Unicode sequence for 🇲🇾
The Malaysia flag is not one code point. It is a valid emoji flag sequence made from two Regional Indicator Symbols associated with the region code MY. Unicode defines the sequence; each platform chooses how to draw the resulting flag.
- Regional Indicator Symbol Letter M
- 🇲 · U+1F1F2
- Regional Indicator Symbol Letter Y
- 🇾 · U+1F1FE
Full sequence: U+1F1F2 U+1F1FE. Copy the rendered flag above instead of copying one indicator by itself.
