This book examines Borneo, both British Borneo - Brunei, Sarawak
and North Borneo - and Dutch Borneo in the period 1945-1950. Borneo
then was at the crossroads. Following the Japanese Occupation, the
likely future status of the various Bornean territories was not at
all clear, and the book discusses the various factions and powers,
both local and international, who were contending for control in
this period. It examines the effects of the Japanese surrender, the
impact of the subsequent interregnum and Australian and British
military administrations, the reassertion of Dutch control, the
struggle for Indonesian independence, and movements for local
autonomy, reassertion of ethnic rights, interests and identity. It
charts developments throughout this volatile and uncertain period,
up to the point at which the newly independent Republic of
Indonesia emerged and a more settled period began.
