摘要

二战期间砂拉越也遭到日本的入侵，与星马华人相同，当地华社也因为在此前支援中国抗日而受到日军的报复。三年八个月的日据统治，让当地华人在水深火热中挣扎求存，苦不堪言。这场战争给砂拉越华人最深刻的教训便是：当战火燃起，无论是英国还是中国都保护不了远在砂拉越的子民，华人必须抛弃固有的移民思想，转而关心和保护脚下这片土地，并愿意与其他族群共同建设这个本应独立自主的国家，才可能避免再次遭受侵略和被掠夺的灾难。这种思维的转变让当地华人萌生了自强自救的民族意识，背负着的民族苦难激发了重塑民族精神的迫切需求。

Abstract

Sarawak was occupied by the Japanese during World War II. Like the Chinese in Singapore and Malaya, Sarawak Chinese community was also retaliated by the Japanese army for supporting China during the Anti-Japanese War. For the Chinese in Sarawak during WWII, the most profound lesson is: when the war breaks out, neither the UK nor China can protect them, they must abandon the inherent immigrant thinking and turn to protect this land by themselves, so they are willing to work with other ethnic groups to build their own country. This change of thinking gave the local Chinese a national consciousness of self-improvement and self-help, and the national suffering they were carrying inspired the urgent need to reshape the spirit of nationalism.
