Interview with survivor of WW2 Japanese Occupation
Interview with survivor of WW2 Japanese Occupation
This video is an interview with a survivor of the Japanese occupation in Singapore. This is done by Ryan Lim and Tan Wen Liang of Hwa Chong Institution, Class 1O1'11. Through our interview session with Ryan's great uncle, we have learnt many things about the Japanese Occupation which can never be explained through textbooks. Thus, we feel that this has been a very enriching experience as after learning about the horrors of the Japanese Occupation and how they treated Singaporeans back then, we felt that we are indeed very fortunate and blessed to be living in modern Singapore, a safe and secure home. We feel that though this event has passed, we should always remember it so as to remind us that we are responsible for Singapore's safety and make sure that such history never repeats itself again. Credits goes to youtuber prasanchok for his clips of the Japanese occupation.

War Clip on the Japanese Invasion/Battle of Singapore
The clip shows the sides in the war and the generals involved( not all of them) and what was the outcome. Any comments with vulgarities will be deleted. read the description before commenenting things that will make you look like a fool. All the facts shown are true ( unless you count the statistics which may vary with sources, we took the best estimates) and have been crosss referenced with online sources, interviews and research. I've seen ridiculous comments on how Japan was the saviour, how the Japs have treated people well. These comments are untrue. Fabian and Marcus

Conquest of Malaya and Singapore - Japanese Naval March
Conquest of Malaya and Singapore - Japanese Naval March
1941 December, Japanese troops landed at Kota Baru in Malaya. Within a few hours, all the British airfields were taken and thus began a quick march down the Malayan Peninsula. 2 months later, Singapore fell. Clip shows the landing from the sea and a Japanese unit advancing under heavy fire. A soldier could be seen cutting the barb wire fence before the rest charged into the gap. Also seen are tanks along the Singapore Padang with City Hall at the background and the reception given to General Yamashita by the surrendering British and Indian troops. The music is a Japanese Naval march called the "March of the Warships" (軍艦行進曲)or the "Gunkan March". It was composed in 1897 by naval troop band leader Tokichi Setoguchi, the words were written by Hiraku Toriyama. It was used as the march of the Imperial Japanese Navy, and after WW II re-adopted as the march of the Maritime Self Defense Forces of Japan. The figures for the massecre of the civilian population in Singapore varied from 6000 to 40000. The lower figure was gleaned from the Kempei Tai Japanese military police.The higher figure from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. The civilian population in Malaya suffered a similar fate. All those who had experienced Japanese Occupation should be able remember this stirring Naval war song, even though they had bad memories of the event.

The Japanese Invasion of Malaya
The Japanese Invasion of Malaya
Article: www.myxpitstop.com WWII Short documentary: The Japanese Invasion of Malaya The Japanese Invasion of Malaya began just after midnight on 8 December 1941 before the attack on Pearl Harbor. The Japanese plan for the invasion involved landing troops on the east coasts of Thailand and Malaya. The forces in Thailand were to push through to the west coast and invade Malaya from its northern province of Kedah, whilst their eastern forces from Vietnam would attack down the east coast and into the interior of Malaya from Kota Bharu. The Japanese attack force for the invasion of Malaya, Lieutenant General Tomoyuki Yamashita's 25th Army, had sailed from Samah Harbour on Hainan Island on 4 December 1941. Japanese troops launched an amphibious assault on the northern coast of Malaya at Kota Bharu and started advancing down the eastern coast of Malaya. This was made in conjunction with landings at Pattani and Songkhla in Thailand, where they then proceeded south overland across the Thailand-Malayan border to attack the western portion of Malaya. The Japanese had already coerced the Thai government into letting them use Thai military bases to launch attacks into Malaya. "Malaya or Peninsular Malaysia or West Malaysia (Malay: Semenanjung Malaysia) is the part of Malaysia which lies on the Malay Peninsula, and shares a land border with Thailand in the north. To the south is the island of Singapore. Its area is 50810 square miles (131598 square kilometers). It accounts for the <b>...</b>
