Description

Honiara is the capital of the Solomon Islands and of Guadalcanal Province, although it is a separately administered town. The administrator is the Honiara City Council.

The name "Honiara" is actually a misnomer: the English colonialists found it hard to pronounce the original name of the area in the northern Guadalcanal languages: Nagoniara. Nagoniara means "in front of the wind."

The flag is a "seal on a bedsheet", completely white with the seal of the Honiara City Council in the center.

The City:
"Honiara, population 49,107 (1999 census), 78,190 (2009 estimate), is the capital of the Solomon Islands and of Guadalcanal Province, although it is a separately administered town. - from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honiara.

The flag of the Honiara City Council, Solomon Islands, consists of city council logo on a white background. The seal-like logo shows three horizontal stripes of green-yellow-green and white five-pointed star in the center, around the inscription "HONIARA CITY COUNCIL".

The flag of the city of Honiara is equivalent to the flag of the Honiara City Council. Instead of the inscription "Honiara City Council" are the descriptions " CITY OF HONIARA" and "NATIONAL CAPITAL".
