ANZAC Square Korea Malaya Borneo Memorial
Korea Malaya and Borneo Memorial depicting soldiers in winter and jungle uniforms. The winter uniform signifies the struggle with the extreme weather conditions that faced the Australian troops during 1950-53. The northern winter was a stark contrast the oppresive heat and humidity thatthe personnel faced during the post-WW2 conflicts in Malaya and the Borneo. The cast bronze figures are fine in their detail and provide a suitable commemoration of those personnel who served and died in these conflicts.
This memorial is part of a group of memorials situated at Anzac Square, Brisbane. A map is available.
