This flag is definitely not the "real flag" of Myanmar. General Aung San would rolled from his grave if he ever sees this flag, because the colors of the new flag represents Burma under the former Japanese military occupation during World War II. The real, true flag of Myanmar is the red-blue with 5 white stars/1 big white star flag----the one used before dictator Ne Win took power. All the rest were drawn up the military dictatorship.
I do not feel like this flag belong to Myanmar.....
One thing for sure, they are just doing whatever they want so they might as well change the flag or the name of the country as they wish. The public doesn't get to vote on anything anyway so go head, the country is all yours.
In 1917 after we claimed our independence.Than Russians occupied our country in 1940 our flag was changed to comunistic red flag with hammer and sickle, than we regained our independence we regained our national flag colors.Yellow means - sun, green- color of our fields and valleys and red is blood of many Lithuanians who died for independence

How pathetic. Dumb regime was not able to create their own flag, so they just copied Lithuanian tricolor, and added an American white star on it.

Well, at least the flag now resembles what this government really is: a repressive regime.
