Hey @R.AGE! Thanks for these videos, helps me with my Social studies. =)

amazing video, but is Yep Chwee Lan from Singapore or Malaysia?
Thanking, the Malaysian agency for doing this kind movie for the new generation to reflect the hardship life that the old folks might went through in their life during war time. I was not even born during this time.
Story gooood
God bless ahma 🙏🙏🙏
Incredible story! Wonderful person. Totally was in awe of what she and countless others had risk their lives for others. However the producers might have made a basic mistake for dramatic effect. The footage of naval bombardment was actually from the battle of Iwo Jima by battleships of the US navy. A small disgression, a bit misleading and runs the risk of discrediting the whole video and the message.
good will come to you when you do good to others!
Where is hole she mention in johor bahru?
The sense of Humanity is the first victim of War.
Does this channel only cover stories about Malaysia/WWII?
Nope! We mostly do investigative documentaries on social justice issues. Check out our other award-winning documentaries: ua-cam.com/users/rageonlinetv

How did she know how to speak Japanese?
Either she learnt herself or from her japanese spy boss
The stories is no interesting to me . It's heart breaking to tell . Specially to those elderly people's who still live in the country side. Most of them are known the actual fact.
