Default CMPs for Malaya

I am trying to check whether it is possible that some Chevrolets CMPs were assembled in Liverpool for left-over crates in 1947 and then shipped to Malaya. It does not ring true to me as the official DND papers suggest that some left over were assembled into 1946 by the Ministry of Supply. Is there any evidence of CMPs being shipped back from Canada post-war to the UK and thence to Malaya/Singapore? I can imagine refurbs being sold on but did the Canadian Government sell/supply left-over new trucks to other Commonwealth countries?
