Governor of Suriname, 1959

Governor of Suriname, 1959

In 1959 a flag for the Governor of Suriname was adopted. Between two red-white-blue bands, representing the flag of the Netherlands, the flag of Suriname was featured, five coloured stars representing Suriname's major ethnic groups: the original Amerindians, the colonising Europeans, the Africans brought in as slaves to work in plantations and the East Indians, Javanese and Chinese who came as indentured workers after the abolition of slavery. The ellipse represents the harmonious relationship amongst the groups.
