Tan Kah Kee, Aw Boon Haw and the Second Sino-Japanese War [Photo story]
When Japan attacked China during the Second Sino-Japanese War, overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia made contributions to China's war efforts. Among the most prominent community leaders were Tan Kah Kee and Aw Boon Haw, who corralled donations and made separate visits to Chongqing. Historical photo collector Hsu Chung-mao takes us back to that period and shows us the atrocities of war and the indomitable human spirit reflected in old photos.
