Official Report, 20 December 1965, Vol 24, Issue 7 · Open in the reader (summaries, search, filters)

++That this House urges the Singapore Government to adopt a foreign policy friendly to Afro-Asian countries, and to resume trade immediately with Indonesia; to get rid of foreign bases which allow Singapore to be drifted into the aggressive war against the newly emerging countries, and to stand with the Afro-Asian people to support the Vietnamese people in their struggle against United States military intervention.

Mr Speaker: The Member for Jurong is not present in the House; neither is the Member for Thomson. I have not received a written request from the Member for Jurong that another Member of this House should move this motion. Therefore, the motion, under the Standing Orders, lapses.

Mr Leader, will you move the motion for the adjournment?
