Translated from Municipal
website:
"The flag was designed by the teachers of the "Pedagogy
and Practice" micro-center. The flag is made of three equal
horizontal stripes. Blue represents the hydric resources of our
municiapality; yellow represents flora and fauna; green
represents the natural and agriculturalresources. A white circle
overlapping the blue and green stripes represents peace and
harmony; inside the circle are represented the two cultural
ethnies, Nasa and small farmers on the fertile soils of the
municipality."
From this description, it seems that the image of the flag is
inaccurate. There should be something depicted inside it.
The Nasa are an indigenous people living in the north of Cauca.
