{{Politics of Malaysia}}[[File:Diplomatic missions of Malaysia-2010-21-03.PNG|thumb|260px|right|Map of countries with diplomatic missions of Malaysia shown in blue.]]

[[Malaysia]] is an active member of various international organisations, including the [[Commonwealth of Nations]], the [[United Nations]], the [[Organisation of Islamic Cooperation]], and the [[Non-Aligned Movement]]. It has also in recent times been an active proponent of regional co-operation.

==Foreign Policy 1957–1969==

[[Malaysia]] has been a member of the Commonwealth since independence in 1957, when it entered into the [[Anglo-Malayan Defence Agreement]] (AMDA) with the United Kingdom whereby Britain guaranteed the defence of [[Federation of Malaya|Malaya]] (and later Malaysia). The presence of British and other Commonwealth troops were crucial to Malaysia's security during the [[Malayan Emergency]] (1948–1960) and the [[Indonesian Confrontation]] (1962–1966), which was sparked by Malaya's merger with the British colonies of Singapore, [[Crown Colony of Sarawak|Sarawak]] and [[Crown Colony of North Borneo|North Borneo]] to form Malaysia in 1963.

The British defence guarantee ended following Britain's decision in 1967 to withdraw its forces east of [[Suez]], and was replaced in 1971 with the [[Five Power Defence Arrangements]] (FPDA) by which Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and Singapore agreed to co-operate in the area of defence, and to "consult" in the event of external aggression or the threat of attack on Malaysia or Singapore. The FPDA continues to operate, and the Five Powers have a permanent Integrated Area Defence System based at [[Royal Malaysian Air Force|RMAF]] [[Butterworth, Malaysia|Butterworth]], and organise annual naval and air exercises.

Under the leadership of Prime Minister [[Tunku Abdul Rahman]] (up to 1970), Malaysia pursued a strongly pro-Commonwealth anti-communist foreign policy. Nonetheless, Malaysia was active in the opposition to [[apartheid]] that saw South Africa quit the Commonwealth in 1961, and was a founding member of the [[Association of Southeast Asian Nations]] (ASEAN) in 1967 and the [[Organisation of Islamic Cooperation|Organisation of the Islamic Conference]] (OIC) in 1969, with the Tunku as its first Secretary-General in 1971.

==Foreign policy since 1969==

Under Prime Minister [[Abdul Razak Hussein]], Malaysia shifted its policy towards non-alignment and neutrality. Malaysia's foreign policy is officially based on the principle of neutrality and maintaining peaceful relations with all countries, regardless of their ideology or political system, and to further develop relations with other countries in the region.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.kln.gov.my/web/guest/foreign_policy | title = Malaysia's Foreign Policy | access-date = 21 September 2010 | work = [[Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Malaysia)]] | archive-date = 4 July 2018 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180704114645/http://www.kln.gov.my/web/guest/foreign_policy | url-status = live }}</ref> In 1971, ASEAN issued its neutralist and anti-nuclear ''Zone of Peace, Freedom and Neutrality'' (ZOPFAN) Declaration. In the same year, Malaysia joined the [[Non-Aligned Movement]]. Consistent with this policy Malaysia established diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China in 1974.

This policy shift was continued and strengthened by Prime Minister [[Mahathir Mohamad]], who pursued a regionalist and pro-South policy with at times strident [[Anti-Western sentiment|anti-Western]] rhetoric. He long sought to establish an East Asian Economic Group as an alternative to [[APEC]], excluding Australia, New Zealand and the Americas, and during his premiership Malaysia signed up to an ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA) and ASEAN+3, a regional forum with China, Japan and South Korea

A strong tenet of Malaysia's policy is national sovereignty and the right of a country to control its domestic affairs.<ref name="dfat">{{cite web |url=http://www.dfat.gov.au/geo/malaysia/malaysia_brief.html |title=Malaysia country brief |publisher=dfat.gov.au |date=October 2010 |access-date=19 February 2011 |archive-date=27 October 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141027035312/http://www.dfat.gov.au/geo/malaysia/malaysia_brief.html |url-status=live }}</ref>
Malaysia views regional co-operation as the cornerstone of its foreign policy. It attaches a high priority to the security and stability of Southeast Asia, and has tried to strengthen relations with other Islamic states.<ref name="govtnz">{{cite web |url=http://www.asean.fta.govt.nz/malaysia-foreign-relations |title=Malaysia Foreign Relations &#124; ASEAN – Australia – New Zealand Free Trade Agreement |publisher=Asean.fta.govt.nz |date=4 December 2008 |access-date=18 September 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100526030946/http://www.asean.fta.govt.nz/malaysia-foreign-relations/ |archive-date=26 May 2010 }}</ref> Malaysia was a leading advocate of expanding ASEAN's membership to include Laos, Vietnam, and Burma, arguing that "[[constructive engagement]]" with these countries, especially Burma, will help bring political and economic changes. Malaysia is also a member of [[Group of 15|G-15]] and [[Group of 77|G-77]] economic groupings.

Despite Mahathir's frequently anti-Western rhetoric he worked closely with Western countries, and led a crackdown against Islamic fundamentalists after the [[11 September attacks]].

==International disputes==

The policy towards territorial disputes by the Malaysian government is one of pragmatism, solving disputes in a number of ways, including some resolved in the [[International Court of Justice]].

===Spratly and other islands in the South China Sea===

{{main|Spratly Islands dispute|Territorial disputes in the South China Sea}}

Malaysia has asserted sovereignty over the [[Spratly Islands]] together with China, the Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Brunei. Tensions have eased since 2002 "Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea". However, it is not the legally binding [[code of conduct]] sought by some parties.<ref name="CIA Disputes">{{cite web |url=https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2070.html |title=FIELD LISTING :: DISPUTES – INTERNATIONAL |publisher=CIA |access-date=26 October 2010 |archive-date=14 May 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110514215411/https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2070.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> Malaysia was not party to a March 2005 joint accord among the [[national oil company|national oil companies]] of China, the Philippines and Vietnam on conducting marine [[seismic]] activities in the Spratly Islands.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cpifa.org/cms/item/view?table=book&id=72|title=南海问题：历史经纬与共赢之道|publisher=中国人民外交学会(Chinese People's Institute of Foreign Affairs )|language=zh|date=25 June 2017|access-date=25 June 2017|archive-date=14 October 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211014023642/http://www.cpifa.org/cms/item/view?table=book&id=72|url-status=live}}</ref> Malaysia long maintained a low-key approach to the dispute, maintaining positive relations with China due to strong economic ties, a large ethnic Chinese population, and a desire for a balance of power in the region.<ref name="Response">{{cite news |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-southchinasea-malaysia-idUSKCN0YM2SV |title=As Beijing flexes muscles in South China Sea, Malaysia eyes harder response |author=Joseph Sipalan |work=[[Reuters]] |date=1 June 2016 |access-date=8 June 2016 |archive-date=14 October 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211014032205/https://www.reuters.com/article/us-southchinasea-malaysia-idUSKCN0YM2SV |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.philstar.com/headlines/2014/06/25/1338864/why-malaysia-unlike-philippines-keeps-quiet-sea-row|title=Why Malaysia, unlike Philippines, keeps quiet on sea row|author=Camille Diola|newspaper=[[The Philippine Star]]|date=25 June 2014|access-date=25 June 2014|archive-date=27 June 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140627165932/http://www.philstar.com/headlines/2014/06/25/1338864/why-malaysia-unlike-philippines-keeps-quiet-sea-row|url-status=live}}</ref> However, as Chinese fishing vessels and coast guard ships have become increasingly assertive,<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.theborneopost.com/2015/09/27/presence-of-china-coast-guard-ship-at-luconia-shoals-spooks-local-fishermen/|title=Presence of China Coast Guard ship at Luconia Shoals spooks local fishermen|newspaper=The Borneo Post|date=27 September 2015|access-date=28 September 2015|archive-date=29 September 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150929005731/http://www.theborneopost.com/2015/09/27/presence-of-china-coast-guard-ship-at-luconia-shoals-spooks-local-fishermen/|url-status=live}}</ref> Malaysia has increased its diplomatic and military responses.<ref name="Response"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.therakyatpost.com/news/2015/08/15/malaysia-lodges-diplomatic-protest-against-intrusion-at-beting-patinggi-ali/|title=Malaysia lodges diplomatic protest against intrusion at Beting Patinggi Ali|work=Bernama|publisher=The Rakyat Post|date=15 August 2015|access-date=16 August 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150929024442/http://www.therakyatpost.com/news/2015/08/15/malaysia-lodges-diplomatic-protest-against-intrusion-at-beting-patinggi-ali/|archive-date=29 September 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asiapacific/malaysia-slams-china-s/2200744.html |title=Malaysia slams China's 'provocation' in South China Sea |author1=Ben Blanchard |author2=Richard Pullin |agency=Reuters |publisher=Channel News Asia |date=18 October 2015 |access-date=20 October 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151019120244/http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asiapacific/malaysia-slams-china-s/2200744.html |archive-date=19 October 2015 }}</ref>

===Singapore===

Singapore [[Singapore in Malaysia|was a part of Malaysia for two years (1963–65)]], but it ultimately was asked by [[Tunku Abdul Rahman|Tunku]] to secede after increased racial tensions due to the election campaigns in 1964. Today, disputes continue among other things, over the pricing of deliveries of raw untreated water to Singapore, Singapore's land reclamation causing a negative environmental impact in Malaysian waters, a new bridge to replace the [[Johor-Singapore Causeway]] which Singapore does not want to pay for, maritime boundaries,<ref name="CIA Disputes"/> the redevelopment of Malayan Railway lands in Singapore and [[Pedra Branca, Singapore|Pedra Branca]]. Both parties however, agreed to [[International Court of Justice|ICJ]] arbitration on the island dispute. On 24 May 2008, the International Court of Justice ruled that Pedra Branca belonged to Singapore with the nearby Middle Rocks going to Malaysia.<ref name="CIA Disputes"/><ref name="MYIDPHSG"/> Regarding railway land in Singapore, see also [[Malaysia-Singapore Points of Agreement of 1990]]. On introducing budget flights between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, the stumbling block appears to be Malaysia's sympathy towards flag carrier [[Malaysia Airlines]], and preference for the existing near duopoly with Singapore Airlines.

===The Philippines===

The Dutch established relations with the [[Sultanate of Johor]] in the early 17th century, and in 1641 they captured the Portuguese colony of [[Melaka|Malacca]] (on the south-western coast of today's Peninsular Malaysia). With a long interruption during the [[Napoleonic Wars]], the [[Dutch Malacca]] era lasted until 1824.

In the 20th century, the Netherlands established diplomatic relations with Malaysia soon after the Asian state became independent. The erudite Dutch Sinologist and author [[Robert van Gulik]] (who was raised in the former Dutch East Indies himself) served as the ambassador of the Netherlands in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s. During his diplomatic service there he became closely acquainted with Malaysia's [[gibbon]]s (he kept a few in his ambassadorial residence) and became sufficiently interested in this ape species to start the study of [[Mind monkey|its role]] in ancient Chinese culture, the results of which he later published in his last book (''Gibbon in China'').<ref>Robert van Gulik, ''The gibbon in China.

==Malaysia and the Commonwealth of Nations==

The [[Federation of Malaya]] became an independent native [[elective monarchy]] within the [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]] on 31 August 1957 with the [[Yang di-Pertuan Agong]] as head of state.

Malaya united with [[Crown Colony of North Borneo|North Borneo]] (now [[Sabah]]), [[Crown Colony of Sarawak|Sarawak]], and [[Singapore]] to form [[Malaysia]] on 16 September 1963.

Singapore was expelled from Malaysia on 9 August 1965, and became an independent [[republic in the Commonwealth of Nations]].
