看到泰王駕崩,大马网民对领国国事的反应 ,也真让我觉得大部分大马人民是很有同理心(根据我面子书大部分友人的哀伤反应 和大马媒体大事报导),这是件好事,也有位友人和我提起了一件历史事故,这也让我想起了历史书中曾读过的泰国在世界二战中的立场角色与我们祖先所经历的马来亚,新加玻被日军占领的痛苦日子 。
excerpt from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thailand_in_World_War_II)
Thailand officially adopted a position of neutrality until it was invaded by Japan in December 1941. At the start of the Pacific War, the Japanese Empire pressured the Thai government to allow passage for the Japanese troops to invade British-held Malaya and Burma.[1] The Thai government under Plaek Phibunsongkhram (known simply as Phibun) considered it preferable to co-operate with the Japanese rather than fight them. Axis-aligned Thailand declared war on the United States and Britain and proceeded to the annexation of territories in neighbouring countries, expanding northwards, southwards and eastwards, and gaining a border with China near Chiang Tung (Keng Tung).[2]
不懂大马网民了解了这则历史是否会有所不同反应,可是值得一提的是泰王Bhumibol Adulyadej是在 1946年才上任而Malayan occupation by Japanese 是在1941年,况且大家都已走出了历史,很多华人都已在日厂效劳。我对友人说历史是教育我们"前车之覆,后车之鉴",而不是教育我们世代仇恨。
