 Agreement relating to the separation of Singapore from Malaysia as an independent and sovereign state at Wikisource | |
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.[2]
