445 days under the Isa: Operation Lalang 1987-89

---

This classic account of "Operation Lalang" by one of its victims, Kua Kia Soon, can be read as a survival handbook for those who might fall victim to Malaysia's dreaded Internal Security Act, which allows detention without trial. Or it can be used as an invaluable tourist guide to Malaysia's well-known Kamunting Detention Camp in any "Visit Malaysia Year." This period of mass arrests and detentions during 1987 to 1989 was a time of unprecedented transformation in the Malaysian political arena. The author has set his saga against the backdrop of these events that were unraveling beyond the wire and which were to have such profound consequences for all Malaysians. Since the publication of "445 Days" in 1989, it has unlocked the floodgates of other ISA detainees' accounts of their experiences. This third edition with essential updates is testimony to the book's importance and popularity. It contains all the arguments Malaysians need to demolish this indefensible suppression apparatus once and for all.
