Germany and Ottoman Empire both have influence in the Malay States during the period of World War One. The influence of the Germans could be seen in global economy including in Singapore and Penang. But what about the other country in the Southeast Asia? And was there any Ottoman influence in the other country in the Southeast Asia other than in the Malay States? Thanks in advance.
What are your parameters in terms of influence and the geographical scope of South East Asia? The Germans did have an important base from 1898 until it was captured by the Allies, mainly Japanese forces, in 1914 in Tsingtao which was intended to promote German interests in the region. Although of course it was physically located in China.
My parameters is in terms of politics, economy or social influence. The geographical scope of South East Asia is about any country in Southeast Asia. So far i have studied the influence of German businesses in the Malay States (Now Malaysia and Singapore). The German have some companies in Singapore and Penang such as the Behn, Meyer and Co. and others. But is there any more company or businesses in other country let say in Thailand, Philippine or Indonesia?
