During World War II, Operation Zipper was a British plan to capture either Port Swettenham or Port Dickson, Malaya as staging areas for the recapture of Singapore. But it was never executed. The planned deception for this attack was called Operation Slippery.

Operation Tiderace was instead put into action following the surrender of Japan.
