Abstract
On 13 May 1969, intercommunal rioting broke out between the Malay and Chinese sections of the population of Kuala Lumpur and continued for a full week. Subsequently a state of emergency was proclaimed, parliamentary government was suspended and the country was placed under the rule of the National Operations Council (a council of top ministers, civil servants and the chiefs of the armed forces and police) which ruled by edict.Keywords
