What is singapore flag?

The flag of Singapore consists of two equal horizontal bands of red (top) and white. In the canton, there is a white crescent moon and five white stars arranged in a circle. The red color represents universal brotherhood and equality of man, while the white stands for purity and virtue. The crescent moon represents a young nation on the rise, and the five stars symbolize the ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice, and equality. The design of the flag was adopted in 1959, when Singapore gained self-governance from British colonial rule.
