Hawkins, Gerald MALAYA Singapore Government Printing Office 1953 Hardcover Good in Good dust jacket Gilt decorated cover with scattered spots. Good (+) in moderately chipped and soiled dust-jacket, price clipped. ; 19 x 27 cm.; pg. 114; Originally published 1952. Preface, introduction, many black-and-white photos by D. A. Gibson-Hill, index. An interesting period photo-survey and narrative of the Malay states which formed the Federation of Malaya and the Crown Colony of Singapore. The author notes that..."Malaya has a sickness which must be cured. It has not yet found itself. All but a fractional part of its population are Asians who have for centuries based their unit of society on something small, the family, the clan, the village. There never was any great loyalty to the state as an abstract idea...Malaya has acquired wealth, but has not found a soul, or a common patriotism, or common standards of value. The most pressing of all Malaya's problems is how to make men feel themselves fellow-citizens and brothers in God. " Price:
