| 总结: | When Singapore was incorporated into Malaysia in 1963, there were many expectations from the Singapore Malays for the improvement of their socio-economic malaise. However, when the separation of Singapore from Malaysia was announced in 1965, it caused many reactions and responses from them. Specifically, the separation detached their political relations from their brothers across the causeway and forced them to become a minority once again. The separation destroyed their hope for a reunion with their brothers in the peninsula after years of political separation since the Malayan Union. For them, the separation was received emotionally because of the close ties between the Malays in both countries. Subsequently, it resulted in a change of mindset and worldview among the Malays. The separation transformed Singapore into a global and metropolitan city. As a result, we can see a degree of the de-Malayanisation on the Malays' cultural outlook as compared to the Malays in Malaysia. Besides, the separation established a dilemma among them about their socio-economic future. This research aims to study their reactions from this political separation from 1965 until 1972. This qualitative research is based on primary sources like newspapers and interviews which are available in libraries and archives. The study of the Singapore Malays' reactions and their attitudes after the separation is based on the contextual analysis of these primary sources with secondary sources providing the background of the event. |
