The correct answer is 1. Singapore seceded from Malaysia because its primarily Chinese population was facing threats and conflict from the Malay majority of the country.

On September 16, 1963, Malaya, Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak, officially formed Malaysia. The union economically benefited Singapore with the creation of a common free market, eliminating tariffs and alleviating unemployment.

But after a year, the racial tensions began. In particular, the Chinese population of Singapore was the most affected, especially by the policy of positive discrimination against the Malaysian collective, which granted them privileges according to Article 153 of the Constitution of Malaysia. Lee Kuan Yew and other Singapore political leaders fought for the equality of all races in Malaysia.

There were many disturbances between the two races, and a curfew was established to restore order. The most famous disturbances were the Racial Riots of 1964, which began on the day of Muhammad's birth on July 21, leaving twenty-three dead and several hundred wounded. During the riots, transportation was interrupted, and consequently food prices soared, causing serious hardship to the people.

In the absence of alternatives to avoid the continued bloodshed, Malaysian Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman decided to expel Singapore from the federation. On August 9, 1965 the expulsion of Singapore was put to the vote in the Malaysian Parliament, ending with a crushing 126-0 in favor.
