In the mid-20th century, the governments of Malaya and South Vietnam initiated population-resettlement programmes as part of their overall efforts to fight the ongoing communist insurgencies in their countries. The British colonials housed hundreds of thousands of Chinese squatters in “New Villages”, a move which contributed significantly towards the defeat of the communist insurgency. Similarly, the South Vietnamese government began the “Strategic Hamlet” programme to cut ties between villagers and insurgents. However, this initiative soon proved to be an ill-fated, abject failure, and quickly faded into oblivion. This dichotomy between the two population-resettlement programmes stemmed from two main reasons: the different implementations of the resettlement programmes by their respective governments and the differing reactions of the people being resettled.
