Malaysians
are unique compared
to the other countries for the reason that the great effort for their
independence did not cause blood spills, loss of lives or property, or
involve any arms rebellion. Malaya's independence was made potential due
to a crucial element various nations did not achieve – the courageous unity in
spite of the various ethnic groups, cultures and religions. This unity and
harmony turn out to be the main strength, and the base for the Alliance Party
to carry on with the discussion with the British to claim Malaya's
Independence.
According to Lamography
Magazine declared that “The first Prime Minister
of Malaysia, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra spearheaded the effort for independence, leading a delegation of
ministers and political leaders of Malaya (now Malaysia) in negotiations with
the British in London for Independence. Agreement was reached on February 8, 1956, for Malaya to gain independence." In
the sequences, as Tunku arrived in Malaya returning from London he brought
good
news that
independence would finally come to Malaya. Then the independence was authorized
declared that independence was made the next year, on August 31, 1957, at Stadium Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur. It was great and successful moment
after great effort and long endurance; we gain our independence which was gone
in 1511.
