It deals with the establishment of the domestic intelligence service known as the Malayan Security Service (MSS), which was pan-Malayan covering both Singapore and Malaya, and the colourful and controversial career of Lieutenant Colonel John Dalley, the Commander of Dalforce in the WWII battle for Singapore and the post-war Director of MSS. It also documents the little-known rivalry between MI5 in London and MSS in Singapore, which led to the demise of the MSS and Dalley’s retirement.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52743376142616,"sku":"9789814818735","price":23.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/dalley-and-the-malayan-security-service-1945-48-mi5-vs-mss-paperback-softback-9789814818735","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
