SEA Heritage & History

The flag of Malaya, now known as Malaysia, has a long and complex history. Here is a summary of the history of the Malaya flag:

Early History (1400-1824)
- In the 15th century, the Kingdom of Melaka used a red and white flag.
- After the Kingdom of Melaka fell to the Portuguese, the flag of the Kingdom of Melaka was replaced with the Portuguese flag.

British Colonial Period (1824-1942)
- In 1824, the British took over Malaya from the Dutch and raised the Union Jack flag.
- In 1895, the Federated Malay States adopted a red, white, and blue flag.

Japanese Period (1942-1945)
- During World War II, Japan took over Malaya and raised the Japanese flag.

Post-Independence Period (1945-1957)
- After Japan was defeated, Malaya returned to British hands.
- In 1948, the Federated Malay States adopted a flag with the colors red, white, and blue.

Malaysian Independence (1957-Present)
- On 31 August 1957, the Malay States gained independence from Britain and became the country of Malaysia.
- The current Malaysian flag, with 14 red and white stripes and a crescent moon and star, was adopted in 1957.

Over its history, the Malay States flag has undergone several changes, but the spirit and meaning behind it remain the same: reflecting the identity and pride of the Malaysian nation.
