Towards the end
of the 17th century, |
00:00:27.185 - 00:00:29.346 |
massive tin deposits
were uncovered |
00:00:29.420 - 00:00:31.888 |
in the district of Kinta, |
00:00:31.956 - 00:00:34.151 |
a discovery that placed
Malaya on the world map. |
00:00:34.225 - 00:00:37.888 |
As a result
of this discovery, |
00:00:37.962 - 00:00:40.396 |
throngs of laborers migrated
from South China. |
00:00:40.465 - 00:00:43.798 |
Many were deluded by the dream
of the tin rush. |
00:00:43.868 - 00:00:47.395 |
But they were treated
as slaves. |
00:00:47.472 - 00:00:49.770 |
Living conditions
were harsh. |
00:00:49.841 - 00:00:52.435 |
They worked the land
without reservations. |
00:00:52.510 - 00:00:55.479 |
In the transition of time, |
00:00:55.546 - 00:00:57.776 |
the people and land were
woven into one. |
00:00:57.849 - 00:01:00.374 |
Though foreign yet familiar, |
00:01:00.451 - 00:01:03.045 |
the enchanting land
became home to many. |
00:01:03.120 - 00:01:06.920 |
Where's the money? |
00:03:14.352 - 00:03:16.149 |
From sunrise to sunset, |
00:03:18.556 - 00:03:22.253 |
this is the order
of nature. |
00:03:22.326 - 00:03:24.760 |
Do you hear me? |
00:03:26.664 - 00:03:28.427 |
You're gonna pay us. |
00:03:29.767 - 00:03:32.201 |
We thought our destiny
was in our own hands. |
00:03:33.838 - 00:03:36.329 |
I'm not asking you again. |
00:03:36.407 - 00:03:37.533 |
