The National Flag of Belize receives a face lift

For the latest news across Belize, visit: http://edition.channel5belize.com/ The National Celebrations Commission today announced that the Belize flag is being standardized. For years, Belizeans have complained that the national is not uniform. Relying on historical information and after consultations with experts, the Commission will standardize the design and colour schemes of the national flag. The work begun a few years ago, but it has intensified in recent months with the Commission seeking approval through a Statutory Instrument from Cabinet. It has been a challenge, says Director of the Institute for Social and Cultural Research Nigel Encalada, since there is no document that indicates what the flag should look like but after long and hard research, the team made progress to bring the flag to as close as it was originally conceived at the time of Independence.
