Keep flying the flag ... the right way, please

PLEASE, could someone inform the public how our national flag is supposed to be hung?

Some people have been hanging our flag upside down .

People who don't know how to hang our national colours must remember that red is always at the top and not the bottom. Motorists, please note that on your side-mirror, the colour red must be on top.

I think the government should educate South Africans about the national flag and what it represents.

These colours mean a lot to citizens who know what it is about and we have to teach our young lost generation how to respect it because they haven't a clue what the colours mean.

Thanks to those who fly the flag but let's not fly it only because of the World Cup.

Keep flying it afterwards too.

MK Marumo, GaRankuwa
