British forces thus faced a dual threat: the MNLA guerrillas and the silent network in villages who supported them. British troops often described the terror of jungle patrols. In addition to watching out for MNLA guerrillas, they had to navigate difficult terrain and avoid dangerous animals and insects.

At <a href="/wiki/Tanjung_Malim" class="mw-redirect" title="Tanjung Malim">Tanjong Malim</a> in March 1952, Templer imposed a twenty-two-hour house <a href="/wiki/Curfew" title="Curfew">curfew</a>, banned everyone from leaving the village, closed the schools, stopped bus services, and reduced the rice rations for 20,000 people. The last measure prompted the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine to write to the Colonial Office to note that the "chronically undernourished Malayan" might not be able to survive as a result. "This measure is bound to result in an increase, not only of sickness but also of deaths, particularly amongst the mothers and very young children". Some people were fined for leaving their homes to use external latrines. In another collective punishment, at <a href="/wiki/Sungai_Pelek" title="Sungai Pelek">Sengei Pelek</a> the following month, measures included a house curfew, a reduction of 40 percent in the rice ration and the construction of a chain-link fence 22 yards outside the existing barbed wire fence around the town. Officials explained that the measures were being imposed upon the 4,000 villagers "for their continually supplying food" to the MNLA and "because they did not give information to the authorities".<sup id="cite_ref-98" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-98"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>96<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Deportations">Deportations</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Malayan_Emergency&action=edit&section=24" title="Edit section: Deportations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Explanationism" title="Wikipedia:Explanationism"><span title="This sentence or topic needs more explanation.">more detail needed</span></a></i>]</sup>Over the course of the war, some 30,000 mostly ethnic Chinese were deported by the British authorities to mainland China.<sup id="cite_ref-the_malayan_emergency_2021_11_11_the_forum_bbc_11-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-the_malayan_emergency_2021_11_11_the_forum_bbc-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-99" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-99"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>97<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This would have been a war crime under Article 17 (2) of Additional Protocol II to the Geneva Conventions, which states: "Civilians shall not be compelled to leave their own territory for reasons connected with the conflict."<sup id="cite_ref-Gifu_97-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gifu-97"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>95<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Public_display_of_corpses">Public display of corpses</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Malayan_Emergency&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Public display of corpses"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>During the Emergency it was common practice for British forces and their allies to publicly display the corpses of suspected communists and anti-colonial guerrillas.
