Pacific International Lines (Pte) Ltd. as it was renamed 3.6.1971 having been
formed in 1967, has used the same flag format for some of its subsidiaries/joint
ventures by changing the lettering. Thus MSC is for the Malaysia Shipping
Corporation Sendirian Berhad of Kuala Lampur.

bands of blue-red-white-red-blue with the golden star of 14 points overall. In 1995 the name was changed to Malaysia International
Shipping Corporation Berhad.

The link provided by Jarig no longer works but the descendent company of
Sarawak Steamship Co. Berhad located on
http://www.sarawaksteamship.com/
shows a flag logo reversing the direction of the bands. That the version shown
here as a house flag is correct is confirmed albeit by a B&W photo of the vessel
"Auby" appearing on
www.merchantnavyofficers.com/straits4.html (30/1/2005) giving a history of
the Straits Steamship Co. Ltd. which apparently became their owners by the end
of the 1930s. It appears that their ship-owning came to end following the
takeover of Straits Steamship by the Keppel Group in 1983 and the current
company is involved in travel and tours, creative advertising, gallery and air
cargo services.
