SINGAPORE: Singapore on Wednesday filed its written observations with the International Court of Justice over Malaysia’s application to revise a 2008 judgment that awarded Pulau Batu Puteh or Pedra Branca to the Republic.
In a statement on Thursday, Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the written observations are a “comprehensive rebuttal” to Malaysia’s application.
