Synopsis:
The Second World War in Malaya from 1941-1945 was a time of darkness and
despair - where innocent lives were lost and blood ran freely. The
Japanese rule with an iron hand, slaughtering tens of thousands of
Chinese citizens. They force young women to work as sex slaves, or
'comfort women' and trick others into working on the notorious 'Death
Railway'. The people of Malaya struggle for survival. When the Japanese
surrender in 1945, Malaya plunges into a period of turmoil that brings
it to the brink of civil war. But amidst the fire and ruins, sparks of
resilience and courage grew. The painful war experience gave a great
impetus to a new awakening. "Rising Sun Over Malaya" tells this little
known story through the eyes of the people of Malaysia who had a
personal observation of the occupation.
