 Malaysia information guide : History of Malaysia
Post- war British plans to unite the administration of Malaya under a single crown colony called the Malayan Union foundered on strong opposition from the Malays, who opposed the emasculation of the Malay rulers and the granting of citizenship to the ethnic Chinese.
The Malayan Union, established in 1946 and consisting of all the British possessions in Malaya with the exception of Singapore, was dissolved in 1948 and replaced by the Federation of Malaya, which restored the autonomy of the rulers of the Malay states under British protection.
The Malayan Emergency, as it was known, lasted from 1948 to 1960, and involved a long anti- insurgency campaign by Commonwealth troops in Malaya.

 Code of Conduct for Industrial Harmony and Areas for Co-operation and Agreed Industrial Relations Practices - Document ...
As employers and workers and trade unions representing them are jointly and severally responsible for good industrial relations, the first need is for both managements and trade unions to accept, at the highest level, the same degree of responsibility for industrial relations as for other functions within their respective organisations.
Equally, trade unions should ensure that the policies and practices which they adopt are not only fair in relation to the function and purpose for which they have been formed but also take into consideration national interests.
Where a trade union has not secured recognition from the employer for negotiating rights, the employer should nevertheless be prepared to consider receiving representations from the union on behalf of its members about grievances or other matters, which can be settled on an individual basis.

 Messy Christian: Malayan Emergency = Iraqi War?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Malayans were not the majority, they what the citizens of Malaya were known as.
Though the Malayan Emergency was declared on June 16, 1948, fighting began immediately after the Japanese surrendered, with the MCP staging a three-day reign of terror prior to the British arriving in 1945.
The crux of the Malayan Emergency-Iraq comparison is that in both cases, one is predominantly a minority group and the other side is predominantly a majority group.

 Liu’s history revisionism ‘a sore thumb’
Burhanuddin and PKMM then realised their serious error when the Malays disagreed, and in particular, he took the official line of offence that the Malayan Union failed to reflect the historical past of the Malays in Malaya.
PKMM then ‘decided’ that Malayan Union was out to wipe out the Malay-ness of Malaya, by a colonial trickery of ‘Malayanising’ the nationality of the Malays.
Burhanuddin accepted Boestamam's action and explanation (he was in total control of PKMM anyway) and PKMM actually went on to be on the side of the Malayan Union by working with AMCJA and Putera, again, with close ties to PKM.
