The primary source of this flag is a personal, local observation by Michel Lupant, reported, with due credit, in Francia Vexilla (27/73, September 2002; 28/74, December 2002). The original artwork in Francia Vexilla is by Hervé Calvarin. The image above as published in Wikipedia was made by Jaume Ollé.

With the adoption of a new national flag for Burma-Myanmar in 2010, I guess the Kayah state flag has had to change, at least to remove the former Burmese national flag (1973-2010) of the canton, as show on Mello Luchtenberg website http://www.vexilla-mundi.com/myanmar_divisions.html .
