Film focuses on Tunku Abdul Rahman, the founder of the Alliance KAHAYAN, who became the first Prime Minister of Malaya in 1957, despite opposition from the British subtly want to delay independence. And Datuk Onn Ja'afar, founder of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), which successfully raised the spirit of Malay nationalism against the Malayan Union proposed by the British in 1946


~ THE TRAILER OF FILM ~:

This is my comment about the film in terms of politics. We can see here the politics of the time before the time of independence, Tunku Abdul Rahman (Che Kem) attempts to gain independence for our country but the British want to delay the independence of our country and Datuk Onn Ja'afar (Zaefrul Nadzarine) founder of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO) was excited against the Malayan Union want, founded by the British that time. They then struggle and cooperate with one another for national freedom. Our national politics at the same time unstable. The local community also helped to physically and mentally to get independence. We can see that at an early stage, political parties in Malaya mostly racial and ideological PKKM, MDU, PAS, UMNO, MCA and others. But the idea of ​​Dato Onn under the latter, IMP is open to all people a platform to political developments in Malaya. Although it failed in the beginning but that the concept of the Alliance Party has been successful in the elections in 1955.This shows the community in terms of independence to overlook their importance for the British drove the Malay lands. Through elections, the Malay leaders directly exposed to parliamentary democracy. Eventually Malaya became independent land through the unity between the three races on August 31, 1957, while the Malayan Union was the pioneer for the consolidation of the three races, namely Malay, Indian, and Chinese.

From the economic front as we know in the years before the economic independence of the time unlike in the present. If we could see at that time they only eat what is only at that time. They only eat rice for a rich man at that time and for poor people, they will only eat potatoes. The very wealthy at that time can be said to those who are working as government officials. At the same time they ride a bicycle only. The rich would be able to own a car at the time. At that time the most prevalent diseases such as malaria. They have to go somewhere far away to get the medication. At the same time the business became the main activity for them. Their small business such as opening the food shop, selling fruits and so on.

In social terms, we can see they are very multi-ethnic population. There are Indian, Chinese and Malays. At that time they lived together in order to fight against British colonialism and for independence. If we look at in terms of their application, the dress at that time most of them Malay dress for men and for women, they are more comfortable to wear baju kebaya and fabric or batik Malay race. For the colonial people, they are more comfortable wearing a coat.
