Fourteen red-and-white stripes run across this one, thirteen for Malaysia's states plus one for the federal government, with a crescent for Islam and a fourteen-point star for unity tucked into the blue canton. Officially it's the Jalur Gemilang, "stripes of glory," and yellow is reserved as the color of Malay royalty.
What 🇲🇾 means
A rectangular flag designed in red and white horizontal stripes and a square navy blue patch on the top-left corner, detailed with a right-facing yellow crescent moon and a sun to its right.
The 🇲🇾 Flag: Malaysia emoji represents the southeast Asian country of Malaysia. Flag emojis are not supported on all platforms and in such cases, these emojis are replaced with the country's code, which in this scenario would be 'MY'.
