from the rulers of the Malay-Palembang or Sri
Vijaya empire. Besides this, other factors included
the presence of the Malay nobility who had been
with him since he was ruler of Palembang, and the
support of the Orang Laut (Orang Selat)
throughout his reign in Palembang and Singapore
until the early period of his settlement in Malacca.

force MPAJA estimated at 7,000 and

CHAPTER 1: The Early History of Malaysia
After the Japanese surrendered, the Communist Party took the opportunity to
power through the guerrillas MPAJA and through organizations such as the Min
Yuen , MRL and so on.
Violence, riots and fights between the races took place in Malaya, especially in the
southern part of Malaya. As a result, the Malays began to react against the cruel
communist BINTANG TIGA as a team led by Chief Salleh red sash. British troops
returned to the administration (BMA) in a short period of time causing the
communist BINTANG TIGA unable to expand their influence.
BINTANG TIGA consequences at failing to seize the communists of Malaya with
an armed movement, led to the dissolution of the military agreement MPAJA and
placement of a firearm while token payments to the guerrillas were implemented.
