Decoding The Straits Settlements’ Coat Of Arms

This week on Made In Malaysia, we’ll be looking at the coat of arms of the Straits Settlements, a territory directly ruled by the British colonial government. Sunda Shelves co-founder Surin Suksuwan joins us to share what he’s learned about the rich  history of the Straits Settlements, and how it is reflected in the design of its coat of arms.
