Relations between Malaysia and Singapore have been maintained due to joint military exercises carried out to counter terrorist attacks and bring about some professional interaction with the Singapore Armed forces and the Royal Malaysian Army. Also land reclamation agreement reached by these two countries over the land in and around the Straits of Johor is note worthy. Disagreements on water pricing, relocation of Malaysian customs away from the Tanjung Pagar Train station in Singapore but under Malaysian ownership, awarding special status to ethnic Malays have been noted.
