Summary/Abstract |
In ancient times, Singapore - earlier known as Tamaseek - was linked to the
Greater India economy and culture through India’s expanding maritime trade.3
The modern-day relationship between India and Singapore can be traced to
1891 when Stamford Raffles convinced the East India Company administration
to make the trading station of Singapore (en route to the Straits of Malacca)
a British base between South and Southeast Asia.4
Thus, Singapore became a
crown colony, governed from Calcutta till 1867. Singapore’s Foreign Minister,
George Yeo, called modern Singapore the ‘daughter of Kolkata’.5
Later, this
British strategic enclave became the base of Indian nationalists fighting British
imperialism from abroad, with Subhas Chandra Bose setting up the Indian
National Army in Singapore in July 1943. From 21 October 1943 onwards,
the Provincial Government of Azad Hind functioned from Singapore till it was
moved to Rangoon on 7 January 1944. Singapore became a part of Malaya in
1962, but broke away in 1965 as an independent republic. The relationship
between India and Singapore survived the difficult terrain of the Cold War to
become what Prime Minister Modi calls, the ‘warmest and closest’
relationship.
