Besides the impact of the Korean and Vietnam Wars and the Malayan Emergency and communist uprisings in other Southeast Asian states, there was within Borneo the attempted communist takeover of Sarawak from the 1950s, a failed coup d'état in Brunei in 1962, Sukarno's \u003ci\u003eKonfrontasi\u003c\/i\u003e (confrontation) with Malaysia, and the horrific purge of Leftists and ethnic Chinese in the late 1960s. This book details these momentous events and assesses their impact on Borneo and its people. It is a sequel to the author's earlier books \u003ci\u003eThe Japanese Occupation of Borneo, 1941-1945\u003c\/i\u003e (2011) and \u003ci\u003ePost-War Borneo, 1945-1950: Nationalism, Empire, and State-Building\u003c\/i\u003e (2013), collectively a trilogy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Keat Gin Ooi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138910783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138910782\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/07\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 374\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.94d","brand":"Keat Gin Ooi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065379926271,"sku":"9781138910782","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_96f05235-c53d-4a14-b8e5-756bac349dc0.jpg?v=1768674805","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/borneo-in-the-cold-war-keat-gin-ooi-9781138910782","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
