Australia to return Christmas Island back to Singapore
-
If then, What about the Cocos-Keeling Islands that were transferred to Australia in 1955 under a particular act?
Please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocos_Islands -
From site quoted above :
"After the Fall of Singapore in 1942 during World War II, the islands were administered under Ceylon (Sri Lanka), while West Island and Direction Island were placed under Allied military administration. On the night of 8/9 May 1942, gunners of the Ceylon Garrison Artillery on Horsburgh Island rebelled. Their mutiny was crushed and three of them were to be the only British Commonwealth soldiers to be executed for mutiny during the Second World War. In 1946 the administration of the islands was reverted back to Singapore.?
