Malawi gets a new flag thing

Various vexillological societies and The Wikipedias are reporting that Malawi has changed its flag to restore the previous Pan-African colour layout, a change the opposition party is none too pleased with. I don’t pretend to know or understand the political motivation behind the change, but I like it. It looks brighter, more cheerful :).

When I was growing up I was intensely interested in flags and logos because so many designs could be visually expressed with so few colours and geometric shapes. People used to call me a loser, can you believe it? Don’t answer that.

Redesigned New Zealand flag…

I’m an Aussie by birth and given both of our countries were once British we still have those Union Jack thingys on our flags.

Apparently the redesigned New Zealand flag though still retains the Union Jack, but includes something 100% Pure New Zealand!:

Okay okay, I’m an Aussie and I couldn’t help myself :D.
