Singapore Government dated 1 June 1966 The Secretary-General of the United Nations acting in his capacity as depositary the following:[1] English and French Registered No. I-8206
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.
