the factors that led to the formation of Malaysia and elaborate on the strong opposition to the merger from Indonesia and the Philippines.

The formation of Malaysia was  a very complicated process  because of many quarters were cautious and doubtful about that. But finally Malaysia was born because motivation was sufficient to stimulate the leader and the people in countries concerned. The factors of formation of Malaysia was successful because of few factors  like  Independence  Through Unification, that’s only Malaysia was free from any outside power after Independence on 31 August 1957, Understanding For Development, one of reasons by all future member countries was the question of fostering regional understanding and creating one united nation for the progress of the country and the people .the existing potential in any country more easily developed under strong central administration. Ethnic balance and unity, maintaining a balance between non-Bumiputras  and Bumiputras. Collective Fight Against Communism, Malaya was exposed to the communist threat even though the Emergency that lasted twelve years because of the communist terrorists, was over, the task of fighting communism would definitely be greater for a country to do it alone. Economic cooperation, Kuala Lumpur is highly regional cooperation in economic. United in International relations, Kuala Lumpur wanted to reinforce the pact among the regional countries so that they would not only be stronger internally but also in the international arena as well. That is a factor for formation of Malaysia and on 27 May 1961 Tunku Abdul Rahman has mention to press conference about the plant of political and economic cooperation among the countries in Malaysia. The merger among Philippines was fail because the President Macapagal claimed Sabah was originally a part of Filipino territory. Indonesia`s also take a same way like the Philippines because The President Sukarno launched a confrontation policy against Malaya on 20 January 1963. Sukarno ground for opposing the formation of Malaysia was because Kuala Lumpur had ignored Indonesia in Malaya`s plans to set up a new country, while Indonesia was a neighbor and friends to Malaya. And he also claimed Malaysia to be a new kind of political structure (new colonialism) that would ignore Indonesia interest and weaken the spirit of the Malay Archipelago.
