This was the fifth season of Malaya Cup (later known as Malaysia Cup). It was contested by states in Malaya. The final was contested by the southern and northern champions in their respective conference rounds. Six states sent their teams.

Conference Round

Six teams participated in the second edition of the Malaya Cup: Malacca, Negeri Sembilan, Singapore, Penang, Selangor and Perak. The teams were divided into two conferences, the Northern Section and Southern Section. The Northern Section comprised Penang, Selangor and Perak while the Southern Section was represented by Johor, Negeri Sembilan, Malacca and Singapore. Each team would play against each other twice and the winners of each conference would play in the final. Each win gave a team 2 points, a draw meant one point for each team, and a loss was worth 0 points.
