Translated from municipal
web site:
"The flag is made of three horizontal stripes. The upper,
orange stripes represetns the strength of our people and our
natural resources; the central, white stripe
represents prosperity and harmony of our people; the lower, green
stripe represents our resources in marshes, flora and
fauna."
