SINGAPORE: Singapore will op­­pose Malaysia’s application for in­­­ter­pretation of the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) 2008 Judgment in the case concerning sovereignty over Pedra Branca, Middle Rocks and South Ledge.

In a statement yesterday, the Singaporean Foreign Affairs Mi­­nistry noted that Malaysia’s ap­­plication for interpretation filed on Friday was additional to, and separate from, its Feb 2, 2017 application for revision of the ICJ’s judgment.
