History[edit]
Board of Commissioners of Currency Malaya and British Borneo[edit]
The Currency Ordinance No. 44 of 1952 of the Crown Colony of Singapore, No. 33 of 1951 of the Federation of Malaya, No. 10 of 1951 of the British North Borneo and No. 1 of 1951 of the Crown Colony of Sarawak implemented an agreement between those governments and the State of Brunei for the establishment of a Board of Commissioners of Currency to be the sole issuing authority in Malaya and British Borneo.
This agreement became effective on 1 January 1952. The Board consisted of five members:
Financial Secretary of Singapore who was also the Chairman of the Board
Minister of Finance for the Federation of Malaya
Governor of Sarawak
Governor of British North Borneo
British Resident of Brunei
and two further appointed by agreement of the participating governments.
End of common currency
On 12 June 1967, the currency union came to an end and Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei each began issuing their own currencies. The currencies of the three countries were interchangeable at par value under the Interchangeability Agreement until 8 May 1973 when the Malaysian government decided to terminate it. Brunei and Singapore continue with the Agreement until the present day.
The Board of Commissioners of Currency Malaya and British Borneo was officially wound up on November 30, 1979.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 1953 the Malayan, Sarawak and North Borneo currencies were superceded by the Malaya and British Borneo currency. This summary is taken directly from Wikipedia:
The Malaya and British Borneo dollar (known as the ringgit in Malay, Jawi) was the currency of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak, British North Borneo and Brunei from 1953 to 1967. Malaya continued to use this currency after independence in 1957 and the formation of Malaysia in 1963, as did Singapore after its independence in 1965.
The Malayan and British Borneo dollar was issued by the Board of Commissioners of Currency, Malaya and British Borneo. It was subdivided into 100 cents and replaced the Sarawak dollar, British North Borneo dollar and Malayan dollar (also used in Singapore and Brunei) at par. Like its predecessor, it was pegged at one dollar to 2 shillings 4 pence sterling. In 1967, the Malaya and British Borneo dollar was replaced by three new currencies: the Malaysian ringgit, the Singapore dollar and the Brunei dollar, all at par. The Board of Commissioners of Currency, Malaya and British Borneo, was finally wound up in 1979.
