The Malaysian Basketball Association (Maba) has apologised for displaying a wrong Malaysian flag during the opening ceremony of a basketball match last night.
The flag, with a five-pointed star and 11 red and white stripes, was shown on the stadium TV screen as the national anthem was played together with the Westport Malaysia logo.
The Jalur Gemilang has a 14-pointed star and 14 red and white stripes that represent the nation's 13 states and the Federal Territories.
In a Facebook posting last night, Maba wrote: "To all our fellow Malaysians and basketball friends, tonight was the opening ceremony of the 28th MABA Milo Lum Mun Chak Cup (2019).
"During the ceremony, our live broadcast team accidentally displayed the wrong Malaysia flag on our stadium TV screen. We apologise for this mistake, and we take full responsibility for such actions.
"Please forgive us, as we are always striving to grow and develop the sport of basketball in Malaysia."
Meanwhile, Youth and Sports Deputy Minister Steven Sim urged for stern action to be taken.
