Kajian ini membincangkan perkembangan hubungan antara Malaysia dengan British pada era pentadbiran Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra al-haj antara tahun 1957 sehingga 1970. Isu yang diberi tumpuan ialah isu dekolonisasi Brunei yang sangat penting kepada Malaysia dan Britain. Kajian ini menggunakan metodologi sejarah, iaitu analisis dokumen dengan menggunakan dokumen arkib daripada British dan Australia bagi memperlihatkan hubungan antara Malaysia dengan British berkaitan Brunei. Pada akhir 1960-an merupakan era penting dalam penglibatan Britain di Asia Tenggara apabila pentadbiran Kerajaan Konservatif Britain telah memutuskan untuk menjalankan proses dekolonisasi terhadap tanah jajahan mereka di Asia dan Afrika. Proses ini memberikan kesan kepada tanah jajahannya di Asia Tenggara, terutamanya Brunei sehingga menyebabkan kuasa tersebut menyokong gagasan Malaysia yang disertai Brunei. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa pandangan Tun Abdul Rahman dan British tentang Brunei selari, iaitu Brunei sangat penting dalam menjayakan rancangan Malaysia. Walau bagaimanapun, pelbagai isu yang timbul melibatkan hubungan Malaysia dengan Brunei menyebabkan Brunei enggan menyertai Persekutuan Malaysia. Ini menyebabkan hubungan Malaysia dengan Brunei yang masih dikuasai Britain turut memberi kesan kepada hubungannya dengan Britain. Kesimpulan daripada kajian ini ialah Tunku Abdul Rahman dan British mempunyai pandangan yang tersendiri berkenaan dengan proses dekolonisasi Brunei berdasarkan kepentingan masing-masing. British masih lagi melihat akan kepentingan Brunei untuk menyertai Persekutuan Malaysia manakala Tun Abdul Rahman berfikiran sebaliknya. Implikasi kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa corak hubungan luar setiap negara mestilah mengambil kira kepentingan nasional terutama melibatkan unsur keselamatan dan diplomasi.
