Video Ranau zaman 1940an (Return to Sandakan)

dipetik daripada kisah "Return To Sandakan". Kisah perjalanan askar Australia dari Sandakan ke Ranau sekitar tahun 1940an yang menghadapi kesulitan dan kesengsaraan. Diceritakan kembali oleh Godihil, Balabiu dan Kahingal bagaimana mereka membantu askar orang putih. Yang menariknya ada video Balabiu semasa dia berumur sekitar 10 tahun (1946). Info dari Mr. Putun : Sedikit penjelasan, Sabah dan Malaysia belum lagi wujud dalam konteks video di atas. Dari tahun 1882-1946, Sabah dikenali sebagai North Borneo di bawah North Borneo Chartered Company (NBCC). Setelah Perang dunia ke2, NBCC tidak mampu membina semula kota Jesselton yang habis terbakar akibat taktik "scorched earth" yang digunakan oleh pihak British. Pemerintahan North Borneo diserahkan seterusnya kepada United Kingdom dan North Borneo berubah menjadi British North Borneo dari tahun 1946-1963.

Just a little piece of interesting info. This wasn't shown in the clip but is available on the full length documentary. Lance-Bombardier Bill Moxham, one of only 6 surivivors of the death marches, was so deeply affected by his ordeal that he commited suicide in 1961 on his farm property in New South Wales which he named...Ranau. Believe it or not, there is a place called Ranau in Australia. Tragic story though...

@MrPutun More interesting information on Bill Moxam is that he had two brothers Tom and Harry, who were also POWs of the Japs. After surviving the Burma railway these two brothers were being taken to Japan in Jap transport ships that were sunk by US submarines. One brother died hours before rescue and the other was rescued.

Sabah or north borneo is not yet part of Malaysia at this time, Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore join Malaysia Federation on 16 September 1963.

but Singapore left Malaysia on 9 August 1965 bcuz of some racist affairs happened at that time.(more like politic affairs)
