Creating 'Greater Malaysia': Decolonization and the Politics of Merger
---
Tan Tai Yong
A fascinating study of the formation of Malaysia demonstrating that it's only rationale was to serve the interests of Britain trying to dump its colonial obligations and the interests of the leaders of Malaysia and Singapore. The interests of the inhabitants of present day Sabah and Sarawak barely came into the equation. The inside story of the messy negotiations between Malaysia and Singapore reveals why Singapore's membership of the federation was short lived. Near Fine Paperback. First Edition. 224 pages with some black and white photographs, a bibliography, chronology and index.
