the long version
Operation Rimau, Britain's last desperate throw of the colonial dice in South-East Asia, was designed as a body blow to the Japanese and a signal to the world that she would reclaim her Eastern Empire. At the same time Australia's wartime prime minister, ]ohn Curtin, had turned to America and her most decorated soldier, General Douglas MacArthur, for his country's salvation.
