Tom Bierdz asked Khaled Talib:

Who founded Singapore?

Khaled Talib Officially, Sir Stamford Raffles, though the Hindu king Parameswara had arrived earlier by ship. Personally, Singapore was never lost. The Malays knew exactly where it was. There was already a populace before Raffles arrived. The Dutch knew about it and Raffles moved in quickly and created a Sultan to claim it.
Singapore was part of the Malayan territory, which already had a thriving history with Sultans and all.
So, who founded Singapore? The Malays.
