I Love Malaya
45 minutes Documentary / Educational / IndieFlix Official Selections
Chin Peng and more than 200 Malaysian guerillas were denied entry from southern Thailand into their home country after peace was achieved in 1989. This is the story of their journey home in 2005.
Intended Audience: Family
In 2005, an 81-year-old man sued the Malaysian government for denying him entry into the country of his birth. Chin Peng was the leader of the Malayan Communist Party, which waged the longest and most difficult
war lasting more than 30 years, first to overthrow the British colonial government and then against the Malaysian state.
When peace was finally secured in 1989, more than 200 guerillas returned to Malaysia. But Chin Peng was not one of them. In fact there are many like him who have remained in southern Thailand, as stateless aliens, unable to step foot into the country they had given their lives fighting for.
I Love Malaya is the story of their journey home.
