The Flag Consideration Panel is inviting people to upload designs for a new flag.
There are more than 4000 in the gallery already.
The three most preferred when I checked Rate the Flag yesterday were:
Panekiretanga (#10279)
By Martyn Bennett
the blue represents the sky,
the white is the cloud and reflects the Maori name Aotearoa
green is for the land.
Manawa (The Peoples Choice) Blue Sky Version (#681)
By OtisFrizzell
This is another version of my design. The Southern Cross on the blue background pays homage to the current flag, but the maori design element replaces the Union Jack.
Coru And Southern Cross (#2473)
By Otis Frizzell
simple. the southern cross is ” part of NZ” the coru is “part of NZ”
I’ve looked at the second and third several times and can’t spot any difference – what am I missing?
