City of Singapore (historical entity)
The City of Singapore was the capital city of the Colony of Singapore, a British crown colony, and later served as the state capital of the State of Singapore within Malaysia, administered by the City Council as its local governing authority. Before 1951, the City Council was known as the Municipal Commission, and the area was referred to as the Town of Singapore. Singapore was formally accorded city status by the United Kingdom in 1951. The remainder of the crown colony outside the urban boundaries was administered separately by the Singapore Rural Board. The city functioned as the capital of Singapore until its abolishment in 1965. Today, the former city boundary broadly corresponds to the modern Central Area, which sits in the south-eastern corner of the main island.
