Pedra Branca
This book is about the territorial dispute between Malaysia and Singapore over Pedra Branca, a small but strategically located island near the entrance to the Straits of Malacca. It describes how the two countries managed the dispute over three decades until final resolution by the International Court of Justice in May 2008. The two authors, who were personally involved in the case, recount the many twists and turns in the dispute as well as behind the scenes political and diplomatic manoeuvres. At a time when Asia still has numerous unresolved territorial disputes, the book would be of great interest to scholars, academics and practitioners in politics, international relations, history, diplomatic and legal circles.

Imam Abu Hanifa An-Nu'man
“To the generation that searches in all directions for the courageous free man, I present this role model for freedom, courage and struggle. We have to look at both the future and the past, as past is the center of gravity that keeps our balance. And we shall not head towards the unknown (the future) unless we have sufficient suppliesfrom the known (the past). Similarly we cannot refute others’ alleges except when we get enough of our resources. If tilltoday we have taken only scratches from our rich treasures, then we have to look back at our history,bearing in mind that the remedy is not to be imported from abroad if immunity is attained by stimulating the anti-bodies of the living body.
