Pingat Jasa Malaysia
(Malaysian Service Medal)
Bars: none
Period: 31 Aug. 1957-12 Aug. 1966.
Issued in 2004 by the King and Government of Malaysia for Commonwealth
personnel who served in Malaya (including Singapore through 9 Aug.
1965) and Malaysia during the Malayan Emergency and Indonesian Confrontation.
The start date is that of Malayan independence.
The medal was accepted for wear in 2005 by Australia, New Zealand
and Fiji. As of January 2006, the British

|
| government permits acceptance of the medal
but not its wear since it violates the ban against commemorative medals
for the distant past and events for which a British medal has already
been issued. |
