The Singapore waving flag is the national flag of the Republic of Singapore. It features two equal horizontal halves, the top half being red and the bottom half being white. In the upper left corner of the flag, there is a white crescent moon with five stars arranged in a circle.
The red color represents universal brotherhood and equality of man, while the white color symbolizes pervading and everlasting purity and virtue. The crescent moon represents a young nation on the ascendant, and the five stars stand for the nation’s ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice, and equality.
When the Singapore waving flag is hoisted, it should be flown from sunrise to sunset, and never flown or displayed in a position inferior to any other flag or ensign. It should also be treated with respect and dignity, and not be defaced or used for any commercial or advertising purposes.
The waving of the Singapore flag is an important symbol of national identity and pride, and is commonly seen at major national events such as National Day parades, sporting events, and government buildings.
