Malaysia & Singapore relationship
I would relate Malaysia & Singapore relationship to China & Taiwan Relationship. Where Taiwan is KMT last post. Singapore was requested to leave Malaysia.
I would like to see Singapore integrated back into Malaysia and later form a more integrated Asean.
Malaysia may ask Singapore to be represented in Malaysia Parliment, Senate and King counsel, and work their way into integration.
Similar China should ask Taiwan into their politbureau, and work on integration from there.
