Published by the Ministry of Culture, this booklet tells of the separation of Singapore from Malaysia, making Singapore an independent sovereign state. It reproduces the contents of the 9 August 1965 Proclamation of the Republic of Singapore and the Proclamation on Singapore (by Malaysia) of the same date. It then provides a background to the lead-up to separation and its implications.
