Japanese forces had captured Johor Bahru. The British forces retreated from Malaya to Singapore. They then blew up the Johor-Singapore Causeway, which linked Malaya and Singapore. They wanted to delay the Japanese forces from entering Singapore. The British plan for the defense of Singapore was to guard against attacks from the sea so they put up coastal defenses guarding the southern coastline of Singapore. However, the Japanese forces entered Singapore via the northwestern coastline. On 7 February 1942, the Japanese forces attacked Pulau Ubin to mislead the British forces into thinking that they would attack Singapore from the northeast, and the British concentrated their forces on the north-eastern side of Singapore, and distributed the rest of their troops across the island. The very next day, The Japanese forces made use of boats to cross the Straits of Johor. On 9 February 1942, The Japanese forces repaired the Causeway, which had been blown up by the British forces and crossed into Singapore. 2 days later, the Japanese forces reached a reservoir in Bukit Timah. This was also where the British kept their food and weapons. Fierce fighting took place, with Chinese volunteers and British forces fighting against the Japanese forces. In the end, the British forces lost the battle. Many soldiers were killed on both sides. On 12 February, the Japanese forces attacked Fort Siloso at Sentosa. The British forces sank one of the Japanese ships. The next day, a fierce battle took place between the British forces and the Japanese forces at Pasir Panjang, where the British forces kept their military stores. Fighting alongside the British were soldiers from the Malay Regiment. They were led by Lieutenant Adnan bin Saidi who died in the battle. The next day, Japanese soldiers charged into the Alexandra Military Hospital (present-day Alexandra Hospital), where they killed more than 200 hospital staff and patients. The British decided to surrender. The supplies of water, food and ammunition were running out, and the soldiers were tired. The British wanted to prevent more deaths. On the evening of 15 February 1942, Lieutenant-General Arthur Ernest Percival, the leader of the British forces in Singapore, met Lieutenant-General Tomoyuki Yamashita, the leader of the Japanese forces tasked to capture Malaya and Singapore. At the meeting, the British forces surrendered Singapore to the Japanese forces.

As the Japanese empire grew the affirmation of a divine mission for the Japanese race was emphasized more strongly. Shinto was imposed on colonial lands in Taiwan and Korea, and public funds were utilized to build and maintain new shrines there. Shinto priests were attached to army units as chaplains, and the cult of war dead, enshrined at the Yasukuni Jinja in Tokyo, took on ever greater proportions as their number grew."(
