Revision Questions  When was Malaysia formed?  Which are the states involved?  Where is the central government?

Malaysia - Government  Ruling Political Party – Alliance Party  Prime Minister of Malaysia – Tunku Abdul Rahman

I prefer to watch soccer with my buddy on Saturday nights, dear I want to go for movies on Saturday nights, darling Do you think the couple came to a compromise? How important will this be to the marriage?

I’ll watch soccer with my friends only one Saturday per month, alright? It’s ok, dear. Maybe I’ll watch a movie with my friends sometimes.

I hope we can continue to stay with my parents from now on. Imagine the two old folks alone at home … I can’t stand your parents. I never want to see them ever! Do you think the couple came to a compromise? How important will this be to the marriage?

But I can’t abandon my parents. I might have to choose my parents over you… If you want me to stay with your parents, I’ll leave you!

Reasons why Merger failed  3 main reasons 1.Awkward Relations 2.Treatment of Malays 3.Economic policies

[1] Awkward Relations P.A.P and Alliance Party did not get along well. Why? SingaporeMalaysia 1963 P.A.P won 37 out of 51 seats in 1963 election. A.P. in KL wanted A.P. in Singapore to win. A.P. in Singapore did not win any seats. A.P. leaders angry 1964 P.A.P. wanted to play a larger role in Central Government. Took part in Federal Election in Malaya in Promised to build an united Malaysia, regardless of races. A.P. leaders angry although P.A.P. won only one seat. Why? - Worried that P.A.P would become more popular in KL.

[1] Awkward Relations May 1965 P.A.P brought together 4 Malaysian opposition parties to form Malaysian Solidarity Convention (MSC) MSC promised to have a Malaysia in which all religions are treated fairly. Oct 1964 A.P. in Singapore reorganized themselves to try and win in 1967 election.A.P. leaders angry because they gave Malays in Malaysia special rights.

[2] Disagreement over treatment of Malays P.A.P and A.P. have different ideas about how the Malays should be treated. SingaporeMalaysia P.A.P wanted all races to be equal. They did not support Central Government policy of giving special privileges to Malays A.P. unhappy P.A.P did not agree. UMNO leaders launched anti-PAP campaign. Utusan Melayu printed articles on issue

[3] Disagreement over economic policies of Central Government SingaporeMalaysia PAP hoped that Common Market would benefit Singapore. Central Government did not do anything about the Common Market.
