The Independence of Singapore Agreement 1965 was a major agreement between the Government of Malaysia and the Government of Singapore on 7 August 1965 that granted independence to Singapore.
The agreement included a Proclamation on Singapore to be made by Malaysian Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman; a different Proclamation of Singapore was made by Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew.
As a result of the agreement, Singapore became a sovereign country distinct and separate from Malaysia, and a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, with effect from 9 August 1965. The Singapore Act 1966 followed the treaty a year after.[1]
Background
Singapore first achieved sovereignty on 3 June 1959 from the United Kingdom. From 1959 to 1963, Singapore was a country with full internal self-governance, but the British colonial administration still controlled external relations, similar to the Irish Free State.
On 16 September 1963, the Proclamation of Malaysia was declared, which declared the merger of the Federation of Malaya with the other British crown colonies of North Borneo, Sarawak and Singapore into the new Malaysia. With this, Singapore subsequently joined Malaysia as an autonomous state. This union proved tenuous due to various factors, and would end up lasting for just 1 year, 10 months and 24 days before this agreement became effective.
