Singapore was a base for the Indonesian nationalists, the British, the Dutch, and Chinese traders, with each group exploiting prevailing circumstances for their own interests. Indeed, the author argues that the success of Indonesia's struggle against the Dutch was due in no small measure to the opportunities available in Singapore to advance Indonesia's strategic aims. The Singapore connection during these years was a vital link.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYong Mun Cheong\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an associate professor at the National University of Singapore, where he has taught courses on Southeast Asia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32123276689521,"sku":"9789971692766","price":38.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0041\/products\/The_Indonesian_Revolution_and_the_Singapore_Connection_1945-1949_by_Yong_Mun_Cheong_00.jpg?v=1602763399","url":"https:\/\/epigrambookshop.xyz\/products\/the-indonesian-revolution-and-the-singapore-connection-1945-1949","provider":"Epigram","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
