the effort for independence was spearheaded by tunku abdul rahman, the first prime minister of malaysia, who led a delegation of ministers and political leaders of malaya in negotiations with the british in london for "merdeka", or independence along with the first president of the malaysian chinese association (mca) tun dato sir tan cheng lock and fifth president of malaysian indian congress tun v. t. sambanthan. once it became clear that the communist threat posed during the malayan emergency was petering out, agreement was reached on 8 february 1956, for malaya to gain independence from the british empire. however, logistical and administrative reasons led to the official proclamation of independence in the next year, on 31 august 1957, at stadium merdeka (independence stadium), in kuala lumpur, which was purposely built for the celebrations of national independence day. the announcement of the day was set months earlier by the tunku in a meeting of the alliance in melaka.
