On 16 September 1963, Singapore joined the Federation of Malaya together with Sabah and Sarawak to form Malaysia. The union, however, was rocky from the start. Distrust and ideological differences between leaders of the State of Singapore and the federal government of Malaysia resulted in frequent disagreement in politics, economic, financial and social policies. In 1965, Malaysia Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman decided upon the secession of Singapore from the Federation, leading to the Independence of Singapore on 9 August 1965.

Took this photo while visiting (a museum in) Singapore with family last December. Not a good quality since I only used my phone camera.

Masa tahun2 akhir Tunku Abdul Rahman sblm meninggal, dia slalu ckp yg dia menyesal pisahkan Singapore ngan Malaysia,huhu..kekadang kita ni yg muda (ceewahh) tak tahu pengorbanan org2 lama dlm tentukan masa depan kita ni..kita hanya tahu sejarah tapi tanpa penghayatan sbnrnya..
