* ''The Battle at Lake Changjin,'' a Chinese film about UsefulNotes/TheKoreanWar from the Chinese perspective, caused a controversy among Malaysians who criticized the film for being pro-communist, and Malaysia banned the film for that reason. Similar to its neighboring countries Indonesia and Singapore, Malaysia has a policy of banning anything depicting communism and socialism in a neutral light.
