The arms was amended a second time after the formation of Malaysia, with the admission of Singapore and the Borneo states of Crown Colony of North Borneo (Sabah) and the Crown Colony of Sarawak in 1963. The increase number of states later resulted in the modification of the Federation of Malaya coat of arms to support the three new member states with the widening of the shield. The tigers were redesigned to assume different positions of limbs (front limbs reaching over and behind the shield, and rear limbs reaching over the motto and the shield), and minor adjustments were also made on the appearance of the banner and the length of the crescent, while the 11-pointed federal star was updated to include 14 points. In tandem with the declaration of Malay as Malaysia's national language, the English motto was replaced with Malay language.
