Yesterday evening (Melbourne, Aust. time) S.B.S. TV's "World News Australia"
reported the raising of the new P.N.G. Provincial Flag for Hela (formerly part
of Southern Highlands Province), as part of its coverage of the current national
elections. Video of this report can be viewed at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_qKBfRpLOg. Also, an online "PNG Courier
Post" newspaper photograph of the other new P.N.G. Provincial Flag for Jiwaka
(formerly part of Western Highlands Province) can be viewed at
http://www.postcourier.com.pg/20120518/frhome.htm.
An article about
these two new Papua New Guinea Provincial Flags, and background information,
will be appearing in the near future in Flags Australia's journal "Crux
Australis" later this year.

I have selected the frames from the movie
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_qKBfRpLOg and reconstructed from this
source the new flag of Hela Province.

A variant of the flag was received as a gift from a local office in Boroko /Port
Moresby (probably with the help of the Belgian Honorary Consul) sent in November
2014 and manufactured in China.
