「新中國劇團」在馬來亞的民間外交活動與宣傳研究

The New China Art Troupe’s People-to-People Diplomacy Activities and Propaganda in Malaya

1939至1941年，「新中國劇團」在馬來亞進行訪問活動，是中國共產黨在馬來亞初次民間外交嘗試。對於這一訪問活動，該團前期進行較多自我調適，並切實執行中共「公開合法」的左翼宣傳要求。同時，該團取得國民黨「新桂系」的信任，因此，訪問馬來亞得以成行，豁免受到國民政府的監督。訪問期間，因對於英日的目標與判斷的不同，「新中國劇團」與馬來亞共產黨產生分歧，對於訪問活動與二者關係造成不利影響。在馬來亞，「新中國劇團」與本土普通華人群體、華人領袖、中國藝術家、南來文人進行接洽聯繫，並得到支持。英國政府對「新中國劇團」有限的管控，及「新中國劇團」策略性的活動宣傳，最終使該公演取得成效。

From 1939 to 1941, the New China Art Troupe made a visit to Malaya, which was the first person-to-people diplomacy attempt of the Communist Party in Malaya. For this visit, this troupe has made a lot of self-adjustment in the early stage and earnestly implemented the publicity requirements of Public and legal left-wing politics put forward by the Communist Party. Furthermore, the This troupe gained the trust of the Kuomintang Party’s New Guangxi Clique, allowing Malaya to be visited without being supervised by the Nationalist government. During the visit, due to the difference between the New China Art Troupe and the Malayan Communist Party in their goals and judgments towards Britain and Japan, the visit and the relationship between the two parties have been adversely affected. In Malaya, the New China Art Troupe established relations with Malayan Chinese, overseas Chinese leader, Chinese artists and South-coming Intellectual, and obtained fundraising. The visit was successful due to the British government’s limited authority over the New China Art Troupe and the troupe’s strategic publicity.
