¿́¿This book tells the full story of Britain¿́¿s undeclared war against Indonesia, including an operational study of the conflict and strategies utilised by the opposing parties. The Indonesian guerrilla units were led and stiffened by armed forces regulars but still performed poorly against the Commonwealth defenders. Besides operational lessons on military leadership and quality of military training, this book underscores the strategic vulnerability of Singapore and its preoccupation with national security, offering at the same time an indepth look into the historical and geo-strategic insights of the region." -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 4th Edition - STAGE II: CPT 2 to MAJ 1 & MWO-SWO
