15 years ago, europeans though singapore belongs to malaysia and some even went to china ot look for singapore.

for the younger singaporeans, singapore was rank which position in malaysia?

i also not sure 13th or 10th. but i saw the singapore flag as one of their states in a malaysia consulate in paris. anyway make no difference as we are independent now.
