According to http://pacificdigitallibrary.org, blue stands for love of mankind, peace and prosperity. White stands for trust in peace. Red stands for perseverance without limitation. The seven stripes symbolize the original seven municipalities forming Ngarchelong. The eight shining stars represent the today's eight municipalities, now unified under a wise and enlightened government, as symbolized by the circular pattern of the stars.
