Mao Zedung Receives Chin Peng, March 1965
Although this meeting in Beijing is not directly related to Perak, it is a fact that it was Perak in particular that continued to suffer from the communists for several years after the Malayan Emergency was declared over.
As there has been much press about Chin Peng recently, I thought a picture of him might be appropriate.
It is so sad to see a Malayan being denied entry to, and to rest in peace in his land of birth.
Whatever his faults were, he is but a harmless old man now.
