[edit] Status of Brunei

I was looking at the image of the reverse of Malayan Dollar note and noticed there were 3 sets of coat of arms. The one on the left represents the Federated Malay States, the Straits Settlements in the middle, and what I presume are the Unfederated Malay States on the right. Curiously, the coat of arms of Brunei is grouped on the right. Would it then be safe to presume that Brunei was considered administratively as part of the Unfederated Malay States; considering the fact that Brunei was also a Malay state that was a British protectorate during that period of time. Or could it be possible that this was just a usage exclusive to the Board of Commissioners of Currency, Malaya? - Bob K 14:26, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
