Description

This compelling book explores the dilemma faced by Malaysian Tamils as they
confront the moment when the plantation system where they have lived and
worked for generations finally collapses. The old, long-term community-
based model of rubber plantation production introduced by British and
French companies in colonial Malaya has been replaced by a model based upon
migrant labor, mechanization, and a gradual contraction of the plantation
economy. Tamils find themselves increasingly resentful of the fact that
lands that were developed and populated by their ancestors are now claimed
by Malays as their own.
