Brunei and Malaysia

Tunku Abdul Rahman and most of his senior cabinet ministers, including Tun Abdul Razak, Razali Ismail and Tan Siew Sin, met with the Sultan of Brunei to negotiate conditions including:

• The number of seats in legislature and parliament
• Control of oil, gas and mineral exploration
• Production, monetary autonomy and Brunei's earlier investments
• Method of taxation
• Authority in education and welfare (sovereign wealth fund)
• Matters of religion and citizenship
• The security of Brunei, and the position of the Sultan
• The status of Brunei within the proposed new federation of Malaysia.

Brunei pulled out of the negotiations before the Malaysia Agreement was signed on 9 July 1963 and subsequently became independent from the United Kingdom on 1 January 1984.
