About the flag

This makes Malaysia's flag distinctive and emblematic of its diverse culture and history. Malaysia, located in Southeast Asia, is known for its rich blend of cultures, including Malay, Chinese, and Indian influences. The flag, known as "Jalur Gemilang" or "Stripes of Glory," was adopted in 1950 and has become a symbol of national pride.
