About the Flag
"The flag of Samoa (Samoan: fuāa o SÄmoa) was first adopted from 24 February 1949, for UN Trusteeships, and continuously applied for the state's independence on 1 January 1962. It consists of a red field with a blue rectangle in the canton. The blue rectangle bears the Southern Cross: four large white stars and one smaller star.
The flag is officially defined by the Official Flag and National Anthem of Samoa Act 1994. When it is being raised or lowered in public, people and vehicles must stop and remain stationary until the performance is complete. Those who deface the flag or who willfully insult it can be imprisoned for up to six months." (source:Ā wikipedia)
