Explanation:
Nombor Fihrasat (or Firasat) is an old Malay term for what is now Nombor Indeks. Being of that age, I recall seeing it in the 60's/early 70's before the switch to Indeks.
NB: Allow me to correct the source term. It must be "nombor" if you found it in a Universiti Malaya document. I'd be surprised if it's "nomor" as I didn't know Firasat is used in Indonesian.
