- Foong Yee was a 24-year-old probationary police inspector when the May 13, 1969 riots broke out.
Fifty years on, his experience driving through the blazing and lawless streets of Kuala Lumpur remains fresh in his memory.
In his account below, he recalls how he managed to save his kin, evacuate his entire village, and rescue his Malay neighbours from being killed by Chinese secret society members.
Along the way, he experienced a brush with death when he drove into a group of army personnel by accident.
Seconds from death, he recalls feeling the muzzle of a gun on his temple.
thank you for your service Dato' Foong Yee on that fateful day you are indeed a credit to your nation and family. I had to learn more about you and thank you for your long service in the RMP culminating in your role of Deputy Chief of Police for KL at the rank of Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police before your retirement.
I SALUTE YOU VETERAN RMP DATO FONG.
His story is better than any history book.
Some selfish political parties risk repeat this history again if continue playing racial cards
sejarah tetap sejarah..fahaman komunis dap tetap ada sampai sekarang...
faizal bankrakyat ko bodoh ke apa? Dap bkn komunis la. Ko tau apa lanjiao tu komunis tak? Habis dap komunis, maka pas apa? Pas lagi dahsyat kan, taliban kan? Pas lagi tak sesuai dgn Perlembagaan negara. Adakah macam tu? Kalo ikut logik hang la.
Like PAS
ICERD sign when 🥲
You stay
Stories like these need to preserved. We need a class in school to remind people of the importance of racial harmony in Malaysia.
What Foong said only 80% accurate. I was a victim(2 mths before 15yrs.) Stayed at Biscuit Factory N Village, 3 3/4miles, klang gate rd, setapak. At that time KL had 79% C, 11% I, 8% M n 2% others. If without the army behind, could they really challenged us. My school mates from Tiong Nam n Chow Kit, their fathers were the direct victims. Can't talk further otherwise will be in trouble.
Please talk ... Or else next 10 yrs there will be no more witness left.. no one knows the truth anymore..
Pada pilihanraya umum 1969, Parti Perikatan yang dianggotai oleh UMNO, MCA, dan MIC gagal memperolehi majoriti 2/3 di parlimen walaupun masih berjaya membentuk kerajaan persekutuan. Hal ini disifatkan oleh parti pembangkang sebagai satu kemenangan yang besar buat mereka. Jumlah kerusi yang dimenangi Parti Perikatan dalam Dewan Rakyat (Parlimen) telah menurun daripada 89 kerusi pada tahun 1964 kepada 66 kerusi pada tahun 1969.
GERAKAN, DAP, PPP dan PAS menang dalam Dewan Rakyat.
"Someone behind me gets shot, and he collapses" the malays really really wanna get rid of Chinese that time.
2×5
Membunuh tu dosa yg paling besar dlm Islam, minta ampun pun tak psti di ampunkan sbb dosa paling besar. Semoga ditempatkan di neraka buat sesiapa yg tlibat dlm 13Mei ini ( tukang rancang & tukang bunuh)
Orang bukan agama Islam akan bunuh orang Islam dan melayu sekelip mata je.
Banyak yg dah pergi neraka kerana Mei 69.
cantik penyapu.
Can Foong tell what was MHYC since he was well verse with Batu Road?
Dlm sejarah memang banyak pergaduhan melayu-cina. Hopefully ini yg terakhir dan Malaysia aman sejahtera
Just a story of his own and nothing that just story. SMiLE 😀
Semoga Allah pelihara bumi bertuah ini insya'allah
After May 13, not many Chinese wanted to live among the Malays.
Why take the risk.
@@anarchosyndicalist
And the Malays like to pretend to be poor, yet the CEOs and heads of GLCs and government departments are almost all Malays/muslims.
So, are you now smart enough to throw away your government crutches and rise on your own 2 feet?
@@anarchosyndicalist
Can you succeed on your own or do you still need government assistance?
@tracia55 wait who? the chinese or the malay?
@tracia55 when? source?
@tracia55 "i dont think they needed government assistance" well they do bro, go educate yourself man, this sentence is so ignorant "they were doing fine before that so to speak..." when?? need more details from u
Cina Indonesia & cina thailand jugak yg bagus.
Pasal ethnic kat sana keras x kasi chance langsung dengan cina.
@@mohddalibinzali1165 btul3👍
Apabila jahil sejarah.
Pemberontakkan PKM dipimpin Chin Peng disokong dan dianggotai etnik Cina Thsiland menganti etnik cina Malaysia yang telah meninggqlkan perjuangan PKM setelah mereka menerima kewarganegaraan Malaysia.
Sebaliknya pegawai pegawai PDRM dan SB yang beretnik Cina Malaysia memainkan peranan barisan hadapan menentang pemberontakkan komunis 1963.
Hari ini bekas anggota PKM yang tidak menyerah diri hidup di penempatqn kg komunis diselatan Thailand rata rata semuanya komunis berbangsa melayu dan satu india.
Takda cina sebab anggota etnik cina Thailand balik ke kg halaman mereka di thailand selepas PKM kalah.
Malu lihat melayu yang tak tahu sejarah negara sendiri tapi champion bab semangat rasisma.
I am Chinese Singaporean. I suggest we unite as One in Malaya. The Dragon from the North will be descending on SEA soon. Already all the best quality Malaysian durians are exported to the Middle Kingdom.
Not just Malaya (SG + MY). But the entire Southeast Asia (ASEAN).
@tracia55 Chinese is an ethnicity, not a country. Just like how everyone call negro as blacks in America. They have nothing to do with Africa. The same with Southeast Asian Chinese, nothing to do with PRChina. Just like Malaysian Malays, nothing to do with Indonesia. Or American Jews with Israel. So stop confusing yourself between ethnicity and country of ancestors. It's the exact same mindset as Nazi Germany if you try to link both country and ethnicity together. And the nazis thought all Germans are Aryans. Look at them now. If ethnicity and country are linked, then why Uyghurs arent labelled as "ethnically Chinese"? You see the Nazism of CCP? So stop it. They are totally different. We are totally different. Taiwan is Chinese, but has nothing to do with PRChina. If we follow history, CCP should hand over the mainland to Taiwan. Not the other way around.
@tracia55never heard of ethnicity bro?? do u know the difference between nationality and ethnicity even?? do u wanna blame ur stupidity and ignorance on the minorities again?? cant u educate yourself before u open ur mouth??
@@AstrobumTV Malaya officially ceased to be used in 1967. I just wonder why we should reunite.
@@utubegeronimo7628 To be free from the clutches of countries with economic superpower. We are now like some beggars asking for their investments and that doesn't come with just money, it comes their laws and regulations for us to uphold their national interests. But if the our entire region work together, we steer our own sails.
Orang lama
