Do the colours reflect the party’s political alignment towards
the West (US/UK/France,
etc)?
James Dignan, 26 Mar 2010
And North Korea…? Seriously, it is hard to
discern the party’s political alignment towards the west when its
leader recently recycled himself from fervent Christian to devout Muslim.
That said, this choice of colors might serve that purpose, or might
have served in the past when it was chosen.

Two flag variants are known,
both based on non-textile depictions, however authoritative. A news photo
(chosen to illustrate a
Feb.
2016 news report, but might have been
taken
much earlier) showing an actual example of the flag on the cloth: Its
design doesn’t differ significantly from the previously reported
variants, sharing white lettering with the party website
graphic and the colorful emblem with the depiction in
the ballot papers. The central emblem is shown in three colors: Yellow
for the maize cob leaves and for the stems of the rice stalk, golden
yellow for the rice panicle and for the maize grains, and light green for
the tuft at the top of the maize cob. The lettering is white, set in
sans serif bold italics of a face akin to
Futura,
smaller than as shown in the party website. Note that
this specific design may not be the official one (as illustrated in the
party statues), and/or may not be the only one in use — it is
however the only design we’ve seen in textile use.

A clearer image, complete with the motto on the lower stripe
(Liberdade - Transparência - Justiça) can be seen at the
official
website
James Dignan, 25 Mar 2010
It is a horizontal tricolor of red, white and blue with the party
emblem centered on the white stripe, and the party name and sigla centered
on the red stripe.
Another page of
the party’s official website, shows a larger image of the flag
— and the emblem in the middle shows an ear of maize and another of
rice, with their stems crossed, in golden yellow monochrome. This flag
image is also at the main
«About us» page), and indeed ubiquitous in the official
website. The motto on the blue stripe means «Freedom - Transparency -
Justice»; here "transparency" is a buzzword meaning honesty or
accountability, the opposite of corruption.
This flat flag image shows white letters, while the one on
the ballot papers has them in black (and the emblem in full color).
Ratio is fairly long in both images, around 3:5. The red stripe of the
flat flag image on line is slightly wider, but I believe that is not
intentional.

The flag of P.R.S. is shown in one of the two
ballot papers reported (#5 in Bissau-29). This flat flag image shows
black letters, while the one on the official website
has them in white (and the emblem in golden yellow monochrome). Ratio is
fairly oblong in both images, around 3:5.
