The Japanese invasion and occupation of southeast Asia provided
opportunities for the peoples of the region to pursue a wide range
of agendas that had little to do with the larger issues which drove
the conflict between Japan and the allies. This book explores how
the occupation affected various minority groups in the region. It
shows, for example, how in some areas of Burma the withdrawal of
established authority led to widespread communal violence; how the
Indian and Chinese populations of Malaya and Thailand had extensive
and often unpleasant interactions with the Japanese; and how in
Java the Chinese population fared much better.
