History Of Scout Malaysia
Scouting was first introduced in Singapore in 1908, but was officially founded on July 2, 1910, when young Scoutmaster
Frank Cooper Sands arrived in Singapore from Nottingham and established two Boy Scout troops in Singapore for the children
of the British colonists. From there, the movement spread to other parts of the Straits Settlements and what were to become
the states of Malaysia. Sands spent the next 40 years helping to create Scouting in the region, and is often called the "Father
of Malayan Scouting".
