Issued to mark the centenary of Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia's oldest teacher-training institution, founded in 1922 under British colonial administration as the Sultan Idris Training College. The college was deliberately established in Tanjong Malim rather than a major urban center — a political choice to keep Malay teachers rooted in rural communities and away from nationalist currents gathering in the cities. That calculus ultimately failed; SITC became one of the principal incubators of Malay political consciousness and left-leaning Malay-language literature in the 1930s and 1940s.
