Indonesia was against the idea of merger in the beginning
They felt strongly that they should not join Malaysia
They tried to resolve the problem but failed to reach any agreement
Indoneasian troops started to attack Sabah and Sarawak and tried to take control of these areas
as
They wanted to help Singapore
They wanted to rid the Communists in Singapore
It was for their benefit
The Communists
Who caused
riots
strikes
Shortage of jobs
wich worsened with an increasing population
HOWEVER
The PAP members who supported the communists did not want merger as they were afraid that the Malayan government would bring them under control
They then called the people to vote if they wanted merger or not
The results were that 71% of the people voted for merger of Singapore, Malaya, Sabah and Sarawak
