Watch Fmovies. Assembled from Japanese war news footage and confiscated British newsreels, this propagandistic feature-length documentary film records the Japanese military operations against the British on the Malayan Peninsula and Singapore from December 1941 through February 1942, culminating in the British surrender of Singapore to the Japanese. It is the first of a two-part series titled “Malayan War Record” (Mare Senki; マレー戦記).
