The village emblem was adopted on Apr 1st 1978 but there is no flag law. The blue flag has a yellow village emblem in the center. The village emblem is a combination of a stylized kanji 東 Higashi and the sun. The ray symbolizes the rising sun from eastern horizon and the folding-fan does the village’s unlimited development. The blue color stands for the villagers wisdom and the yellow color for the sun and the village’s rich crop.
