Singapore is not a part of Malaysia

At least “not since 1965″!
Recently a metblog singapore reader [1] and friend of mine pointed out something which has been eating at me for a while as well. He asked me, “if it’s ‘melbourne, australia’ on the Metblogs Melbourne [2] header, shouldn’t it be ’singapore, singapore’ on ours?”
Of course if you looked at the Metblogs Kuala Lumpur [3] site, it does say “Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia”. It seems to follow a city, country format. However, being one of 3 modern city states in the world [4], shouldn’t we be SIngapore, Singapore?
We’re not a part of Malaysia, not since 1965 [1]! And for those who are wondering, we’re not a part of China either [5].
