The British was anti-communist and worried that Malaya and Singapore would fall under the influence of communism in their struggle for independence. This fear was heightened after the communist party took control of China in 1949. The British worried that some Chinese immigrants would help to spread communism in these two colonies.  The of development MCP prompted the British to introduce constitutional changes in Malaya and Singapore to ensure that the government in these two colonies was formed by non communist members.

Communism is a political theory that give a citizen necessaries of life and nothing else. There is no differentiation of class. The wealth should be shared among all citizens. Citizens are taught and trained from young to see the ruler as God and to believe whatever he says. As result, the citizens turn to 'robots' with a fixed mind set.
In my opinion, the British feared that there might be a spread also known as the domino effect among the Asia region. They did not want to people to be confined in a place and they believed in freedom of mankind.
Both communism and terrorism plant false ideas about justice in a person's mind. They brainwash the people to use them as future fighters and shields to protect the rulers from threats and attacks. They make people believe in them through propagandas and persuasive speeches in progress of taking power. In a way, there can be an end to communism like when the communist regimes disappear or turn to other political orientations. However, we cannot tell whether terrorism is gone or not. We can capture all the terrorists known but there might be some out there in the world that we do not know about. They can start a new terrorism group and go around the cycle of terrorism again.

1)the characteristics are that everyones wealth will be equal no one will richer or poorer.
2)It is percieved as a threat as the British and USSR have different idealogies. From WW2 ,USSR emerged as a superpower. This means that USSR's sphere of influence is strengthen . This means many of the devasted European states would fall under communism which in turn affects the economy of Britian . Hnece is percieved as a threat .

Two characteristics of communism are the elimination of unfair gaps in income,each individual is paid compensation to his needs, and the provision of necessaries in life, in communist system, the state is responsible to provide work and compensation according to the capabilities of every individual.

It was percevied as a threat as the british was anti communist and if the people felt that communism was better, it would turn against the british.

Communism and terrorism have similarities.One of them is that they both share a belief, Communism belives that everyone should be equal while terrorism belives that their religion(for example) is the greatest.People who believe in this will be followers

Communism is an economic and idealogy expressed in the communist policy.
The first characteristics of communism is class struggle,It begins with primitive communist societies, where all members depend equally on whatever the society produces. Private land ownership has no meaning and individuals are entirely free. The second characteristics of communism is socialism, in a socialized system, the state comes to control all of the utility and major economic systems. Banks and all social services are nationalized. With careful centralized planning, a purely communist society that no longer needs money, trade, profits or wages evolves.The british are against communist as if communist gets the power than they will become insignificant just like a common man. So they used the media to spread lies about communism..thus they moved common peoples mind away from truth. The similarites between communism and terrorism is although communism is just a set of ideologies and terrorism is the use of violence in pursuit of political goals, the people who practice communism in the Soviet Union,China,Vietnam and North Korea use many similar methods with modern days terrorists such as using propaganda to recruit members, destroy valuable cultural artifacts,bombing public places,recruit children into army… In fact, many communist governments applied terrorism acts to gain their political aims and modern days terrorists have learned and developed those tactics over the years to deal with Western countries .

Communism is an economic and political ideology expressed in the Communist Manifesto by German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Marx and Engels based their writing in turn on the ideas of the utopian socialists from France and British economists of the 18th century.

Communism was viewed as a threat by the British because unlikely of goals and point of view.

communism is equal rights and earnings among different income groups. it aims for equality but it defies against the british as the britsh wanted to rule democratically unlike the communist, therefore they were known for being "anti-communists". The british did not how communism worked as its all about being "equal" and having "the same substantial rights" despite their backgrounds be it poor or rich or how far they have achieved. Terrorism and communism are both similar due to the fact that they base all their means on propaganda. They'll brainwash them by sugar-coating all the carefully-thought out statements and announcements of any sorts and only talk about how "good" and "beneficial" they are. They are also similar due to the fact that they both involve/result to killing and cruelty against the people who went against or those they see as an opposing threat to them. At the end of the day, their main goal is to rule their desired country to rule over and overpower the people who were currently "ruling" that country, like the Malayan who was under the Brtish rule.

People living in the communist country each have the same status, no rich or poor. Also theres only one person that is running the entire country

It was a threat as they have a different political views. The British is a democratic country and is against communism

Both are similar as both spread their ideas and concepts to gain support. They use propaganda to make people believe that what they are doing is right thus brainwashing them.

Communism consists of a ruler over a region or country. Communism spreads every fast and might affect neighboring countries. People are to follow orders given by the leader. These people don't even know if what they are doing is right or wrong. The British saw communism as a treat as they were in the process of gaining independence. They also didn't like the way people were treated like how a job is pushed onto oneself when the country needs it. The British go around and provide people with facilities such as schools. The British were also anti-communist.

Communism is something like having one ruler over a region or country. People have to follow everything that the leader says which made it a virtual prison for people. The people are like robot machines following whatever is being said without knowing whether what they are doing is right or wrong.

The people living in communist countries are treated equally, regardless of their achievements. Means of production are controlled by the state which means no one can own his or her own business or produce his or her own goods because the state owns everything.

Communism was perceived as a threat by the British as they had different political perspective and goals. The British practices democracy, which is different from communism.

Communism and terrorism is similar because both of them need a lot of propaganda and persuasive speech to make people believe in an ideology. These propaganda are used to brainwash people so that they will join them. Another reason why they are similar is because they want to have the power to erase history and culture among with mass killing of the intellects who raise consciousness about their action.

2 characteristics of communism is that wealth is shared among the citizens in the country,and no one is richer than the other and no one is above anyone.

Communism usually believes that only one person is needed to rule the entire country, all other people will just have to follow the 'leader'.  They also believe that everyone should be treated equally(But not fairly).

It was a threat to the British as it gave them a bad name.

The similarities between communism and terrorism is that both try to spread their ideas and concepts by holding the people with an iron fist. Terrorists use terror to gain support and Commies use 'equality' and a 'great' ruler(dictator) to gain support. They are similar as they're both bad.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the characteristics of communism is that everything is equal and shared. All of them are viewed commonly and that everyone is treated the same and must have a job. The other characteristics is that the people have limited human rights like for example they do not have rights to vote and the leader is chosen solely by the communist party. They are denied freedom of speech, right to choose their job and right to free market. The British perceived it as a threat as communism is bad in thee way that they use force to control the people and that acts of defiance will result in them being sent to camps to be brainwashed. Communism started out in the USSR but has spread to neighbouring countries and the British feared that this might lead to a Domino effect where more and more countries will be affected by the communists.
The similarities between communism and terrorism is that both uses force to control the people the people. They also make use of propagandas to brsainwashed the people and also they usually opposed the governments or rulers and thus they gain support from those who wants to overthrow the government.

Communism is sharing the wealth equally among everybody . This sentence means that there will be no upper , middle or lower classes people. Communism equals to no poverty , communism flourished in the Soviet Union (USSR).
Communism is perceived as a threat by the British as communism itself is bad,due to a few reasons , there is the domino effect where communism spreads quickly to the other countries. The other reasons is since Money buys power and that powers make more money thus people would not want to lose money causing it to be a big threat to the British.
The use of propaganda is similar between terrorism and communism , they both uses propaganda to brain wash the people like what happened in the Vietnam war and Korean War ,these two communism and terrorism are both serious cases and a big threat to everybody these two things are just heartless and a cruel thing someone can do.

I think that both communism and terrorism are a major threat to the world. Both can cause a huge change and make the world a hell like place to live in. Both stared by one group or individual but now being carried out by many people and groups. I think that communism and terrorism started mainly because of the unfairness in a country or may have just stared by people who just wants to oppose the government and specific group of people. They are seldom used to take over some regions and are both carried out by a violent manner

They are both very similar in the sense that they both have spies all over the world and take power of what we have by force without our consent.
They both are also very extreme

Mr Lim here. I hope that you guys have a better understanding of Communism after the lesson.

Task:
All of us know that terrorism is currently a big threat. Groups like ISIS have admitted responsibility to the recent bombing in Baghdad, Iraq. (http://edition.cnn.com/2016/07/07/middleeast/iraq-baghdad-bomb-toll-rises/)

As a reflection process, I would like all of you to think the possible similarities between terrorism and communism using these questions to help you.

1. Name the characteristics of communism (at least 2 aspects)
2. Explain why was it perceived as a threat by the British?
3. In your opinion, what are the similarities between Communism and Terrorism?
