[@davidscz]

Thanks for the recent in depth coverage on the theatre in Malayan peninsular, its so often overlooked! Kampar is not relatively well known, its good this place get some exposure

[@flynnstone3133]

I highly recommend the channel Historigraph for anyone more interested in the Malaysian Campaign. They just completed a series on it!

[@evilwelshman]

As a Malaysian, I think it is worth highlighting the following: We often learned in our history books about how the British led the defence of Malaya when the Japanese invaded. However, what we didn't learn (or at least, not when I studied it in school) was how it was actually the British *_INDIAN_* Army who did most of the fighting. Which I feel is a huge oversight and disservice; especially when you further consider that Indians form one of the main (and smallest of the main three) ethnic groups of the country.

[@evilwelshman]

@@NathanCassidy721 I completely agree. And I feel anyone who spends time learning about the Pacific Theatre will very quickly come to that same realisation too. Though at the same time, I admit to being reluctant to speak positively of the Imperial Japanese military as I had family who suffered from the atrocities they committed.

[@michaelmoorrees3585]

Those Indian troops were well trained. Supplies and reinforcements was the main issue. The colonial officers (salon solders) also were not up to the task. The Japanese did an excellent job, as they only used a little over 100 thousand troops for this whole campaign, that captured the whole of south east Asia, from the Malaysian Peninsula, Borneo, the Philippines, to the Dutch East Indies.

[@jkasiron2275]

@@NathanCassidy721 And their generals appear to have had a much greater ability to assess their enemy's situation. Most of these details are new to me, but I am getting the idea that underestimating both the IJA and the generals facing them was a major contributor to the defeats suffered by British (Indian) and American (Philippine) forces.

[@jkasiron2275]

@@evilwelshman That's understandable. It sounds like you have to be careful to make sure everyone understands you are not admiring the IJA itself, only expressing how experienced and capable the IJA was at this time.

[@leexingha]

@@jkasiron2275 nope. US and UK knew that the SEA was done for. US isnt prepared for an immediate war. they could only delay. UK could not afford to send any huge force on towards east but Indian pawns as they are only hanging by themselves (if UK isnt divided by the SEA, it will be easily conquered by the Germans). the allied strategy for the pacific theater is to play defensive while they turn offensive against German but the JP midway disaster made the US to go on offensive early than expected

[@MrKIMBO345]

This piece of history teachs us of the how Philippines fail to defend against the Imperial Japanese.

[@patrickd.3553]

@@MrKIMBO345 Yes, although not a total failure, but a necessary sacrifice. This bought time to reinforce Australia thus saving it and providing safer and more accessible area as base of operations of the Allies. Later, the resistance's success caused the Japanese to only able to control twelve of the forty-eight provinces.

[@DreamerFromBeyond]

@@MrKIMBO345 No your wrong, the US was the one in charged of defense of the Philippines. it clearly showed that they abandoned the defense in favor of defeating the German Reich in Europe first and then come back to Asia to deal with the Imperial Japan second. besides we got outdated ships we could barely call a navy and squadron of fighter planes we can hardly call Air Force in the face of the Imperial Japanese Navy it was nothing. If we look at it at a distance the US was simply careless with dealing with the Imperial Japan which led to the Attack on Pearl Harbor and fall of wake Island. Their President Roosevelt was so hell bent on participating in the War to prevent a Nazi victory in Europe they probably bait the Japanese to attack them in the Pacific and the rest is history. Our price from this war is over a hundred thousand casualties and our Capital in ruins.

As a Japanese, I am grateful for the the depth and details of this series. In Japanese schools, we are only taught about war crimes, air raids and atomic bombs, and the last part of the war like the New Guinea front, Operation Imphal, and the Battle of Okinawa, so we don't know much about how and in what order Japan expanded its power. edit: why do some people glorify war in this reply? plz STOP ;/

[@mitjed]

@Idk Idk Still atomic bomb is a war crime, they used it to the women and children as well. They could have just used it in the battlefield. If the Japanese where to win the war, they could have tried Truman for his war crimes.

[@jeffreyestahl]

Not just there. Too many countries have either whitewashed or retconned their behavior or contribution throughout history, not just WW2. I prefer to study history in all its warts - only then can we actually learn anything from it.

[@user-uk8nf8jv6u]

​@@alexrider2597 In Japan we have annual lessons on peace in elementary and middle schools learn about Okinawa/Hiroshima tragedies, at least one visit to a war museum in elementary school, and have many films/manga mention about atrocities by the both Allies and Japanese troops.There are many references to war crimes in textbooks. In the West, there is a great deal of prejudice about Japanese history education (probably due to the information strategies of right-wing lobby groups in Korea and China).

@@tenzinnyima2792 The difference between Truman vs Alexander or Saladdin is that the latter doesnt have an option to use an atomic bomb to innocent civilians.

[@wolfu597]

What I really like is the detailed covering of the fighting the British, the Indians and the Gurkhas did in Malaya, instead of the usual broad paint brush that I've seen on earlier documentaries. The British and Empire troops in Malaya were not top quality, but they did the best they could under the circumstances.

[@oddballsok]

@@stephenchappell7512 yes and no... rather , the japanese had CRAZY AMOUNTS of Air superiority, and that was ESSENTIAL in their strategy (see the Dutch East Indies..."just" navy supremacy wouldnt have gotten them that far, so fast..)...while the allies had planes but obsolete and a LOT LESS. But these King & General videos do NOT give CONSTANT insight to the MASSIVE japanese airforce potential it used everywhere and all the time ... ..

[@evilwelshman]

What I feel is really interesting is how the bulk of the fighting appears to have been done by the Indians and Gurkhas. Yet, this is often overlooked and the defence instead often simply described as being conducted by the British. Even in Malaysian history textbooks.

[@shansuleiman2567]

As a Malaysian and having families close to the battle site (Tapah about 10km south of Kampar), appreciate your efforts and the videos. With good artillery placement along the ridge, the British managed to hold the Japanese for about 4 days and inflicted considerable damage. However, they failed to check the Japanese landings on the west coast. Looking forward to the next battle; Slim River.

Looking forward for the Battle of Slim River video!

[@HansenDing]

I always feel like Changsha is the most underrated front in WW2 history. That city held out against Japan for nearly four years across three major offensives. It would eventually take Japan committing over 11 divisions to take the city - about the same as they used to launch their entire south east asia campaign.

My other grandfather served on a bomber (a B-17 I believe) in the Pacific, though I'm not sure of the dates and all the locations. Though I know for a fact he was stationed in Japan in the post war occupation and luckily my grandmother took many photographs of their time stationed overseas. So when I see any video on the Pacific War, especially if it is about the areas West of the Philippines I'm always that much more interested.

War is easier when you conduct it like imperial colonists of old: wholesale rape and murder. They learned from the best.

[@abcdc197]

@@CorePathway British were not like that tho. They were always gentlemen at least royalty of old. They left dirty work for local lords. Their regulars didn't loot and rape as that was punishable by execution, executions of soldiers who commited such acts was very common. They had to buy products from locals(sometimes at lower price but still) There's reason why they held power with so little force over so much land for long. They didn't do it out of their goodness but always avoided to do anything that could be used against them as bad guys so they always had allies. There were examples of brutality but only on those who were alone and were on bad terms with everyone including British. Smart politics to the core. Doesn't mean they were good but to compare them to Japanese or Germans is a joke. Not the fan of Brits but it's the fact. Their strategy due to lack of land manpower and distance was always to apear as good guys no matter the cost. No other Empire of the time had so many different peoples and cultures employed and all working toghether the same way.

@ABC DC Couldn't agree more. Very well written and explained. 👍
