Anti British League

Kuantan-born, Eu Chooi Yip, a bi-lingual (Chinese and English) journalist, was a Raffles College graduate. After the MDU was dissolved, he rejected an offer from Tan Cheng Lock in 1949 to become paid Secretary of the MCA because he was opposed to communal organisations. Two years later, he escaped from a British round-up of alleged members of the Anti-British League. He is believed to be a communist now, leading the Peking-based Malayan Liberation Front.
