Australia Assumes Responsibility for Colonial Holdings
Fire this event with the event command and the event ID news.238.
What happens
In an attempt to stand up to the increased threat against British holdings in Southeast Asia, the colonial territories of Singapore and Borneo have been transferred to Australia. With the goal of being the Commonwealth's first and best line of defense in the Pacific, Australia assumes full responsibility for military and administrative preparations in case of fighting in the region. Presumably intended to counter the imperial ambitions of Japan, Australia will no longer be entirely reliant on the efforts of its former colonial overlord to protect her shores from invasion.
