FollowsPotsdam Conference

The Singapore Conference, also known as the Pacific Closure and code-named the Minotaur Conference, held December 14–17, 1945, held between the heads of government of the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union to discuss the postwar reorganization and reconstruction of Asia, with similar aims to the Cairo Conference in 1943. The three states were represented by President Henry A. Wallace, Prime Minister Clement Atlee, and Premier Joseph Stalin, respectively. Controversially, the leadership of China was not represented at the conference due to the ongoing Chinese Civil War, although Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek signaled his approval for the conference. The conference was held in the British crown colony of Singapore within the Straits Settlements, at the Government House of Singapore, now known as the Istana.

The main focus of the conference was regarding Japan, having surrendered weeks earlier following the preliminary stages of Operation Downfall and a nuclear strike, on Victory over Japan Day. The Partition of Japan, the establishment of the East Asian Peace Council, as well as the establishment of post-war order and the Hokkaido Exchange.

Similar Swedish aid was to go to Cambodian and Laotian civilians affected by the Indochinese fighting. This support was primarily humanitarian in nature and included no military aid.

The Tunku had been personally responsible for Malaya's partisan support of the South Vietnamese regime in its fight against the Vietcong and, in reply to a Parliamentary question on 6 February 1962, he had listed all the used weapons and equipment of the Royal Malaya Police given to Saigon. These included a total of 45,707 single-barrel shotguns, 611 armoured cars and smaller numbers of carbines and pistols. Writing in 1975, he revealed that "we had clandestinely been giving 'aid' to Vietnam since early 1958. Published American archival sources now reveal that the actual Malaysian contributions to the war effort in Vietnam included the following: "over 5,000 Vietnamese officers trained in Malaysia; training of 150 U.S. soldiers in handling Tracker Dogs; a rather impressive list of military equipment and weapons given to Viet-Nam after the end of the Malaysian insurgency (for example, 641 armored personnel carriers, 56,000 shotguns); and a creditable amount of civil assistance (transportation equipment, cholera vaccine, and flood relief)". It is undeniable that the Government's policy of supporting the South Vietnamese regime with arms, equipment and training was regarded by some quarters, especially the Opposition parties, as a form of interfering in the internal affairs of that country and the Tunku's valiant efforts to defend it were not convincing enough, from a purely foreign policy standpoint.
