Leaflet [t9l07] shows a tottally new flag
(replacing the previous one), divided vertically in two
equal areas: the fly side plain white and the hoist side red with black bordure
in all three flag edges; black and white round spots speckled on the red area
and centered on it a vertically divided black and white ring; on the top hoist,
partly overlapping the red area, a white disc with light purple rim and
something on it. I dont know exactly when this new flag replaced the
previous: somewhen between 2001 and 2007…

In the 2001 elections the flag of KOTA had a
multicolor background consisting of five equal horizontal stripes (black,
yellow, red, green and white) which curb to the upper fly in a perspective
effect; three more stripes (dark blue, red and green) add to this effect from
the bottom fly (being thus rather triangles, not stripes). Over all, the party
emblem: a white disc bordered in dark blue with the party name arced around the
upper outside of the disc in bold white captals. On the disc, a traditional
Timorese house, two crossed clubs, and a kaibauk (a traditional Timorese
symbol of authority); on the border 33 small yellow stars(?) — I dont
know the meaning of this number 33, it is neither the number of
districts (13) nor their subdivisions (64). On the black
stripe, at the hoist, a yellow 32-rayed sun and the lettering "KOTA" in
uppercase squeezed white sans capitals.

In the 2007.06.02 elections KOTA run in a
coalition with P.P.T., labelled Aliansa
Demokratika (Democratic Alliance), which got 13 294 votes (3,20%),
recieving 2 of 65 seats in the parliament, one for KOTA and one for
PPT.

KOTA got 7735 votes in the 2001.08.30 elections
(2,13%), recieving 2 of 88 seats in the parlament. Though is was created still
during the indonesian occupation, being thus one of the
“traditional” parties, it is one of the small parties in
parlament.
