Emblem history

[edit]

The original emblem of Muar Municipal Council adopted since its establishment on 1 January 2001, consisted of various polygons of different colours including intertwined arrows, a hexagon and a crescent and star.[5] The emblem was slightly modified on 1 January 2018 by replacing the intertwined arrows and the municipal council's motto – Cekap Amanah Dinamik Makmur (Efficient Trustworthy Dynamic Prosperous) in Romanised Malay and its name in Jawi Malay with the flag of Muar District. The Municipal Council's name in Romanised Malay was moved into the blue scroll below the shield from the green arc of the shield, with the Johor State motto in Jawi Kepada Allah Berserah (کفد الله برسراه, To Allah we Surrender) taking its original place. The shield is additionally topped by the Johor Royal Crown and supported on both sides by two Johor State arms tigers.[6]
