I thought that was a typo - not Malaya but Malaysia. Because I've heard of Malaysia but I've never heard of Malaya. Malaya was a British colony until 1957. Then it was its own country until 1963, when it joined with Singapore, Sabah, and Sarawak to form Malaysia. Golly gosh. 1 Quote

Alpo Posted November 8, 2025 Posted November 8, 2025 I've heard of the Malayan peninsula. I've heard of the Malay pirates. I've heard of Malay loads. But I always thought the country was Malaysia. Like I've heard of Aussie this and Aussie that, but the country is not Aussie - it's Australia. Quote

The Malayan Emergency was very similar to the Vietnam War (Which we were also involved in) for Australia. 1 2 Quote

Singapore gained self-governance in 1959 and, in 1963, became part of the new federation of Malaysia, alongside Malaya, North Borneo, and Sarawak. Ideological differences led to Singapore's expulsion from the federation two years later; Singapore became an independent sovereign country in 1965. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore#Within_Malaysia An useless fact, Singapore recruits Gurkhas for part of their police force: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurkha_Contingent Edited November 8, 2025 by Chantry 1 3 Quote
