Taiping War Cemetery is a major Allied war cemetery in Malaysia. It contains the graves of 826 Allied soldiers of the Commonwealth fighting the Japanese in the "Campaign in Malaya" of December 1941 - February 1942. The casulties include soldiers from the Royal Malay Regiment, Gurkha, British and Australian troops. The cemetery is maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (external website here), just like the Hyaukkyant Allied War Cemetery in Bago, Myanmar.
