Nibor1945 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Further to my original post in Dec 2006. Just received an email from the Embassy of Malaysia, Bangkok. They are expecting to receive a consignment of the medals at the end of this month (April 2011), they also intend to hold an official presentation in Bangkok after the new Ambassador arrives in Mid May. The ceremony will probably take place in June or July after all recipients have been contacted. There were approximately 19 applicants for the medal in Thailand originally, over the course of the years I suspect some of those will have moved or received the medal elsewhere. For any still waiting who have moved from the original address given, please contact Mr Nazarudin Jaafar (Head of Chancery) email [email protected] For those who served in Malaysia during the emergency Pre 1966 and have not applied for the medal, the application form can be downloaded from the Borneo and Malaysia veterans association website.
