Myanmar unveils new national flag
Military-ruled Myanmar has unveiled the new national flag - with three horizontal stripes of yellow, green and red with a big white star in the middle - Thursday, just two weeks before an election that the government calls a major step in a transition to democracy but critics say is a sham.
Myanmar will hold national referendum on draft of the State Constitution in May this year and a general election in 2010, state-run Myanmar Radio reported in a night broadcast Saturday.
