Every time we look back on this moment when we signed this agreement which severed Singapore from Malaysia, it will be a moment of anguish. For me it is a moment of anguish because all my life β¦ you see, the whole of my adult life β¦ I have believed in Malaysia, merger and the unity of these two territories. You know, itβs a people, connected by geography, economics and ties of kinship β¦ Would you mind if we stop for a while?
