PETALING JAYA: According to a statement on the Selangor Royal Facebook page, SIS stands for Sultan Idris Shah, the ninth Sultan of Selangor.
'In conjunction with the 80th birthday celebration of Sultan Sharafuddin in December 2025 and the Silver Jubilee marking the 25th year of His Majesty's reign in 2026, NPI with the index mark 'SIS' will be offered to the public.
'The Transport Ministry, through the Road Transport Department (JPJ), will offer the 'SIS' NPI via online bidding through the JPJeBid system.
'The bidding process is subject to the existing terms and conditions set through the JPJeBid system,' the statement said, adding that bidding will open today and close at 10pm on Aug 19, with results to be announced on Aug 20.
It added that the bidding price will follow the minimum price set by JPJ, which will be the sole entity managing the sale of the NPI, with no third-party involvement.
'Part of the proceeds will go to a foundation under the Sultan's patronage to fund charitable activities, scholarships and emergency relief for victims of natural disasters.
'The foundation will be chaired by Selangor Royal Council member and former Bank Negara governor Tan Sri Muhammad Ibrahim and will be managed with transparent governance procedures,' it said.
