At Album 2000 [pay00] -
Minister of Defence (2:3) - National flag with black anchor
topped with stylized "bird badge" centered on the flag.
Željko Heimer, 20 May 2001
The stylization of the black emblems are a bit different from
previously reporeted flags, but I am inclined to give right to
the Album 2000 versions (this, first of all, goes for the shape
of the "bird badge", as I called it). However, one
should not rule out the possibility that in last 150 years or so
how long these flags are used (if I understood rightly, they are
quite as old as the national flag) the stylization might have
changed a bit.

At [pay00], fig. 11 Captions
says "... elected President". Are there non-elected
presidents? Possibly there is someting behind this wording that I
don't understand right.
Željko Heimer, 9 January 2001
I would suggest that "pre'sident elu" [presumably
"presidente eligido" in Spanish] is probably better
translated as "president- elect," meaning a president
who has been elected but has not yet taken office.

At Album 2000 [pay00] - State
Minister or elected President (2:3) - National flag with a black
"bird badge" in canton.
The flag was previously reported as "Ministers and
Ambassadors Flag", but I guess that Armand's interpretation
is more correct (or is it?). Also, am I right that "state
ministers" are not all the members of the government, but
only few ministers holding the most important positions, maybe
with specially authorities/responsibilities?
Željko Heimer, 22 May 2001
I've never seen it but of course that doesn't mean it doesn't
exist. Elected President refers to a president who has been
elected but has not taken office (President-Elect). Presidential
elections take place in May but the president does not take
office until August 7, leaving a three months interval. State
Minister refers to "Ministro de Estado", also known as
"Ministro Delegatrio". This is a figure by which a
minister temporarily (usually a few days) carries on the
president's functions at home while the president is travelling.

Last night in a tv interview with current Bogotá's
Mayor on NTN24 news channel, I saw the flag of the Alcaldía Mayor de Bogotá D.C.
(Bogotá DC Higher Mayor), the highest city post. In the interview, one can see
the Mayorship flag, which is the Colombian tricolor
plus the CoA plus the inscription on top in capital
golden letters which read REPÚBLICA DE COLOMBIA, and then below, in capital
golden letters it reads ALCALDÍA MAYOR DE BTA. D.C.

from tv interview, located
here. One can see the flag the video, elapsed time 00:34 until 00:39 Bogotá
is officially designated Bogotá D.C. (Distrito Capital, Capital District) since
2000. Between 1991 and 2000 it was called Santa Fé de Bogotá. It is the capital
city of Colombia. It is also designated by the national constitution as the
capital of the Department of Cundinamarca, even though the city of Bogotá now
comprises an independent Capital district (with its 20 Localidades) and no
longer belongs administratively to that Department.
