Petaling Jaya, 8th September 2024 - Risking life and limb battling the ruthless and elusive communist terrorists was a deadly and daunting challenge for our fighting men during the insurgency.
Datuk Paul Kiong, then a 23-year-old in the Special Branch, undertook the extraordinary espionage mission that would test the limits of bravery and deception.
He went on to penetrate and work alongside the cells, demonstrating a remarkable blend of bravery and strategy in his role, leading to the capture and elimination of over 50 communist terrorists.
“The CTs (communist terrorists) were advancing and spreading communism among our youth in the 1960s at the height of the Second Emergency. They wanted to build a communist state and were setting up strongholds all over.
“We could not allow that to happen to our multiracial country. Imagine a country without religion. Our nation was under serious threat and it was our responsibility to bring the CTs to their knees,” said the Ipoh-born police veteran in an interview recently.
