The number of awards conferred is limited to 25 living recipients only at any time. The number does not include foreign citizens who receive it as an honorary award.

The fourteen-pointed star and the collar is made from silver. The badge suspends from the centre of the collar and is similar, but smaller, to the star. The riband is navy blue and has red stripes on the outer edges. The end of the riband is tied with a ribbon.

The recipient of this award receives the title Tan Sri and his wife Puan Sri.

This award was limited to 250 living recipients only at any time, excluding foreign citizens who receive it as an honorary award.
