In 2003, a new, more "optimistic" flag was proposed, which so far has not been formally adopted. The sun design in the middle is meant to be reminiscent of cave paintings found in Tchitundo-Hulu cave. The flag, while radically different in design and symbolism, maintains the same flag proportions of 2:3. Many Angolans dislike the flag proposal because they feel it has no real meaning, as opposed to the current flag which clearly has historical associations. Others are of the opinion that the proposed flag cannot be seen as uniquely Angolan because it resembles other national flags including the flag of Costa Rica[1]. Other Angolans hope that this new flag is one that can join Angolan people under one flag, a flag that can truly represent Angolans aspirations and tradition. The new flag will start to be used after the next elections, 2008.
