Sultan Ismail.
Do you have more details on the back of that photograph such as date and place? I am intrigued by the single name Malaysian which is post Malayan-Singapore Airlines, yet it appears to sport the logo of the Federated States, the crossed flags.
Seems that Malaysian was pre MSA.

Name Changes. The airline saw its name changed twice due to political shifts. In 1963, the creation of the Federation of Malaysia prompted a change of name to "Malaysian Airways". Singapore's expulsion from the federation in 1965 led to another name change in 1966 to Malaysia-Singapore Airlines (MSA) when the two separate governments took joint ownership of the airline.
