Have a QUESTION?

There is NO yellow in the Jamaica Flag!

by Hughette GrantWatson
( Jamaica)

Can you help to spread the word that there is NO yellow in the Jamaica Flag?

There is a vast difference between yellow and gold. We cannot be the only country in the world whose people do no know the colour of its Flag and so we wave any colours.

No fake flags, we are an authentic people. Let’s get it right.

Editor's Note
Indeed Hughette! With all pleasure buddy!

I'm posting this page right now to my website, in addition to my social media accounts.

I'd also like to include the code of use for it as well, as listed on my Jamaica flag page at this link.

Code for use of the Jamaica Flag

The flag should never be smaller than any other flag flown at the same time.
The Jamaican flag should never be allowed to touch the ground or floor.

It should not be flown or used only for decorative purposes on anything that is for temporary use and is likely to be discarded, except on state occasions.
When the flag becomes worn and must be replaced, burn it.
The flag shouldn’t be draped over vehicles, except on military, police and state occasions.
Do not place any other flag above or to the right of the Jamaican flag, except at foreign embassies, consulates and missions.
Do not raise any foreign flag publicly, unless the Jamaican flag is also flown, except at foreign embassies, consulates and missions.
