Yes there were 5.5" guns in Malaya.
I knew a guy who served with them. He said that if there was a village being particularly rebellious they would set the guns up nearby and fire into an uninhabited area. Seems like a very expensive way to annoy someone ! Not exactly the way to win people over either....
