Flag of Malaysia

Made in the USA, these Malaysia Flags use DuPont’s heavy weight 200 denier nylon. This material represents the highest standard for lustrous beauty and flag life. It offers the best resistance to sun and chemical deterioration, and is fast drying as well.

Precisely dyed, all seal and designs are in correct proportion to flag sizes. Even complex emblems exhibit with fine detail in brilliant colorfast colors..

They feature double stitched sewn edges and 4 rows (2 rows on the 12” x 18” flags) of lock stitching on the fly end. Lock stitching increases the durability of the flag and provides a nicer feel to the flag. In addition the flag heading uses a durable canvas heading reinforced with precision stitching and spurred brass grommets.

Lightweight and strong, these Malaysia Flags will fly in the slightest breeze, but still have superb wearing strength due to the material's superior strength-to-weight ratio.

Choose the plain flag for outdoor use or hanging on a wall.

Flags with pole sleeve and fringe should be used on our indoor mounting sets, or carried on our parade poles. These flags are not designed for hanging on wall or outdoor flagpoles. Any flag with pole sleeve & fringe is finished with lined pole sleeves, leather tabs, and a beautiful golden yellow fringe on 3 sides.Malaysia Flags

The flag of Malaysia, also known as the Jalur Gemilang ("Stripes of Glory"), comprises a field of 14 alternating red and white stripes along the fly and a blue canton bearing a crescent and a 14-point star known as the Bintang Persekutuan or Federal Star. The 14 stripes, of equal width, represent the equal status in the federation of the 13 member states and the federal government, while the 14 points of the star represent the unity between these entities. The crescent represents Islam, the country's official religion; the blue canton symbolizes the unity of the Malaysian people; the yellow of the star and crescent is the royal colour of the Malay rulers.[1] In blazon, the Malaysian flag is described as: "A banner Gules, seven bars Argent; the canton Azure charged with decrescent and mullet of fourteen points Or." This means "a red flag with seven horizontal white stripes; the upper-left (hoist) quarter is blue with a yellow waning crescent (i.e. horns pointing to sinister) and a yellow 14-pointed star.

How Many Countries In The World?

Now that is a question that's somewhat difficult to answer, as there is no one right answer. Many sources offer different answers, and depending on the source, there are 189, 191, 192, 193, 194 or 195 independent countries in the world today.
dot
As of May 1, 2008, the United Nations has 192 members (including Montenegro and Serbia - the two newest nations). That number does not include the Vatican, and it doesn't (yet) include Kosovo (disclaimer).
dot
Regarding England, Scotland and Wales, though all are widely considered individual countries, they are all still a part of the United Kingdom (UK), a European country, and therefore included within the United Kingdom on our country list below.
dot
The US State Department recognizes 194 independent countries around the world, but that list of countries reflects the political agenda of the United States of America. As an example, it includes Kosovo, but does not include Taiwan, as China claims that Taiwan (the ROC) is simply a province of China.
dot
Most of the current World Almanacs use 193 countries, which is probably the best answer, but what about Kosovo? (disclaimer) Palestine? Greenland? Western Sahara?
dot
A note regarding Greenland: It voted in favor of increased self-rule in November 2008 and acquired complete responsibility for internal affairs in June 2009. Denmark, however, continues to exercise control of Greenland's foreign affairs, security, and financial policy in consultation with Greenland's Home Rule Government. In that regard, Greenland is still a part of Denmark, and not recognized as an official independent country. In fact, it's a constituent country; a country that is part of another entity, such as a sovereign state. In this case, the country of Denmark.

The political world is constantly changing and our list of independent nations is shown below. Note that we don't say that our list is the ONLY answer, just that it's our answer.
