Indonesia–Singapore relations are foreign bilateral relations between Republic of Indonesia and Republic of Singapore. Over the years, Indonesia and Singapore have maintained regular exchanges of high-level visits. The relations are underpinned by strong economic cooperation. In the past few years, Singapore has consistently been Indonesia's top foreign investor. Singapore and Indonesia also cooperate across a wide range of sectors, including health, defence and the environment. The relations between Indonesia and Singapore are stemmed from proximity. Singapore is one of the nearest neighboring country of Indonesia. The city-state nation is engulfed by Indonesian territory in west, south, and east, sandwiched between Malaysia and Indonesia. Both nations are founders of ASEAN, members of the Non-Aligned Movement and APEC. ==History== The relations between ancient Indonesia and Singapore dated back from the period of ancient kingdoms, the straits region was part of Srivijaya’s realm back in 7th century. The Nagarakretagama, a Javanese epic poem written in 1365 during Majapahit era, also referred to a settlement on the island called Temasek ('Sea Town' in Old Javanese, spelt ''Tumasik''). In the 1390s, a Palembang prince, Parameswara, fled to Temasek after being deposed by the Majapahit kingdom. During the 14th century, Singapore was caught in the struggle between Siam (now Thailand) and the Java-based Majapahit Empire for control over the Malay Peninsula. According to Sejarah Melayu, Singapore was defeated in one Majapahit attack. He ruled the island for several years, before being forced to Melaka where he founded the Sultanate of Malacca.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://countrystudies.us/singapore/3.htm )〕 In early 19th century, Singapore was under British control as Straits Settlements and later as Crown colony, while at the same period Indonesian archipelago gradually fell under control of Dutch East Indies Company and Dutch East Indies. After the independence of Indonesia in 1945 and the separation of Singapore from Malaysia in 1965, both countries opened bilateral diplomatic ties officially on 1966. In 1967, both countries together with Thailand, Philippines and Malaysia founded ASEAN to ensure the peace and stability in the region. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Indonesia–Singapore relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
