原棕油价格。

吕正义却看准契机,趁低买进趁高放,灵活运用手法将期货价格锁死,加上伦敦期货市场有许多更精明干练的玩家;老马想控制原棕油期货市场,却反而大败亏输,亏了国库20多亿!但是吕正义却赚进数以千万计的利润。这造成老马非常震怒和感觉丢脸,于是迁怒吕正义。

也有传说当年老马上台,培养土着朋党,有人看中肯德基这块肥肉。有人利用吕先生炒棕油期货得罪马哈迪的弱点,企图强迫他将肯德基股权出让给马来人。但是吕正义天生傲骨,最讨厌受到无理压迫;最后他选择宁愿退出大马商界,将肯德基股权统统卖给巴生商人林玉静!吕正义先生后来远走美国,90年代初期客死异乡,在美国病故。

林玉静后来当上大马中华总商会会长。原本以为有中华总商会会长和隆雪华人大会堂会长的头衔,巫统朋党至少会有顾忌,不敢动他的主意。谁知巫统朋党玩阴招!

80年代,巫统朋党知道马来人非常喜欢吃肯德基家乡鸡,肯德基的业务发展非常迅速,分店到处开,已经成了大马快餐连锁店第一品牌。巫统朋党利用宗教,向林玉静找碴!他们抨击肯德基家乡鸡不是HALAL的。他们指责肯德基家乡鸡屠宰鸡只的过程不符合HALAL条规,要马来人杯葛肯德基!

当年这件事确实让林玉静很困扰。加上当年老马强势推行新经济政策,不断强迫林老必须让马来人参股。为了申请HALAL准证,林老无法可施,只好忍痛让出部分股权,换取巫统朋党取消呼吁马来人杯葛肯德基的举动。林老自己也没有想到,让出部分股权之后,犹如引狼入室。虽然林老还拥有肯德基的控制性股权,但行政体系渐渐落入马来人手中。

80年代末期,林玉静掌控的隆雪华堂和中华总商会并不平静。当年华商在新经济政策下饱受冲击,对政府的行政举措怨声载道,而华商之间也出现分裂。林玉静受到了以颜清文为首的华商反对派竞争。林玉静让出肯德基家乡鸡股权的事,也造成了一些华商不满,认为他身为商会最高领导人,竟然带头向巫统朋党妥协,这是不对的。

林玉静后来因为华团纷争,加上他的上市公司《富产》在1997金融风暴中严重受创,负债累累,无奈之下将肯德基股权完全脱手给马来商家伊德里斯。从此卸下《鸡王》称号。

于是肯德基家乡鸡正式易主,名称也改为KFC,沿用至今。

Lv Zhengyi has spotted an opportunity to bargain buying to take advantage of high-level, flexible use of the approach to the futures price locked, plus many more shrewd players in the futures market in London; nag want to control the CPO futures market, contrary defeat loss to lose the treasury more than 20 billion deficit! However Lv

 

Zhengyi has earned tens of millions of dollars of profit. This caused the old horse very furious and feel disgrace, so anger Lv Zhengyi.
Legend year old horse came to power, the culture of indigenous youth gangs, some fancy KFC piece of fat.

 

Some people take advantage of the weakness of Mr. Lu fried palm oil futures offend Mahathir, an attempt to force him to KFC equity to sell to the Malaysian. Lv Zhengyi born proud and most hate to be unreasonably oppression;

 

 Finally, he chose to withdraw from the Malaysian business community prefer KFC equity Klang businessman Lin Yujing all sold! Mr. Lv Zhengyi later flee the United States in the early 1990s Kesiyixiang, died of illness in the United States.

The Lin Yujing Later when the the Malaysian Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. Originally thought that the title of president of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce and the Long Snow Chinese Town Hall, and the UMNO cronies have scruples, at least not dare move his idea.

 

Who knows UMNO cronies play underhand!
1980s, UMNO cronies know Malaysian like to eat Kentucky Fried Chicken, KFC business is developing very rapidly, and there were branches, has become the first brand of the fast-food chain in Malaysia. UMNO cronies use of religion to Lin Yujing trouble for! They attacked the Kentucky Fried Chicken is not HALAL.

 

They accused Kentucky Fried Chicken slaughter chickens process does not comply with the the HALAL regulations to Malaysian boycott KFC!

When this thing really Lin Yujing very troubled. Plus year old horse strong implementation of the new economic policy, constantly forced Lin old must be Malaysian shares.

 

To apply for HALAL permit old forest can not be applied, reluctantly forced to give up a portion of the shares in exchange for UMNO cronies cancel called on the Malaysian boycott KFC move.

 

 The forest old had no idea, so that a part of the shares, as if asking for trouble. Old forest also has a controlling stake in KFC, but gradually fall into the hands of the Malaysian administrative system.

The late 1980s, Long Xuehua Tang Lin Yujing control of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce is not calm. When suffering from the impact of the new economic policy, Chinese businessmen the government administrative initiatives complaining, among Chinese businessmen also appears split.

 

The Lin Yujing by Yan Qingwen headed the Chinese businessmen opposition competition.

 

 

The Lin Yujing let out the equity interest in the things of the Kentucky Fried Chicken, also caused some Chinese businessmen dissatisfied that he, as the supreme leader of the Chamber of Commerce, even take the lead to compromise, it is not right to UMNO cronies.

Lin Yujing disputes later because the Chinese group, plus he’s listed companies “rich” serious injuries to the financial turmoil of 1997, heavily in debt, desperation KFC equity completely get rid of to Malay businesses Idris,. Since then remove the “Chicken King” title.

So Kentucky Fried Chicken officially changed hands, the name was changed to KFC, still in use.

Retrospective Malayan Chinese sages struggle back: Chinese democracy go?
FEB 5
Of the voice of justice

大家晚上好,我们又见面了。昨天说到,当英国殖民政府在1946年提出《马来亚同盟》概念的时候,遭到由翁嘉化领导的巫统大力反对。

英国建议的马来亚同盟,是战后英国所制定的一份协议书,以把马来亚各州(不包括新加坡)置于英国的直接统治下。

Good evening everyone, we met again. Speaking yesterday, when the British colonial government in 1946 proposed “Malaya alliance” concept was Wengjia of strong opposition from the leadership of UMNO.
British proposed the Malayan alliance, an agreement developed in post-war Britain, the Malayan states (excluding Singapore) placed under the direct rule of the British.

英国政府决定,一旦政局复元而临时性的军事统治过去后,马来亚同盟将成立,旨在创造一个更有效率的政府组织和促进马来亚不同种族的马来亚人民的团结。但是,马来社会鉴于未顾及各州苏丹地位,和认为不利于马来民族,乃群起反对。在著名的领袖拿督翁的领导下,马来民族统一机构(简称巫统UMNO)成立,以反对马来亚同盟,结果英国让步。

另一方面,华人对于长期在马来亚居留后,将因此获得合法地位及政治权利的条件,却表现得不热衷。这是因为长期以来他们未被英国接受为马来亚人及被视为外来人,他们还是不能确定本身的身份,因此并不重视这个问题。到底从1945年到1948年,华人的政治思潮是如何的呢?我们可以从历史上看到几方面的发展。

首先,有相当多的华人,仍然认为自己是中国人民的一份子,而那些对政治感到兴趣的,仍然十分关注中日战争之前就存在着的中国政治斗争。所谓战前,即廿世纪初期,海外华人分成保皇派和亲孙中山先生的革命派,孙中山先生革命成功后,海外华人都转向支持国民党。

国共分歧华侨分派

1927年以后,接掌国民党大权的蒋介石将枪口对准中国共产党,誓要剿灭中共。于是中共和国民党展开斗争,海外华人便部份的分成两派,一派支持蒋介石领导下的国民党,另一派较倾向毛泽东领导的中共,当然也存在着不涉及政治及中立者。1945年,日本战败投降后,国共两派的对立尤其明显,不但在舆论上,同时在社团中也趋向针锋相对。

换句话说,属于这一类的华人已把注意力集中在中国的政治,更甚于马来亚政治的变化,而这一群华人中,不少是领导份子或中坚份子,他们的活动也受到重视,对华人来说,具有一定的影响。当然,毫无疑义的,不论是倾左或倾右的华人,都一致欢呼日本于1945年8月10日接受波茨坦宣言,无条件投降,最明显的欢庆反映在1945年10月10日(双十节)的国民政府国庆日。

在新加坡,不同的政治思想和不同阶层华人社团,估计450单位参加庆祝,庞大的游行队伍约有8万人。一些华人社会袖及舆论界抓住这个机会,以号召华人大团结。报人胡愈之更建议成立《华侨民主同盟》,胡文虎也响应并认为,海外华人的团结有助排解国共纠纷,同时,代表东南亚华人的陈嘉庚(南洋华侨筹赈总会主席),也受到支持参加中国政治协商会议。

The British Government’s decision, once the political situation to recover and temporary military rule in the past, Malaya alliance will be established, aimed at creating a more efficient government organizations and promote the unity of the Malayan People of different races in Malaya. Malay community view, however, failed to take into account states Sudan, status, and that is not conducive to the ethnic Malay are rallied together to oppose.

 

 The famous leader Datuk Ong Tee under the leadership of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO UMNO), set up to oppose the Malayan alliance results concessions.

On the other hand, the Chinese conditions for long-term in Malaya residence, will therefore obtain legal status and political rights, but not act enthusiastic.

This is because a long time they were not the United Kingdom for the people of Malaya and is regarded as outsiders, they still can not determine their own identity, and therefore does not attach importance to this issue. In the end, from 1945 to 1948, the Chinese political thought about? We can see from the history of the aspects of development.

First of all, there are a considerable number of Chinese still consider themselves part of the Chinese people, and those who are interested in politics are still very concerned about the political struggle exist prior to the Sino-Japanese War.

 

The so-called pre-war, that is the beginning of the twentieth century, overseas Chinese into royalists and pro-revolutionaries of the Sun Yat-sen, Sun Yat-sen after the success of the revolution, the overseas Chinese are turning to support the KMT.

KMT-CPC differences Overseas distribution
Since 1927, took over the the KMT power of Chiang Kai-shek at gunpoint Communist Party of China, vowing to wipe out the Chinese Communists. So the Chinese Communist Party and the Kuomintang fought overseas Chinese will be part of the split into two factions, one faction supporting Chiang Kai-shek, under the leadership of the Kuomintang, the other faction led by Mao Zedong’s Communist China tend, of course, there is apolitical and neutral.

 

After Japan surrendered in 1945, the two factions of the opposition KMT and CPC is particularly evident not only in the public opinion in both the societies also tend to tit-for-tat.

In other words, belonging to the Chinese has focused in China’s political, and even more in Malaya political changes, this group of Chinese, many leading intellectuals or the backbone of their activities has also been importance of the Chinese, has a certain impact.

 

 Of course, there can be no doubt, both tilting left or Chinese dumping right, are unanimous in cheering on August 10, 1945, Japan accepted the Potsdam Declaration, unconditional surrender, the most obvious celebration reflected in the October 10, 1945 (double National Day of ten), the National Government.
Different political ideas and different sectors of Chinese Associations in Singapore, it is estimated that 450 units to participate in the celebration, with a huge parade of about 80,000. Some Chinese social sleeves and opinion to seize this opportunity to call for the great unity of the Chinese. Newspaper people Hu Yuzhi recommended the establishment of the Overseas Chinese Democratic League, Aw Boon Haw response and that the unity of overseas Chinese will help resolve the KMT-CPC disputes, at the same time, on behalf of the Southeast Asian Chinese Tan Kah Kee (Nanyang Chinese Collection Relief Association Chairman), also supported to participate in the Chinese Political Consultative Conference

但是,较后的局面显示,彼此不能合作。陈嘉庚早于1940年就认为国共难合作,态度趋向支持中共。因此,陈嘉庚除了呼吁不同姓氏的宗祠及乡团团结,以统一华文教育作为团结的起点外,并没有参加于1946年2月的新加坡华侨总会的成立大会。《新加坡华侨总会》的发起人包括胡文虎,李光前,陈六使,连瀛洲及林文庆。

与此同时,在吉隆坡召开的94个华团代表大会,也希望胡文虎及陈嘉庚,提出具体的团结计划。不过,在中国方面,国共的合作始终不能达成,尽管海外华人大声疾呼,并赞同中国政治协商会议的《民主化国家,国有化军队》的两大口号,但议案只是一纸空文,不能推行。

一个半月后(1946年3月中旬),国共内战在中国东北爆发,以后就一直打到1949年,国民党退居台湾为止,毛泽东于同年10月1日宣布中华人民共和国成立。

陈嘉庚早在1945年11月就指出,中国内战是不可避免的,因为中共和国民党无法妥协,唯有在战场决定胜负。他认为,与国民党政府谋和是极为困难的。

表面团结昙花一现

马来亚的华人团体,大多数主张和平解决斗争。当时的新加坡中华总商会会长连瀛洲及华文报的一般言论也多有此倾向。 《南洋商报》说,通过政治解决可以赢取大多数人民的支持,反之准备战争者最终将被人民唾弃。

但是,当国共内战于1946年不可避免爆发时,马来亚的华人又明显的分成两个斗争集团。战后初期左右派的团结局面只是昙花一现,没有产生任何效果,从1946年到1948年期间,华人社团支持国民党的比较多。

例如:雪兰莪中华大会堂在董事会紧急会议上,议决代表92个华人社团通电蒋介石,表示支持国民政府力促苏联退兵东北。在槟城,逾百间社团也作出相同的议决,接着马六甲、彭亨、森美兰及霹雳的华人团体尽皆响应。苏联军队于1946年4月6日起逐渐撤出东北,留下真空成为国共激烈争夺的场所。战争升级底下,马来亚华人社团中出现呼吁停战的要求,包括倾左的团体在内。

促成华人社团激烈争执的,是陈嘉庚于1946年9月7日,以南洋华侨筹赈总会主席名义,拍电美国总统杜鲁门、参众议院议长、马绍尔将军及司徒雷登博士(他们曾经协助调解国共斗争),对国民党政府展开攻击,指其无能和独裁,要求美国从中国撤军,停止军援国民政府。

这一来,触发了一场华人社会的大论战。 《中国报》,《南洋商报》及《星洲日报》等发表社论指责陈嘉庚《滥用名义》,并建议结束《南侨总会》,因为这个总会是在抗日战争时为援助伤兵及难民而设,现已过时。另一方面,反国民党的华文报则支持陈嘉庚,如《新加坡民主周刊》。

不单是这样,华人团体分成两个对立阵营,一方面是以商人为主的华团,主张讨伐陈嘉庚的立场。如吉打、柔佛、霹雳的中华总商会,雳霹及雪兰莪中华大会堂及约八十三个华团致电杜鲁门总统及蒋介石,强烈反对陈嘉庚的意见。随后马六甲、文冬、麻坡、森美兰及柔佛的华团介入支持蒋介石。

另一方面是以工人及文娱界为主的团体,则大力支持陈嘉庚的言论。在会馆中,除了新加坡福建会馆支持陈嘉庚外,其他会馆和商团都是反陈嘉庚的。陈本身也承认这一事实的存在。在当时,大部份较大规模的华人社团,如中华总商会,雪兰莪及霹雳中华大会堂、广东会馆、福建会馆及客属公会都反对陈嘉庚。其实,这也是因为大部份有关社团是由国民党份子所控制的。

自此而后,比较积极活动的华人,在政治思想上分庭抗礼,斗争不断升级,演至水火不容,甚至发生流血事件。1946年10月10日在实兆远庆祝双十节时,就爆发两派公开械斗事件,较后波及邦咯岛。不久,情势转向对陈嘉庚有利,1946年12月24日,北京大学一名女学生沈崇指说被两名美国军人凌辱,导致南洋华人情绪沸腾,全马各地妇女团体于1947年1月中在吉隆坡召开会议,议决向美国总统提出抗议。

不久之后,台湾发生严重暴乱,反对台湾省长陈仪的高压政策(他是在日本将台湾归还中国后,即被委为台湾省省长)。即是台湾本省人最悲痛的《二二八事件》。由于40年代陈仪曾任福建省省长,陈嘉庚于参观后认为是情况最恶劣的一省,乃将矛头指向陈仪,马新的华人社团也有响应,这包括福建会馆、南安会馆等。

加上国民政府对学生、报人及智识份子展开镇压,造成新加坡《南侨日报》(陈嘉庚所经营)展开猛烈抨击。陈嘉庚也在174个社团代表大会上,否定国共合作的可能性。接着有更多团体群起响应,尤其是左派团体。

左右两派斗争升级

1947年7月4日,国民党宣布全面对中共作战,再一次掀起马来亚华人中的左右派论争。在马来亚的国民党人,全力支持蒋介石的全国总动员谕令,他们也通过各地的中华总商会采取主动,支持国民政府。左派团体,包括中国民主同盟马来亚支会则加紧支持陈嘉庚,以进行反击。

1947年10月27日,中国国民党政府宣布中国民主同盟为非法组织,引致马来亚左派团体的抗议,而对蒋介石的政府进行更猛烈的攻击。 《南侨日报》的社论扮演着重要的角色。但马来亚亲国民党份子欢迎国民政府的宣布。

1948年3月29日,蒋介石在退守中偏安南京,但重新被选为总统,这再进一步刺激国民党份子展开活动,他们争取诸多华人社团支持,在雪兰莪中华大会堂的号召下,欢迎蒋介石的当选。除了在吉隆坡外,怡保、槟城、马六甲、柔佛、新山及其他城市的华人团体,也分别庆祝。

此举进一步的激怒左派团体,1948年5月4日,新加坡华人争取中国和平与民主同盟、中华民主同盟支会、华人职工会与新民主青年团等,在船员俱乐部召开华团大会,有119个社团超逾500名代表与席,指责当时的当政者背叛孙中山的三民主义,并宣称总统选举是非法的。两派间的不妥协和无止息的斗争,引起了英国政府的关注,不允许两派过于明显地在马来亚展开政治活动。

英殖民地政府的态度先是偏向国民党,因此造成与左派团体关系恶化,以至于中国民主同盟马来亚的支会,也在1949年5月被禁止,直到中共于1949年10月1日正式取得中国的政权后的翌年,英国加以承认,局面因而转向对国民党不利。

可以这么说,直到1948年杪前,马来亚亲国民党份子在政治斗争中仍占上风,一些主要团体如中华总商会、华人大会堂及大部份会馆多忠于国民党政府,大多数华文报也有此倾向,但是1949年开始,国民政府在马来亚所获得的支持越来越少,甚至一些国民党人转向支持中共。

综观上述,马来亚的华人,尤其是上层阶级及劳动阶级,都有明显的不同政治倾向,他们大部份的时候是关注中国政治的演变,虽然对本地的政治也有所关心,还是朝向中国政局为多,这是因为富时的华人政治意识,多以中国作为其关注的对象。

专业人士组民主党

However, compared to the situation after the show, not co-operate with each other. Tan Kah Kee difficult to believe that the KMT-CPC cooperation, the attitude tends to support the Communists in 1940. Addition to calling the different surnames ancestral hall and township group solidarity, Tan Kah Kee, unified Chinese education as a starting point for unity and not to participate in Singapore in February 1946 the inaugural meeting of the Overseas Chinese Association. The promoters of the Singapore Overseas Chinese Association “Aw Boon Haw, Lee Kong Chian Chen Sye, Lien Ying Chow and Lim Boon Keng.
At the same time, 94 Chinese Mission Congress held in Kuala Lumpur, hope Aw Boon Haw and Tan Kah Kee, proposed a specific plan of unity. However, in the case of China, the KMT-CPC cooperation can never be reached, to speak out on behalf of the overseas Chinese and the Chinese Political Consultative Conference and endorsed the slogan “democratization of the country, the nationalization of the army two, but the motion only on paper, could not be implemented.
A half months later (mid-March 1946), the Chinese civil war broke out in northeast China, after it has been hit in 1949, the KMT retreated to Taiwan, Mao Zedong declared the founding of the People’s Republic of China on October 1 of the same year.
Tan Kah Kee as early as November 1945, pointed out that China’s civil war is inevitable, because the Chinese Communist Party and the Kuomintang can not compromise, the only way to decide the outcome on the battlefield. He believes that, with the the KMT government seeking and is extremely difficult.
Surface unity short-lived
The Malaya Chinese community, the majority favored a peaceful settlement to the struggle. General remarks of the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce president Lien Ying Chow Chinese newspaper also many have this tendency. Nanyang Siang Pau said, can win the support of the majority of the people through a political settlement, contrary to prepare the war will eventually be deserted by the people.
However, when the inevitable outbreak of the Chinese Civil War in 1946, the Chinese in Malaya divided into two struggles Group. The unity faction about the early postwar period is just a flash in the pan, and did not have any effect, during the period from 1946 to 1948, the Chinese associations support the KMT more.
For example: Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall, in an emergency meeting of the Board of Directors, resolved on behalf of 92 Chinese associations energized Chiang Kai-shek, expressed support for the National Government urged the Soviet Union to retreat northeast. Over 100 rooms Societies also make the same RESOLVED in Penang, Malacca, Pahang, Negri Sembilan and Perak Chinese community then depart response. Soviet troops gradually withdraw from the northeast on April 6, 1946, leaving a vacuum between the KMT and the CCP fierce competition for the spaces. The escalation of the war under the Malayan Chinese Associations called for a truce requirements, including tilting left groups.
Led to the Chinese Associations fierce dispute the Tan Kah Kee on September 7, 1946, the Overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia Collection Relief on behalf of the Chairman of the Federation, shoot electric U.S. President Harry Truman, reference the Speaker of the House of Representatives, General Marshall and Dr. Stuart (they used to help mediate the country struggle) of KMT government attack, refers to its incompetence and dictatorial, demanding that the U.S. withdraw its troops from China, stop military aid to the National Government.
This way, triggered a great debate of the Chinese community. “China Daily, Nanyang Siang Pau and Sin Chew Daily” published an editorial accused Tan Kah Kee “abuse of the name of”, and suggested that the end of Namchow always “, because this will always aid wounded soldiers in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and refugee, is now obsolete. Anti-KMT Chinese newspaper, on the other hand, the support of Tan Kah Kee, the Singapore democracy Weekly.
Not only so, the Chinese community is divided into two opposing camps, on the one hand, a businessman based Chinese group advocated a crusade against the stance of Tan Kah Kee. Kedah, Johor, Perak Chinese Chamber of Commerce the Gimli Perak and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall and about eighty-three of Chinese group call President Truman and Chiang Kai-shek, is strongly opposed to the views of Tan Kah Kee. Followed by the Malacca, the Bentong, Muar, Negeri Sembilan and Johor Chinese group to intervene to support the Chiang Kai-shek.
On the other hand is based on workers and civic community based groups, strongly supported the remarks of Tan Kah Kee. In the clubhouse, in addition to the Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan support of Tan Kah Kee Hall and the business group are anti-Kah Kee. Chen also admitted the existence of the fact. At the time, most of the large-scale Chinese associations, such as the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, Selangor and Perak Chinese Assembly Hall, Hall of Guangdong, Fujian Hall and Hakka Association are opposed to the Tan Kah Kee. In fact, this is also because the majority of the organizations concerned by the elements of the KMT controlled.
Since then, the active Chinese rival political ideology, the escalating struggle speech to fire and ice, and even bloodshed. October 10, 1946 in Sitiawan celebrate the Double Ten Day, on the outbreak of the two factions public fight with weapons incident, and later spread to Pangkor Island. Soon, the situation turning of Tan Kah Kee, December 24, 1946, Peking University, a female student Shen Chong said two U.S. soldiers abuse, leading the Nanyang Chinese sentiment boiling throughout Malaysia women’s groups in mid-January 1947 Kuala Lumpur meeting, resolved to protest to the President of the United States.
Soon after, serious riots against Taiwan governor Chen Yi’s high-handed policy (he is in Japan after Taiwan was returned to China, he incurs appointed as governor of Taiwan Province). That is, the the Taiwan natives most grieving the “incident”. Since the 1940s, Chen Yi former governor of Fujian Province, Tan Kah Kee visit that is the worst Province, is directed against Chen Yi, Ma Chinese Associations response, including Fujian Hall, Southampton Hall.
Plus the National Government of the student newspaper and intellectual elements repression caused Singapore Namchow Daily “(Tan Kah Kee operated) fierce criticism. Tan Kah Kee also the 174 societies Congress to deny the possibility of the KMT-CPC cooperation. Then there are more groups rallied together to respond to, especially leftist groups.
Left and right factions struggle to upgrade
July 4, 1947, the KMT announced an across-the CCP combat, once again set off a the Malayan Chinese around the Debate. In the the Malayan KMT full support of Chiang Kai-shek’s National Story decree, they also all over the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce initiative to support the National Government. Leftist groups, including the China Democratic League Malaya Ward stepped up to support the Tan Kah Kee, to counterattack.
October 27, 1947, the Chinese Nationalist government announced that the China Democratic League, as an illegal organization, resulting in Malaya leftist groups protest violent attacks on the government of Chiang Kai-shek. Namchow Daily editorial plays an important role. Malaya pro-KMT activists welcomed the announcement of the National Government.
March 29, 1948, in Chiang Kai-shek retreated to sacrifice the long Nanjing, but re-elected President, further stimulate the KMT activists conducted its activities, they fight for many Chinese associations support to the call of the Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall, welcomed the election of Chiang Kai-shek . Except in Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh, Penang, Malacca, Johor, Johor Bahru and other cities in the Chinese community, were also celebrating.
This further angered leftist groups, May 4, 1948, the Singapore Chinese fight for peace and Democratic League, China Democratic League clubs, the Chinese trade unions and the New Democratic Youth, the crew club convened Chinese Mission Conference, 119 societies were in excess of 500 delegates and seats, accusing those in power at the time betrayed Sun Yat-sen’s Three Principles of the People, and declared that the presidential election is illegal. Factions struggle between compromise and no unruly, attracted the attention of the British Government, does not allow factions too obvious political activities commenced in Malaya.
The attitude of the British colonial government first bias Kuomintang, therefore resulting in the deterioration of relations with the leftist groups that ward of the China Democratic League of Malaya also banned in May 1949 until the Chinese Communist Party officially acquired on October 1, 1949 The following year, the British regime to be recognized, thus steering the KMT adverse situation.
So to speak, until 1948 seconds, Malaya pro-KMT elements still prevail in the political struggle, some of the major organizations such as the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, the Chinese Town Hall and the Hall of the majority of more loyal to the KMT government, most Chinese newspaper also This tendency, but in 1949, the support of the National Government in Malaya less and less, and even some Nationalists turned to support the Communists.
Looking at the above, the Chinese in Malaya, especially the upper class and the working class, has noticeably different political tendencies, their most concerned about China’s political evolution, local politics have also been concerned about, or toward China councils more, this is because the rich Chinese political awareness, and more as the object of their attention to China.
Group of Democratic Party of professionals

二战结束后,马来亚华人对当地的政治动态基本上是不明朗的。英国当局重新统治马来亚后,即解散抗日武装部队,以防后患,随着英政府对职工会进行严密管制,双方的关系日呈紧张。1948年6月,马共发动武装叛变,马来亚因此宣布进入紧急状态。紧急法令是7月15日生效,直到7月23日,马共及其附属团体被宣布为非法组织。

另一方面,战后初期的马来亚人民,不论力量多寡,都可以组成一个政治团体,展开政治斗争。马来民族主义份子的醒觉和巫统力量的加强是其中一个发展。那些具有左倾思想的专业人士或半专业人士,组成了非共的左派政党,这些人以非马来人占多数,他们包括律师、医生及教师和受过高等教育的知识份子。而明显的,他们之中多数是受英文教育者,包括了华人、印度人及欧亚混籍人。

这个政党命名为马来亚民主同盟(MALAYAN DEMOCRATIC UNION)简称MUD,党主席是菲立何亚琳(PHILIP HOALIM),最活跃和具有代表性人物是欧亚混籍律师约翰伊伯(JOHN EBER)。他在日治时期曾被拘留过,战后积极活动,公开抨击英国施政,以致英国当局对这个政党存有质疑态度,但仍然允许公务员参加。

由于英校教师参加者众,马来亚民主同盟遂主张实施统一的教育制度。在小学阶段,使用母语教育,而到了中学阶段,全部使用英语作为教学媒介,但马来文定为必修科,这种建议是要使马来亚的教育走向西方化。

马来亚民主同盟于1945年12月提出的政纲包括:

(一)成立一个自治的马来亚政府,参加英联邦。
(二)立法议员全部民选。
(三)凡满21岁的马来亚公民,不论种族、性别、宗教或财富,皆可参加投票。
(四)个人言论出版及集会获得完全的自由。
(五)基本的,中学的及技术教育的革新。
(六)推行社会安全计划,包括医药免费。
(七)改善人民的生活。
(八)马来亚人民的就业机会均等,消除任何的肤色限制。

马来亚民主同盟的成立是从英国工党,尤其是从工党左派份子中吸取政治灵感的。当时英工党在英国当政,使到马来亚的英殖民政府很感为难。民主党模仿英国工党的政策,要求平等权利及允许职工会积极参加政治。它看来已视本身是马来亚的未来(工党)。虽然马来亚民主同盟明显的不是一个共党组织,但它的左派姿态成为共党”统一阵线”渗透的目标。

民主同盟失败因素

After the end of World War II, the Malayan Chinese local political dynamics basically uncertain. British authorities re-ruled Malaya, that after the dissolution of the anti-Japanese armed forces, and to prevent future trouble with the British government to maintain tight control of trade unions, the ties between the two sides was nervous. In June 1948, Ma launched an armed rebellion, Malaya therefore declare an emergency. The emergency decree entered into force on July 15, until July 23, Malaysian, and its subsidiary bodies was declared an illegal organization.
On the other hand, the early post-war period, the Malayan People, regardless of the power of the amount, can form a political group, a political struggle. The strengthening of the elements in the wake of Malay nationalism and UMNO forces is one of development. Leftist ideology professionals or semi-professionals, composed of non-Communist left-wing political parties, these people are the majority of non-Malays, including lawyers, doctors and teachers, and highly educated intellectuals. Obvious among them the majority of the English-educated, including the Chinese, Indian and Eurasian mixed nationals.
This party named the Malayan Democratic Alliance (MALAYAN DEMOCRATIC UNION) referred to as the MUD Party Chairman Phillip He Yalin (PHILIP HOALIM), is the most active and representative figures the Eurasia mixed nationality the lawyer John Yibe (JOHN EBER). He has been detained during the Japanese occupation, postwar active, openly critical of the British policy, there is a questioning attitude that the British authorities on the political parties, but still allow civil servants to participate.
British school teachers participated in by many people, the Malayan Democratic Alliance then advocated the implementation of a unified education system. At the primary stage, the use of mother tongue education, and to the secondary level, all use English as the medium of instruction, but Malay Wending as a compulsory subject, this proposal is to make education in Malaya toward Westernization.
The Malayan Democratic Alliance’s platform in December 1945 include:
(A) the establishment of an autonomous Malayan government to participate in the Commonwealth.
(B) all elected legislators.
(C) Where the 21-year-old Malayan citizens, regardless of race, gender, religion or wealth, can vote.
(D) personal speech, publication and assembly completely free.
(E) the basic, secondary and technical education innovation.
(F) the implementation of social security schemes, including medicine free.
(G) to improve the lives of the people.
(Viii) the Malayan People of the Equal Employment Opportunity eliminate any color restrictions.
The establishment of the Democratic League of Malaya from the British Labour Party, in particular, is drawn from the Labour leftists political inspiration. British Labour Party was in power in the United Kingdom, so that the British colonial government in Malaya is a sense of things difficult. Democratic Party imitate the policy of the British Labour Party, to demand equal rights and to allow trade unions to actively participate in politics. It seems that sees itself as the future of Malaya (Labour Party). Although obvious Malayan Democratic Alliance of party organizations, but not a leftist attitude became the target of communist penetration of the “united front”.
Democratic League failure factors

马来亚民主同盟为证明它并不是一个种族性政党,邀请各政治集团于12月7日在新加坡的总部举行会议,以便对马来亚的未来宪法作出联合建议,有11个单位出席参加。

他们成立了泛马联合行动理事会(ALL-MALAYA COUNCIL OF JOINT ACTION /AMCJA)。三个急进的马来民族主义团体起先加入这个组织,不久之后却退出,另组阵线以反对巫统所支持的马来亚联合邦协定。

所谓马来亚联合邦协定,就是在1946年英国提出马来亚同盟草案被巫统大力反对之后,英国与巫统和各州苏丹谈商结果,同意以马来亚联合邦协定取代。这样一来,泛马联合行动理事会便成为非马来人的政治团体。

马来亚民主同盟的失败,是有几个因素造成的:

(一)英国不承认它是代表马来亚(包括新加坡)人民的唯一政党,也不同意把新加坡,包括在马来亚联合邦协定内,而是坚持与巫统及各州苏丹谈商,到近尾声时,同意成立工作委员会来聆听非马来人社会的意见,泛马联合行动理事会的抗议被忽视,乃杯葛提供意见,转而自行草拟一份宪法,建议即刻给马来亚(包括新加坡)独立的地位。

公民权应自动发给那些在马来亚出世,或其父亲已是马来亚公民的妇女。那些在10年内,有8年是居住在马来亚者而年满18岁可以成为归化公民,但此举不被英国重视和接受。

(二)虽然在反对马来亚联合邦协定上,这个理事会是一致的,但不同思想意识的集团却相互矛盾而导致分裂。例如对于所得税法令,马来亚民主同盟支持,但中华总商会表示强烈的反对。

(三)1948年,马共突然发动叛乱,马来亚民主同盟的西方化左派人士不能适应,对暴力感到厌恶。这样一来,泛马联合行动理事会已不能发生作用,加上较早时急进的马来民族主义份子的退出和巫统的不认同,它已经不能再声称是代表全岛各族人民的政党了。(题外话,这种情形和目前的马华非常相似。马华不断号称代表大马华人,可是大马华人普遍上并不认同。)

到了1948年6月25日,马来亚民主同盟党基于《公民权利被剥夺及混乱的政治情势》为理由,宣布它不能再有任何作用。以马来亚民主同盟党作为核心的泛马联合行动理事会的失败,标志着华人政治上的分歧。

虽然有一度马六甲的中华总商会会长敦陈祯禄及各州中华总商会加入理事会的努力,并且曾经于1947年10月20日号召罢市一天,以抗议马来亚联合邦协定的提出。不过,它最后还是无法成功取得代表马来亚华社的地位,而迅速在政坛上消失。但不久之后,敦陈祯禄转向另一力面发展,导致马华公会的组成。从此改写了马来亚华人政治的局面。

有关马华成立的经过和发展,最后爆发一系列党争;从一个满怀政治理想,政治力量庞大的华裔政党,到今天沦落为巫统的看门狗,应声虫。这些,都会在紧接着要开讲的《马华春秋》中,有详尽的阐述。

Malayan Democratic League to prove it is not a racist political party, invite political groups meeting in the headquarters in Singapore on December 7, in order to make a joint recommendation of Malaya Constitution, there are 11 units attended.
They set up a Joint Action Council FALMAC (ALL-MALAYA COUNCIL OF JOINT ACTION / AMCJA). Three radical Malay nationalist groups initially joined the organization shortly after they quit, another group Front to oppose UMNO supported by the Federation of Malaya Agreement.
The so-called Federation of Malaya Agreement, in 1946 the British Malayan alliance draft UMNO vigorously oppose UMNO and states Sudan on suppliers results agree replaced by the Federation of Malaya Agreement. As a result, the Joint Action Council FALMAC became non-Malaysian political groups.
The failure of the Democratic League of Malaya, is caused by several factors:
(A) The United Kingdom does not recognize that it is the only political party on behalf of the people of Malaya (including Singapore), do not agree with Singapore, including the Federation of Malaya Agreement, but adhere to talk with the UMNO and states Sudan providers to Toward the end, agreed to set up a working committee to listen to the views of the community of non-Malaysian Joint Action Council FALMAC protest was ignored, is the boycott to provide advice in favor of their own drafting a constitution recommends immediate to Malaya (including Singapore) independent status.
Citizenship should be automatically sent to the women who were born in Malaya, or his father have been citizens of Malaya. In 10 years, 8 years and 18 years of age can become naturalized citizens living in Malaya, but this is not the British attention and accept.
(B) against the Federation of Malaya Agreement, the Council is the same, but different ideology Group conflicting result of the split. For example, the Income Tax Act, Malaya democratic Democrats support, but expressed strong opposition from the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce.
(C) 1948, Ma sudden rebellion, the the Malayan Democratic Alliance Western leftists can not adapt, disgusted by the violence. As a result, the Joint Action Council FALMAC not play a role, plus the the earlier radical Malay nationalists exit and UMNO do not agree, it can no longer claim on behalf of the political party of the people of all ethnic groups in the entire island a. (By the way, this situation is very similar to the current MCA MCA constantly claims on behalf of the Malaysian Chinese, but the Malaysian Chinese were generally do not agree.)
June 25, 1948, the Malayan Democratic Alliance Party, on grounds based on civil rights deprivation and chaotic political situation “, announced that it no longer has any effect. The failure of the joint action FALMAC Council, as the core of the Democratic Alliance Party of Malaya marks the Chinese political differences.
Although once Malacca Chinese Chamber of Commerce president Tun Tan Cheng Lock, and state of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce to join the efforts of the Council, and have called for strike day on October 20, 1947, to protest against the Federation of Malaya Agreement proposed. However, it eventually can not be successful in obtaining representative of the status of the Malayan Chinese community, and quickly disappeared in the political arena. But shortly afterwards, Tun Tan Cheng Lock turned to another force surface development, led to the composition of the MCA. From rewriting the the Malayan Chinese political situation.
For MCA was established after the development of the last outbreak of a series of party struggles; reduced to UMNO watchdog, yes-men from a full political ideals, political forces large ethnic Chinese political party, to this day. These are to be followed by lecture “Ma Hua Chunqiu” in detail.
“Retrospective the Malayan Chinese sages struggle”. Write rapidly this point, it has been aired. Thank you for your warm support. We would again! Good night!

“Retrospective Malayan Chinese sages struggle back: postwar Malayan Chinese community torn apart
FEB 3
Of the voice of justice

大家晚上好!今天晚上,继续为大家支持开讲《追溯马来亚华人先贤奋斗史》。

今晚的第三回合,重点将是《中国国民党与中国共产党的内战,对海外华人社会思想带来的巨大冲击》。昨天晚上,我们说到,新马两地华社在20世纪初期,开始纷纷创立工商组织与商会组织。

在这个时期各州成立的中华总商会,虽然是清廷所赞成的,有倾向清廷的思想意识,但对殖民地政府也没有坏处,因此先后被允许成立起来,这类组织容纳各帮派代表,而在促进谅解及团结方面,有了多少的帮助。

成立最早的是槟城中华总商会(1903年),继之为关丹中华商会(1903年),雪兰莪中华总商会成立于1904年,新加坡中华总商会成立于1906年,以后各州各县都有商会之组织。

和其他地缘性和血缘性组织不同的,是中华总商会是当时越过方言藩篱的最主要的组织。地缘性组织,如广东会馆提倡广东方言,韩江公会与潮州会馆倡议潮州方言,客家公会使用的是客家方言,福建公会当然就是以福建方言为主。血缘性质的组织,如林氏宗祠,陈氏书院,辛柯蔡乡亲会,颜氏公会等等,则以本性宗族的语言为标准。

中华总商会的设立,打破了方言的隔阂,统一使用华文华语;对于团结华社各帮各派,起到了很大的作用。固然于1911年后,华人社会基本上还是保持帮派林立的现象,但辛亥革命运动,无疑已吹起了团结之风。这是至为重要的第一步,否则不会有今日的成果。

最重要的,是革命思潮带来了新的思想,冲击了旧社会和旧传统。 《利他主义》,《舍己为群》,《平等自由》的观念不断传开。女子学校受鼓励设立,女人允许加入社会活动,也参加孙中山革命。平等主义:男女平等及不分年龄,和爱国主义:利他主义及舍己为群,成为改变海外华人社会的主要思想力量。

南洋华社掀起思想改革浪潮

孙中山革命成功后,便将同盟会与另四个团体合并,1912年8月13日成立中国国民党。这个政党较后在马来亚获允许成立支部。由于英国当局认为国民党并非与英殖民政府对抗,因此不反对国民党在新马两地公开运作。 1912年12月18日,新加坡成立了中国国民党星洲联络支部。1923年,这个支部8个重要职员中,有七个为英籍侨生,包括一位早期抨击孙中山革命活动的林文庆博士。

国民党在马来亚继续合法活动,直到1925年其注册被吊消,理由是未根据社团法令提供所需的资料。虽然如此,国民党的活动未停止,而是继续秘密地存在。

 

Good evening, everyone! Tonight, we continue to support the lecture “retrospective the Malayan Chinese sages of the past history of struggle.

 

Tonight’s third round, the focus will be on the Chinese Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China’s civil war, the huge impact overseas Chinese social ideology. Last night, we said, Singapore and Malaysia, the Chinese community in the early 20th century, begun the creation of business organizations and trade associations.
 States established during this period of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, the Qing court the favor of the tendency Manchu ideology does not hurt, but the colonial government, has been allowed to set up such organizations to accommodate various gangs represent, and how much help to promote understanding and unity.
The oldest is the Penang Chinese Chamber of Commerce (1903), followed by Selangor Chinese Chamber of Commerce was established in 1904 as the the Kuantan Chinese Chamber of Commerce (1903), the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce was established in 1906, after state counties have Chamber of Commerce of the organization.
And other geopolitical and tribal organizations, is the most important organization of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, then crossed the dialect barriers. Geopolitical organization, such as Canton Center promotes the dialect of Guangdong Hanjiang Gong will Chiu Chow Association initiative Chaozhou dialect the Hakka Association Hakka dialect, Fujian Association of course, is mainly in Fujian dialect. Kinship nature of the organization, such as Lin Ancestral Hall, Chen Clan Academy, Xinke the Cai folks will, Yan’s Association, by the nature of the clan’s language as a standard.
The establishment of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, to break the barriers of dialect, unified Chinese Chinese; gang factions for unity of the Chinese community has played a big role. Of course, after 1911, the Chinese community is basically to keep gangs everywhere, but Revolution movement undoubtedly has blown the unity of the wind. This is to an important first step, otherwise they would not have today’s results.
The most important is the The revolutionary thoughts brought new ideas, and the impact of the old society and old traditions. “Altruism,” gave himself for the group, the concept of “equal freedom” continue to spread. Girls’ schools be encouraged to set up, a woman is allowed to join social activities, and also to participate in the Sun Yat-sen revolution. Egalitarianism: equality of the sexes and regardless of age, and patriotism: altruism and gave himself for the group, change the strength of the main ideas of the overseas Chinese community.
The Nanyang Chinese community set off a wave of thought reform
After the success of the revolutionary Sun Yat-sen, put United League merged with the other four groups, established on August 13, 1912, the Chinese Nationalist Party. Later this party is permitted to set up branch in Malaya. British authorities believe that the KMT is not against the British colonial government, the opposition Kuomintang operate openly in Singapore and Malaysia. December 18, 1912, Singapore set up a the Sin Chew contact branch of the Chinese Kuomintang. In 1923, 8 of this branch staff, seven for British overseas Chinese students, including an early attack Dr. Lin Wenqing Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary activities.
KMT in Malaya to continue the legitimate activities of its registered until 1925 been disqualified on the grounds that the required information is not provided under the Societies Act. Nevertheless, the KMT’s activities did not stop, but continued to exist in secret.

另一方面,袁世凯在辛亥革命成功后,抓住北方军权,又掌握尚未全面灭亡的清廷大权,孙中山为顾全大局,只要实行共和,即可退位,以致1913年袁世凯篡夺大权,就任大总统,旋后又想复辟帝制,于翌年下令解散中国国民党。

在日本和外来势力的支持下,袁世凯逐步地趋向做皇帝的美梦,当然他是在丧失主权下,换取日本的支持。原想准备于1916年登基为《中华帝国皇帝》,没料到各地军政反叛,在气怒之下,这个被万民所咒的大野心家,终于1916年6月6日死了。

际此时期,中国已陷入军阀割据局面,孙中山眼见革命果实行将化为泡影,又起而讨伐,于1924年,在广州成立南方政府,加强海外华人的联系,以寻求支持结束中国的分裂局面。

翌年,孙中山先生不幸病逝,统一中国的大业未能完成。这期间的中国,处在四分五裂的状态中,外国势力因此有机可乘。

The other hand, in the success of the Revolution, Yuan Shikai seize the northern military power, but also master the demise of the Qing government power are not yet fully, Sun Yat-sen for the overall situation, as long as a republican, to abdicate, so that Yuan Shikai usurp power in 1913, assuming the presidency.supination want the restoration of the monarchy, and ordered the dissolution of the Chinese Nationalist Party in the following year.
The support of the Japanese and foreign forces, Yuan Shikai gradually tend to do the emperor’s dream, of course, he is in the loss of sovereignty in exchange for the support of the Japan. Originally wanted to prepare the Chinese Emperor accession to the throne in 1916, did not expect over the military and political rebellion, anger under air, The Curse of the people careerist, and finally died on June 6, 1916 a.
Occasion of this period, China has been plunged into warlordism situation, Sun Yat-sen seeing the fruits of the revolution about to naught, erection and crusade, was established in 1924 in Guangzhou, the southern government to strengthen the ties of overseas Chinese to seek support for the end of China’s separatist situation.
The following year, Dr. Sun Yat-sen died, unfortunately, unified China’s great cause of failure to complete. This period, China, in fragmented state foreign forces therefore take advantage of the.

1927年,蒋介石取得国民党的控制权,从此就和1921年成立的中国共产党展开了长时期的斗争。话说回来,在1919年5月4日,当时中国爆发一场具有深远影响的文化运动,大大地改变了华人的思想。那就是历史上有名的《五四运动》。

五四运动发生在第一次世界大战后,是在中国最脆弱和最危难的关头下,掀起的新思想运动,向封建制度和旧礼教展开无情的揭露和抨击,从而唤起人们的政治意识。为了达到这个目的,白话文被提倡,新文学运动也应运而生了。同样的,马来亚的华人社会也起了变化。马华新文学思想,是接受了中国五四文化运动的影响,具有反帝反封建的精神,在马新地区,包括沙巴和砂拉越发展起来的华文白话文学。

1919年10月初,新加坡新国民日报创刊,其副刊《新国民杂志》及另一些版位如《时评栏》、《新闻版》等,出现了一定数量、具有新思想新精神的白话文章,这是马华新文学史的开端。

In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek made ​​KMT control over ever since and established in 1921, the Chinese Communist Party launched a prolonged struggle. Having said that, May 4, 1919, when the outbreak of a far-reaching impact on the cultural movement to change the thinking of the Chinese. That is the history of the famous “May Fourth Movement

毫无争议的,五四运动对马来亚华人思潮的启迪具有很大的作用,马新华文报刊杂志的蓬勃出现,话剧运动的推广,对整个华社的思想,起了一种革命性的变化。

特别是对知识份子而言,思潮的激荡加速了他们对政治的热心和更加关心华人社会的问题及切身的利益,文化和教育的兴盛自不在话下。在新文学运动浪潮鼓动之下,陈嘉庚于1923年创办《南洋商报》,胡文虎胡文豹兄弟的《星洲日报》于1929年创刊,《现代日报》创刊于1936年,《星槟日报》创刊于1939年,就是在新文化运动催促下的产物。

反日本运动成为华社主流

在政治方面,1919年马新华人社会也展开反日运动。五四运动的反日余波,很快就冲击到马新的华族社会,引起了共鸣。工人学生群起骚动、捣毁日货、洗劫日人工厂,秩序大乱。接着槟岛也发生骚乱,吉隆坡亦有小规模的示威运动。

由此看来,马来亚华人的政治思潮除了被灌输倾向中国,以从清廷中拯救出来外,更带有反抗侵略的行动,尤其对日本军国主义的横行更是义愤填膺,继而转入反帝国主义的时代。

这个时候,英国殖民势力也是介入中国的其中一个(香港就是英国的殖民地),因此对马来亚华人政治的醒觉和矛头指向外国侵略者感到不安,于是采取行动取缔。但迄至国民党于1926、27年北阀胜利后,英国政府又改变态度;对新马两地华人的改革思潮采取默许的立场。

Fourth Movement occurred after World War I, is the most vulnerable and the most perilous moment in China, setting off new ideas movement ruthlessly exposed and criticized the feudal system and the old Confucianism expand, so as to arouse the political consciousness of the people. In order to achieve this objective, the vernacular is to promote new literary movement came into being. Similarly, the Chinese community in Malaya also began to change. MCA new literary thinking, is to accept the influence of China’s May Fourth cultural movement, anti-imperialist and anti-feudal spirit, the new areas in Malaysia, including Sabah and Sarawak Chinese vernacular literature developed.
In early October 1919, Singapore’s new national daily newspaper founded and its supplement “the new national magazine, and some version bit like” Commentary bar “,” news “, there has been a certain amount, the vernacular articles with new ideas and new spirit, which the beginning of MCA’s new literary history

There is no dispute that the May Fourth Movement, the inspiration of the Malayan Chinese thought has a big role, Ma Xinhua Wen newspapers and magazines vigorous promotion of the sport of drama, from the thinking of the Chinese community, a revolutionarychanges

Especially the intellectuals thought Agitation accelerated to mention their political zeal and more concerned with the problems of the Chinese community and personal interests, culture and education flourished since. Tan Kah Kee in 1923, under the instigation of the new wave of literary movement founded Nanyang Siang Pau, the brothers Aw Boon Haw Hu Wen leopard “Sin Chew Daily” was founded in 1929, the Modern Daily News was first published in 1936, was first published in The Star Penang Daily in 1939, under the urging of the New Culture Movement product.
Anti-Japanese movement has become the mainstream of the Chinese community
In political terms, the the 1919 Ma Xinhua person society to expand the anti-Japanese movement. The aftermath of the May Fourth Movement, the anti-Japanese, and soon the impact to the the horse new ethnic society, struck a chord. Workers the students rallied unrest, smashed Japanese products, ransacked the Japanese factory, order and chaos. Followed by the Penang Island riots, Kuala Lumpur, also small-scale demonstrations.
Seen in this light, addition to instill tendency to rescue from the Qing court, the the Malayan Chinese political thought with action against aggression, especially the rampage of Japanese militarism indignation, and then transferred to the anti-the era of imperialism.
This time, the British colonial forces are also involved in China’s one (Hong Kong is a British colony), the point of the Malayan Chinese political awakening and spearhead foreign invaders uneasy, so to take action against. But till to the KMT in 1926,27 North valve after the victory, the British government to change its attitude; take acquiesced in the position of the reform of Chinese thought of the two new horse

但是,当年由于华人也受到中国共产党的影响,左倾思想已出现,这可从英国殖民政府搜获反英及反帝国主义的文件得到证实。

1927年,蒋介石的清党和中共的分裂,也波及马新华人社会。左派团体和国民党的斗争时有所闻。但在大局来说,抗日仍然是一个主流,因为日本军国主义者已逐步的占领中国的领土,且企图称霸整个亚洲。

1928年的《三五济南惨案》,1931年的《九一八事变》及翌年《一二八事变》,直到1937年的《七七芦沟桥事变》,在在使到中国和亚洲处在日本军国主义的阴影下,臭名昭著的《大东亚共荣圈》,就是日本帝国主义炮制出来的霸权毒瘤。

这样一来,抗日救亡运动成了马来亚华人的主流思潮,激起了空前的群众运动,1937年的反日运动是由华族巨商陈嘉庚所领导(陈嘉庚是南洋商报创办人),中下层人士热烈反应,其中尤以下层的劳动工人,出钱出力,不惜一切牺牲来完成历史任务。

而文化及教育界人士也口诛笔伐,筹款义捐。连接而来的是大规模的抵制日货。更为重要的是,这次运动突破了马华社会传统的帮派观念,大家同仇敌忾,组织了全马筹赈总会,共策进行。抗战的宣传工具──文学,也出现了一个波澜壮阔的局面。鼓吹救亡,鼓舞士气,惩戒汉奸,抵制日货,筹款赈济伤兵难民,组织华工赴华服务等等,成了许多作品的热门题材。

However, when due to the Chinese by the Chinese Communist Party, the leftist ideology appears, which can be confirmed from the British colonial government seized the anti-British and anti-imperialist file.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek’s clear the party and the Chinese Communist Party’s split, also spread to Ma Xinhua human society. Leftist groups and the Kuomintang struggle from time to time. But in the big picture, the anti-Japanese is still the mainstream the Japanese militarists gradual occupation of the territory of China, and the attempt to dominate the whole of Asia.
1928 “3 by 5 the Jinan Massacre”, “September 18 Incident” in 1931 and the following year the “Incident” until 1937 “July Marco Polo Bridge Incident”, in in so that China and Asia in under the shadow of Japanese militarism, the infamous “Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere” is cooked up by the Japanese imperialist hegemony tumor.
As a result, the anti-Japanese movement has become the mainstream thought of the Malayan Chinese, sparking an unprecedented mass movement, the anti-Japanese movement in 1937 led by the ethnic Chinese business magnates Tan Kah Kee (Tan Kah Kee Nanyang Siang Pau founder), in the lower people enthusiastic reaction, particularly among the lower labor, money and efforts, whatever the cost to complete the historic task.
The culture and the education sector is also vocal opposition, the fundraising Yijuan. Connection from a large-scale boycott of Japanese goods. More importantly, this movement break through the the gang concept of the MCA social tradition, all against the common enemy, organizations throughout Malaysia Collection Relief Association, co-policy conduct. Propaganda tool of resistance the ─ ─ literature, there have been a magnificent situation. Preached salvation, boost morale, discipline traitor boycott of Japanese goods, fundraising Relief wounded refugees, organizations laborers to go to China to service, has become a popular theme in many of the works.

从马新富商陈嘉庚的历史,可以看出他的政治思潮的变化以及在第二次世界大战前,华人思潮的其中一个倾向。当然陈嘉庚并不代表全体华人的思潮,因为土生华侨就和他的思想有一段距离,即使是南来的华人也不尽然与他具有同样的想法。

富商陈嘉庚办报兴学

海外华侨展开反日运动时期,若解读马新富商陈嘉庚的一生历史,几乎可以说明,当时一部份华人的政治思潮演变。王赓武教授把海外华人划分成三个集团:

甲集团,他们主要关心中国政治和中国对外政策;

乙集团,他们主要关心社区政治;

丙集团,他们已进入非华人的权力金字塔,而不管是否由土著、殖民地宗主国或是民族主义者掌权。

陈嘉庚是属于甲集团,但又带有乙集团的影子。他于1890年(17岁)南来新加坡,他的父亲陈纪柏已先在新加坡开基立业。 1910年,他拥有资产45万元。1909年,他认识了孙中山,1910年剪去辫子,加入中国同盟会,断绝与清廷的关系,是为他从政之开始。辛亥革命爆发后,陈嘉庚负责筹款救济闽省同胞及维持治安。 1913年在家乡兴办集美小学;1912年又创办厦门大学。

1928年3月5日,日本军国主义派兵占领济南,惨杀外交官蔡公时及民众,是为历史上的《三五济南惨案》。消息传至新加坡,陈氏召集各界成立山东惨祸筹赈会,汇去130万元,并号召华人反对日本侵略,展开抵制日货运动。他在所创办的《南洋商报》广为宣传。

1931年《九一八事变》,日本帝国主义侵占东北三省,陈嘉庚在新加坡召开侨民大会,通电国际联盟(联合国前身)及美国总统,敦请履行条约,维护世界和平,否则大战即将到来。由于世界经济不景气随之而来。美国陷入经济大萧条,冲击全世界的经济同时笼罩在经济萧条的阴影之下。陈嘉庚的经济蒙受严重损失和打击,终在1934年将陈嘉庚股份有限公司收盘。

1937年,《七七卢沟桥事变》爆发,中国对日本展开全面抗战。 1938年10月10日,陈嘉庚成立南洋华侨筹赈祖国难民总会(简称南侨总会),他出任主席,接着被选为马来亚各区华侨筹赈通讯主任。

From Maxin Fu Tan Kah Kee history, you can see the change of his political thought, and before the Second World War, the Chinese thought one tendency. Course Tan Kah Kee does not mean that all Chinese thought, because native Overseas Chinese and his ideas for some distance, even south to the Chinese is not always the case and he has the same idea.
Wealthy businessman Tan Kah Kee running a newspaper Schooling
Overseas Chinese to expand the period of anti-Japanese movement to interpret the Maxin Fu Tan Kah Kee life history can explain almost was a part of the Chinese political thought evolved. Professor Wang Gengwu overseas Chinese were divided into three groups:
A Group, they are mainly concerned about Chinese politics and foreign policy;
B Group, they are mainly concerned about community politics;
Group C, they have access to non-Chinese power pyramid, regardless of whether indigenous, colonial sovereign state or nationalists in power.
Tan Kah Kee is part of the A Group, but with Group B’s shadow. In 1890 (17 years), he came to Singapore in the south, his father Chen Jibo open base in Singapore and the Founding. In 1910, he owned the assets of 450,000 yuan. In 1909, he met Sun Yat-sen in 1910 cut off the braids to join the Chinese Alliance to sever relations with the Qing court, for his political start. Revolution broke out, the Tan Kah Kee responsible for fundraising relief compatriots in Fujian Province, and to maintain law and order. Jimei Primary School in his hometown to set up in 1913; Xiamen University, founded in 1912.
March 5, 1928, the Japanese militarists to send troops occupied Jinan, massacre diplomats Cai time and people, as the history of “3 by 5 Jinan Massacre. The news spread to Singapore, Chan engaging established Shandong horrible disaster chips Relief Commission, to remit 130 million, and called on the Chinese against the Japanese aggression, expand the boycott of Japanese goods. He founded the “Nanyang Siang Pau” widely publicized.
1931 “Mukden Incident, the Japanese imperialists invaded and occupied the three provinces in Northeast China, Tan Kah Kee nationals Assembly held in Singapore, energized the League of Nations (predecessor of the United Nations) and the President of the United States urges the to fulfill treaty, safeguarding world peace, or the upcoming war. Due to the world economic downturn attendant. The United States into the Great Depression, the impact of the world economy at the same time shrouded in the shadow of recession. Tan Kah Kee’s economy suffered severe losses and combat, and finally closing in 1934, Tan Kah Kee Corporation.
In 1937, the outbreak of the Seven Marco Polo Bridge Incident “, Japan, China initiated a comprehensive Anti-Japanese War. October 10, 1938, Tan Kah Kee the Nanyang Chinese Collection Relief motherland refugee Association (referred to as Namchow always), he served as President, then was elected the Malaya district Huaqiao Collection Relief Communications Director.

根据记载,当时筹款总数每年达到1亿6000余万元,但由于当时国民党非常腐败,许多捐款落入当时国民党一些高官的袋子。

陈嘉庚坚持抗日,反对妥协,因此对当时国民党副总裁汪精卫之主张对日和谈提出驳斥和反对。不客气地形容汪精卫是《秦桧卖国求荣》。

汪精卫主和失败后,为了躲避蒋介石追杀而逃往越南。随后接受日本招安献议,担任日本在东北扶助的,逊帝溥仪成立的《伪满洲国》丞相。

陈嘉庚转向支持中国共产党

1940年,陈嘉庚率领南侨总会慰劳团,回中国慰劳抗日军。过后他对国民党政府感到失望,乃倾向支持中共。

1942年,日本蝗军侵略南洋,马新沦陷时,陈嘉庚避难爪哇,1945年8月,日本军国主义投降,10月6日陈嘉庚自爪哇回到新加坡。

1946年,他用南侨总会长名义,拍电报给美国总统杜鲁门,要求停止干预中国内政,不再援蒋,以使内战终止。

这一年,他在新加坡又办了《南侨日报》,对国民党政府展开抨击。 1949年5月5日他从新加坡回国观光。较后在中国定居,1961年逝世。陈嘉庚在抗日战争时期是南洋华社的领袖,但他坦承筹款数目不是十分理想,虽然也不叫人失望。他说,除了资本家及侨生多不认捐外,其他如认过一次特别捐后,都不肯再认常月捐,故逐月成绩仅有此数(逾200万元)。

他认为,若资本家及中等商行,肯将其逐月入息,捐出十分之二、三,则全马义捐可增许多倍。至于每月有此200多万元,大半有赖货物捐及各游艺会所收集。而英属北婆罗洲(即今沙巴),华人虽有8万余人,劳动界占大部份,抗战后诸埠亦多成立筹赈会,但认常月捐仅古晋、诗巫数万元。

陈嘉庚的历史,在战后以来的一段时期,被人利用为指华人忠于中国的例子,但香港中文大学讲师郑赤琰博士在一篇论文中这样说:《不错,一些华侨和陈嘉庚在50年代以前,将大部份财产移回中国,但这是在马来亚独立前的事,也较中共于1949年建立政权为早。 》

无可否认的,在辛亥革命后至抗日的年代,侨生社会鲜少介入这类的政治活动,除了极少数领袖如林文庆等人外,绝大部份置身度外,因为他们忠于英殖民政府。但是,郑赤琰博士说,战后以来,峇峇(Baba)在新马政治中扮演了重要的角色。

英国殖民政府对于华人的抗日运动先是有所担心的,怕局面会失去控制,危及其统治地位和经济利益。最显著的是已被国民党及左派团体的斗争所困扰,迄至七七抗战开始,内部的斗争才缓和,而矛头一致向外。有人形容这是马来亚华人首次表现出团结的大好形势。

马来亚共产党的崛起

较后于1939年,英国宣布对德国希特勒作战,而希特勒又是与日本军国主义者狼狈为奸,造成英国改变对华人的态度。配合着反抗侵略行动。马新的华人也曾几次举行援英募款运动,慰劳英军及救助世界任何地方受难的英国人。因此英国政府深受感动,允许华人公开抗日,抵制日货,且于1941年日本南侵时,英人谋使华人政党共同站在同一个战线上。

According to historical records, the fundraising total number annually to reach 100 million more than 6000 million, many donations falling into the Kuomintang some senior officials of the bag at that time, but then Kuomintang very corrupt.
Tan Kah Kee persist in the War of Resistance against the compromise, the then the Kuomintang vice president Wang Jingwei’s advocate Negotiations refute and oppose. Bluntly describe Wang Ching-wei Qin Hui traitorous glory.
After the failure of the primary and Wang Jingwei, and fled to Vietnam to escape Chiang Kai-shek to kill. Then accepted the amnesty offer meeting as Japan to assist in the Northeast, Johnson Emperor Pu Yi, established the puppet state of Manchukuo, “the prime minister.
Tan Kah Kee turned to support the Communist Party of China
In 1940, Tan Kah Kee led Namchow always reward group back to China to reward anti-Japanese Army. After he disappointed with the Kuomintang government was inclined to support the Chinese Communist Party.
The the 1942 locust military aggression the Nanyang, horse new fall, Tan Kah Kee refuge Java, in August 1945, the surrender of Japanese militarism, October 6 Tan Kah Kee Java back to Singapore.
In 1946, he used the name of Namchow the president, sent a telegram to U.S. President Harry Truman to stop interfering in China’s internal affairs, no longer aid to Chiang, in order to make the Civil War terminate.
This year, he was in Singapore, and also do Namchow Daily expand criticized the KMT government. May 5, 1949, he returned from Singapore sightseeing. Later settled in China, and his death in 1961. Tan Kah Kee the Nanyang Chinese community leaders in the Anti-Japanese War, but he admits that fundraising number is not very good, though not disappointing. He says capitalists and overseas Chinese students do not take pledges recognize a special donation refused recognition often months tax, it month by month scores only this number (over 200 million).
He believes that the capitalists and medium businesses, and would be willing to month to month income, donated two tenths, three, the full horse Yijuan can increase many times. As for the over 200 million per month, more than half depends goods to donate, and recreation clubs collection. British North Borneo (now Sabah), although the 80,000 people of Chinese labor sector accounted for the majority of all ports after the War of Resistance Against Japan Relief Commission resembles the establishment of chips, but recognition often monthly donation only Kuching, Sibu, tens of thousands of dollars .
The history of Tan Kah Kee, in the period since the war, to be used as refers to Hua Renzhong example in China, Hong Kong Chinese University lecturer Dr. Zheng Chiyan paper said: “Yes, some overseas Chinese Tan Kah Kee in 1950s large part of the property to move back to China, but this is the pre-independence Malaya thing compared to the Chinese Communists in 1949, establishment of the regime is earlier. ‘
Undeniably, to the anti-Japanese era after the Revolution of 1911, overseas Chinese society rarely involved in such political activities, in addition to a handful of leaders such as Lim Boon Keng et al, opting out of the vast majority of, because they are loyal to the British colonial government. . However, the Dr. Zheng Chiyan said, since the war, Baba (Baba) play an important role in the politics of the new horse.
The British colonial government have to worry about the Chinese anti-Japanese movement first, afraid the situation will be a loss of control, endangering its dominance and economic interests. The most significant has been plagued by the KMT and the struggle of the leftist groups, Up to seventy-seven war began, the internal struggle before easing, while the spearhead consistent outward. Some people describe this excellent situation for the Malayan Chinese for the first time to show solidarity.
The rise of the Communist Party of Malaya
Than after 1939, Britain declared war Germany Hitler, and Hitler and the Japanese militarists working hand in glove, causing the British to change on the attitude of the Chinese. Combined with the action against aggression. Ma Chinese also aid the British several times held fundraising campaign, to reward British troops and rescue anywhere in the world suffering British. Therefore, the British Government was deeply moved, allowing the Chinese public anti-Japanese boycott of Japanese goods, and when the southward invasion of Japan in 1941, the British to seek the Chinese political parties to stand on the same front.


1941年,华侨动员委员会,在陈嘉庚主持下成立,动员委员会获得国民党及共产党的赞成,及得到殖民政府汤姆斯总督的祝福。该会在许多方面参加抗日军的工作,直到1942年2月15日,新加坡沦陷为止。

1940年国民党与中共,在重庆成立一项合作协定,促成了马来亚的马共与英国合作抗日。但是在战后,马共因为反对殖民统治,并曾公开活动,于1948年发动叛乱,退出法律范围,因此在英国殖民政府颁布紧急法令下,成为非法团体。从辛亥革命、抗日战争直至日本投降,马来亚的华人政治思潮是从低潮走向高潮,然后又有所分裂,国民党派和左派的斗争即为一例。

不过,新的政治思潮已在战后出现,盖过了以前的潮流,那就是不分种族的爱国意识和民族主义的抬头,纷纷要求国家独立,标志着战后以来,政治思想的再一次大转变。从战前的历史变迁看来,马来亚的华人在政治上是有所分歧的,即使是华社本身,也因方言互异,帮派林立,一直到今天。

至于思想上的落后与迷信的一面,则未因五四运动全面消除。相反的,人民之间仍然存在,甚至因各种的变相怂恿,封建的思想有大行其道之虞,对华人的政治醒觉无疑是一股阻力。不过,总的来说,战后的马来亚华人,已从倾向中国政治转向效忠于马来亚。这种政治思潮,标志着华人思想的转变,是值得重视的转捩点,也是一个新的起点。

战后三种思想演变

日本于1945年8月投降,正式结束了第二次世界大战。西方的希特勒及墨索里尼失败于前,日本军国主义者崩溃于后,整个世界出现了新的形势。

In 1941, the Overseas Chinese Mobilization Committee was established in the Tan Kah Kee, under the auspices of the Mobilization Committee in favor of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and to get the blessings of the colonial government Toms Governor. This in many ways to participate in the work of the Anti-Japanese Army until February 15, 1942, the fall of Singapore so far.
Kuomintang and the Chinese Communist Party in 1940, was established in Chongqing a cooperation agreement contributed to the total co-operation with the British anti-Japanese Malaya horse. But in war, horses against colonial rule, and has publicly activities rebellion in 1948, exit the scope of the law, and therefore become illegal groups in the British colonial government issued an emergency decree. From the Revolution, the War of Resistance Against Japan until Japan’s surrender, the Malayan Chinese political thought from the low tide toward a climax, and then divided KMT camp and leftist struggle is an example.
However, the new political thought in the post-war overshadowed the previous trend, that is, non-racial sense of patriotism and the rise of nationalism, have asked the country’s independence marked the post-war years, the political thought again changes. It seems from the historical changes of the pre-war Malaya Chinese divided politically, even the Chinese community, due to dialect differences gangs everywhere, until today.
As for the ideological backwardness and superstition side, not because of the May Fourth Movement, the total elimination. Instead, between the people still exist, even feudal ideas have become very popular in danger due to various disguised instigation, Chinese political awareness is undoubtedly a resistance. Overall, however, the post-war Malayan Chinese, from the tendency of Chinese Political allegiance to Malaya. This kind of political thought, marks the transformation of Chinese thought, is noteworthy turning point and a new starting point.
The evolution of the post-war three thoughts
Japan surrendered in August 1945, the official end of the Second World War. Hitler and Mussolini Western failure in the former, after the collapse of the Japanese militarists in the entire world to the new situation.

 

一边是美国军力的膨胀,迅速地跃居西方集团盟主的地位,领导资本主义世界。另一边是以苏联为首的集团,在东欧建立共产体系,也使到亚洲一些地区成为共产国家,如中国、北越及北韩(朝鲜)等。

但是,处在这两个夹缝中的其他国家人民,民族主义的思潮强烈地表露出来。这种思潮反映在争取国家的独立和自主方面,人民纷纷要求摆脱殖民地的统治。有些国家很快在战后即得独立,如印尼、印度等,而有些国家延至五十年代或六十、七十年代才实现独立的愿望。

第二次世界大战后,由于民族主义思潮的风起云涌,居住在东南亚的华人,处在极为微妙的地位,他们在理论上,需要或归属于居住地区或倾向中国之间作一抉择。但是,由于政治意识的分歧及一些华人采取保留的态度,造成了社团领袖或华人领袖,在政治方面所扮演的角色是不尽相同的。

前面说过,如果从历史的情况来分析的话,有的学者认为,战后华人的政治态度一般上可以分成三个集团。

甲集团主要关心中国政治和中国的对外政策;

乙集团主要关心社区政治;

丙集团已进入了非华人的权力政治金字塔,而不管是否由于土著、殖民地宗主国或是民族主义者掌权。

不过,王赓武教授认为,自1945年以来,甲集团的狂热已消退,许多人转变成为乙集团, 形成华人社区的统一与团结。飘浮不定的丙集团华人数目在增加,并努力向居留地认同。可是,这种情况在马来亚乃至后来的马来西亚并不明显,换句话说,这种分析的科学性是有斟酌的余地。

因为战后以来,马来亚的华人就不曾出现过团结与统一的局面,而是继续在政治上存在着分化,甚至是相互斗争的。王赓武教授在另一篇论文《马来亚的华人政治》里,将马来亚的华人分成三个政治体:

甲集团与中国的政治保持联系,经常与中国的命运认同;

乙集团包括大多数精明而讲求实际的华人,保持低调或作间接的政治联系; 丙集团是属于那些少部份的摇摆不定的人,因为他们难于确定自己的身份,但一般上倾向于某种程度的对马来亚的效忠。这种说法,比前一种说法较为明朗,但未涉及思想上划分他们的歧异。马来亚的华人在战后所受到的政治冲击,基本上可以分成下列三类:

(一)倾向中国,但是属于国民党份子或是具有右派的思想。

(二)倾向中国,但思想左倾。

(三)土生华人, 受英文教育,思想倾向西方,尤其视英国为其效忠对象,他们被称为《峇峇》。

新马华人处在分裂状态

无可否认的,第二次世界大战的惨痛教训,唤醒了东南亚的人民,普遍对政治的醒觉和重视,民族主义的浪潮排山倒海而来。但是,马来亚政治发展算是比较缓慢的,以致不需经过流血斗争即能迫使英国让步,当然这也是英国的深谋远虑──在政治上让步换取经济的既得利益。

同时,毋容讳言的,马来人的民族主义思潮表现得比较强烈,进而结成一股政治力量,于1946年反对英国提出的马来亚同盟(MALAYAN UNION),促使英国必须拟定另一种政治结构──马来亚联合邦,以确保马来人的政治地位。

马来亚联合邦协定于1948年2月1日生效,标志着马来人在政治上扮演积极角色的开始。而马来亚的华人,战后初期,仍未培养起马来亚的意识,倾向中国的,不论是左派或右派,热衷于相互的斗争,尤甚于关心如何争取独立以成为新兴国家的主人之一。不关心政治的,仍然抱着只管经济利益的态度,同时也担心当地的左派运动波及而受累,宁可置身度外。

土生的华人峇峇,对英国有深厚的感情,继续迷恋于英国的殖民地统治而受到庇护,甚至过于洋化的峇峇视英伦为其祖国,因此对于独立运动是拿不定主意,而不加以重视。基本上,华人就是处在一个分裂的状态中。就拿1946年英国建议的马来亚同盟来说:它是战后英国所制定的一份协议书,以把马来亚各州(不包括新加坡)置于英国的直接统治下。

英国政府决定,一旦政局复元而临时性的军事统治过去后,马来亚同盟将成立,旨在创造一个更有效率的政府组织和促进马来亚不同种族的马来亚人民的团结。但是,马来社会鉴于未顾及各州苏丹地位,和认为不利于马来民族,乃群起反对。在著名的领袖拿督翁的领导下,马来民族统一机构(简称巫统UMNO)成立,以反对马来亚同盟,结果英国让步。

另一方面,非马来人对于长期在马来亚居留后,将因此获得合法地位及政治权利的条件,却表现得不热衷。可能他们仍然对日治时代余悸未消,长期以来他们未被英国接受为马来亚人及被视为外来人,他们还是不能确定本身的身份,因此并不重视这个问题。

This in many ways to participate in the work of the Anti-Japanese Army until February 15, 1942, the fall of Singapore so far.
Kuomintang and the Chinese Communist Party in 1940, was established in Chongqing a cooperation agreement contributed to the total co-operation with the British anti-Japanese Malaya horse.

Instead, between the people still exist, even feudal ideas have become very popular in danger due to various disguised instigation, Chinese political awareness is undoubtedly a resistance. Overall, however, the post-war Malayan Chinese, from the tendency of Chinese Political allegiance to Malaya. This kind of political thought, marks the transformation of Chinese thought, is noteworthy turning point and a new starting point.
The evolution of the post-war three thoughts
Japan surrendered in August 1945, the official end of the Second World War. Hitler and Mussolini Western failure in the former, after the collapse of the Japanese militarists in the entire world to the new situation.

 One side is the expansion of U.S. military power, quickly leapt to the chief and the status of the Western Group, the leaders of the capitalist world. The other side in the group headed by the Soviet Union, and the establishment of the communist system in Eastern Europe, but also so that some parts of Asia became communist countries, such as China, North Vietnam and North Korea (DPRK).
However, in these two caught between the people of other countries, nationalist thought strongly show it. This trend is reflected in the fight for national independence and autonomy, people have asked to get rid of the colonial rule. Some countries soon after the war that was independent, such as Indonesia, India, and some countries until the fifties or sixty, the desire for independence in the seventies.
After World War II, due to the surging nationalist thought, the Chinese living in Southeast Asia, in a very delicate position, in theory, they need to or vested in the district of residence or inclination to make a choice between China. However, due to the political awareness of the differences and some Chinese adopt a reserved attitude, causing the community leaders or the Chinese leaders, the political aspects of the role played by the different.
As mentioned above, the history analysis, and some scholars believe that the postwar Chinese political attitude generally can be divided into three groups.
A Group is principally concerned about Chinese politics and foreign policy;
Group B mainly concerned about community politics;
Group C has entered the power of non-Chinese political pyramid, regardless of whether the indigenous, colonial sovereign state or nationalists in power.
However, Professor Wang Gengwu Since 1945, the Group A frenzy has subsided, many people transformed into the B Group, the formation of the unity and solidarity of the Chinese community. C Group, the fleeting nature of Chinese number increased, and efforts to agree to the residence. However, this case is not obvious in Malaya and, later, Malaysia, in other words, this scientific analysis is room for discretion.
Because since the war, the Chinese in Malaya never encountered the situation of solidarity and unity, but continue to exist in the political differentiation, and even fight against each other. Professor Wang Gengwu In another paper Malaya Chinese political, divided into three political body of the Chinese in Malaya:
A Group to keep in touch with China’s political, often with the fate of China’s identity;
Group B including the most astute and pragmatic Chinese, to keep a low profile or indirect political ties; C Group is a small portion wavering, because they are difficult to determine their own identity, but generally tend somehow The degree of allegiance to Malaya. This argument, a clearer picture than the previous way of saying, but did not involve the ideological divide their discrepancy. The Malayan Chinese suffered in the post-war political impact, basically can be divided into the following three categories:
(A) the tendency, but belong to the KMT activists or rightist thinking.
(B) the tendency to China, but leftist ideology.
(C) Peranakan, the English-educated, ideological orientation West, especially according to the United Kingdom for their loyalty, they were known as “Baba”.
The new horse Chinese in divided
Undeniably, the painful lessons of the Second World War, has awakened the people of Southeast Asia, widespread political awareness and attention, the wave of nationalism avalanche. Malayan political development, however, is relatively slow, so do not need to go through a bloody struggle that forced the British concession Of course, this is also the British foresight ─ ─ political concessions in exchange for economic vested interests.
Needless to say, the Malaysian nationalist thought was relatively strong, and thus to form a political force, in 1946 against the British proposed the Malayan Union (MALAYAN UNION), prompted the UK must develop alternative political structures-the Federation of Malaya, in order to ensure that the the Malaysian political status.
The Federation of Malaya Agreement came into effect on February 1, 1948, marks the start of the Malaysian assume an active role in the political. Chinese in Malaya, the early postwar period, yet cultivating awareness of Malaya tendency in China, whether leftist or rightist interested in each other’s struggles, especially in concerned about how to fight for independence in order to become the master of the emerging countries one. Do not care about politics, still holding the attitude of just economic benefits, also worried about local leftist movement spread and involvement, rather aloof.
Native Chinese Babas, British deep feelings continue to be obsessed with asylum by the British colonial rule, and even too westernized Baba, as England their motherland, for the independence movement is undecided, rather than attach importance . Basically, the Chinese is in a divided state. Take the 1946 British proposed the Malayan alliance: it is an agreement developed in post-war Britain, the Malaya states (excluding Singapore) placed under the direct rule of the British.
The British Government’s decision, once the political situation to recover and temporary military rule in the past, Malaya alliance will be established, aimed at creating a more efficient government organizations and promote the unity of the Malayan People of different races in Malaya. Malay community view, however, failed to take into account states Sudan, status, and that is not conducive to the ethnic Malay are rallied together to oppose. The famous leader Datuk Ong Tee under the leadership of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO UMNO), set up to oppose the Malayan alliance results concessions.
On the other hand, non-Malaysian conditions for long-term in Malaya residence, will therefore obtain legal status and political rights, but not act enthusiastic. They are still probably the sentimental to the Japanese colonial era, for a long time they were not accepted for the people of Malaya and is regarded as outsiders, they still can not determine their own identity, and therefore does not attach importance to this issue.

Retrospective Malayan-Chinese sages struggle back to the second: the turbulent era of revolutionary thoughts
FEB 2
Of the voice of justice

大家晚上好!很高兴又一次跟大家见面。

昨天说到,十九世纪末期,马来亚华裔社会受到满清皇朝光绪皇帝的感召,纷纷出资兴学。第一间的正规华校,当推建立于1904年(光绪卅年)的槟城中华学校,接着雪州有尊孔学校,霹州有育才学校之设,此风一开,全马各地纷纷兴学办校,教育风气至为蓬勃。

当时华人办学,并没有得到英殖民政府的资助,完全是在自力更生的情形下,传播华文教育。直到1920年,英殖民政府实施一项法令,要求对学校及教员进行登记和统制,并对华校实施津贴制度,虽然这只限海峡殖民地及马来联邦,而马来属邦不包括在内,不过华人还是不断发展华校。

据巴素博士统计,1938年,单在海峡殖民地与马来联邦的华校生逾9万名,英校生有2万7000余名。换句话说,读华校的人数远超过英校的数目。同样的情形,也反映在华文报业的兴起。

Good evening, everyone!I am pleased once again to meet with you.
Speaking yesterday, the late nineteenth century, Malaya, the ethnic Chinese community inspired by the Qing Dynasty Emperor Guangxu, have funded up schools. The first formal school, when the push was established in 1904 (Guangxu thirty years), Penang Chinese School, followed by Selangor respect holes schools, the Perak State the Yucai School of set, this wind one open, everywhere throughout Malaysia Schooling running schools, education atmosphere to flourish.
Chinese schools, and funded by the British colonial government did not, in the case of self-reliance, the dissemination of Chinese education. Until 1920, the British colonial government implemented a decree requiring the registration and control of schools and teachers, and China school implementation of the system of allowances Although this limited the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States, while the Malay States, including However, the Chinese, or the continuous development of Chinese schools.
According to the Basu Dr. statistical, in 1938, a single Chinese-educated in the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States, more than 90,000, and 27,000 more than British students. In other words, the number of people reading Chinese schools far more than the number of English schools. The same situation is also reflected in the rise of the Chinese Press.

虽然马来亚的第一份华文报,是1815年8月5日在马六甲创刊的《察世俗每月统计传》,是由教会主办,富宗教色彩,前后刊行六年半;但真正具有规模和有启迪作用的,是1880年在新加坡开办的《叻报》。

它是一份形式较多样化的华文报,创办人是薛有礼,一位新加坡土生土长的华人。他受过英文教育,但对中华文化酷爱。新加坡报人陈蒙鹤女士在《新加坡早期的华文报,1880年至1912年》的英文专书中,曾经分析《叻报》创办的动机,她认为《叻报》不是为利,而是为推广中华文化,改进华人社会风气,且具有爱国意识。

《叻报》内容包括新闻、社论、通讯及广告。新闻有本坡新闻、外埠新闻及国际新闻,前后刊行51年,第一任主笔叶季允,乃被礼聘从中国南来主持笔政,达41年之久。

But the real scale Malaya a Chinese newspaper, founded in Malacca on August 5, 1815 Depiction monthly statistics Biography “is sponsored by the church, the rich religious overtones, before and after the issue by the six and a half;and revealing, opened in Singapore in 1880, was “smart reported.
It is a more diversified forms of Chinese newspaper, founder Xueyou Li, a Singapore native Chinese. He received an English education, but the passion for Chinese culture. Singapore reported that people Miss Chen Menghe the English designed book in Singapore’s early Chinese newspaper, 1880-1912 “, used to analyze the motives of the founder of” smart “, she thinks smart reported” not for profit, but to promote Chinese culture, improvement of Chinese social atmosphere, and has a patriotic consciousness.
Smart newspaper content including news, editorials, communications and advertising. News news of the slope to other towns news and international news, before and after the issue by 51 years the first writer Ye Jiyun is polishers from South China to preside over the writing important, up to 41 years

学校和报纸俱是传播智识和文化的所在,对于政治思想的灌输,也是至为重要的工具。因此,从早期的华校和华报性质看来,清廷所要宣扬的是一套维护帝制的封建思想,对于儒家学说的重视,不遗余力,目的是要鼓起华人对清廷的效忠和跟随保守的政治潮流。

华人社团取代私会党

必须提起的是华人社团,在促进民族意识和保护会员方面所扮演的角色。一般认为,华人社团的组织是伴随华人南移的产物,虽然它很早就存在,但因早期私会党的势力庞大,支派很多,以致成为华人社会的〈保护者〉,社团的重要性也就相对减低了。

直到英殖民政府在1890年对付私会党组织后,公开注册的社团便如雨后春笋而起,取代私会党的作用。当然,这不是说社团较私会党发源迟,而是其功能在较后期才表规出来。

Schools and newspapers club where the dissemination of intellectual and cultural, for the inculcation of political thought, but also to an important tool. Therefore, it seems from the early nature of Chinese schools and Chinese newspaper, the Qing court to be propagated is a maintenance monarchy feudal thinking, For Confucianism attention, spare no effort to muster allegiance and follow conservative Chinese Manchu political trends.
Chinese associations to replace the Secret Societies
Must be brought by a Chinese community’s role in promoting the national consciousness and protection of Member. Is generally believed that the Chinese community organization is accompanied by Chinese southward, although it is very early, but large forces of the early secret societies, many of the tribe that it has become <protectors> Chinese society, the importance of the association relatively lower.
Until the British colonial government in 1890 to deal with the private party organizations, public associations registered mushroomed into the sky, to replace the role of the Secret Societies. Of course, this does not mean that societies than private party originated late, but its function only in the longer term regulation out

马六甲的青云亭是华人最古老的结合组织,槟城的广福宫,建于1800年。就是最早期的华人社团。

初期,庙宇与地缘性存有混合为一体的迹象。 1801年,槟城嘉应会馆的前身〈仁和公司〉成立,建筑为庙宇,槟城的广汀会馆前身为〈广东公司〉,成立于1801年。马六甲的应和会馆成立时,初称〈梅州众记公司〉,1825年改称为〈应和公司〉,嗣后始再改为〈应和书馆〉。

较早时期成立的会馆,多与私会党组织脱离不了关系。同乡团体,从故乡带来家族制度以及一切风俗习惯,会党亦是其中之一。所谓的会党,是指来自同一个乡下的村民所成立的组织,负责照顾所有乡党的福利和生活。会党对党员来说,是有绝对的义务,无条件扶助的团体。当权者认为,可以利用为支配的工具;农民和劳动者认为,是结合同人再好没有的组织,革命家亦认为它是具有重要意义的。

在马来亚槟城的福建公司,和海山党大伯公会,就是这样的会党组织;广汀会馆,宁阳会馆和义兴党,亦有不能分离的联系。若以县会馆而论,新加坡宁阳会馆的创办人,在义兴党的洪家祠中安有牌位。无疑的同乡团体具有封建性格。同时孙中山在华侨中,能够组织同盟会,原因就是可以动员私会党,所以会馆事业,是有利维持封建社会的秩序。

除了地缘性的同乡会,血缘性的宗祠外,亦有一种被认为是代表工商业和职工组织的业缘性团体,如建造行、兴和打金行、鲁班行等。华社研究学者认为,英殖民地政府鼓励带有商业性质的代表性组织,包括同乡会和宗祠在内,一个有名望的人,可以一身兼数职,而成为一方领袖。

当英国发现私会党的组织已尾大不掉,且渗入一些早期的会馆(前称公司)时,乃改弦易辙,通过扶持会馆、宗祠和商团来取代会党(私会党)的地位。廿世纪初叶,华团应运大量而生,这也是其中的原因之一。英国人也希望有名望的温和派华人领袖,特别重视受英文教育的侨领,来领导社团,直接归属英国统治,而又能协助政府推行政策。

华社团体百花齐放

就拿槟城来说,嘉庆5年(1800年)建立了广福宫(广东及福建人合作)后,又于光绪12年(1886年)在毗邻,挂起了市政府招牌的平章会馆,商业与社团结合的机能,发挥的淋漓尽致。从教育、报业及华团三方面的发展来看,马来亚华社对封建制度的维护表露无遗。尊孔学校及孔教会的中华学校,即旨在推行以孔子为代表的儒家学说,华文报宣扬封建文化也有其功效;华团拜祭神位,除削减私会党力量外,亦在于巩固封建体系。

虽然这些发展和所传播的政治意识,不全然与英国政治思潮相符合,但并未危及英国的统治地位和经济利益,因此英殖民政府也就任由华人的政治思潮自行发展。不过,英国人认为,通过法律的控制,对于华人的政治意识的控制是有效的,更何况当时,华人并无驱赶英国人的观念,只是侧重在经济发展和谋生,在政治上不很关注中国的政局变化。但是,上层的华社份子则以取得满清皇廷赐封的官衔为荣耀。

The mixed early temples and geopolitical there as one of the signs. 1801, Penang the Jiaying Hall’s predecessor <Renhe company> set up the construction of the temple, Penang wide Ting Hall, formerly known as <Guangdong company, established in 1801. Malacca the should and Hall of established early <Meizhou public record company> 1825 reform known as the <and> subsequent beginning and then changed to <and library.
Earlier period established associations, inseparable from the multi-party organizations and the private will. Fellow groups from hometown family system and all customs, will be one party. The so-called secret societies, the organization set up by the villagers from the same country, responsible for looking after the welfare and lives of all Xiangdang. Will be the party of the party members who have an absolute obligation to unconditionally help groups. Those in power think, can be used as a tool of domination; farmers and laborers that the combination colleagues no matter how good organization, revolutionaries also think it is important.
Malaya Penang Fujian, and seamounts Party uncle Association, this will party organizations; wide Ting Hall, Ningyang the Hall and Yising Party, also can not be separated from contact. Terms of the terms of the County Hall, the founder of Singapore the Ningyang Hall’s, in Hung Yising Party Ancestral Hall Zhong’an tablets. Undoubtedly groups of fellow feudal character. The Sun Yat-sen in the Chinese ability to organize League, the reason is that we can mobilize the Secret Societies, Hall career is conducive to maintaining the order of the feudal society.
In addition to the geopolitical Association of consanguinity ancestral halls, also a karmic groups on behalf of the industry, commerce and trade union organizations, such as the construction of the line,, Hing and goldsmith line, Luban line. Chinese community scholars believe that the British colonial government encouraged with a representative of the commercial nature of organizations, including Associations and ancestral hall, a prestigious, can be one of several roles, and become party leader.
When the British Secret Societies, organizations have been far too cumbersome, and to penetrate some early Hall (formerly the company) is to change course, and will support Hall, the ancestral hall and business group to replace the party (Secret Societies) status. Ye, the Chinese group in the early twentieth century to be shipped a large number of born, this is also one of the causes. The British renowned the moderates Chinese leaders, in particular the emphasis on the English-educated community leaders, to lead societies, directly attributable to British rule, but also to assist the Government in the implementation of the policy.
Chinese community groups flourishing
Take Penang, Jiaqing five years (1800) to establish the Kwong Fuk Palace (Guangdong and Fujian cooperation), Guangxu 12 years (1886) in the adjacent suspend the municipal government the signs of Pingzhang Hall combine the functions of the business and the community, to play the most. From the perspective of the development of the three aspects of education, the press and the Chinese group, Malayan Chinese community is the maintenance of the feudal system revealed. Respect hole schools and the hole church schools, that is designed to promote Confucianism represented by Confucius, the Chinese newspaper publicized feudal culture and its efficacy; Chinese group to pay respects to the tablets, in addition to reduce the power of the secret societies, is to consolidate the feudal system.
Although the development and spread of political consciousness, not entirely consistent with the British political thought, but did not endanger the dominance and economic interests of the United Kingdom, the British colonial government will let Chinese political thought itself. However, the British think is valid through the control of the law, for the control of the political consciousness of the Chinese, not to mention the time, the Chinese had no concept of driving away the British, just focus in economic development and to make a living, not very concerned about the Chinese political the political situation changes. However, the upper of the Chinese community activists the one that gets the official title for the glory of the Manchu Huangting encomienda

第一位获得清廷赐封官衔的华侨,是新加坡的章芳琳,时为1869年,所得的官衔为道官,以褒奖他慷慨献捐福建省的防务基金。

之前,海外华人得不到清廷《皇恩》之赐,是因为满清政府对海外臣民,采取敌视态度的一种表现。满清当局一向把海外华人看成罪犯或中国文化的背弃者。认为他们私自逃离国家到海外谋生,是一种被祖叛国的行为。但是到了19世纪末,清朝政府对华侨政策,发生重大的变化。 1893年,清廷颁布的一项通令,对华侨撤消传统的限制和惩罚,并献议保护那些回返祖国的华人。

通过捐款而授予官职是另一种拢络的手法,以使侨民忠于满清帝国。这是因为清廷在后期的经济出现危机,不得不借助海外华人的经济力量。演变到后来,授官之举成为清朝确保华侨效忠的一种手段,后来被利用做为一种政治武器,以对抗保皇党和革命党在新加坡、马来亚华族社会的影响力。

两种政治思想斗争

从历史发展看来,在20世纪之前的新马华侨政治潮流是不显著的,一般上是低调的。他们摆脱了清朝统治下的民不聊生的困境后,投身怒海,移居到马来亚,目的是为了谋生,而不是从事政治活动。只是在被动的情况下,他们依附着领袖及首领的政治意识,不过从未正式的集体表明政治态度。

Get a the Qing court encomienda rank the overseas Chinese, Zhang Fang Lin, Singapore for 1869, when the official title of the proceeds for the Road officials to compliment his generous offer to donate to the defense fund of Fujian Province.
Before, the overseas Chinese are not the Qing court’s infinite royal thanks Manchu government to take a hostile attitude towards a performance overseas subjects. The Manchu authorities has always been the overseas Chinese as criminals or desertion of Chinese culture. That they secretly fled the country to overseas to make a living, a progenitor of treason behavior. But by the end of the 19th century, the Qing government, the Overseas Chinese policy, significant changes occurred. In 1893, the Qing government promulgated a general order of the Overseas Chinese to undo traditional restrictions and punishment and offer advice to protect those who return the Chinese motherland.
Through donations and grant office is another a Longluo tactics to make nationals loyal to the Manchu empire. This is because the Qing court in the latter part of the economic crisis, had to resort to overseas Chinese economic power. Evolved later granted official move into the Qing Dynasty as a means to ensure that overseas Chinese allegiance later used as a political weapon to counter the influence of the royalists and the Revolutionary Party in Singapore, Malaya, ethnic Chinese community.
Two political ideological struggle
From the historical development in the 20th century, before the new horse Overseas Chinese political trend is not significant, generally low-key. After they got rid of the plight of the destitute people under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, to join the high seas, emigrated to Malaya, in order to earn a living, rather than engaging in political activities. Just in the case of passive, they rely on the political consciousness of the leaders and chiefs, but never officially collectively demonstrate political attitudes.

基本上,从甲必丹之设立,到土生华人社会的形成,到私会党的蓬勃,吸纳新客成为党员,到被英殖民政府封官收买,到最后被清廷封官收买,及后便在上层社会展开两种政治思潮的斗争。第一种思潮,是效忠清廷,协助腐败的满清政府致力巩固江山,取缔反抗清廷的份子;第二种思潮,则是追随孙中山先生的革命思想,出钱出力支持推翻满清政权。

这种斗争一直延续到20世纪,而掀起了一场波澜壮阔的运动,并且在一定程度上,激发整个华人社会的政治醒觉,纷纷加入了政治斗争。先是改良派的康有为到来争取华人,继之是孙中山先生的革命运动,接着便是抗日的斗争,随后是国共斗争的冲击,转入五十年代,民族主义兴起,华人政治思潮有了一个巨大和划时代的转变。

Basically, from the the Kapitan establishment to the formation of the Peranakan community, to the private party’s boom to attract new customers to become party members, to buy the official seal of the British colonial government, to buy last Qing court official seal, and afterwill commence in the upper classes of society the struggle between two political thought. First thought, allegiance to the Qing court assist corrupt Manchu government is committed to consolidate the country, ban against Manchu activists; second thought, is to follow Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary ideas, money and efforts to support the overthrow of the Manchu regime .
This struggle has been extended to the 20th century, and set off a surging movement to stimulate the political consciousness of the whole Chinese society, and to some extent, have joined the political struggle. First reformists Kang Youwei come to fight the Chinese, followed by Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary movement, followed by the anti-Japanese struggle, followed by the impact of the country struggle into the fifties and the rise of nationalism, the Chinese political thought have a huge and epoch-making changes

清朝统治下的中国,是一个丧权辱国的时代,在鸦片战争(1839年至1842年是第一次鸦片战争,1856年至1860年是第二次鸦片战争)前后,改良主义的思想即已在中国兴起。

尤其到了中日甲午战争阶段(1894年至1895年),由于清朝一再对外来霸权主义让步,促使一批知识份子提出改良主义学说,其中以康有为及梁启超为代表人物,推出了维新运动,但是遭到了当权派的反击。以谭嗣同为首的《四君子》被慈禧太后下令拘捕斩首。

戊戌政变的失败,迫使康有为及梁启超向外逃亡。他们的思想是保皇的,与光绪皇帝有密切联系,所痛恨的是慈禧太后为首的当权派。

China under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, an era of national betrayal and humiliation in the Opium War (1839-1842 First Opium War, the Second Opium War in 1856 to 1860) before and after the reformist ideas already in Chinarise.
Especially to the Sino-Japanese War phase (1894-1895), the Qing Dynasty the repeated foreign hegemonism concessions, prompting a group of intellectuals of the reformist doctrine, which representatives of Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, the introduction of the reform movement, but was to kleptocrats counterattack. Tan Sitong led by the “four gentlemen” Empress Dowager Cixi ordered the arrest of the beheading.
The failure of the coup d’etat, forcing Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao fled out. Their thoughts royalist, in close contact with the Emperor Guangxu, hated by the Empress Dowager Cixi, led by those in power.

他们谴责慈禧太后30年来的反动统治,不仅是中国人民的公敌,且是《大清十一代之罪人》,而《欲医中国之病,唯有将此恶政府除去,而另立一好政府(指光绪皇帝复辟)则下来俱妥矣》。

康有为及梁启超是属于《保皇派》的代表人物,不主张推翻帝制,到海外宣扬思想时,也促请华人支持光绪皇帝,对抗慈禧太后的顽固派。

康有为逃难的时候曾经到过马来亚,怡保的旅游景点霹雳洞,也有留下他的墨宝。不久之后,以孙中山先生为首的中国革命派也来到马新等地宣扬革命,以推翻满清政权,另立国民政府。

这两种对立的思想,在马来亚的华人社会中引起了一定程度的冲击,但在争取华人关心中国的政治前途方面,却是没有多大的差别。保皇份子曾先后在新加坡创办了《天南新报)(1898-1905年)与《南洋总汇报)(1905-1946年),他们也在槟榔屿创办了《槟城新报》(1895-1936年)。

康有为在另一方面也宣扬办学,鼓励华人筹组孔庙与社团等。孔教会乃先后在马星各地成立。有人指出,今日南洋各地,尤其是马来亚,有许多的华文学校,是由康有为在当时奠立基础的。

They condemned the Empress Dowager Cixi reactionary rule of the past 30 years, not only is the enemy of the people of China, and the Qing 10th generation of sinners “, and” For doctors of the disease in China, only the removal of this evil government, raise him up a goodthe government (Guangxu emperor restoration) down all properly carry on.
Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao royalists representative, does not advocate the overthrow of the monarchy, to overseas aired thinking, also urged the Chinese Emperor Guangxu against the Empress Dowager Cixi of the diehards.
Kang Youwei fled have visited attractions in Malaya, Ipoh, Perak hole, leaving his masterpieces. Soon after, the revolutionaries led by Sun Yat-sen came to horse new to their revolution to overthrow the Manchu regime, a separate National Government.
Two opposing ideas in the Chinese community in Malaya caused a certain degree of impact, but towards the Chinese are concerned about China’s political future, but it is not much of a difference. Royalist activists has “day Southern New) (1898-1905), was founded in Singapore with the Nanyang Allgemeine Zeitung) (1905-1946), they are also Penang founder of Penang, Hong Kong Daily News” (1895-1936 ).
Kang Youwei also publicize the school, on the other hand, to encourage the Chinese to the formation of the Confucius Temple and Societies. Holes church is successively set up around the horse Stars. It was pointed out that, today all over Southeast Asia, especially Malaya, many Chinese schools, by Kang Youwei then lay the foundation

在当时的上层华人社会,分成两种不同的看法,其一是海峡华人峇峇的亲英国思想,对中国政局不表关心。比如由峇峇薛有礼创办的《叻报》,即向康有为泼冷水。

其二是与中国有关系的,尤其是获得清廷赐封官衔的上层份子,他们宁可支持保皇运动,也不支持孙中山的革命运动。因此,保皇党初时在南洋社会占了优势。

例如英籍华人领袖林文庆就极力诋毁孙中山的革命,称他是《魔王》。

孙中山结合海外私会党势力

尽管如此,孙中山并不气馁,他在极为艰辛的不利条件下,组织他的革命团体。私会党的组织就成为他的结合对象之一。孙中山也是三合会的会员,他在中国、檀香山与海外其他地方都与三合会的支会联络。

后来,在1894年,孙中山自行成立的《兴中会》,也是依据传统的秘密会社的方式而行,会员同样用血宣誓,也同样传用秘密信号与言语。孙中山在革命运动中,曾利用私会党的协助。他于1903年在檀香山毅然加入致公堂,并被推举为《洪棍》,在洪门组织,称元帅为洪棍。

At the upper Chinese society is divided into two different views, one Straits Chinese Babas pro-British thinking, not table concerned about the political situation of China. Such as founded by Baba Xueyou Li, “smart”, namely Kang Youwei pour cold water.
The second is the relationship with China, especially the upper elements of the Qing court encomienda rank, they would rather support the royalist movement, does not support the Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary movement. Thus, royalists early in Nanyang social accounted advantage.
Such as the the British Chinese leader Lim Boon Keng strongly discredit the Sun Yat-sen’s revolution, said he was “the devil”.
Sun Yat-sen combined overseas Secret Societies forces
Nevertheless, Sun Yat-sen was not discouraged, he organized his revolutionary groups in extremely hard under adverse conditions. Secret Societies, the organization became his combination of one of the objects. Sun Yat-sen also triad members, his contact with Triad ward in China, Honolulu and elsewhere overseas.
Later, in 1894, Sun Yat-sen established by “Revive China Society”, is based on the traditional way of secret societies and the line, the member of the same blood oath is also borne by secret signals and speech. Sun Yat-sen, the revolutionary movement, have been used with the assistance of the Secret Societies. In Honolulu in 1903, decided to join the Zhi Gong Tang, and was elected to “Hung stick”, in the freemason organization, said Marshal Hung stick.


孙中山的《兴中会》,总会设在中国,分会散设各地,痛斥满清腐败无能,要求振兴中国。到了1905年,演化成同盟会,发出宣言表明:《驱除鞑虏,恢复中华,创立民国,平均地权》。同盟会于1906年在新加坡设立,随后在吉隆坡、槟城,森美兰、马六甲及瓜拉比劳纷纷设立分会,但在怡保计划不得逞,因为遭受保皇党份子的激烈反对。

保皇党与革命党的政治斗争,亦可从同盟会创办的报纸打对台戏窥见一斑。同盟会在新加坡设立《图南日报》(1904-1905年)与《中兴日报》(1907-1910年),也在槟城设立《光华日报》(1909年─迄今)。从历史资料显示,目前仍然是槟州最主要的报章《光华日报》,就是在孙中山先生的《同盟会》支持下创立的。

Sun Yat-sen’s Revive China Society “, always in China, club casual setting around, denouncing the Manchu corrupt and incompetent, and the revitalization of China. By 1905, evolved into the United League, issued a declaration that: “expel the Manchus and restore China to the creation of the Republic, the average land ownership. United League set up in Singapore in 1906, and then have to set up branch in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Negri Sembilan, Malacca and melon Labi Lao, but the plan does not succeed in Ipoh, suffered because of the fierce opposition of the royalist activists.
Royalists and political struggle of the Revolutionary Party, a rival show to get a glimpse of the founder of the newspaper can also be downloaded from the United League. United League “Figure” (1904-1905) of the Southern Daily the “ZTE Daily” (1907-1910), established in Singapore, Kwong Wah Yit Poh (1909 ─ present) also set up in Penang. From historical data, is still the most important newspapers in Penang Kwong Wah Yit Poh, is founded by Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s “United League support.


除了通过报纸之外,革命党人也通过演讲和一些社团从事活动,最著名的便是槟城的《阅书报社》(于1908年11月在社团法令下登记)。

尽管保皇党在马新的政治活动,曾在初期占上风,且得到上层份子的拥护,但同盟会则借助秘密会社的力量和中等阶级的支持,展开了一场针锋相对的尖锐化斗争;渐渐的后来居上。直到1908年慈禧太后和光绪皇帝于同月内死去后,保皇党已失去一个《挟天子之名》的号召力,而且清廷日益腐化,眼见大势已去,一些上层份子也掉转方向,支持孙中山了。

根据史料显示,华人群众并未全力介入保皇党及同盟会的活动,这是由于他们并不十分了解这些的政治斗争。而且,这两派的人多数周旋在中上层社会,尤以孙中山的身份更为特殊,他备受英国殖民政府的监视,不能自由活动,以致需要通过其他团体及报章来宣扬它的理想。

辛亥革命为海外华社带来激荡

1911年,中国辛亥革命成功,推翻满清帝制,建立中华民国政府,这个历史转变给海外华人社会的政治醒觉,带来巨大的震荡。究竟同盟会有多大的政治力量呢?根据一位革命党领袖邓慕韩统计,1908年在东南亚有3000名同盟会的会员,大部份来自马来亚、新加坡两地。当年新马一带的华裔总人口约为60万人。

日本的历史观察家估计,从1909年到1910年,在新隆槟三地约有2500名会员。如果此说无误,则其成员只占当时马新华人十五岁以上人口的0.3到0.5巴仙。但是,在孙中山先生于1911年12月29日在南京就任临时大总统后,许多中立派及保皇派份子转而支持孙中山先生,形势为之一转。尤其是在武昌起义后(导致清廷的灭亡),槟城有5000人剪掉辫子,怡保也有2000人返回中国参加孙中山的革命。

在捐款方面,槟城有6000到8000元,怡保有4000到5000元,吉隆坡有4000到5000元及其他市镇也响应,总计3万元到4万1000元不等。参加同盟会的人也增加至占当时华人15岁人口的4.4巴仙至5.9巴仙。总的来说,马来西亚华人政治思潮虽然已有所改变和较为积极,但上层社会仍有分歧,有人拒绝支持孙中山,吉隆坡的矿商陆佑及姚东生即为两个明显的例子。

The addition through newspapers, revolutionaries engaged in activities through lectures and some societies, the most famous is the Penang read books newspaper “(registered under the Societies Act in November 1908).
Gradually come from behind despite royalist new political activities in Malaysia, in the early upper hand, and the upper support of the criminals, but the United League With the power of the secret societies, and middle-class support, launched a tit-for-tat sharp struggle; . Until the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu died in the same month in 1908, the royalists had lost a “relying on the name of the Son of Heaven,” the appeal, and the Qing government increasingly corrupt, seeing the hopeless situation, some activists also turned the direction of the upper, support for Sun Yat-sen had.
According to historical data show that the Chinese masses did not fully involved the activities of the royalists and the United League, because they do not fully understand these political struggles. Moreover, the majority of the people of the two factions in the middle and upper social deal, especially the identity of Dr. Sun Yat-sen is more special, he is much of the British colonial government surveillance, can not be freedom of movement, so by other groups and newspapers to promote its ideals.
1911 Revolution for the overseas Chinese community agitation
In 1911, the success of the Chinese Revolution, the overthrow of the Manchu monarchy and the establishment of the government of the Republic of China, this historic change to the political awareness of the overseas Chinese community, huge shock. Exactly how much political forces United League? In Southeast Asia in 1908, according to a Revolutionary Party leader Deng Mu Han 3000 United League members, most from Malaya, Singapore. When new horse in the vicinity of a total population of approximately 600,000 people of Chinese descent.
The Japanese history observers estimated that, from 1909 to 1910, some 2,500 members in the new Long Penang. If this is correct, only then Ma Xinhua over the age of 15, 0.3 to 0.5% of the population of its members. Became provisional president Sun Yat-sen in Nanjing on December 29, 1911, however, a number of centrist and royalist elements in favor of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the situation for one turn. Especially after the Wuchang Uprising (leading to the demise of the Qing), 5000 cut off the braids in Penang, Ipoh, there are 2,000 people to return to China to participate in the Sun Yat-sen’s revolution.
In donations, Penang 6000-8000 yuan 4000-5000 yuan in Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur, also responds to 4000-5000 yuan and other towns, ranging from 30,000 yuan to 41,000 yuan in total. The people participating in the United League is also increased to 4.4 per cent to 5.9 per cent share of the then 15-year-old population of the Chinese. Overall, the Malaysian Chinese political thought has changed and a more positive differences remain, but the upper classes of society, some people refused to support two obvious examples of Sun Yat-sen, Loke Yew, Kuala Lumpur miners and Yao Dongsheng is.

他们不介入革命是有一些因素的,譬如不愿卷入任何与现存政权对立的活动,同时他们是在英国的保护下,得以成为巨富,他们因此与英国的关系较为良好,而对中国的效忠缺乏热忱。不过,也有富商转变他们的思想立场,如霹雳的矿商胡子春。他本是保皇派的人物,较后赞扬孙中山的革命是中国的先锋队。胡子春是霹雳华教中坚份子胡万铎的祖父。

正由于孙中山在为理想奔波时所遭受到的挫折,乃转而向中下层人民,以争取他们的支持。特别是受过教育的中层阶级,在阅读孙中山的言论及报纸的鼓吹文章后,华社思潮起了急速的变化,对满清的暴政起恶感,对外国的侵略产生抗拒心理,他们甚至本身也成为宣传家。

据知,在此时期,霹雳有2000名华工返回中国,那些尚在矿地的矿工,也合捐了1万元。这说明了孙中山的政治宣传已打进马来亚华人的中下层社会。除了工人以外,低层的人物包括私会党员、小贩、三轮车夫,乃至妓女及乞丐也捐款给革命运动。

They do not intervene in the revolution there are some factors, such as do not want to become involved in any confrontation with the existing regime activities, at the same time they are under the protection of the British, able to become wealthy, they are therefore relatively good relations with the United Kingdom to Chinaallegiance to a lack of enthusiasm. However, there are wealthy businessmen to change their ideological stance, as the Thunderbolt miner Hu Zichun. He royalists figure, later praised Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary vanguard of China. Hu Zaichun is the the Perak Chinese teach backbone of Hu Wan Tudor’s grandfather.
Precisely because of the setbacks suffered by the Sun Yat-sen is ideal to run around, is turned to the people of the middle and lower classes, in order to win their support. Especially the educated middle class, read after Sun Yat-sen’s advocacy speech and newspaper article from the Chinese community thought the rapid changes in the ill-feeling from the Manchu tyranny produce resistance to foreign aggression, they even itself become publicity house.
Far as I know, in this period, Perak 2000 Chinese laborers to return to China, and those still in the mine to the miners, together donated $ 1 million. This shows that the Sun Yat-sen’s political propaganda has reached the the Malayan Chinese middle and lower social. In addition to workers, the low-level figures, including the private will of party members, hawkers, rickshaw drivers, and even prostitutes and beggars contributions to the revolutionary movement.

尽管现代一些学者提到辛亥革命时,认为对整个马来亚和新加坡华人社会的冲击并不是很大,也不是澈底;但他们并没有否定对20世纪初,华人的闭塞,保守与冥顽思想起了很大的冲击。

王赓武教授在其论文《1900-1911年海峡殖民地华人保皇党份子及革命党份子》中指出:《介于1900年与1911年间,最主要的不是经济与社会的变迁,而是海峡殖民地华人,倾向中国的思想与态度的转变。 》

民族主义思潮风起云涌

二十世纪初期,根据颜清湟博士形容,在这个时期马、新华人介入中国的革命活动是史无前例的,虽然革命活动主要在于拯救中国,但对海外华人确有深远的影响。这种影响可以分成三类:海外华人民族主义思潮的兴起;海外华人团结力量的增长及新思想的涌现。

其一,由于民族主义的思想鼓吹,遂使到数以千计的海外华青,回到中国参加推翻清朝,甚至牺牲生命,并有许多捐款支持孙中山的革命。从1911年启开的民族主义思潮,成为马新华人与中国维系关系的主要指导源泉。同时,这种思潮也带着反对外来势力的意念,一直发展下去。

其二,在孙中山先生展开革命之前,海外华人是不团结的,也有帮派的斗争。不团结阻碍了革命思想的传播,帮派斗争影响华人社会的经济成长,并阻止了不同方言集团的合作。

Although modern scholars mentioned in the Revolution, that the impact on the entire Chinese community in Malaya and Singapore is not great, nor is it thoroughly; but they do not negate the effect of the early 20th century, the Chinese occlusion, conservative and stubborn ideologya great impact.
Professor Wang Gengwu pointed out in his essay “1900-1911 Straits Settlements Chinese royalist elements Revolutionary Party elements”: “between 1900 and 1911, the most important is not economic and social changes, but the Chinese of the Straits Settlements, the tendency China’s ideological change of attitude. ‘
Nationalism Thought surging
The early twentieth century, according to Dr. Yen Ching Huangzhong describe the horse in this period, the new Chinese intervention revolutionary activities in China is unprecedented, revolutionary activities mainly to save China, but does have a profound impact on the overseas Chinese. This influence can be divided into three categories: The Rise of the overseas Chinese nationalism; growth of overseas Chinese solidarity and the emergence of new ideas.
First, the nationalist ideology preaches, occasioned to the thousands of Overseas Chinese Youth, returned to China to participate in the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty, and even their lives, and many contributions in support of the revolution of Sun Yat-sen. Ma Xinhua maintaining relationships with China from 1911 Kai nationalist thought, the main source of guidance. In the same time, this trend took against the idea of foreign forces, has been to develop.
Second, before the revolution of Sun Yat-sen expand overseas Chinese is not united, gang struggle. Unity to hinder the spread of revolutionary ideas, gang wars affect the economic growth of the Chinese community, and to stop the cooperation of different dialects Group.

当孙中山先生于1906年,在吉隆坡主持同盟会支会成立仪式时发出警告说:本地华人的不团结,最终将导致整个华人社会的崩溃。

他于是通过同盟会,展开各种宣传运动。如阅书报社、夜校、戏剧表演,使到不同力量的集团,为孙中山的革命而在一起工作,他们学习相互了解,相互合作以解决共同的难题。通过不间断的联系,华人的团结精神和国民意识乃被加强和发展起来。

1909年在霹雳打巴成立的《集群社》,就是灌输团结思想的组织。另一项最主要的发展,便是在学校传播华语,逐渐打破用方言教学。当然保皇派在这方面也有其贡献,它使到华人有了共同的媒介语。

我们也注意到,在这个时期各州成立的中华总商会(最初为华人商务局)。虽然这些组织是清廷所赞成的,有倾向清廷的思想意识,但对殖民地政府也没有坏处,因此先后被允许成立起来,这类组织容纳各帮派代表,而在促进谅解及团结方面,有了多少的帮助。

《追溯馬來亞華裔先贤奋斗史》第一

When Sun Yat-sen in 1906, in Kuala Lumpur, presided over the inaugural ceremony of the United League clubs warned: local Chinese are not united, will eventually lead to the collapse of the whole Chinese society.
He League, expand the various publicity campaigns. Such as reading books newspaper, evening, theater performances, so that a different strength of the Group, Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary work together, they learn to understand each other, cooperate with each other to solve common problems. Uninterrupted contact the spirit of unity and national consciousness of the Chinese is to be strengthened and developed.
Thunderbolt Pakistan established cluster community in 1909, is to instill ideological and organizational unity. Another major development is the spread of Chinese in schools to gradually break the dialect teaching. Course royalists in this regard also has its own contribution to it so that the Chinese have a common media language.
We also note that the states set up during this period of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce (originally Chinese Business Bureau). While these organizations are in favor of the Qing court, have a tendency to imperial ideology, but no harm has been allowed to set up such organizations to accommodate various gangs represent the colonial government in promoting understanding and unity how much help.

自从20世纪70年代开始,巫统推行新经济政策,并且成为国阵内一党独大的政党以来,大马华社经常成为少数巫统极端分子出言不逊,任意欺压的对象。到了80年代马哈迪掌政的时代,这种现象尤其严重,一直到今天,我们仍然不时听到和看到一些极端巫统分子发表《华人寄居论》,《滚回中国论》;甚至还有马来学者公认侮辱华裔。说我们的祖先当年南来,男人是当龟公,女人是当妓女云云。

即使华社群起抗议声讨,但是在当政者巫统的庇护,和马华不敢开口理论之下,这些发表侮辱华人言论的政客学者都不会受到对付。久而久之,许多年轻一辈的马来人,都认为华人确实是马来西亚独立后才从中国来到这里生活的《寄居者》。这片土地的真正而且为一的主人,就是马来人。连马哈迪也会跟着起哄,利用《Tanah Melayu》的字眼来证明,这里原本是马来人的地方。

更加可恶的是,居然还有类似邱嘉金之类数典忘祖之徒附和马哈迪,否定了华人先辈开拓这片土地的历史功绩。有鉴于此,半年前我就决定收集大马华人史料,立志还原大马华人先辈在这片土地开荒的血泪史。籍此给与那些不学无术的巫统政客和无耻的学者一个强而有力的反击。这里有四个论点,需要先跟大家说明。

Since UMNO implementation of the new economic policy, since the 1970s, and become a one-party dominant political parties in the Barisan Nasional, Malaysia’s Chinese community often become minority UMNO extremists insulted the any oppressing object. 80 the ‘Mahathir Di Zhangzheng era, this phenomenon is especially serious, until today, we still hear from time to time and see some extreme UMNO molecular published “Chinese sojourn’,” go back to China ‘; even Malay scholars recognized insult to the ethnic Chinese. That our ancestors then south, a man is when the turtles public, the woman as a prostitute so.
Even from the Chinese community protest to denounce, but in the refuge of those in power in UMNO and MCA afraid to speak under, politicians and scholars published insult Chinese speech are not subject to deal with. Over time, many of the younger generation of Malaysian, Chinese indeed sojourners from China after the independence of Malaysia came here to live. Real but also as a master of the land, is a Malaysian. Even Mahathir also followed the booing, the use of the words “Tanah Melayu” to prove where the original is a Malaysian place.
More appalling is that actually there Qiu Jia Jin class have forgotten progenitor of the believers to go along with Mahathir denied Chinese ancestors to explore the historical merits of this piece of land. In view of this, six months ago, I decided to collect the Malaysian Chinese historical materials, determined to restore the wasteland tragic history of the Malaysian Chinese fathers brought forth on this piece of land. Whereby a strong counterattack to give those ignoramuses Umno politicians and shameless scholars. There are four arguments need to be explained to begin with.

 

第一:华人早在1千200年前,就已经来到这片土地,华人先辈来到马来半岛的历史,比马来人更久远。这可从考古学者在吉兰丹,登嘉楼和柔佛州发现的唐代陶瓦古物得以证明(可惜这些出土文物的鉴定结果都被当政者刻意掩盖了)

第二:马来民族也不是这片土地的原本主人。马来人事实上都是印尼亚齐一带移民到马来半岛的后裔。仅有大约600年的历史。

The first: the Chinese as early as 1,200 years ago, it has come to this land, Chinese ancestors came to the history of the Malay Peninsula, more distant than the Malaysian. This can be found by archaeologists in Kelantan, Terengganu and Johor Tang Dynasty terra cotta Antiquities evidenced (Unfortunately, these archaeological finds identification results are those in power deliberately covered up)
Second: Malay nationalism is not the original owners of this land. The Malaysian In fact all the descendants of immigrants to the Malay Peninsula in Indonesia’s Aceh area. Only about 600 years old.

第三:这片土地的真正主人,是原住民Orang Asli。他们才是从有文字记载以来就一直生活在这片土地的真正主人。就像瑙鲁族之于纽西兰,红印第安人之于美国。

第四:从从三佛齐、赤土、狼牙修、盘盘、屈都昆等半岛古国的历史记载及出土文物证明马来半岛古国都是奉行印度文化,证明印度人移居到马来半岛的时间也比马来人更早。

因此,我们大马华裔公民绝对可以很有尊严的告诉全世界,我们也是这片土地的原住民,是这片土地的土著。和其他所有民族一样,拥有平等的地位。那些说我们华人是外来寄居者的人,其实等同于在讲他们自己!

Third: the true masters of this land, the aboriginal Orang Asli. Since they are the ones from the written records have been living in the real masters of this land. Like Nauru family in New Zealand, Red Indians in the United States.
Fourth: are pursued from the Malay Peninsula from Srivijaya, terracotta, Spike repair, trays and trays, Qu Dukun Peninsula ancient historical records and archaeological finds prove ancient Indian culture, prove that Indians migrated to the Malay Peninsula The time is earlier than the Malaysian.
Therefore, our Malaysian-Chinese citizens can definitely tell the world of the very dignity, we are the indigenous people of this land, this land’s indigenous. Like all other nations, have equal status. Those who say that we Chinese foreign sojourners, in fact, equivalent to speak their own!

因此,我们大马华裔公民绝对可以很有尊严的告诉全世界,我们也是这片土地的原住民,是这片土地的土著。和其他所有民族一样,拥有平等的地位。那些说我们华人是外来寄居者的人,其实等同于在讲他们自己!

在开始之前,请容许我很简单的问一问各位朋友,尤其是年轻一辈的朋友,这些有趣的问题:

你或许知道吉隆坡有不少以华人名字命名的街道,像陆佑路(Jalan Loke You),陈秀莲路(Jalan Chan Shau Lin),叶观胜路(Jalan Yap Kuan Seng)等等,当然全马还有许多大小城镇的街道,都有华裔先贤的名字。你们知道这些先贤的背景吗?你们听说过他们的事迹吗?知道他们为了这片土地的开拓和发展,贡献了什么力量?相信大家的答案都是模糊的。

现在,就让我为大家细说从头,马来西亚华侨苦拼数百年的血泪史。给大家一个比较清楚的历史轮廓;还原大马华裔先贤辛苦奋斗的真相。这些历史真相,保证100%真实,而且,肯定是大家在国民中学历史课本上看不到,读不到,也找不到的。因为,国阵政府多年来都在努力抹杀华裔先贤开拓这片土地的功劳!

华人最早期的峇峇社会

马来西亚华人先贤的奋斗历程和政治思潮的演变,是必须从历史事件去追溯的。由于华人帮派林立,思想繁杂,要全面的剖释思潮的发展是极其困离的。鉴于资料有限,因此我只能尽量从历史片断去概述,挂一漏万及主观上的错误,在所难免;尚请大家见谅。

Therefore, our Malaysian-Chinese citizens can definitely tell the world of the very dignity, we are the indigenous people of this land, this land’s indigenous. Like all other nations, have equal status. Those who say that we Chinese foreign sojourners, in fact, equivalent to speak their own!
Before you begin, please allow me to ask you friends very simple, in particular, is a friend of the younger generation, the interesting question:
You probably know that many streets named after a Chinese name in Kuala Lumpur, Loke Yew Road (Jalan Loke, You), Chen Hsiu-lien Road (Jalan Chan of Shau Lin), the Ye Guansheng Road (Jalan Yap Kuan Seng) and so on, of course, the whole horse many towns and cities the streets, there are ethnic Chinese sages name. Do you know the background of these sages? Have you heard of their deeds? To know in order to explore and develop the land, they contributed what forces? I believe that everyone’s answer is vague.
Now, let me as we elaborate scratch, Malaysian Chinese bitter fight to the tragic history of centuries. Give a clear historical outline; restore the Truth Malaysian ethnic Chinese sages hard struggle. These historical truth, to guarantee 100% true, and certainly is not read, can not find the point of view in a junior high school history textbooks. BN government over the years in efforts to obliterate ethnic Chinese sages to develop this piece of land credit!
Chinese earliest Babas society

华人移居东南亚,包括马来西亚,是很早的事。例如历史学家姚丹在他的著作《马来亚华侨史纲要》一书中指出,在唐代末叶以迄五代,华人流寓苏门答腊岛者已多,散居马来半岛者,亦为数不少。他们习惯称呼自己为《唐人》,就是一种口传的证据。

不过,《马来亚华侨史》的作者维特巴素博士则认为,十四世纪马六甲王朝成立后,华人的移居比较规模化,而在1511年葡萄牙占领马六甲后,华人才存有永久居留的意念。但是,截至十七世纪,华人在马六甲的人口不过三、四百名。 (注:荷兰人于1641年打败葡萄牙,占领马六甲。)

延至十八世纪中叶,居住在马来亚的华人总数只是数千人。他们多是商人和矿工。在这初期的迁居移殖阶段,他们亦有与马来妇女、暹罗、马达(BATAK)和巴里(BALI)妇女通婚。在有文字记载的马来半岛历史上,首次诞生第二代的华人子弟。

这些早期留居在马六甲的华人,终于组成一个《峇峇》(BABA)社会,较后这类的社会也在槟城和新加坡顺序建立起来。在马来文里,他们的名称是《Peranakan》。并且自组《海峡华人公会》。

Chinese diaspora in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, early. Yao Dan, for example, the historian, in his book “The Malayan Overseas Chinese History Outline” a book that the last years in the Tang Dynasty to until the Five Dynasties and Chinese Refugees of Sumatra Island, Diaspora Malay Peninsula, and there are many . They used to call themselves “Chinese”, is evidence of an oral tradition.
However, Malayan Overseas Chinese History “Dr. Wei Teba prime of that, after the establishment of the fourteenth century Malacca Chinese migrants comparison scale, Portuguese occupation of Malacca in 1511, the Chinese talent there for permanent residence ideas. However, as of the 17th century, the Chinese population in Malacca but three or four hundred. (Note: the Dutch in 1641, defeated the Portuguese occupation of Malacca.)
Extended to eighteen century, thousands of people of the total number of Chinese living in Malaya. They are mostly businessmen and miners. Moved in early colonization stage, they are also with Malay women the Siamese the motor (BATAK) and Barry (BALI) women intermarriage. , The first time the birth of the second generation of Chinese who have a written record of the history of the Malay Peninsula.
These early stay in Malacca Chinese, and finally form a society “Baba” (BABA), the latter type of social order also Penang and Singapore established. Malay, their name is “Peranakan”. And since the set of the Straits Chinese Association.

所谓《海峡华人公会》,就是由一批已转化为峇峇的华人所组成。根据约翰甘默(JOHOR CLAMMER)所著《海峡华人公会》─书中,对峇峇社会有下列的分析。

他认为,峇峇是一个与中国没有联系的社会,而且生活习惯已经《土生化》。虽然在一定程度上仍然保存中国的旧传统,但语言方面的《福建马来化》和装饰上的改变,使到他们成为特殊的社群。其实,华人比较有规模的移民,是英国于1786年占领槟榔屿后。到了1824年,英国将槟城、马六甲及新加坡合并为海峡殖民地(Straits Settlement),华人移民在这三个地区的人数激增。

1874年,英国与霹雳苏丹签署邦咯条约,揭开英殖民势力介入半岛的序幕。 1884年,马来联邦成立,1909年马来属邦成立。到廿世纪初,整个马来半岛落入英国手中,华人的移民也就更进一步增加。根据统计,1911年,马来半岛及海峡殖民地人口中,华人共有87万4200人。

由于华人大量移入,海峡侨生(或称土生华人,即峇峇)所扮演的角色也受到冲击。一般而言,峇峇的思想是西方化的,接受英国为宗主国,因而成为英国人乐于聘用的政府部门文员。十八世纪和十九世纪初叶,峇峇的政治意识与行为,大都是效忠于大英帝国与海峡殖民地政府,而不是中国。

马来亚华侨的甲必丹制度

1900年,满清政府的义和团事件,导致八国联军进攻中国,当时有一名海峡侨生,投稿《海峡华人杂志》(THE STRAITS CHINESE MAGAZINE),呼吁海峡华人组成一支分遣队到中国与英军并肩作战,共同对付义和团。

Straits Chinese Association, has been transformed by a group of Chinese Babas. Straits Chinese Association “─ book written by John Gan Farmer (JOHOR CLAMMER), the following analysis of the social Babas.
He believes that Baba is no contact with the Chinese community, and habits has soil biochemical. Although still save the old tradition, to a certain extent, but the language of of Fujian Maleinized and decoration of change, so that they become a special community. In fact, the Chinese have more scale immigration, is occupied by the United Kingdom in 1786, Penang. To 1824, the British merger of Penang, Malacca and Singapore Straits Settlements (Straits Settlement), a surge in the number of Chinese immigrants in these three areas.
In 1874, the United Kingdom and the Perak Sudan signed the Pangkor Treaty, opened the prelude to the British colonial forces to intervene Peninsula. In 1884, the Federated Malay States was founded, the Malay States established in 1909. To the beginning of the twentieth century, the entire Malay Peninsula fall into British hands, the Chinese immigrants will further increase. According to statistics, in 1911, the population of the Malay Peninsula and the Straits Settlements, the Chinese total of 874,200 people.
Due to the the Chinese large number of shifted, the Strait of overseas Chinese students (or Peranakan Baba) plays the role of impact. Generally, Baba thought Westernized interview with Britain as a sovereign state, and thus become the British happy government departments employ clerks. Leaves, Baba’s political awareness and behavior in the beginning of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, mostly loyal to the British Empire and the Straits Settlements government, rather than China.
Malayan Overseas Chinese Kapitan system
1900, the Manchu government Boxer event, lead to the Eight-Power Allied Forces attack China was a Straits overseas Chinese students, Contributor “Straits Chinese Magazine” (THE STRAITS CHINESE MAGAZINE), called for the Straits Chinese a detachment to the Chinese and British troops alongside combat, jointly deal with Boxer

1901年11月,有100名海峡侨生加入新加坡义勇军步兵队,表现对英国政府的忠贞。不过在十九与廿世纪交替间,清廷、保皇党与革命党三股势力在马来亚和新加坡的活动,曾导致若干海峡侨生领袖的思想激荡。他们热望中国能变法图强,跻身世界强国之林。其中如林文庆.伍连德、曾锦文与阮添寿等人,更毅然回中国服务。

另一方面,从中国移居马来亚的华人,归属于两种包含着政治体系的制度,其一是受公开承认的《甲必丹制度》,其二是容许存在的帮会组织。所谓《甲必丹》,就是英文的Captain。也就是华人统称的《酋长》或《蕃长》。受委蕃长者,通常是当地华裔族群中德高望重或有相当影响力者。比如吉隆坡开埠功臣叶亚来,就是受封的甲必丹。

在马来亚,第一位被葡萄牙殖民政府委任的甲必丹是郑启基,又名郑芳扬。荷兰殖民时代的甲必丹则为李君常(原名李为经)。一些华社研究学者认为,郑启基是马来亚最古老寺庙青云亭的创建人。不过也有学者认为,郑启基于1632年在漳州出生,于1677年,委任他为甲必丹的是荷兰殖民政府。

 

In November 1901, the 100 Straits overseas Chinese the Singapore Volunteers Infantry Team, and the performance of the loyalty of the British Government. However, in the nineteenth and twentieth century alternating between the activities of the three forces of the Qing court, royalists and the Revolutionary Party of Malaya and Singapore, has led to ideological agitation of certain Strait overseas Chinese leaders. They desire to undertake political reforms, one of the world powers. Which such Boon Keng. Wu Lien-teh, Tsang Kam Man with Ruan Tianshou, decided to return to China service.
The other hand, from the Chinese of Chinese settlers in Malaya, attributable to the two contain the political system of the system, one is by openly admitted that “Kapitan system, and the second is to allow the presence of gang organization. The so-called “Kapitan”, the English Captain. Is the Chinese collectively referred to as the “chief” or “Fan.” By the Committee aboriginal elders, who is highly respected in the local Chinese population or have considerable influence. Yap Ah Loy, such as Kuala Lumpur, its history, the hero, is a glimpse of the Kapitan.
In Malaya, one appointed by the Portuguese colonial government Kapitan Zhengqi Ji, also known as Zheng Fangyang. Kapitan, the Dutch colonial era, compared with Li Jun Chang (formerly known as Lee by). Chinese community scholars believe the Zheng Qiji is the most ancient temples in Malaya Cheng Hoon Teng create people. Some scholars believe that Zhengqi Ji in 1632 were born in Zhangzhou, in 1677, appointed him as Kapitan Dutch colonial government.

不论哪一种说法比较准确,我们可以肯定的是,在英殖民势力侵入马来半岛之前,华人甲必丹制度已在马来亚存在。华社研究学者认为,华人在马来亚建立本身的社会,自然带来既有的社会和政治结构。殖民政府当局也允许华人这样做。华人建立自己的学校,而华人社会的福利及社会服务制度,通过自己主动获得确保。

早期的中国满清政府,也通过赐封南洋〈华人甲必丹〉制度,来维持南洋当地的法律与秩序。从历史事件显示,早期华人甲必丹是一种家长式的统治,与清朝有着一定的联系。他们在马来亚的华人社会,维持着封建式的地位,基本上,政治思想是倾向中国的帝王制度,最突出的例子是槟城的第一任华人甲必丹辜礼欢,约在1790年被莱特委任,距离莱特占领槟城不过三、四年时间,当时华人不过二百名左右。

No matter what kind of more accurate to say that, we can be sure, before the British colonial forces invade the Malay Peninsula, the the Chinese Kapitan system has been in Malaya. The researchers believe that in the Chinese community, the Chinese in Malaya to build their own social, natural to bring the existing social and political structures. The colonial Administration also allows the Chinese to do so. Chinese to build their own schools, and the welfare of the Chinese community and social services system ensure, through their own initiative.
The early Chinese Manchu government also adopted the the encomienda Nanyang <the Chinese Kapitan> system to maintain law and order in the Nanyang local. From the historical events of the early Chinese Kapitan a paternalistic rule has some connection with the Qing Dynasty. Chinese community in Malaya, they maintain the feudal status, basically, the political thinking is the tendency of China’s imperial system, the most prominent example is the first Chinese in Penang Kapitan Huan Koo ceremony, about 1790 Wright appointed from the Wright occupation of Penang, but three or four years, when the Chinese, but two hundred.

辜氏借着英国人的势力,成为酒税承包人,跃居富豪,他的次子辜安平,少时被送往中国,初在林则徐幕府服务,后调往台湾。中日甲午战争,中国战败,被迫将台湾割让给日本后,辜安平尚被封为贵族。

至于辜礼欢的孙子辜鸿铭(辜礼欢的第三子辜龙池的儿子),被英国贵族布朗(FORBES SCOTT BROWN)收为养子,后负笈英国爱丁堡大学,荣获文学硕士,精通法语、德语和现代希腊语。因受清朝帝制影响,开始留辫子,抛弃洋服,穿中国衣。1873年,辜鸿铭回中国,考中进士,出任两湖总督张之洞的幕僚。他的著述甚丰,其中《怒吼之声》表达的世界伦理观念,备受欧洲人重视,而译成数种西洋文。

可是他的顽固思想,使他在清朝灭亡后,仍然主张保留辫子、缠脚、纳妾与抽鸦片等恶习,竟叫嚣辫子为〈中华民族之标志与徽号〉。更叫人不齿的是,在民国成立后十年,他依然背着潮流,只有逊帝宣统对他的〈忠贞不渝〉表示激赏,曾死后追封他为〈唐公〉(溥仪逊位后,被日本人利用为傀儡,建立伪满洲王国)。

私会党崛起争夺势力

如果说,英国人先是借助当地的华人领袖或有地位的人来控制华人社会,以为英殖民政府牟利,那么,到后来英国人则是利用私会党魁来担任甲必丹,以驾驭华人社会,监督他们和灌输大英帝国的思想。

私会党传入马来亚,也是与中国移民同一时期。根据巴素博士说:〈马来亚华人私会党,大体来说,出于天地会分脉,亦称为洪门或三合会,在中国已生存有好几个世纪,原本属于宗教或慈善自助的团体,而在满清时,具有反清复明的政治意识。 〉

三合会大约是成立于1674年,即清朝入关后约卅年。他们打起反清复明的旗帜,并发愿:〈严守秘密,歃血饮酒,结为义兄弟〉。档案显示,在槟榔屿开埠后的十三年,即1799年,私会党已在槟城公开活动,且曾鼓起暴乱。

据槟榔屿的海山会领袖刘亚昌供述,1825年,他们已备有300只小船,结集1万5000暹罗人,1000华人及8000马来人,准备在槟起事,意图推翻英国殖民政府。如果此说确有根据,那证明早期的私会党,也拥有反抗英殖民统治的政治思想,但因力量不足,有需借助暹罗人的支持。不过,有关的举事最终功败垂成。

历史资料也指出,其实华人并不真正支持暹罗入侵,有的只是为了支持吉打苏丹所展开的维护尊严和地位斗争,确保吉打安宁。吉打州,早年某些华人领袖对马来王室的效忠,几乎变成了传奇的故事。李氏兄弟(李欲修及李欲正)和甲必丹戴春桃(又名戴春华),对吉打当地社会的忠诚服务的事迹,长久遗留在当地人民的记忆中。

But he’s stubborn ideology, so he still advocating the preservation of the Qing dynasty, braids, foot-binding, concubinage, opium and other vices, actually clamoring for braids <Chinese nation flag and emblem>. More as people despised, in 10 years after the founding of the Republic, he is still carrying the trend, only Hudson Emperor Xuantong <faithful> appreciative, has bestowed his death <Tang public> (Pu Yi abdicated after Japanese used as a puppet of the establishment of the puppet Manchuria Kingdom).
Rise of the Secret Societies contention forces
If British first by Chinese leaders to control Chinese society, and that the British colonial government for profit status, then, to the British is the use of the private will party leader to serve as the Kapitan, to manage the Chinese community, monitor them and instill the thinking of the British Empire.
The private party incoming Malaya, but also with the Chinese immigrants the same period. According to Dr. Basu: Malayan Chinese private party, generally speaking, out of heaven and earth will be divided clock, also known as freemason or triad, have survived for centuries in China, originally belonged to religious or charitable self-help groups, in the Qing, anti Fuming political awareness. >
The Triad approximately established in 1674, the Qing Dynasty entry about thirty years. Playing the banner of anti Fuming concurrent willing: kept secret, drink blood drinking, became sworn brothers>. The file shows thirteen years in Penang after Opening in 1799, the secret societies in Penang public events, and had to muster riots.
According to Liu Yachang, Penang seamounts will leaders confession, in 1825, they have been equipped with 300 boats and Collecting 15,000 Siam, 1000 Chinese and 8000 Malaysian in Penang uprising, with intent to overthrow the British colonial government. If under that proves early private party, also has a political ideology against the British colonial rule, but the lack of strength, requires the use of the Siamese support. However, the uprising eventually lost.
The historical data also pointed out that, in fact, the Chinese do not really support Siam invasion, some just to support Kyrgyzstan to hit Sudan launched dignity and status struggle, to ensure that the Kedah tranquility. Kedah early years, some Chinese leaders on the allegiance of the Malay royal, has become almost legendary story. Lee’s brother (Lee Items Number of Copies and Lee For positive) and A Kapitan Dai Chun Tao (aka Dai Chunhua), Kedah deeds of loyal service to the local community, long-term legacy in the memories of the local people.

1821年,暹罗占据吉打,迫使大批马来人集体逃往槟城和威省。但吉打苏丹在当地人民,包括华人的合作下,致力维护社会秩序和各族人民应有的权利。直到1909年,英暹条约签署后,吉兰丹、丁加奴、吉打及玻璃市的宗主权归英国。巴素博士发现,1825年时,马来亚有下列四个私会党组织:义兴、和成、海山及华生。

他们的初期组织结构是:海山与义兴,散布于殖民地各处,会员均服从会中领袖的命令及约束。他们称其领袖为大哥。这些私会党分作四个、八个或十二个主要干部,然后分成许多支派,每个干部及每个支派,都有一位头目管理。从唐山(中国)南来的移民,叫做〈新客〉,他们来到任何一个地方时,这些私会党便会派人邀请他们入会,假如他们拒绝的话,便会受迫害。

由此可见,早期的华人结帮立会,在表面和名义上是讲求兄弟义气,有福共享,有难同当,但实际上却是领袖在培植势力,以向英殖民政府争取更大的利益。在政治方面,他们没有浓厚的倾向,虽然标榜反清复明,但在利益争夺底下,私会党已沦为争夺地盘的组织了。

尽管如此,英国人还是没办法控制他们,以致巴素博士形容私会党组织是〈政府中的政府〉,俨然是马新华人的〈地下统治者〉。莱佛士的私人秘书文西阿都拉在其自传中,有描述私会党强制华人入党的情形,迫使他们就范,否则受到毒打,甚至被杀害。

以当时的情形看来,南来的华人一无所有,他们别无选择,只有被迫参加这些私会党。根据史载,私会党后来竟分成两大派系,一为义兴,一为海山。这两大派系吸纳不同省籍的人士,且以拉律(即今太平)的暴乱为最严重的冲突实例。

私会党制造暴乱

霹雳的暴动也称拉律暴动。拉律以产锡闻名,起初归海山党人开采,首领是郑景贵,地盘是在吉利包矿区(即今太平监狱地)。另外,在太平甘文丁,则归义兴党人所发掘,首领为苏亚昌。两党为利而争,兼之籍贯互异,义兴属粤之四邑,即广东帮;海山属闽南五县,即福建帮。

另一说法,义兴以广府人为主,海山以客籍人为主。首次暴动发生于1862年,继之1872及1874年再发生第二及第三次暴动。私会党鼓起暴动之前,已断续在各地发生暴乱,如新加坡、槟城、马六甲以至砂劳越,例如新加坡1851年的大暴乱,起因于私会党不满一些华人改奉天主教,结果造成500人丧生。槟城于1867年也发生在三合(义兴)与督公(大伯公)之间的殴斗,竟展开十日大械斗,使全市陷于瘫痪。

然而最为重要者是拉律的第三次暴动,终于启开英殖民政府干涉联邦内陆的序幕。着名的邦咯条约就是于1874年签署的,英国的参政司制度于是逐一推进马来半岛内陆。私会党的政治意识是随着首领而发展的,他们曾反对英国的施政,也抗拒任何对他们利益的约束,更建立了自己的小王国。

In 1821, Siam occupy Kedah, forcing a large number of Malaysian collective fled to Penang and Butterworth. But Kedah the Sudan local people, including cooperation with the Chinese, seeking to uphold the social order and the rights of the people of all ethnic groups should have. Until 1909, after the signing of the Anglo-Siam Treaty of Kelantan, Terengganu, guitar playing and the suzerainty of Perlis under British. Dr. Basu, the 1825 Malaya the four private party organizations: Yi Xing, and into, seamounts and Watson.
Their initial organizational structure: the seamounts and Yising, scattered colonies throughout Member obey the command of the leader will and constraints. They call leader for Big Brother. These secret societies divided into four, eight or twelve cadres, and then divided into many tribes of each cadre and each tribe has a leader management. From Tangshan (China) south of immigrants, called the new passenger>, and they come to any place, these secret societies would send people to invite them to membership, will be persecuted if they refused.
Thus, the early Chinese knot help legislature emphasis on brotherhood in surface and nominally blessed to share, when in trouble with, but in fact it is the leader in nurturing forces, to fight for the greater interests of the British colonial government. In political terms, they do not have a strong tendency, although advertised anti Fuming, but in the interests of competition for under Secret Societies has been reduced to turf battles organization.
Nevertheless, the British still no way to control them, so that Dr. Basu described the party organizations in the private will Government> <government, just like Ma Xinhua <underground rulers>. Raffles Private Secretary Vinci Abdullah in his autobiography, described Secret Societies circumstances force the Chinese to join the party, forcing them into submission, and otherwise severely beaten, and even killed.
It seems the situation at the time, the Southern Chinese have nothing, they have no choice but to be forced to participate in these secret societies. Contains the history, secret societies was actually split into two factions, one of Yee Hing, a seamount. The two factions attract persons of different provinces, and riots the pull-law (now the Pacific) as the most serious conflicts instance.
Secret Societies manufacturing riots
Perak riots also said the pull legal riots. Pull law known to produce tin, initially under seamount partisan exploitation, chief Chung Keng Quee site is in the the Geely package mine (now the Taiping prison places). In Kamunting, Taiping, under Yising partisan excavations by the princes of Suya Chang. While bipartisan Tametoshi contention, Chairman of Hometown different, Yising case of Four Counties in Guangdong, namely Guangdong to help; the seamount case Minnan five counties, namely Fujian to help.
Another saying Yising mainly Cantonese people, seamounts mainly Hakka people. The first riots occurred in 1862, followed by the second and third riots happen again in 1872 and 1874. Secret Societies muster riots, has intermittent riots around, such as Singapore, Penang, Malacca and even Sarawak, for example, the 1851 riots in Singapore, due to the Secret Societies dissatisfaction with some Chinese reform Bong Catholic, resulting in 500 people were killed. Penang also occurred in 1867 in fighting between the triple (Yising) Governor male (Grand Uncle) actually commence on the 10th fight with weapons, so that the city came to a standstill.
However, the most important is the third pull-law riot, and finally open the British colonial government to interfere in the prelude to the federal inland. The famous Pangkor Treaty is signed in 1874, and the British the political participation Division system so one by one advancing the Malay Peninsula inland. Secret Societies of political awareness with the leader of the development, they had objected to the policy of the United Kingdom, also resist any constraints on their interests, and established their own little kingdom.

但是狡黠的英国统治者,在这方面是随机应变的。当无法镇压时,便采取拢络手段,例如义兴党和白旗会(WHITE FLAG,由马来人及印度人组成)的领袖陈亚炎被委为甲必丹,而海山党三合会首领郑景贵,也同样出任甲必丹。他们之间既是敌对,但在拉律事件后,也有合作的地方,在霹州议会上为华人利益据理力争。

甲必丹亚贵(郑景贵)和陈亚炎,身为华人社会的代表人物,自从出任甲必丹之后,都肯把大众利益放在个人利益之上。这二位旧敌表现出一种令人仰慕的特性。自从两党纠纷媾和之后,他们反而变成亲密朋友。据知,陈亚炎后来成为郑亚贵第四子的契爷,这个孩子就是有名的郑大平。

尽管私会党存在着违反法律乃至不良的记录,到了1877年被政府控制其活动,但私会党并不因此而绝迹。在19世纪下半叶,仍然在政治潮流的冲击下,表现其不定动向。不过,在华人社会的公开影响之下,私会党已经渐渐式微,由合法的华团组织取代了。综而观之,私会党当时的政治潮流不是倾向西方的,因此他们与英国的合作除了保护既存的权利外,领袖更想从中获得更大的利益。

一般而言,他们继承了旧中国的传统和宗教。譬如槟城海珠屿的大伯公张理,即被认为是最早来槟的华人,因此拜神成为华人思想的重要部份,封建的意识十分浓厚,同时也由于华社自成一体,对于街道的命名也与英文的意思截然不同。

But the the sly British rulers, resourceful in this regard. When unable to repression, they take the Long Luo means, for example Yising Party and white flag will (WHITE FLAG, composed by Malaysian and Indian) leaders Ya Yan was appointed as Kapitan, while the the seamount party triad leader Chung Keng Quee Kapitan also served. They both hostile place, but after the events of the pull-law, and cooperation for the Chinese interests in the Perak State Assembly argue.
A must Danya expensive (Chung Keng Quee) and Ya Yan, as a representative of the Chinese community, since served Kapitan are willing to put the public interest above personal interests. Both of these old enemy showed an admirable characteristics. Since the two parties disputes peace, they have become close friends. Far as I know, Ya Yan later became the godfathers of Zheng Yagui fourth son, this child is the famous Zheng Taiping.
Although the Secret Societies exist in violation of the law and even bad record, and to 1877 by the government to control its activities, but the Secret Societies not be extinct. In the second half of the 19th century, still under the impact of the political trends, performance its adventitious trends. However, in the open under the influence of the Chinese society, the private party has been gradually declining, replaced by the legitimate Chinese league organizations. Comprehensive and the concept of, the Secret Societies political trend is not Western-oriented, and their cooperation with the United Kingdom in addition to the protection of existing rights, the leaders would like to derive greater benefits.
In general, they have inherited the old tradition and religion. For example, Penang Haizhu island of Grand Uncle Zhang Li, is considered is earliest to Penang Chinese worship become an important part of the Chinese thinking, a very strong sense of feudal, but also due to the Chinese community self-contained body, for the street the name is also a very different meaning in English.

 


接受感召效忠清廷

由此可以想像,他们是在英国的殖民地土地上建立自己的社会。不过,他们已缺乏反清复明的政治意识,现实主义已经取代他们对于理想的追求。尤有进者,加上赌博与抽鸦片大行其道,华人的思想即被麻木,而对政治显然不热忱,除非是关系到切身的利益,才起而反抗。利益的冲突和争夺,及对工人的剥削已使私会党变质,而在后来的社会发展中,成为一种绊脚石。

Thus, you can imagine, they are in the British colony land to build their own society. However, they have a lack of political awareness of anti Fuming, realism has replaced their quest for the ideal. Carry, coupled with the popularity of gambling and opium, Chinese thinking Jibei numbness, while obviously not dedicated to politics, unless it is related to personal interests, was up against. Conflicts of interest and contention, and the exploitation of workers have the Secret Societies deterioration in later social development has become a stumbling block.

不过,这些私会党也不完全对政治没有意识,尤其是担任首领的,或多或少存有对中国的关心。郑景贵是其中一个例子,他在发迹后,偶尔返回家乡,捐输救济中国水灾及战争救济金。他是在李鸿章提督指挥下的法越战争时期捐献的(清廷支持越南,以阻止法国威胁中国安全)。满清政府为酬答他的捐献,特封赐予二品官衔头。这又显示早期的华人领袖,有部份在一定程度上是支持清廷的。

1877年,英政府任命白麒麟(WALTER ALEXANDER PICKERiNG)为华民护卫司,是为英人直接干预华人事务之开始。华民护卫司亦为社团注册官。 1882年危险社团法令生效后,宣布海山公司为非法组织。1889年社团法令通过,1890年,海峡殖民地政府援引新的社团法令,封闭所有华人私会党组织,并将一部份私会党徒驱逐出境,所有的社团必须重新登记才能公开活动。

同时,就在英国设立华民护卫司的同一年(1877年,即光绪3年),清廷也在新加坡设立领事馆,首任领事为胡亚基。1890年,清廷接着在槟城设领事馆,首任领事为张弼士(张振勋)。领事馆的设立意味看清廷认定当地的华人是它的子民,因此有受保护的必要,而在这方面与英国的华民护卫司制度起了冲突。

因为英国认为,住在马来亚的华人必须接受英人的统治,无其他势力可以在殖民地施行治外法权。英国坚持不让清廷对华人产生政治影响,只是允许通商的连系,以致两者关系不能协调,且演变成一种政治对抗。但是,鉴于华人的倾向,清廷在唤起华人对中国的关心取得了一定的效果。其中一个实例,是一位新加坡富商陈金钟独捐4000元,给清廷作为救济饥荒基金。

很显然的,清廷最后对英国人妥协,只委当地人出任总领事,而不是由清廷遣派,这进一步激发马来亚当地华人对清廷的效忠。虽然是住在英国统治的地方。这种通过领事馆的活动,使清廷占了优势,尤其是在政治意识的灌输,尽管当地的华人服膺于英国的法律。从华文教育和华文报业的发展,即可见诸一斑。

However, these secret societies is not entirely political consciousness, especially as leaders, more or less there is concern on China. Chung Keng Quee is one example of his fortune after occasionally return home, relief flooding in China and war relief donations. He donated to Vietnam during the war in the the Li Hongzhang prefect under the command of the law (the Qing court support Vietnam, in order to prevent the French threat to China’s security). Manchu government for answers for his donations, special seal – given the official title of the head of the two products. This show early Chinese leaders have majority support to some extent the Qing court.
In 1877, the British government appointed white unicorn (WALTER ALEXANDER PICKERiNG) Guarding Division for China and China, direct intervention in Chinese affairs start for the Englishman. Guarding Division of China and China is also the Registrar of Societies. Dangerous Societies Act to take effect in 1882, announced that the the seamount company as an illegal organization. Societies Act 1889 through 1890, the Straits Settlements government invoking the new Societies Act, closed all Chinese Secret Societies party organizations, and a portion will be private gang members deported to public events, all societies must re-register.
Meanwhile, in the UK the establishment of China and China Guarding Division of the same year (1877 Guangxu 3 years), the Qing court also Singapore to establish consulates first consul for Huya Ji. In 1890, the Qing court followed consulate in Penang, the first consul the Cheong Fatt (Zhang Zhenxun). The establishment of the consulate means that the Qing court finds that the local Chinese people, and therefore protected from the conflict in this regard with the British system of China and China Guarding Division.
As British Chinese living in Malaya must accept the rule of the British rule, and no other forces in the colonies purposes extraterritoriality. Insist on keeping the Qing government to have a political impact on the Chinese in the United Kingdom, just allow trade ties, so that the relationship between the two can not be reconciled, and evolved into a political confrontation. However, in view of the tendency of the Chinese, the Qing court arouse the Chinese care achieved a certain effect. One instance, a Singapore businessman Chen Admiralty alone donated 4,000 yuan to the Qing court as a famine relief fund.
Obviously, the Qing court last British compromise, only served as Consul General appointed locals, rather than by Qing court Dispatching, which further stimulate the the Malaya local Chinese Manchu allegiance. Although it is a place to live under British rule. This through the consulate’s activities, so that the Qing government prevailed, especially in the political consciousness of indoctrination, although local Chinese obedient to the laws of the United Kingdom. , Can be seen from the development of Chinese education and Chinese Press evident

在当时清廷的政治思潮影响下,华人对文化和教育乃告热心起来,虽然于1729年,清代雍正年间,槟城设有一所五福书院及1888年(光绪十四年戊子)又设一间南华义学,但属于私塾性质,学校规模尚未形成。

第一间的正规华校,当推建立于1904年(光绪卅年)的槟城中华学校,接着雪州有尊孔学校,霹州有育才学校之设,此风一开,全马各地纷纷兴学办校,教育风气至为蓬勃。华文教育于是在马来亚这片土地上萌芽,并茁壮成长。从此以后,马来亚华文教育的火炬,再也没有熄灭过。

今晚的《追溯马来亚华人先贤奋斗史》第一回,就说到这里。明天同样的时间,我们再会。谢谢大家的支持,晚安。

《铁窗首长林冠英:浴火重生的不死鸟》

作者

The Road Back Directorate Lim Guan Eng: the ashes of the Phoenix”
JAN 26
Of the voice of justice


大家晚上好!从大年初一到初三,一连三天和大家讲述了林吉祥的《政海浮沉录》传奇故事之后。今天,要跟大家讲讲林吉祥的儿子,《铁窗首长》林冠英。

我知道林冠英有很多粉丝,尤其年轻一辈的选民特别钟爱林冠英。选民喜欢林冠英,是出于真心。因为他虽然贵为首席部长,但是他平易近人,毫无首长的官架子。他嫉恶如仇,对社会的不平等,对当权者刻意制造各族之间的矛盾冲突,绝不选择沉默,而是用于发声。

虽然这使他遭受牢狱之灾,但是他无怨无悔,不会因为受到残酷的打压而退缩。林冠英能有今天执政槟州的成就,是他和父亲辛苦奋斗多年,卧薪尝胆得来的成果。在谈过了林吉祥之后,紧接着讲述林冠英,我个人觉得,很有意义。

因为林吉祥和林冠英,在传承家族,政治斗争目标理想和贯彻行动党的理念,各方面都有着息息相关的脉搏。在家族里,林冠英身为长子,父亲已经接近退休阶段,他必须接棒,照顾弟弟妹妹,为林家开枝散叶。这一点,林冠英做得不错。他和太太周玉清,已经育有4名子女。

在行动党的党务方面,林吉祥早已于1995年卸下党秘书长的最高职位,交棒郭金福,然后传给林冠英,完成了世代交替的工作。林冠英承继了父亲强硬的作风,在贯彻行动党斗争路线的工作方面,林吉祥绝对可以放心。

在国家政治发展大势方面,林冠英也不负众望,协助父亲圆梦,在2008年的308全国大选,率领行动党第三代年轻新锐大军出战槟州,一举推翻国阵盘踞了40年的槟州政权。继王保尼,林苍佑和许子根之后,林冠英出任槟州第四位华裔首席部长。

林冠英在峇眼国会选区中选,同时也在阿逸布爹州选区当选州议员。他率领的行动党大军,一举攻下槟州19个州议席,与夺得9个州议席的公正党联手执政槟州。308大选,民政党和马华在槟州全军覆没,输到连一席都不剩。这个在槟州马华和民政党史上,堪称史无前例。

执政槟州,圆首长梦

民主行动党获得了创党以来最大的胜利,行动党在全国竞选47个国会议席,中选28席(胜出比率59.57%)。在州立法议会方面,行动党竞选9个州属的101个州议席,中选73席(胜出比率72.28%)!行动党因此得以和公正党共同执政槟州,并且在雪兰莪和霹雳与公正党和回教党组织联合政府。

霹雳州在民联执政一年之后,由于许月凤和其他两个公正党州议员被国阵收买而倒戈跳槽;致使霹雳民联州政府垮台。许月凤三人的行为和国阵的肮脏手段,已经为大马民主政治再添一个大污点。霹雳州民联政权被国阵使用肮脏手段巧取豪夺,那是题外话。我们言归正传。

关于林冠英,这里建简单的向大家介绍他的背景。林冠英出身于1961年12月8日,出身地点在柔佛州的峇株巴辖。祖籍福建林宝山。父亲是现任怡保东区国会议员。母亲梁玉治。林冠英早期在峇株巴辖和马六甲接受小学和中学教育。

随后到澳洲莫纳斯大学深造( Monash University),考获经济会计学位,是一名合格的会计师。在父亲长期的政治理念熏陶之下,1982年,他21岁的时候,选择加入民主行动党。他在1983年从澳洲学成归来之后,并没有马上投身政治;而是在银行任职高级行政人员。

1986年,由于父亲林吉祥发动《丹绒一役》而远征槟州,在丹绒国会选区挑战代表董教总加入民政党,出战丹绒国会议席的许子根。林吉祥腾空出来的马六甲市区国会选区,便由林冠英代父守土。

他不负众望,以1万7千多张多数票击败国阵马华候选人,中选为马六甲市区国会议员。那年,林冠英才25岁。因为林冠英继承了父亲嫉恶如仇的个性,使得他针对许多不平等的课题敢怒敢言,很快就成为国阵的眼中钉,肉中刺。

1987年,由于教育部派出不谙华文的教师出任华小高职,引起董教总严厉抗议。当年刚刚度过梁陈党争的马华,还有锋芒毕露的行动党新锐,前所未有的走到了一起,与董教总联手,在吉隆坡天后宫举行抗议大集会。并且宣布如果教育部不收回成命,董教总将号召受影响的华小展开罢课行动。

董教总,行动党和马华破天荒走在一起的举动,触怒了巫统,在当年的巫青团长纳吉率领之下,也在吉隆坡Kg. Baru举行马来人大集会;扬言要以华人的鲜血清洗马来剑!

两度入狱,卧薪尝胆

局势演变成了种族对峙的局面。当年马哈迪也刚刚走过巫统AB队党争,巫统正需要一些外来事件凝聚马来人的向心力,于是默许属下刻意将原本单纯的教育课题炒成种族课题,借以转移巫统因为党争而闹分裂的视线。引导马来人将仇恨转移到华人身上。

当马来人与华人之间的仇恨被巫统的有心人不断煽风点火,眼看即将一发不可收拾,极有可能重演五一三悲剧的时候,马哈迪展开了雷厉的《茅草行动》,动用内部安全法令,大肆逮捕华裔政治人物和华社领袖。

林冠英和林吉祥父子,还有行动党许多党要,加上董教总的沈慕羽,林晃升,柯嘉逊等等,都被捕入狱。关进了太平甘文丁扣留营。林氏父子是最后两个获得无条件释放的行动党领袖。他们总共被关了长达18个月。

1989年4月,获得释放的林冠英,获选为行动党社青团团长,同时他与英文星报驻马六甲记者周玉清坠入爱河的消息正式公开。同年12月共结连理。

1990年,在林吉祥发动《丹绒二役》的龙头对决中,在槟州巴当哥打击败林苍佑,成功否决槟州国阵2/3州议会优势的同时;林冠英也已1万4千多张多数票成功连任马六甲市区国会议员。

1994年,林冠英扛上了马六甲首席部长阿都拉欣淡比仄。林冠英公开表示,他手头上拥有阿都拉欣的贪污证据。

他指控阿都拉欣拥有来路不明的财产高达2千7百42万元;并且先后10次到反贪污局报案。然而,马哈迪政府掌控之下的反贪污局始终没有采取调查行动,这令林冠英非常不满。接着,林冠英接获一位未成年少女的母亲求助,指控甲州首长涉及淫乱罪,与15岁未成年马来少女发生性关系。

从来不是种族主义者的林冠英,并不因为前来求助的是马来友族而拒绝协助。他毅然决定代未成年马来少女出头,指控阿都拉欣涉及奸淫罪。因为按照马来西亚刑事法典条文,任何男人若与未满16岁少女发生性关系,无论对方是否出于自愿,都属于违法行为。

可是,林冠英万万没有想到,他仗义为未成年马来少女出头,指控阿都拉欣涉及性丑闻事件,换来的却是令自己陷入无穷无尽的灾难中。虽然这宗性丑闻成功打击了阿都拉欣的声望,但是,在官官相护的情况之下,阿都拉欣不但官位稳固,也没有受到任何法律对付。反而是代替未成年马来少女出头的林冠英,从此官司缠身。

首先,林冠英面对总检察署以《1948年煽动法令》对他提出控告,指他发表不实言论,意图中伤马六甲首席部长的名誉。接着,由于林冠英涉嫌印刷及派发传单,因此被总检察署加控以触犯1984年印刷机及出版法令。

仗义出头,反遭出卖

开始的时候,林冠英认为所有对他的指控,罪名都是不成立的。因为阿都拉欣与未成年少女发生性丑闻的事件,他拥有人证。未成年马来少女和她的家人都愿意站出来指证阿都拉欣的奸淫罪。可是后来的形势发展,却大出林冠英的意料之外。未成年马来少女和她的家人忽然在庭上改口,自己推翻了对阿都拉欣的指控!

后来据说,未成年马来少女和家人只所以改口否认之前的指控,是因为他们私下与阿都拉欣达成和解协议,取得一笔为数不小的赔偿金;条件就是必须在法庭上翻供。

得到了大笔金钱的赔偿之下,未成年马来少女的家人见钱眼开,见利忘义,决定遵守秘密协议,在法庭上翻供,推翻之前所有的指控。这样一来,就陷林冠英于不义了。形势大逆转之下,林冠英已经没有退路。虽然有卡巴星为他打官司,但是在只手遮天的大马政坛,真理是无法战胜邪恶的。

加上马哈迪已经将黑手伸入司法界,所有不听话的法官都被对付,连最高法院院长敦沙列阿巴斯都被马哈迪设法搞到被最高元首革职。取代沙列阿巴斯的阿都哈密,基本上是听命于那哈迪的指示办案。而总检察署更加完全是政府的人。法律已经成为对付善良人民百姓的工具。

经过长达4年的司法抗争,林冠英原本于1997年被判抵触煽动法令和印刷法令罪名成立,必须缴交罚款1万5千元。但是主控官不满判决,认为刑法太轻,要求重审。于是在1998年8月25日,被法庭宣判加重刑罚,必须入狱18个月。林冠英知道正义伸张无望,不得不面对不公不义的审判,接受入狱的判决。

这就是直到今天都令知道内情者愤愤不平,宣称《犯罪的人没事,伸张正义的人坐牢》的原因。由于在狱中表现良好,林冠英于1999年8月25日,在《烈火莫熄》的热潮中,光荣出狱。林冠英虽然遭受牢狱之灾,但是他也并非完全没有收获。

这起性丑闻官司为他增添不少政治资本和筹码。尤其重要的是,他的受难大大消除了马来社会对民主行动党的隔阂。许多马来人,尤其是年轻的马来人,对民主行动党的刻板印象已经大大改观。

1999年全国大选,由于林冠英刚刚出狱,按照选举法令规定,五年内他不能参与选举。行动党中央原本打算安排林冠英的妻子周玉清《代夫从军》出战马六甲市区国会选区。

但是由于马六甲州联委会的吴良山等人反对,最后改由党中央秘书长郭金福上阵马六甲市区国会议席;周玉清改到榴莲老温区竞选州议席。结果周玉清成功胜出,并且一再连任成功,加上2008年大选,周玉清已经连续三届中选为榴莲老温区州议员。

巫统霸权,马华堕落

2004年,因为国阵政权进行世代交替,马哈迪交棒阿都拉巴达维;阿都拉形象相对温和中庸;新人事新作风,全民都愿意给于阿都拉政权一个机会。结果2004年全国大选,国阵取得有史以来最辉煌的战绩,马华的国州议员也达到史无前例的多。大家对于阿都拉政权寄予厚望。

那年,行动党秘书长郭金福在马六甲市区守土失败,败给了马华无名小卒王乃志;而林吉祥则回到霹雳州,中选为怡保东区国会议员;重新回到国会担任反对党领袖。碍于五年不得竞选的期限未满,林冠英只能继续当行动党的助选员。郭金福大选落败之后宣布辞去党中央秘书长职位。林冠英因此接过领导棒子,自2005年起出任行动党秘书长至今。

由于林冠英被认定是林吉祥钦点的接班人,他在政治上必须有更为突出和显眼的政绩,才足以确认和加强他担任党魁的合法性。所谓突出的政绩,包括对外要能让行动党支持者看到他带给党新的气息;对内更要能让党员看到未来的新希望。当然,林冠英励精图治,表现并没有让人失望。

另一方面,阿都拉领导的国阵,尤其是巫统,自从2004年取得有史以来最辉煌的战绩之后,摆出一副嚣张跋扈,不可一世的嘴脸。他们个个患上大头症。其中以阿都拉的女婿凯利,巫统署理主席纳吉,巫青团长希山姆丁为首的少壮派,更加目中无人。

他们认为马来选票已经完全回流,人民公正党再也不足为患;华裔选民也已经唾弃行动党,重投马华怀抱;因此他们对于反对党不屑一顾;甚至自大到公开表明,巫统已经不再需要华人选票!

Good evening, everyone! From New Year’s Day to three days, three days and about Lim Kit Siang political and sea drifting recorded after the legend. Today, the “Cool heads tell us something about Lim Kit Siang’s son, Lim Guan Eng.
I know that Lim has a lot of fans, especially the younger generation of voters, especially beloved Lim. Voters like Lim Guan Eng, for really. Because he is expensive for the Chief Minister, but he is approachable, no head of airs. He Jieruchou deliberately created conflicts between all ethnic groups, social inequality, authority, never choose to be silent, but for the sound.
Although he suffered jail, but he regrets not shrink because of the brutal suppression. Lim Guan Eng today ruling Penang achievement, hard struggle for many years he and his father, hardships to the results. Talked Lim Kit Siang, followed by about Lim Guan Eng, I personally think that makes sense.
Lim Kit Siang and Lim Guan Eng, in the tradition of the family, the ideal of political struggle goals and implement the Action Party’s philosophy, every aspect has closely related to the pulse. The eldest son in the family, Lim Guan Eng, the father is already close to retirement, he must defend the crown, to take care of younger brothers and sisters, for the Lin family is flourishing. This, Lim Guan Eng is doing quite well. He and his wife Zhou Yuqing, who already had four children.
Action Party, the party, Lim Kit Siang has long been removed in 1995, the highest office of the Secretary-General of the party, passing on the baton Guo Jinfu, and then passed to Lim Guan Eng, the completion of the work of generational change. Lim Guan Eng has inherited the father’s tough style of work in the line of the struggle of the implementation of the Action Party, Lim Kit Siang can rest assured.
In the general trend of the development of the country’s political, Lim Guan Eng also live up to expectations, to help his father realize their dreams, in 308 national elections in 2008, the third generation of the Action Party led by young emerging army played in Penang, Penang regime overthrew the Barisan Nasional entrenched for 40 years. Following Boni, Lim Chong Eu and Koh Tsu Koon, Lim Guan Eng as Penang fourth Chinese Chief Minister.
Lim Guan Eng in Batu eye congressional districts selected, also the constituency of of Ah Yat cloth Davis State elected state legislators. Action Party, he led the army, has captured 19 state seats in Penang, teamed up with the Justice Party won nine state seats in the ruling Penang. 308 general election, Gerakan and MCA in Penang, annihilated, to lose even one seat none left. Penang MCA and Gerakan in the history of unprecedented.
Ruling of Penang, round heads of dream
Democratic Action Party won the biggest victory since the founding Action Party in the national election of 47 congressional seats, to select 28 seats (59.57% win ratio). Action Party in the State Legislative Assembly election nine states, 101 state seats, to select 73 seats (72.28% win ratio)! Action Party was able and Justice Party, the ruling Penang, and the coalition government in Selangor and Perak and Justice Party and the Muslim party organizations.
Perak NLD Party one year after Xu Yuefeng and two other Justice Party state legislators were bribed by the Barisan Nasional defection quit; resulting in the collapse of the Perak Pakatan Rakyat state government. Xu Yuefeng three acts and the dirty tricks of the Barisan Nasional, the Malaysian democracy add a large stain. The Perak Man regimes Barisan using dirty means hook or by crook, that is beside the point. We get down to business.
About Lim Guan Eng, built here to tell you about his background. Lim Guan Eng was born on December 8, 1961, birth place of Batu Pahat in Johor Palestinian jurisdiction. Native of Fujian Forestry Baoshan. Father was current Yibao Dong District Congressman. Mother Herbert Leung governance. Lim early primary and secondary education in Batu Pahat and Malacca.
Postgraduate then to Australia’s Monash University (Monash University), obtained a degree in economic accounting, and is a qualified accountant. Father nurtured under the long-term political philosophy, in 1982, when he was 21 years old, choose to join the Party of Democratic Action. And come back from Australia in 1983, he did not immediately join the political; but senior executives at the bank.
Father Lim Kit Siang launched the “Tanjung battle” in 1986, an expedition to Penang, Tanjung congressional districts challenge on behalf of the Dong Jiao Zong joined Gerakan, played the Tanjung parliamentary seats Koh Tsu Koon. Lim Kit Siang vacated Malacca urban congressional districts by Lim Guan Eng on behalf of the parent they defend their territory.
He live up to expectations, and MCA candidate to defeat Barisan 10,007 thousand majority in elected Malacca urban congressmen. That year, Lim Guan Eng was 25 years old. Lim Guan Eng inherited personalized father Jieruchou, he was the subject of many inequalities mince, and quickly became a thorn in the flesh of the National Front.
In 1987, the Ministry of Education sent are not fluent in the Chinese language teachers to serve small Chinese Higher Vocational, causing the Dong Jiao Zong stern protest. MCA then just spent Leung Chan, the party struggles, the Action Party hard-edged cutting-edge, unprecedented walked with Dong Jiao Zong jointly protest rally in Kuala Lumpur Tin Hau Temple. And announced that the Ministry of Education does not withdraw its proposal, the Dong Jiao Zong will commence strike action called on the affected Chinese small.
Dong Jiao Zong’s Action Party and the MCA the first time to come together move angered the UMNO, under the then leader of the UMNO Youth Nagy led, also in Kuala Lumpur Kg Baru Malay National People’s Congress rally held; threatened to Chinese blood cleaning Malay sword!
Twice imprisonment, hardships
The situation has evolved into a racial confrontation. Mahathir also just walked the UMNO AB team party struggles, UMNO is in need of some external event to unite the centripetal force of the Malaysian therefore acquiesced in its deliberately had simply fried education topics into racial issues, in order to transfer the UMNO because the party struggles The split between the line of sight. The boot Malaysian will be transferred to the Chinese who hate.
When the hatred between the Malaysian and Chinese UMNO people could continue to stir up trouble, seeing is about to run out of control, it is highly possible repeat of the tragedy of five hundred and thirteen, Mahathir commenced the vigorous the “thatched action” to spend The Internal Security Act, mass arrests of ethnic Chinese politicians and community leaders.
Lim Guan Eng and Lim Kit Siang and his son, there’s Action Party party must, together with Dong Jiao Zong Shen Mu Yu, Lin Fong-liter, Kejia Johnson, etc., are in jail. Off into the Pacific the Kamunting detained camp. Lim and his son’s Action Party leaders last two unconditional release. In total, they are shut up to 18 months.
In April 1989, to obtain the release of Lim Guan Eng, was elected Action Party Socialist Youth regiment officially open at the same time he fell in love with the English Star reporters in Malacca, Zhou Yuqing message. Were married in December of the same year.
1990, Lim Kit Siang launched the Tanjung two Battle “leading showdown the Penang bus when Kota defeated Lim Chong Eu, while successful veto the Penang Barisan 2/3 of the state legislature advantage; Lim also has 10,000 4 more than a majority vote of the successful re-election Malacca urban congressmen.
In 1994, Lim Guan Eng Kangshang Malacca Chief Minister Ibrahim light than Chek. Lim Guan Eng said publicly that he now has evidence of corruption Ibrahim.
He accused Ibrahim has a The unsolicited property up to $ 7 million 42 million; and has 10 to report to the Anti-Corruption Bureau. However, the Mahathir government under the control of the Anti-Corruption Bureau has not conducting an investigation, Lim very dissatisfied. Then, Lim Guan Eng, the mother of an underage girl received assistance accused Koshu heads involving adultery, sexual relations with the 15-year-old minor Malay girl.
Has never been a racist Lim Guan Eng, does not come for help Malay refused assistance. He decided behalf of a minor the Malay girls succeed, accused Ibrahim involve adultery. In accordance with the provisions of the Criminal Code in Malaysia, if any man have sexual relations with the under 16-year-old girl, regardless of whether the other party is voluntary, is illegal.
However, Lim Guan Eng absolutely did not think his sense of justice for minors succeed in Malay girl scandal involving sexual allegations Ibrahim, in return make himself into endless disaster. Although cases of sexual scandal successfully dealt a blow to the prestige of Ibrahim, under in Guanguanxianghu situation, Ibrahim not only official position is solid, not subject to any law to deal with. But is instead minors Malay girls succeed Lim from lawsuits.
First, Lim Guan Eng, the face of the Attorney General’s Office and the Sedition Act of 1948 filed a complaint against him, that he published false statements with intent to slander the reputation of the Chief Minister of Malacca. Lim allegedly printing and distributing leaflets additionally charged by the Attorney General’s Office to breach of the printing presses and Publications Act 1984.
Generous attempts succeed, Fanzao the betrayed
Beginning, Lim Guan Eng that all the charges against him, the charges are not established. Ibrahim with underage girls sex scandal, he has witnesses. The underage the Malays girl and her family are willing to stand up and testify against Ibrahim adultery. Later, however, the development of the situation, Lim Guan Eng’s big unexpected. The underage the Malays girl and her family is suddenly changed his tune in the court rejects the allegations of Ibrahim!
Later said that minors Malay girls and family only so changed to deny the allegations before they privately with Abdullah Hinda into a settlement agreement, made no small sum in compensation; condition that must be retracted in court.
Get a large sum of money in compensation under the underaged Malay girl’s family money eyes, unscrupulous, decided to comply with the secret agreement, retracted in court, overthrow all previous allegations. As a result, the trap that Lim in unrighteousness. Situation under the big reversal, Lim Guan Eng has no escape route. Although Karpal for his defense, but only fully Malaysian political arena, the truth can not be overcome evil.
Plus Mahathir has black hands stretching the judiciary, all disobedient judges are dealing with, even the President of the Supreme Court
敦沙列阿巴斯 Mahathir managed to get the Supreme Head of State dismissed. Replace 沙列阿巴斯 Abdul Hami, basically take orders from that Hadi instructions handling the case. The Attorney General’s Office more government. The law has become a tool of the people of the people in Fushan Liang.
After four years of judicial struggle, Lim Guan Eng, the original in 1997 and sentenced to contradict the Sedition Act and the Printing Act guilty, must pay a fine of 10,005 yuan. But prosecutor dissatisfied with the judgment that the criminal law too light, the request for reconsideration. So in the August 25, 1998, the court sentenced to increase the penalty must be 18 months’ imprisonment. Lim know justice and hopeless, had to face the injustice of the trial and judgment of imprisonment.
That is, until today, so know the inside story indignant, claiming that “the criminal’s right, the justice of the people in jail” reasons. On August 25, 1999 due to good performance in prison, Lim Guan Eng, “the Agni Mo quenching craze and glory of jail. Lim Guan Eng, although suffering from the jail, but he is not completely harvest.
The sexual scandals lawsuit for him to add a lot of political capital and chips. Particularly important, his crucifixion greatly eliminate of maleic social barriers of the Democratic Action Party. Malaysian, especially the young Malaysian, the stereotype of the Democratic Action Party has been greatly improved.
The 1999 national elections, Lim Guan Eng has just released from prison, in accordance with the Election Act provisions, within five years, he can not participate in the election. Action Party Central Committee had originally planned to arrange Lim Guan Eng’s wife, Zhou Yuqing Maldives army “played the Malacca urban congressional districts.
However, due to the Malacca State Joint Commission Wu Liang Mountain against, last changed by the CPC Central Committee and Secretary-General Guo Jinfu battle the Malacca urban congressional seats; Zhou Yuqing change to the the durian old temperature zone running for state seats. Results Zhou Yuqing successfully win and repeatedly re-election success, coupled with the 2008 general election, Zhou Yuqing has three consecutive elected the durian old Wen District state legislators.
UMNO hegemony, MCA Fallen
In 2004, because the National Front regime alternation of generations, Mahathir passing on the baton Abdullah Badawi; the relatively mild moderation Abdullah image; new personnel and new style, all the people are willing to give the the Abdullah regime a chance to. The results of the 2004 national elections, the National Front made the most brilliant record, the MCA state legislators reached unprecedented. We have high hopes for Abdullah’s regime.
That year, the Action Party Secretary General Guo Jinfu Malacca city to defend their territory failed, lost to the MCA nobody Nai Chi; Lim Kit Siang is returned to Perak, in elected Yi Baodong Congressman; back to Congress to serve as the leader of the opposition. Because under the age of five may not campaign period, Lim Guan Eng can only continue when the Action Party campaign workers. Guo Jinfu announced his resignation from the post of Secretary-General of the CPC Central Committee after the general election defeat. Lim took over the leadership of the stick so far served as the Secretary-General of the Action Party since 2005.
Lim Guan Eng was identified Lim Kit Siang’s hand-picked successor, he must be politically more prominent and conspicuous achievements, was enough to confirm the legitimacy of the party leader and strengthen that he served as. The so-called outstanding achievements, including foreign To make Action Party supporters see him bring the party breath; internally to allow party members to see a new hope for the future. Of course, Lim Guan Eng, good governance, the performance did not disappoint.
Abdullah-led National Front, on the other hand, especially UMNO, since the most brilliant results achieved in 2004, assumed an arrogant and despotic, the face of the mighty. They were all suffering from a big disease. Young Turks, led by Abdullah’s son-in-law, Kelly UMNO Acting main Xi Naji, head of UMNO Youth Hishammuddin Muding more defiant.
Malay ballot papers have been completely reflux, the People’s Justice Party, never less than infestation; the Chinese voters spurned Action Party to rejoin Ma Huahuai hold; therefore their disdain for the opposition; Even so arrogant as to openly express, UMNO is no longer Requires ballot Chinese!

当华社要求国阵政府兑现大选承诺,批准增建华小,和承认独中统考文凭的时候,巫统一张张狰狞的嘴脸纷纷浮上台面!他们使用过去几十年来惯用的手法,将华社的诉求统统往种族主义的方向带,浑然忘记了当初大选时候对华社许下的承诺。许多《滚回中国论》,《华裔寄居论》,《故意挑战土着特权论》纷纷出炉。

在巫统党中央代表大会上,巫青团长希山姆丁公然针对华社发表极端挑衅的言论,高高举起马来剑,扬言《誓死捍卫马来人特权》,《不惜流尽最后一滴血》云云。仿佛就是马来人的守护神了。

问题是,是谁挑起马来人特权威胁论?是华人吗?不是。是印度人吗?也不是。故意挑起马来人特权威胁论的人,就是巫统自己。他们在表演着《做贼喊捉贼》的年度烂戏!600万华社人民看在眼里,恨在心里;点滴在心头!

当年,得到史无前例大胜,国州议员多达108位的马华,政治力量应该是比过去任何时候都要强大才是;如此鼎盛的阵容,按理来说,应该很有地位和影响力协助华社向政府争取公平待遇才对!可惜,当我们年对巫统少壮派无理挑衅打压的时候。我们看到的,是一个唯唯诺诺,只会逢迎主人巫统的应声虫!

对于以上各种《寄居论》,《滚回中国论》,《举剑论》,马华不但不敢代表华人说句公道话,甚至还奴颜卑膝的对着主子哈腰驼背!华社给了马华有史以来最强大的支持力量,谁也没有想到,得到的回报竟然是这样。绝大多数的华裔选民,真正对马华死了心!

在槟城,民政党的处境也和马华大同小异。尤其是槟州巫统拥有超过半数州议席,讲话特别大声,公然对着首长许子根呼呼喝喝,许子根任何施政,都必须先看巫统的脸色。简单的说,许子根只是一个傀儡首长!

反风大起,骄兵必败

华社的不满情绪渐渐升高,巫统则继续选择与华社为敌。马华与民政却没有一个敢代表华社开声反驳。这种不满情绪累积到了308大选,终于向山洪一样爆发了!

对于当时的政治情势,林吉祥,林冠英是有所领悟,知道行动党追寻多年的政治理想,在2008年全国大选,看到了一线曙光。果然,卧薪尝胆多年,受尽痛苦磨炼的林冠英,重新出发,便取得了连他自己都不敢置信的战绩!

Xinhua News Agency, the BN government to honor election promises to approve the increase Jianhua small, and a diploma in recognition of UEC, UMNO’s a picture of the grim countenance have surfaced! They use the usual tactics of the past few decades, all the aspirations of the Chinese community to the direction of racism with totally forgotten had promised general election, when China social commitment. Many “go back to China ‘,” Chinese sojourn’, “deliberately challenge the privileges of indigenous theory have baked.
In the the UMNO Party Central Committee’s Congress, the head of UMNO Youth Hishammuddin Muding openly for the Chinese community extreme provocation remarks, Malay sword aloft and threatened to “fight to the death to defend the prerogative of the Malaysian”, “not hesitate to shed the last drop blood “and so on. If that is the patron saint of the Malaysian.
The question is, who started the Malaysian privileged threat theory? Chinese do? Not. Indians it? It is not. Deliberately provoke the Malaysian privileges threat theory is that UMNO own. They’re playin ‘annual “stop thief” rotten drama! 6000000 Chinese community people see in the eyes, hate in their hearts; drip in my heart!
Then obtained an unprecedented victory, the national state legislators as many as 108 MCA political forces should be powerful than it has ever been is; heyday lineup, logically speaking, should be very position and influence to help the Chinese community to fight for fair treatment should! Unfortunately, when UMNO Young Turks unreasonably provocative suppress. We see a submissive, only flatter the masters of UMNO’s yes-man!
“Sojourn ‘All of the above,” go back to China’, “Jujian ‘MCA only did not dare to represent the Chinese to be fair, even against the masters stoop knee Nuyan humble hunchback! Chinese community to the the MCA most powerful support force, no one would have thought, get in return turned out to be the case. The vast majority of Chinese voters, really dead MCA heart!
In Penang Gerakan situation is also and MCA or less the same. Penang UMNO seats, with more than half of the state speech particularly loud whirring drink openly against the heads of Koh Tsu Koon Koh Tsu Koon, the policy must look at UMNO’s face. Simply put, the Koh Tsu Koon is just a puppet heads of!
Anti-wind from Jiaobingbibai
The discontent of the Chinese community gradually increased, UMNO enemies continue to choose the Chinese community. MCA with the Home did not dare on behalf of the Chinese community to open sound rebuttal. This discontent accumulated to 308 general election, and finally broke out to the flash floods, like!
For the political situation at the time, Lim Kit Siang, Lim Guan Eng senses know Action Party pursuing years of political ideals, and national elections in 2008, saw a glimmer of hope. Sure enough, the hardships for many years, suffered painful tempered Lim Guan Eng, a new start, and made himself staggering record!

林吉祥再次中选霹雳州怡保东区国会议员;林冠英不但成功当选为槟州峇眼国会议员,也拿下了阿逸布爹州议席!行动党在槟州总共赢得19个州议席,加上人民公正党的9席,终于成功推翻国阵江山,取得槟州执政权!

2008年3月11日,林冠英到槟州元首府,向州元首敦阿都拉曼阿巴斯宣誓就任槟州第四任首席部长;掀开了槟州政坛崭新的一页。从政治阶下囚,到出任槟州首席部长,林冠英用了8年的时间。他在面对媒体访问的时候,带着开玩笑的语气说他自己是《铁窗首长》。

马来西亚2008年的308大选,改变了很多人的命运。林冠英可能是获益最多的人之一。一夕之间从一介平民跃升为槟城首席部长,其父林吉祥发动丹绒三役(三届大选强攻槟城)未竟的梦想,居然由第一次在槟城参选的林冠英实践。行动党(火箭)连过去只能当炮灰的候选人都当选,非常振奋人心。

行动党,公正党和回教党之所以大胜,成功否决国阵2/3多数议席优势,很大的程度上,是国阵自作孽!如果不是因为2004年大选的压倒性胜利让国阵领导人产生错觉,以为国阵从此可以鱼肉百姓,任意欺负非土着,肆意打压反对的声音,更加名目张胆的贪污滥权,甚至打压回教以外的宗教的话,国阵应该不至于如此失败。

而马华和民政之所以一败涂地,被华裔选民唾弃,绝对可以说是咎由自取。他们都辜负了华社的期望。华社将支持力量给了马华和民政,他们却利用华人的支持力量为自己谋取更大的政治利益,置华社的基本诉求于不顾。他们兵败如山倒,就是华社展现了发泄愤怒的结果。

从308到今天,已经过了快4年,林冠英治理下的槟州,取得了令人赞叹的成果。之前一些人总觉得林冠英仰赖父荫,只是另一个政坛第二代。然而,四年看下来,林冠英确实有一套,说不定他会是开创马来西亚未来的政坛要角之一。

槟州是大马唯一由华人出任首长的州属,首席部长向来备受华文报章媒体关爱,槟城点滴总是被放大。这回行动党首次入主州政府,更是三千宠爱集一身。虽然某些巫统的招数令人喷饭,比如退回一年100马币的老人津贴,据说那是赌博税,不洁,穆斯林不能领;还有,巫统怂恿光大狂人到处扰乱,飚车党公然对抗州政府。 。 。 。

然而,由于巫统一再挑衅,却造就了林冠英成为最常上头条的州首长,比内阁部长还风光。我们甚至怀疑行动党有人在巫统卧底,否则,玩那些让自己看起来很蠢的把戏,真能伤到林冠英吗?

林冠英高调地推动减塑,从周一无塑胶袋日开始,除了多次于媒体呼吁,并在实施前办了好多座谈会、说明会等,连外坡的人民都知道。

国阵虚情假意,民联真心诚意

执政并非只靠一张嘴,若提出一套完整的方案,加上首长直接与民众面对面沟通,除了宣导政策,亦可由民众的回应修正不足之处,然后再正式实施。这是很好的方式,政策成功的机率必然较高,可惜国阵很少官员懂得,或者愿意这么做。

槟城的周一无塑胶袋日非常成功,过了几个月扩大为三日,之后雪州仿效。不知羞耻为何物的马华这时跳出来,表示政府早已提倡减塑,林冠英不该揽功。问题是之前只停留在口头说说。后来中央正式公布周六无塑胶袋,就是公布而已,其他好像什么也没做。一再证明马华只会邀功不会做事。

去年林冠英提名五位资深清沟夫封PJK,受封者个个受宠若惊,笑容灿烂。虽有国阵方面有些杂音,说此举贬损封衔价值,但一般人民觉得,人家多年来不畏脏臭清沟,确实对槟城贡献良多,封一个PJK不为过。

受封的清沟夫现身说法,让大家了清沟的危险与辛苦,官员又在旁边加了句,希望民众别乱丢垃圾,增加清沟夫的工作负担。如果说这只是一场秀,那么,这是一场完整的政治秀,表扬清沟夫同时教育人民,这种政治秀非常成功。

槟城地狭人稠,是大马人口密度最高的州属,在国阵掌权的年代,曾号称垃圾州,脏名远播,垃圾显然是大问题,加上旅游业又是槟州重要产业,林冠英首长以整治环境为施政重点,似乎是正确的选择。相比国阵许多惠民政策只说不做,槟州民联政府在这方面讲到做到,确实赢了国阵几条街。

事实上,国阵中央政府目前正在抄袭槟州和雪州政府的惠民政策,包括发放100元给小学生,发放500元给每月收入低于3000元的家庭等等。虽然摆明就是抄袭,但毕竟对人民有好处,因此民联也表示欢迎。

奈何,国阵的马华和民政习惯了几十年来的作秀邀功陋习。宣布派发500元的时候,不但规定所有受惠者必须在会场聆听马华地方领袖发表自我宣传的废话,而且往往一讲就是半个小时,自己讲自己爽;还要一些民众在烈日下枯站半天。这种举动,其实只会弄巧反拙,更加增添人民的怨恨之心。看来,马华和民政直到今天,还是不明白人民要的是什么。

比如国阵派发500元援助金,受惠的民众却面无表情;反而林冠英只是派发区区100元援助金,竟然就有妇女感动得抱住林冠英的脚,感激涕零。为什么会这样?答案很简单:人民要感受的,是当政者是否真心。

国阵派发援助金,背后明显是有隐议程,一心只想骗取人民的选票,并非出于真心为人民。(看看马华代表喜欢在派钱之前上台为自己和马华歌功颂德的嘴脸就知道了)相反的,林冠英心中有人民, 不像国阵口口声声要人民感恩;民联发出的回馈金,是感恩人民对国家社会的贡献。两者之间的差别太大了。而这一点,是国阵的巫统,马华,民政党永远不会懂的。

2012年,人民普遍相信将是第13届全国大选年。人民也普遍看好民联可以保住槟州政权。甚至相信民联有机会迈向布城。

2012年开春,林冠英对于来届全国大选发表了他的看法:

他说:《2012年被推测为大选年,对党内,我期许是枪口对外,不是向内;而对国家政局,我们这些国会在野领袖的目标当然是迈向布城。》

林冠英说:要入主布城,改朝换代,民联就得把东马沙巴及砂拉越的现有2个国会议席,增至18席才有执政布城的希望。他深信,民联能够比国阵做得更好。

林冠英说:若民联能够执政布城,民联会送上《执政三大礼》,即:

1)废除所有已经赚钱的大道收费(目前有5条大道,即南北大道、中环公路、马新第二通道、北海居林高速公路及槟城大桥),因管理公司已回本;至于尚未取回投资额的大道,则不允许提高过路费或延长收费期限;

2)不再继续津贴独立发电厂,反之,将政府现阶段年度津贴的200亿令吉,用来分给老百姓, 包括每年回馈再生能源基金10亿令吉,协助太阳能和再生能源的发展;

3)降低所有统制品售价。如糖、米、油。过去,当这些必需品由私人商家控制时,涨幅只是轻微的,但是政府一接管,就暴涨。只有控制统制品价格,人民生活负担才能减轻。

谈到308之后,有人说民联没有执政经验时,林冠英这样说:《我也没有贪污滥权的经验啊!》

他说:《我深信我们比国阵更好。槟州在2010年获得史上首次最高投资额, 执政之后财政年年有余,债务也成功减了95%、我们的财务管理获得总稽查司的点名称赞、我们的廉洁获得国际透明组织的表扬(这可是马来西亚首个给国际透明组织称赞的州属)。

虽然我们施政的经验只有4年,却比国阵的51年更强、更棒。希望下届大选,不管是落在何时,我们还能够继续做出成绩,让人民看到、摸到、感觉到。我也时时自我警惕:〈打江山难,守江山更难〉。成功与否,一切视队伍的团队精神。

天时地利固然重要,但人和却是挺进布城的关键所在。要是人心不和,就败事有余了。面对大选年,只要我们团结一致,就能够执政更多州属,甚至是向布城挺进。民联执政中央的愿望,会不会实现?且拭目以待。

《铁窗首长林冠英》讲到这里,已经结束。谢谢大家捧场。晚安了!各位!再见。

发表在 铁窗首长林冠英, 馬來西亞的真實歷史

发表评论

Lim Kit Siang again selected Perak Yibao Dong District congressman; Lim Guan Eng is not only successfully elected as Penang’s Batu eye congressmen, and also won the the Ah Yat cloth Davis State seats! Action Party won a total of 19 state seats in Penang, with 9 seats in the People’s Justice Party, and finally succeeded in overthrowing Barisan jiangshan, made Penang ruling rights!
March 11, 2008, Lim Guan Eng to Penang capital of Pertua Dune Abdul Rahman Abbas was sworn in as the fourth Chief Minister of Penang; opened a new page in Penang political arena. From political prisoner to act as the Chief Minister of Penang, Lim Guan Eng, with a time of 8 years. He said with a joking tone in the face of media access he is “Cool heads.
308 general election in Malaysia in 2008, changed the fate of many people. Lim Guan Eng is probably one of the most benefit. Suddenly jumped from the ordinary citizen as the Chief Minister of Penang, his father, Lim Kit Siang launch Tanjung Battle (third general election storm Penang) unfinished dream, actually practice by the first election in Penang, Lim Guan Eng. Action Party (rocket) candidates are elected with the past can only serve as cannon fodder, very exciting.
Action Party, the reason why the Justice Party and the Islamic Party victory, successfully vetoed a 2/3 majority of seats in the National Front advantage, to a large extent on the BN regret! If not for the landslide victory in the 2004 election for the leader of the National Front have a misconception that the National Front from oppressing any bully non-indigenous, wanton suppress dissenting voices more Zhang Dan corruption and abuse of power, and even to suppress Islam outside religion, the National Front should not be such a failure.
And the reason why the MCA and the Home suffered a crushing defeat, the Chinese voters spurned can definitely say is to blame. They have to live up to the expectations of the Chinese community. Will support the strength of the Chinese community to the MCA and the Home, they are making use of the Chinese support the interests of greater political power for their own personal set of the basic demands of the expense of the Chinese community. They never led, is to show the results to vent their anger in the Chinese community.
From 308 to today, has been almost four years, and the Penang Lim governance, achieved impressive results. Before, some people always feel that Lim Guan Eng rely on parent Yum just another political arena, the second generation. However, four years looking down, Lim Guan Eng does have a, maybe he will, is to create the future of one of the political arena, key players in Malaysia.
Penang is Malaysia’s only Chinese directorate states the case, the Chief Minister has always been popular Chinese newspapers and media care, Penang drip always be enlarged. Back Action Party took over state government for the first time, more Sexing set a. Although some UMNO tricks hilarious returned 100 ringgit a year such as old age allowance, said that gambling tax, unclean, Muslims can not collar; There, UMNO encouraged the Everbright Madman everywhere disrupt, car Biao Party defy State Government. . . .
However, because of the Umno provocation, but created a Lim Heads of state of the most common on the headlines, cabinet ministers scenery. We even suspect’s Action Party was undercover in UMNO, otherwise, play themselves look stupid trick, really hurt to Lim Guan Eng?
Lim Guan Eng, a high-profile drive less plastic, no plastic bag day from Monday, except in the media several times called on to do a lot of the forum before implementation, briefings, and even the outer slope of the people know.
Barisan hypocrites, NLD sincerely
Mouth govern alone will not put forward a complete package, together with the heads of direct face-to-face communication with the public, can also be corrected by the response of the people in addition to the promotion policy, inadequacies, and then the formal implementation. This is a good way, the probability of success of the policy will certainly be higher, Unfortunately, few Barisan officials know how, or are willing to do so.
Penang Monday plastic bag-free day was very successful, and a few months later was expanded to three days after Selangor emulate. Shameless what MCA jump out, said the government has long advocated less plastic, Lim Guan Eng should not embrace the power. Before only stay in the lip. Later, the Central Committee officially announced Saturday without a plastic bag, is announced., The other as if did not do anything. Repeatedly proved that the MCA will only take credit for not doing things.
Last year, Lim Guan Eng nominate five senior the Qing ditch husband closure PJK glimpse of all flattered brilliant smile. Although the Barisan Nasional some noise, said the move derogatory seal the title value, but generally the people think, people afraid of dirty, smelly ditch clearance over the years, indeed Penang contribution, sealed a PJK not.
Glimpse of the Qing ditch husband own experiences, the the clear ditch the dangerous and hard, the officials added in the next sentence, the hope people Bieluan taking out the trash, increase Qing ditch husband’s work burden. If this is just a show, then, this is a complete political show recognition of the clear ditch husband at the same time educate the people, the very success of this political show.
Penang densely populated, the Malaysian states with the highest population density in the case, in the era of the National Front took power, once known as junk state, the dirty name spread far and wide, garbage is obviously a big problem, together with Penang tourism is an important industry Lim heads to improve our environment, as the policy focus seems to be the right choice. Compared to the number of farmer-friendly policy of the National Front only saying no, Penang Pakatan Rakyat government in this regard mentioned do indeed win the National Front a few blocks.
In fact, the central government of the National Front is plagiarism Penang and Selangor, farmer-friendly policy of the government, including the payment of 100 yuan to primary school students, paid 500 yuan to a monthly income of less than 3,000 yuan family. Made clear that plagiarism, but, after all, will benefit the people, the NLD also welcome.
Nonetheless, the National Front of the MCA and the Home accustomed to decades of putting on a show to claim credit bad habits. The declared 500 yuan, not only requires all beneficiaries must be at the venue to listen to MCA local leaders released a self-promotional nonsense, and often one speaking for half an hour, they speak their own cool; but also some of the people in the hot sun dry station half a day . Such a move, in fact, will only be counter-productive, adding more of the heart of the people’s resentment. It seems that until today, the MCA and the Home, or do not understand what the people want.
Such as the National Front distributed 500 yuan relief fund to benefit its people are deadpan; contrary, Lim Guan Eng is only distributed to a mere 100 yuan relief fund, turned out there are women moved clinging to the feet of Lim Guan Eng, feel grateful. Why is that? The answer is simple: people want to feel, is whether those in power really.
To distribute assistance to the National Front, behind the obvious is a hidden agenda, one would like to cheat the people’s votes, not because really for the people. (See MCA representatives like singing the praises of the face for themselves and MCA came to power before handing out money to know), Lim Guan Eng, the hearts of the people, unlike Barisan keeps the people Thanksgiving; the NLD issued by Rakeback Thanksgiving People’s contribution to the national society. The difference between the two is too large. , BN UMNO, MCA, Gerakan never understand.
In 2012, the people generally believe will be the 13th national election year. People are generally optimistic about the NLD can keep Penang regime. Even believe the NLD have the opportunity to move towards Putrajaya.
2012 spring, Lim Guan Eng expressed his views for the coming national elections:
He said: “2012 has been speculated for the election year, within the party, my expectations muzzle foreign, not inward;, the goal of these congressional opposition leaders towards Putrajaya, the country’s political situation. ‘
Lim Guan Eng said: White Putrajaya, regime change, the NLD must East the Ma Shaba and Sarawak existing two congressional seats to 18 seats only govern the hope of Putrajaya. He was convinced that the NLD can do a better job than the National Front.
Lim Guan Eng said: the NLD govern Putrajaya, Resident Association sent the three ruling gift “, that:
1) by repealing all profitable toll charges (5 Avenue North and South Avenue, Central Road, the horse new second channel, Lin Expressway, the North Sea Habitat and Penang Bridge), due to the management company has recovered; does not yet take back to the Avenue of the investment, is not allowed to raise tolls or extend the toll period;
2) no longer continue the subsidy independent power plants, on the contrary, the Government’s current annual allowance of RM20 billion, used to give to people, including feedback Renewable Energy Fund annually RM1 billion to assist in the development of solar and renewable energy;
3) reduce the price of all system products. Such as sugar, rice, oil. In the past, when these necessities are controlled by private businesses, or only slightly, but the government is a take over on the skyrocketing. Only the control system products prices, in order to alleviate the burden of the people’s living.
Comes to 308, it was said that the NLD did not experience in governance, Lim said: “I do not have to corruption and abuse of power experience! ‘
He said: “I am confident that we are better than the National Front. Penang in 2010 for the first time in the history of the highest amount of investment, the ruling after fiscal year more than the debt also successfully reduced by 95%, our financial management to obtain total division of the Auditor praised our honest praise of Transparency International ( This is the first in Malaysia to Transparency International praised the states).
Although the experience of our policy of only four years, more than 51 years of the National Front, the better. Hope that the next general election, the fall when we can continue to make achievements, let the people see, touch, feel. I also constantly self-vigilance: <DaJiangShan difficult to keep country more difficult>. Success, all as the team’s esprit de corps.
The right place at the right time is important, and is advancing Putrajaya key. If people do not and, more failures than successes. The face of the election year, as long as we are united, we can govern more states, or even advance to Putrajaya. NLD Party Central desire will not be realized? Wait and see.
Behind bars heads of Lim Guan Eng, “talked about here, is over. Thank you all join. Good night! You! Goodbye.

《林吉祥外一章:铁汉也有柔情》

作者

“Lim Kit Siang outside chapter: Hud also have tenderness”
JAN 26
Of the voice of justice

大家晚上好!张某受陈同前辈所托,为《林吉祥政海浮沉录》进行外一章的补充。

主要是因为陈同前辈觉得,《林吉祥政海浮沉录》没有讲述到林吉祥的家庭,是一个遗憾。因此,陈同前辈认为,在连续三天的主题开讲之后,应该补充一则有关林吉祥家居生活的点滴,才算完美。陈同前辈叫到,张某当然义不容辞,欣然接下任务。看过陈同前辈连续三天开讲《林吉祥政海浮沉录》之后,相信大家对林吉祥先生的政途经历,已经有一个具体的印象了。

但是,对于他私底下的家庭生活,相信了解的人还是有限。因此,张某的任务,就是为大家揭开他私底下的生活风貌。这里有一个蛮有趣的对比:林吉祥和蔡细历,谁对老婆比较忠诚?相信大家心中早就有答案了!单单看蔡细历的偷情五级色情光碟就知道,说起对老婆的忠诚,对孩子的身教和言教,蔡细历都输林吉祥几条街!

林吉祥和太太梁玉治,相知相许,相扶相伴超过50年。50年来,林吉祥为了政治理想奔波全国,接触的群众何止千万?由于他独特的政治魅力和俊朗的外表,他拥有无数的女性粉丝,是很自然的事。但是,从不曾听说林吉祥背着太太,闹出过任何绯闻。当然,类似Batu Pahat Katerina酒店1304号房的那种荒唐的偷情行为,更是绝对不会发生在林吉祥身上。

每个成功男人背后都有个女人,这句话形容林吉祥与太太梁玉治最贴切。梁玉治是个普通家庭主妇,多年来都在家打理家务、照顾孩子。但若深入了解,就会发现这名平凡的女人,其实一点也不平凡。林吉祥早年受过华文教育,在高中时期也到夜校继续学习中文,他在那里认识了梁玉治。开始的时候,俩人只是点头之交,直到毕业后再见面,才开始谈恋爱,而且,很快的,两人决定厮守终身。

林吉祥18岁就娶了梁玉治为妻子。林吉祥生下第一个孩子时才19岁,这个孩子就是林冠英。20岁时带着妻儿到新加坡,接着诞下两个女儿。在梁玉治的记忆中,林吉祥在新加坡当记者时,虽然白天非常忙碌,晚上多数会留在家帮忙照顾孩子,日子一天天过去,直到林吉祥决定当蒂凡那的政治秘书后,才举家搬到吉隆坡。

梁玉治不曾想过丈夫会从政,当她知道丈夫决定放弃电台新闻编辑这份高薪及稳定的工作时,她感到非常惊讶。在那个60年代,普通受薪阶级的月薪只是区区100元左右,林吉祥在新加坡电台担任高职,月入已经高达千元。可是,梁玉治并没有提出任何异议,心想即使反对也改变不了丈夫的决定,就给予全力支持。此后,林吉祥就开始忙于政治,比在新加坡的日子更忙,经常数天不回家。但是基于对丈夫的绝对信任,林夫人毫无条件地支持丈夫所做的一切。

梁玉治回忆说:《当年蒂凡那在八打灵再也租下独立式房子作党总部后,我们一家人就住在那里的其中一间房间。那时吉祥经常一个人开车外出,清早出门至深夜才回家,我常常担心他精神不足。》

在梁玉治眼中,丈夫唯一的嗜好就是阅读,只要丈夫在家她都会煮饭,丈夫若要出远门,她就会替他收拾行李,丈夫对吃的穿的都没有要求。林吉祥身上穿着平坦整齐的衬衫,都是太太用心所烫。一家人的生活过得很简朴,林吉祥让太太全权打理家中的事,梁玉治也全力做到最好,让丈夫能毫无后顾之忧地在外为政治理想而打拚。

林吉祥有收集剪报的习惯,至今还收着数不清的剪报,其实这些剪报全是梁玉治一张张细心地剪下。他看报纸时,会把要留下的新闻圈起来,然后放在一旁。林夫人有空时就会拿出自制的浆糊,把剪报贴在白纸上。为了方便丈夫日后阅读,她还会用手掌把报纸压得贴贴服服,直到今天,她的孩子及孙子都还记得她那双黑黑的,沾满报纸油墨的手掌。林吉祥从不打骂孩子。

林吉祥在五一三事件被扣留,每一次探监时,看着丈夫从监狱牢房内赤脚走出来,那消瘦的身影,梁玉治看在眼里,痛在心里。梁玉治回忆五一三事件的时候说:《吉隆坡戒严时,我在电话里叫他不要回来,结果他还是回来了,结果一下飞机,就被逮捕了。》

梁玉治说:《那时孩子还很小,婆家及娘家都在柔佛,我们又不能出门,只能在家等消息。一直到能见他时,我马上带着鸡汤去看他,他和我说没事、会好好照顾自己,我才比较安心。》

她说:《后来他被带到麻坡,我带着孩子搬回峇株巴辖,每星期带必需品、食物和书本探望他。他被释放时没人通知我们,他自己搭德士回家,我们很开心,一家人总算能团圆了。》

Good evening, everyone! Zhang by Chen entrusted with the older, “Lin Jixiang Zheng Hai drifting recorded outside chapter supplement.
Chen with predecessors feel, “the Lin Ji Xiangzheng sea drifting recorded” is not about Lim Kit Siang family is a pity. Chen with the older generation that, after three consecutive days of theme lecture, you should add a bit about the home life of Lim Kit Siang considered perfect. Chen called with the older generation, Zhang could I refuse, I am pleased to take over the task. Seen Chen lecture “Lin Ji Xiangzheng sea drifting recorded for three consecutive days with their predecessors, I believe we have a specific experience of the political career of Mr. Lin Jixiang impression.
However, for his private family life, I believe that the understanding of the people are still limited. Thus, Zhang’s task is to uncover his private life style for everyone. Here’s a pretty interesting contrast: Lim Kit Siang and Dr Chua, who is more loyal to his wife? I believe the hearts of everyone long answer! Simply by looking at the the betrayal five pornographic VCDs Chua know talking about the loyalty of his wife, children teach by example and precept, Chua lose Lim Kit Siang few blocks!
Lim Kit Siang and Mrs. Herbert Leung governance, knowing each other relative to expectations, accompanied by more than 50 years of catching. 50 years, Lim Kit Siang for political ideal to run around the country, at least 10 million of the contact with the masses? Due to his unique political charm and handsome looks, he has countless female fans, is a very natural thing. However, never heard that Lim Kit Siang carrying his wife, sudden, any scandal. Of course, the kind of absurd behavior of betrayal like Batu Pahat Katerina Hotel 1304 Room, more is definitely not occur in Lim Kit Siang body.
Behind every successful man has a woman, the most appropriate sentence to describe Lim Kit Siang, and Mrs. Herbert Leung governance. Herbert Leung governance is an ordinary housewife, housework at home over the years to take care of the children. However, if the depth of understanding, you will find this extraordinary woman, and that was not extraordinary. Lim Kit Siang have received Chinese language education in the early years in high school also went to night school to continue learning Chinese, where he met Herbert Leung governance. Started when two people just nodding acquaintance meet until after graduation, began to fall in love, and, soon, they decided to be together forever.
Lim Kit Siang married a 18-year-old Herbert Leung governance as a wife. Lim Kit Siang is only 19 years old gave birth to their first child, this child is Lim Guan Eng. Singapore with his wife and children to the age of 20, then gave birth to two daughters. Herbert Leung governance of memory, Lim Kit Siang When a reporter in Singapore, although very busy during the day and night will mostly stay at home to help care for the children, the days passed, until after Lim Kit Siang decide when Tiffany was political secretary, before his family moved to Kuala Lumpur.
Herbert Leung governance husband would have never thought of politics, when she knew her husband decided to give up this high-paying and stable radio news editor, she was very surprised. The monthly salary of ordinary wage earners in the 1960s, only a mere 100 yuan, Lim Kit Siang in Singapore Radio senior positions, and a monthly income of up to thousands. However, Herbert Leung rule does not raise any objections, thinking that even if the opposition also can not change her husband’s decision to give full support. Since then, Lim Kit Siang began busy with politics than the busier days in Singapore, often did not come home for several days. But based on absolute trust of her husband, Ms. Lin unconditionally support the husband has done.
Herbert Leung governance recalled: “When Tiffany that Petaling never rented the detached house party headquarters, our family came and dwelt in one of the rooms. Then auspicious often drive out, to go out early in the morning to late in the evening to go home, I often worried about his spirit. ‘
Herbert Leung governance in the eyes, only her husband’s hobby is reading, as long as her husband at home, she would cook, husband to a faraway place, she will pack up for him, husband to eat are not required to wear. Lim Kit Siang flat wearing neat shirt, are Mrs. intentions are hot. A person’s life is very simple, Lim Kit Siang full care of things at home and let his wife, Herbert Leung governance also do my best so that her husband will have no worries outside political ideals and hard work.
Lim Kit Siang habit of collecting newspaper clippings, and has also received numerous newspaper clippings, in fact, these clippings all a picture of Herbert Leung governance Cut carefully. When he read the newspaper, will want to leave journalism, then set aside. Ms. Lin spare time will come up with a homemade paste, to clippings paste on white paper. In order to facilitate future husband read her will with the palm of the newspaper the weight of Veg wear clothes, until today, her children and grandchildren remember her black newspaper ink-stained hands. Lim Kit Siang never cursed child.
Lim Kit Siang was detained for five hundred thirteen events every visit him, watched her husband to barefoot to come out from the prison cell that thin figure, Herbert Leung governance see in the eyes, pain in my heart. Herbert Leung governance memories of the events of five hundred thirteen: “Kuala Lumpur, martial law, the phone I told him to not come back, the results came back a result, the plane was arrested. ‘
Governance Herbert Leung said: “At the time the child is still very young, my husband and her parents are in Johor, we can not go out, only at home, and other news. Has been to see him, I’ll be right with chicken soup to see him, him and I said all right, will take good care of myself, I was more at ease. ‘
She said: “Later, he was taken to Muar, I took my children to move back to Batu Pahat with necessities, food and books of the week to visit him. Nobody notice us when he was released, he take a taxi home, we are very happy, the family finally reunited. ‘

18年后,1987年,林吉祥和林冠英父子俩在茅草行动中,再一次被扣留时,由于孩子们都已长大,梁玉治因有女儿在身边,才不至于太难过。梁玉治说,她特别感谢霹雳州的两名党元老骆瑞珍及江灼成医生,在她与两名女儿每星期北上甘文丁扣留营探望丈夫和儿子的时候,让她们在家里过夜。

林吉祥从1965年从政,迄今47载,梁玉治一直在背后默默支持。外界对丈夫的批评与谩骂,林夫人初时觉得很心痛,不过日子久了,也麻木了。梁玉治形容这名政治巨人在家是一名好丈夫,从不带政治回家,也不骂孩子。到今日为止,梁玉治依然每晚守在电话旁,等丈夫拨电话回家聊两句。

梁玉治说:《我以丈夫为荣,也希望家里的人能平安健康。》

长女林慧敏:他很宽容慈祥

林吉祥的女儿,林冠英的二妹林慧敏说,她无论是精神或情感上都以父亲作榜样,以大哥位楷模,做个永不言弃及谦卑的人。

林慧敏说:《爸爸是个很简单的人,只要满足家人需求,钱对他而言并不重要。他热爱阅读,相信知识是力量,他不断告诉我们教育的重要性。去逛街时,他都会带我们到书店。》

父亲在慧敏眼中是个充满毅力的人,尽管面对种种打压、媒体的恶意中伤甚至是被扣留,还是会坚持奋斗。

林慧敏说:《他经常告诉我们,没有事情会永远保持不变,而且以后会变得更好。他经常被人指为独裁、自私及骄傲的人。只有真正认识他的人才知道,这些指责并非事实,他是一个友善、谦虚及和蔼可亲的人,与报章所形容的完全不同。》

《他为人宽容,纵然经历这么多风雨,他及哥哥在内安法令下被扣丶哥哥被判抵触煽动及印刷法令而坐牢,他都没有对马哈迪怀恨在心,因为他认为,这些只是政治的一部分;是大马政治生态大环境造成的,所以他不埋怨任何掌握国家政治实权的人。》

林慧敏说,父亲林吉祥也是个慈祥的公公,在槟城时会帮忙照顾哥哥的孩子。

《他对小孩很有办法,被他抱在怀中的婴孩都会静静的。他很少带政治回家,也很少分享工作上的担忧,我反倒希望他能告诉我们好让我们替他分担。》林慧敏说。

尽管父亲参政面对重重逆境,但是,这使得林家上下关系更亲密,孩子的心思都围绕在父母亲身上,若父亲出事了,他们会马上想到母亲的心情。

《父亲及哥哥在茅草行动被扣留的日子,是最艰辛的时候。母亲及妹妹每周从马六甲来吉隆坡与我会面,由我开车到甘文丁扣留营探望哥哥及爸爸,足足一年半的时间,无论是身体或精神上都很折磨。》她说。

《哥哥在1998年因为马六甲首席部长和未成年少女发生性关系的事件,被关进加影监狱,我们每星期去探望他,看着他在监狱内消瘦下来,健康也出问题,我知道父亲为此感到无比痛心。》林慧敏说。

无论如何,看到2008年出现308政治大海啸,父亲率领行动党打出有史以来最辉煌的战绩,哥哥林冠英更一举拿下槟州执政权,成为继王保尼,林苍佑,许子根之后,第四位华裔首席部长;林慧敏感觉很欣慰,觉得父兄多年的努力和坚持,都没有白费。

次女林慧英眼中的林吉祥

林慧英说:《作为小女儿,我最爱向父亲撒娇及倾诉心事,在外人眼中非常严肃的林吉祥,在我心目中却是慈父。小时我很爱对他撒娇,无论是跌倒或是兄弟姐妹打架,我都会向父亲哭诉。》

可是,他的反应与母亲不同,跌倒时母亲会骂我乱跑,他却会叫我看看地板有没有裂痕。他教育我们的方式总是与别不同。

《父亲有一个风雨不改的习惯,就是每天拨电话回家,除非遇到特别情况,否则绝不会忘了每天一通电话。他也是一名对衣食住行没有要求的人,去到哪里都可以睡觉,甚至练至能在数分钟内入眠的功力!》

林慧英说:《他很坚持自己的信念,说话三思为人正直,对自己坚持的事永不放弃。能够成为他的孩子是很荣幸的事。》

小儿子林冠骏眼中的林吉祥

《父亲的公众形象总是被描述为独裁者、沙文主义者、“大嘴巴”甚至是个贪权的人。》林冠骏说:《他其实是个很安静的人,说话前会三思。他是正直的人,坚持于正确的事。对自己坚持的事,他会狠狠地做、永不放弃,对我而言,那才是他的标志。》

长子林冠英眼中的林吉祥

槟州首长林冠英如此形容他的父亲:《林吉祥被公认为拥有无比勇气、清廉及正直的人。》

他说:《莎士比亚写过:有些人生来伟大;有些人成就伟大;还有些人不得不伟大。林吉祥具备上述三种条件,甚至超越这些条件。因为,他还可以激发其他人变得伟大。》

安华眼中的林吉祥

国会反对党领袖安华说:《一般人觉得林吉祥是很强硬的领袖,其实他是很好的聆听者,不像我总是喜欢先发表意见,他是很明理的人。》

安华说:《我觉得所有人尤其是马来社群及宗教人士,若能看见他真正的一面,会发现到他是很有远见,他热爱自由与公平,而且是超越种族的藩篱。》

卡巴星眼中的林吉祥

卡巴星是林吉祥并肩作战超过40年的老战友,它这样评价林吉祥:《他会是一名很出色的律师。然而,他选择把生命奉献给政治。》

卡巴星说:《很多人觉得吉祥是很严肃的人,其实他也有幽默的一面。他总是为人设想周到,在我的印象中,我不曾见过他生气或发脾气,除了在国会里发难。》

卡巴星说:《他从不阻止我们发表任何声明或言论,他也不会问我们在干什么。他总是让我们自由发挥,不会向我们施压力,这点令我非常钦佩他。》

卡巴星认为,林吉祥忠于家庭,甚至完全以家庭作为他最后的依归。算是一个稀有品种。他说:《我们很难再找到另一个像他这样的人,我希望他还有另一个70岁,因为行动党还非常需要他!》

曾敏兴眼中的林吉祥

曾敏兴和卡巴星一样,和林吉祥是患难与共的老战友。他说:《行动党的成功有赖吉祥在背后推动。他执行很严格的纪律,制造问题者都会被孤立及驱逐,以致他被国阵的敌对者标签为独裁者,其实他不是。》

他说:《今日的吉祥与年轻时的吉祥没有两样。迈入70岁的他依然没有停下脚步,还到东马设立支部。是什么使他有如此的冲劲?那是因为他相信行动党能改变国家的政治局面,使国家能成为一个真正马来西亚人优先的国家。》

尾声:林吉祥大事记

陈同前辈在《林吉祥政海浮沉录》中,曾经形容林吉祥是《天生的政治动物》。事实上,这样的形容确实很贴切。

林吉祥在中学时期就对政治充满兴趣。1955年4月,14岁的他与一群同学从柔州峇株巴辖骑脚车到马六甲游玩,路途约有60公里。回程当天碰巧正在举行万隆会议,29个亚洲及非洲国家第一次在没有殖民国家参加的情况下,在印尼万隆举行大型国际会议,讨论亚非人民的切身利益。当时只有14岁的林吉祥非常关心这项国际会议的结果,非常关注随后的国际与国内政治演变。

林吉祥年幼时并没立下志愿在长大后要当什么,他记得18岁那年,在等待中五成绩放榜的空闲时间,有一晚与一群志同道合的同学坐在学校的沟渠边聊天。谈起政治及国家大事时,他开玩笑地建议同伴们走向世界并各自成立政党,10年后再相聚比较成绩。虽然这只是一个玩笑,林吉祥也深知创党不是一件容易的事,这足以显示他在少年时期对政治已充满热忱。

林吉祥在求学时期并没有参加任何政治及社会运动,直到完成中学踏入社会后,才开始接触到政治,继而改变了他的人生。他首先当临教,之后到新加坡海峡时报当记者,并加入职工会。

不久后又到新加坡电台工作一段日子,再到文化部担任媒体官,由于曾加入报馆职工会,他于1962年被委任为新加坡全国新闻工作者协会(Singapore National Union Of Journalist,简称SNUJ)总秘书。虽然当时的新加坡是马来西亚的一份子,林吉祥却心系马来西亚,热切关心西马的政治局势,反而没有参与新加坡的政治活动。

1964年大选,人民行动党共派9个人参选,其中的蒂凡那(民主行动党首任秘书长)中选为孟沙区国会议员,林吉祥因为参与职工会认识了蒂凡那。

1965年8月9日,新加坡脱离马来西亚,人民行动党领袖纷纷回到新加坡,蒂凡那为兑现对选民的承诺,毅然留在马来西亚,并开口要求林吉祥担任其政治秘书。当时的林吉祥还在文化部工作,并已被擢升为新加坡电视台担任编辑,这份工作不只有前途,还是铁饭碗。

蒂凡那知道林吉祥的计划,因此要求他考虑好才答覆,没想到林吉祥却一口答应担任其政治秘书,放弃新加坡的事业。

到了1965年10月,蒂凡那与其他同僚如曾敏兴等人才开始着手成立民主行动党,并进行注册工作,直到1966年3月18日才成功,跟随蒂凡那的林吉祥也自然加入行动党,并开始积极于组织工作,到全国各地招揽有志之士入党。

到了1969年5月10日大选,联盟遭受前所未有的重挫,民主行动党赢下13个席位,林吉祥中选为马六甲市区国会议员,由此展开的他迄今长达47年的政治生涯。

Blue and White Oriental Porcelain: A Guide to Changes and Styles


by priceminer (11/11/09).

Top of Form

Bottom of Form

 

“Of a strong build, suitable for export and of good material, with a clear white body often left unglazed on a flat base. The glaze is thick and rather bubbly, and the blue is of a bright violet tone.”

— R.L. Hobson,author and Chinese Ceramics Specialist, British Museum, 1915.

 

A stoneware water pot with underglaze blue splashes, Tang Dynasty (618-907).

The technique of painting a color under a glaze first developed during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), when celadon enjoyed great popularity. (The Song also delved into some aspects of underglaze porcelain). Although this new decorative style was initially considered vulgar and unworthy of the educated, underglaze painting evolved and matured. The most important period is the Yuan, due to scarcity. Considering the difficulty with firing, some beautiful pieces were produced but few pieces come on to the market.

In simple terms, the unfired porcelain is left to become dry enough to handle, then painted in under glaze cobalt blue (or copper red or iron black). The items are put aside so the paint can dry, and then dipped in or brushed with glaze prior to firing in the kiln. This basic method has been refined over time, as potters sought to remedy the many flaws that spoiled early production. Ironically, those telltale flaws characteristic to one or another period, are of most help in dating Chinese porcelain.

The development of underglaze blue to decorate white porcelain began on a regular basis and with great skill at Jingdezhen in the Yuan period, and was perfected during the Ming Dynasty. Until the Ming, the blue pigment—called cobalt—was imported exclusively from Persia (present day Iran, where the color Mohammedan blue come from) but fortunately a native cobalt was discovered in the early part of the Ming era.

 

A Ming Dynasty celestial globe vase with dragon and floral design from the Yung-lo reign (1403-24).

Within this important era, blue and white porcelain underwent several variations in manufacture. The most vital innovation relates to the modulation in the blue pigment, which can range from a grayish, washed-out blue to blue-black to a brilliant blue.

 

Other variations are the individual glazes, the variety of shapes, the style of decoration, and the calligraphy of the Imperial reign marks.

The dating of early blue and white Chinese porcelain made some headway when Oxford research scientists discovered that the Persian cobalt has no manganese, yet the Chinese cobalt contained a high proportion of manganese oxide. In effect, blue and white wares containing traces of manganese cannot be earlier than Ming. As no blue and white piece can be genuinely attributed to the reign of Hongwu, the first Ming emperor (1368-1398), most pieces are classed as “early 15th century.”

Under the Ming ruler Yongle (1403-24) production of blue and white porcelain flourished, and under his Imperial patronage, a wide range of archaistic floral, fruit and vine motifs and styles ensued, including an occasional Islamic decoration. This period is artistically rich, maintaining the devotion to floral emblems and their significance which had prevailed from early ages in China. In particular, the lotus, chrysanthemum and peony were most popular, used with foliate or geometric borders or rim decoration. Later reproductions of Yongle wares are difficult to distinguish from originals except under expert scrutiny. Reign marks are rarely found on Imperial pieces until the Xuande- era.

 

Yongle characteristics include good, sturdy shapes and curved bodies, with attractive and restrained decoration. If it is a double-sided piece, the decoration is usually similar on both sides. The color is intense violet blue with numerous small dark flecks, and the glaze is very soft and smooth but with the “orange peel” effect of small brown flecks caused by iron impurities.

The classic period in the development of blue and white Oriental porcelain is considered to be the Xuande reign (1426-35), when the marking of ceramics became established practice and a number of innovations occurred. The variety of shapes expanded to include not only dishes but bowls, wine cups, ewers, flasks, vases, lidded boxes and jars, and utensils for Buddhist ceremonial offerings—all richly decorated in the typical blue-black pigment associated with early Ming wares. The glaze has a thick texture, little light reflection and fewer impurities. With the change to the native cobalt, the blue alters to a more subdued color than at the beginning of the century.

An exciting range of shapes and forms came from the Xuande era, which is characterized by a bluish white glaze (usually more uniform than on past porcelain).

 

Minute flecks still occur but are less visible, and the flower scroll decoration is more conventional in style than at beginning of century. Representations of Taoist symbol (mythical characters), the Eight Precious Objects, the Three Friends (pine, prunus, bamboo), phoenix and sacred fungus, among other subjects, are prevalent. The dragon is always vigorously painted, spreading his tail and claws very dramatically against a plain white ground.

After Xuande there was a 20-year interregnum as the successive three emperors appear to have had no interest in ceramics—no more than a few pieces bearing a reign mark from the mid-century. It was to be redressed by Chenghua (1465-87), who revitalized blue and white. Technically, Chenghua pieces are superior, although the former decoration was somewhat curbed due to the taste of the Emperor who followed the dictates of his concubine Wan, and eunuchs.

 

A Ming Dynasty underglaze blue bowl from the Chenghua period.

Chenghua decoration lacks vitality, but has a greater sophistication and effeminacy. The designs become more naturalistic as flowers become swirling wreaths with leafy tendrils, and these designs are sometimes painted on the inside of pieces.

 

There is a new artistic direction as scenes of children or comic figures appear, greatly contrasting with the rest of the decoration; these pieces bear no marks.

Repeated shapes are characteristic of Chenghua pieces, although fragile flared bowls called “palace bowls” are also a characteristic product. Reign marks (nienhao) in two vertical rows are written within a circle or rectangle.

The Hongzhi ruler (1488-1505) continues the wares of previous reigns, with the same classical themes but a less lively depiction. The blue is grayish and varied, with the six characters written under the base in two ways; the characters are small and unevenly spaced, or written larger and in a regular form. Some unmarked bowls decorated with children’s games appear in this period.

The classical period of blue and white Oriental porcelain concludes with the Zhengde ruler (1506-21), when examples range from superb to mediocre. Some later pieces reflect an Islamic innovation, as Arabic or Persian script and quotations from the Koran are used. At the time, Muslim eunuchs and a number of Muslim communities within China held sway at court, and it is thought their influence was reflected in this new decoration. It is seen on small pieces such as writing utensils, candlesticks, vases and screens. Such pieces always have the dynastic mark written in six characters.

 

A Jiajing period Ming Dynasty square dish.

In the Jiajing reign—from 1522 to 1566—blue and white porcelain was characterized by a brilliant rich blue, and decorations of Taoist symbols such as the Eight Immortals or the shou dominate. In everyday pieces we see children’s games, dragons, phoenixes and floral motifs depicted.

Due to economic conditions, Jingdezhen was forced to reduce its output during the Longqmg reign (1567-72). Lan Pu describes it thus: “The clay is adhesive and rich. The body partly thick, partly thin. The technique of manufacture is excellent …. the glaze is lustrous, thick like a layer of fat.”

Blue and white wares produced in the Wanli reign (1573-1620) are characterized by a fine body, a brilliant glaze and deep violet-blue decoration¬—although such pieces are rare. The shapes become a little different from earlier forms, and a return to archaistic shapes signals a decline in creativity. There are repeating themes of dragons, Eight Precious Objects, etc., but also a more vital depiction of figures in everyday life. Delicate pieces such as stem cups and incense burners attributed to Wanli are seen bearing the marks of Xuande or Chenghua.

 

The popularity of blue and white Oriental porcelain was supported by the burgeoning export industry, which widely transported its wares. Products were mainly Chinese, but vast orders from foreign countries were generally fashioned for the foreign tastes and designs of countries in Europe, the Near East and Japan.

Chinese reign marks did not become established practice for marking ceramics until the Xuande reign (1426-35). The six characters are precisely written, placed either under the base in two vertical lines or near the outer rim in a single horizontal line. The top two characters are the emperor’s second name (left) and the character for “great” (right).

The middle characters name the dynasty, and the lower two characters are “made in the reign of …” and the emperor’s first name. It is not accurate to date Chinese porcelain using reign marks. While no doubt some deliberately meant to deceive’ usually it was a simple case of tribute—some potters who admired a previous golden age are known to have reused those marks as a form those marks as a form of respect

Chinese ceramic ware shows a continuous development since the pre-dynastic periods, and is one of the most significant forms of Chinese art. China is richly endowed with the raw materials needed for making ceramics. The first types of ceramics were made during the Palaeolithic era. Chinese Ceramics range from construction materials such as bricks and tiles, to hand-built pottery vessels fired in bonfires or kilns, to the sophisticated Chinese porcelain wares made for the imperial court. Porcelain is also occasionally called “china” in English.

This could be divided into: Imperial porcelain “Guan yao – Imperial kiln/ware” ;Ordinary porcelain “Min yao – peoples ware”

 

Imperial kiln/ware – Guan yao
With this we mean “porcelain specifically made for the Chinese Emperor and the Imperial household”. If we forget the really old stuff and focus on the white bodied stoneware we in the west call porcelain the first specifically “Imperial” kiln was set up in Jingdezhen during the Yuan dynasty (1279-1368 ). From then on, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, “Imperial porcelain” was ordered from and made by this separate Imperial kiln – located at Zhushan (Pearl Hill) in the city of Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province, where still today a thriving porcelain industry is fully functioning.

Peoples ware – Min yao
Most of the Chinese porcelain we see today are “Min yao – min=peoples yao=ware”, mostly bowls and all kinds of pieces connected to the way of life. This kind of porcelain have not changed very much over the years and might therefore be hard to date properly.

Types of Chinese porcelain wares

 

Tang Sancai burial wares

Sancai means three-colours. However, the colours of the glazes used to decorate the wares of the Tang dynasty were not limited to three in number. In the West, Tang sancai wares were sometimes referred to as egg-and-spinach by dealers for the use of green, yellow and white. Though the latter of the two colours might be more properly described as amber and off-white / cream.

Sancai wares were northern wares made using white and buff-firing secondary kaolins and fire clays. At kiln sites located at Tongchuan, Neiqui county in Hebei and Gongxian in Henan, the clays used for burial wares were similar to those used by Tang potters. The burial wares were fired at a lower temperature than contemporaneous whitewares. Burial wares, such as the well-known representations of camels and horses, were cast in sections, in moulds with the parts luted together using clay slip. In some cases, a degree of individuality was imparted to the assembled figurines by hand-carving.

 

Jian tea wares

Jian blackwares, mainly comprising tea wares, were made at kilns located in Jianyang of Fujian province. They reached the peak of their popularity during the Song dynasty. The wares were made using locally won, iron-rich clays and fired in an oxidising atmosphere at temperatures in the region of 1300 °C. The glaze was made using clay similar to that used for forming the body, except fluxed with wood-ash. At high temperatures the molten glaze separate to produce a pattern called hare’s fur. When Jian wares were set tilted for firing, drips run down the side, creating evidence of liquid glaze pooling.
At the time, tea was prepared by whisking powdered leaves that had been pressed into dried cakes together with hot water, (somewhat akin to matcha in Japanese Tea Ceremony). The water added to this powder produced a white froth that would stand out better against a dark bowl. Tastes in preparation changed during the Ming dynasty; the Hongwu Emperor himself preferred leaves to powdered cakes, and would accept only leaf tea as tribute from tea-producing regions. Leaf tea, in contrast to powdered tea, was prepared by steeping whole leaves in boiling water – a process that led to the invention of the teapot and subsequent popularity of Yixing wares over the dark tea bowls.
Jian tea wares of the Song dynasty were also greatly appreciated and copied in Japan, where they were known as tenmoku wares.

 

Ding ware
Ding ware was produced in Ding Xian (modern Chu-yang), Hebei Province, slightly south-west of Beijing. Already in production when the Song emperors came to power in 940, Ding ware was the finest porcelain produced in northern China at the time, and was the first to enter the palace for official imperial use. Its paste is white, generally covered with an almost transparent glaze that dripped and collected in “tears,” (though some Ding ware was glazed a monochrome black or brown, white was the much more common type). Overall, the Ding aesthetic relied more on its elegant shape than ostentatious decoration; designs were understated, either incised or stamped into the clay prior to glazing. Due to the way the dishes were stacked in the kiln, the edged remained unglazed, and had to be rimmed in metal such as gold or silver when used as tableware. Some hundred years later, a Southern Song era writer commented that it was this defect that led to its demise as favoured imperial ware.Since the Song court lost access to these northern kilns when they fled south, it has been argued that Qingbai ware was viewed as a replacement for Ding.

 

Ru ware
Like Ding ware, was produced in North China for imperial use. The Ru kilns were near the Northern Song capital at Kaifeng. In similar fashion to Longquan celadons, Ru pieces have small amounts of iron in their glaze that oxidize and turn greenish when fired in a reducing atmosphere. Ru wares range in colour—from nearly white to a deep robin’s egg—and often are covered with reddish-brown crackles. The crackles, or “crazing,” are caused when the glaze cools and contracts faster than the body, thus having to stretch and ultimately to split, The art historian James Watt comments that the Song dynasty was the first period that viewed crazing as a merit rather than a defect. Moreover, as time went on, the bodies got thinner and thinner, while glazes got thicker, until by the end of the Southern Song the ‘green-glaze’ was thicker than the body, making it extremely ‘fleshy’ rather than ‘bony,’ to use the traditional analogy . Too, the glaze tends to drip and pool slightly, leaving it thinner at the top, where the clay peeps through.

 

Jun ware
Jun ware was a third style of porcelain used at the Northern Song court. Characterized by a thicker body than Ding or Ru ware, Jun is covered with a turquoise and purple glaze, so thick and viscous looking that it almost seems to be melting off its substantial golden-brown body. Not only are Jun vessels more thickly potted, their shape is much more robust than the fine Jun pieces, yet both types were appreciated at court of Emperor Huizong. Jun production was centered at Jun-tai in Yüzhou city, Henan Province.

 

Guan ware
Guan  ware, literally means “official” ware; so certain Ru, Jun, and even Ding could be considered Guan in the broad sense of being produced for the court. Strictly speaking, however, the term only applies to that produced by an official, imperially run kiln, which did not start until the Southern Song fled the advancing Jin and settled at Lin’an. It was during this period that walls become so thin and glaze so thick that the latter superseded the former in breadth. As the clay in the foothills around Lin’an, was a brownish colour, and the glaze so viscus, ‘’Guan’’ ware became known for its “brown mouth”  indicating the top rim or a vessel where the glaze is thinner and the body shows through.

Guan ceramics have been much admired over the years, and very subject to copy. Indeed Gao Lain spends the greatest part of his commentary on describing Guan and its partner Ge ware , as though that were the most troublesome, least easily identified type of pottery.

 

Ge ware
Ge , literally means ‘big-brother’ ware, because legend has it that of two brothers working in Longquan, one made the typical celadon style ceramics, but the elder made ge ware, produced in his private kiln. Ming commentator, Gao Lian claims that the ge kiln took its clay from the same site as Guan ware, which is what accounts for the difficulty in distinguishing one from the other . Overall, Ge remains somewhat elusive, but basically comprises two types—one with a ‘warm rice-yellow glaze and two sets of crackles, a more prominent set of darker colour interspersed with a finer set of reddish lines (called chin-ssu t’ieh-hsien or ‘golden floss and iron threads’, which can just faintly be detected on this bowl: . The other Ge ware is much like Guan ware, with grayish glaze and one set of crackles. Once thought to have only been manufactured alongside Longquan celadon, per its legendary founding, Ge is now believed to have also been produced at Jingdezhen.

While similar to Guan ware, Ge typically has a grayish-blue glaze that is fully opaque with an almost matte finish . Its crackle pattern is exaggerated, often standing out in bold black. Though still shrouded in mystery, many specialists believe that Ge ware did not develop until the very late Southern Song or even the Yuan. In any case, enthusiasm for it persisted throughout the Ming; Wen Zhenheng preferred it to all other types of porcelain, in particular for brush washers and water droppers . Differences between later Ming imitations of Song/Yuan Ge include: Ming versions substitute a white porcelain body; they tend to be produced in a range of new shapes, for example those for the scholar’s studio; glazes tend to be thinner and more lustrous; and slip is applied to the rim and base to simulate the “brown mouth and iron foot” of Guan ware.

 

Qingbai wares
Qingbai wares were made at Jingdezhen and at many other southern kilns from the time of the Northern Song Dynasty until they were eclipsed in the 14th century by underglaze-decorated blue and white wares. Qingbai in Chinese literally means “clear blue-white”. The qingbai glaze is a porcelain glaze, so-called because it was made using pottery stone. The qingbai glaze is clear, but contains iron in small amounts. When applied over a white porcelain body the glaze produces a greenish-blue colour that gives the glaze its name. Some have incised or moulded decorations.

The Song dynasty qingbai bowl illustrated was likely made at the Jingdezhen village of Hutian, which was also the site of the Imperial kilns established in 1004. The bowl has incised decoration, possibly representing clouds or the reflection of clouds in the water. The body is white, translucent and has the texture of very-fine sugar, indicating that it was made using crushed and refined pottery stone instead of pottery stone and kaolin. The glaze and the body of the bowl would have been fired together, in a saggar, possibly in a large wood-burning dragon-kiln or climbing-kiln, typical of southern kilns in the period.

 

Blue and white wares

Following in the tradition of earlier qingbai porcelains, blue and white wares are glazed using a transparent porcelain glaze. The blue decoration is painted onto the body of the porcelain before glazing, using very finely ground cobalt oxide[mixed with water. After the decoration has been applied the pieces are glazed and fired.

It is believed that underglaze blue and white porcelain was first made in the Tang Dynasty. Only three complete pieces of Tang blue and white porcelain are known to exist, but shards dating to the 8th or 9th century have been unearthed at Yangzhou in the Jiangsu province. It has been suggested that the shards originated from a kiln in the province of Henan. In 1957, excavations at the site of a pagoda in the province Zhejiang uncovered a Northern Song bowl decorated with underglaze blue and further fragments have since been discovered at the same site. In 1970, a small fragment of a blue and white bowl, again dated to the 11th century, was also excavated in the province of Zhejiang.

Starting early in the 14th century, blue and white porcelain rapidly became the main product of Jingdezhen, reaching the height of its technical excellence during the later years of the reign of the Kangxi Emperor[38] and continuing in present times to be an important product of the city.

The tea caddy illustrated shows many of the characteristics of blue and white porcelain produced during the Kangxi period. The translucent body showing through the clear glaze is of great whiteness and the cobalt decoration, applied in many layers, has a fine blue hue. The decoration, a sage in a landscape of lakes and mountains with blazed rocks is typical of the period. The piece would have been fired in a saggar  in a reducing atmosphere in a wood-burning egg-shaped kiln, at a temperature approaching 1350 °C.

 

Blanc de Chine
Blanc de Chine is a type of white porcelain made at Dehua in the Fujian province. It has been produced from the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) to the present day. Large quantities arrived in Europe as Chinese Export Porcelain in the early 18th century and it was copied at Meissen and elsewhere.
The area along the Fujian coast was traditionally one of the main ceramic exporting centers. Over one-hundred and eighty kiln sites have been identified extending in historical range from the Song period to present. 
The porcelain body is not very plastic but vessel forms have been made from it. lists the following types of product: figures, boxes, vases and jars, cups and bowls, fishes, lamps, cup-stands, censers and flowerpots, animals, brush holders, wine and teapots, Buddhist and Taoist figures, secular figures and puppets. There was a large output of figures, especially religious figures, e.g. Guanyin, Maitreya, Lohan and Ta-mo figures.

The blue and white porcelain ‘palace bowl’, Ming dynasty, Chenghua mark and period, 1465-1487, is one of only nine examples of this type and design, seven of which are in museums. Its impeccable provenance includes the distinguished collection of Lord Cunliffe. The interior and exterior are delicately painted with stems of scrolling day lilies. From the time of its manufacture, the porcelain produced at Jingdezhen during this period has been judged as perhaps the finest ever made. The products tend to be small, presumably to the exacting taste of the Chenghua emperor. Although his reign was not especially long (22 years), the quantity of shards at Jingdezhen in this period – representing destroyed pieces that had been rejected as unworthy – is apparently much greater than for any other comparable period.

3.Collins and Harlan

 

There was a time when, in American households, the expression “sung by Collins & Harlan” was instantly recognized, like an advertising jingle of the future such as “like a rock.” In the case of the popular vocal duo of the early 19th century, the comparison with a truck commercial serves a more literal purpose than simply pointing out how fleeting popular taste is or how quickly both stars and headlights can dim. Baritone Arthur Collins and tenor Byron Harlan were actually such large men that they were sometimes introduced as “the Half Ton Duo.” Collins was such a heavy piece of human machinery that when he accidentally stepped on a trap door backstage in 1921, the contraption gave way and the singer didn’t stop falling until he hit the basement. It took him two years to recover, but either member of the duo could be said to have earned a lengthy hiatus, not to take the accident lightly.

Collins is said to be the vocalist who made more recordings than any other artist of this period, some 200 sides for the Edison label alone. Partner Harlan sprinted just a bit behind on the discographical racetrack, cutting 130 slabs as a soloist, not to mention the duo’s prolific output of more than 100 Edison releases. With so much material pressed by these artists between 1902 and the late ’20s, it is not surprising that copies are still being found as well as bought and sold, although sellers sometimes feel a necessity to report on the relative presence of mold. In terms of content, some listeners may find some of the duo’s actual songs even more repulsive than any residue found on the record itself. Too often, the presence of a wide range of subject matter, from hating one’s wife (“My Wife Has Gone to the Country! Hurrah! Hurrah!”) to loving (“Alexander’s Ragtime Band”), is overlooked because of scandalous titles such as “Nigger Loves His Possum.” Both performers came up in the minstrel era, effectively inventing the concept of pop music once someone figured out how to make and sell recordings. Standing on the edge of some kind of controversial subject, be it minstrel themes or gangsta rap, seems to be part of the territory. Collins & Harlan can be said to be common currency in only one type of household in the 21st century, that being one that produces or distributes historic archival recordings. The duo is well-represented on such reissues, good news for any interested listeners with allergies to mold.
