South african flag

The meaning of the flag For example, in 2008 the KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sibusiso Ndebele attributed the following meanings in an official speech: black = black, Indian and coloured people red = the violence that lead to freedom white = the colonial and apartheid past green and blue = the beauty of our land and ocean yellow = no meaning attributed - the Sun – ambiguous

The only symbolism in the flag is the Y shape , “The convergence of diverse elements within South African society, taking the road ahead in unity”. *convergence: sammanstrålning
