Malawi: about the flag

Malawi's flag has a rising sun on it, but for two years it had a full white sun instead. In 2010, the government changed the design, moving the sun to the center and making it white. Public opinion turned against the change, and in 2012 the old flag with the red rising sun was restored.

The black stripe stands for the people of Africa, red for the blood shed in the struggle for freedom, and green for the country's nature. The sun represents the hope of freedom for the whole continent. The design comes from the flag of the Malawi Congress Party, which led the country to independence.

The original flag was adopted on 6 July 1964, the day Malawi became independent. It was restored on 28 May 2012.
