Image shows purple hoist with yellow over red. Based upon
size, it appears to follow the 2:3 pattern of the Panamanian
national flag. Representation: fair.

Arnulfist Party: flag formed by a vertical band at the hoist,
in blue, and two horizontal stripes at the fly, yellow (the
upper) and red (the lower).
The Arnulfist Party takes its name from the conservative
politician Arnulfo Arias, and it is considered close to the
American positions, and to conservative politics.

Nationalist Party - Vertical red-white-blue with a white
"mirrored" 3 in red stripe, a red P in white stripe and
a white N in blue stripe. "By the coup of 11 October 1968,
colonel Omar Torrijos, head of tha national guard, overthrew the
president Arnulfo Arias, which had been elected a few days
before." [eun]
At the date of parution of Smith's book, Panama was under the
rule of a unique party, and I guess this was the Nationalist
Party.
Source is Smith (1975), pp. 340-341 ("Symbols in
politics"). Smith says that these are real flags and not
only party emblems, which may differ in colours when used as
emblem or in a flag.
Description of the party, comes from Encyclopaedia Universalis
CD-ROM (1998)
Ivan Sache, 6 August 1999
The 3PN stands for "Tercer Partido Nacionalista"
(3rd Nationalist Party) - one of the government coalition parties
that lost the 1968 elections won by the Panamenista party.
11 days after the Panamenista president was inaugurated, Torrijos
overthrew him.
At the time of Smith´s book (1975) all political parties
including the 3PN were banned by Torrijos and no unique official
party existed. Torrijos formed the PRD party in 1979 also
allowing all other parties.
The 3PN joined the Republican and one of the Liberal parties to
form the opposition MOLIRENA.

Party of the Democratic Revolution (of Ernesto Perez
Balladares): flag of three horizontal stripes, the upper red, the
central white, and the lower dark blue. In the center a
two-colored disk, red over dark blue, with a white border al
around the disk. Within the red-blue colors is the number 11 in
white. In the red upper band is written in white the word
REVOLUCIÓN. In the lower blue band the word DEMOCRATICA.
The Party of the Democratic Revolution stemmed from the
nationalist and progressive options adopted by General Torrijos,
who obtained the retrocession of the Channel Zone, administered
by the United States, to Panama. It has directed the political
life in the last years, with exception of the lapse of the
American invasion and the establishment of a government favorable
to the interests of the United States Supposed variant of
the same Party flag observed in television images: Flag of four
horizontal stripes, the upper red, the following dark blue, the
third white and the lower dark blue. It also contains the words
REVOLUCIÓN (written in white in the upper band) and DEMOCRATICA
(written in white in the lower band).

1:2 version by Ivan Sache, 26 December
1999
These four hands supposedly stand for inter-racial solidarity
and fellowship, OK. But who's who? Brown should be for anfrican
panamians, thats clear. But what about the others?
António Martins, 23 March 2000
I suspect that the hands stand for (by generally accepted
continent of origin)
White - Europeans
Red - Americans
Yellow - Asians
Black - Africans
It is reminiscent of lyrics from the children's song:
"Red and Yellow Black and White,
They are precious in His site,
Jesus loves the little children
of the world"
Nathan Bliss, 24 March 2000
Just a guess, but may I suggest brown for African, yellow for
Asian (Chinese), rose (red) for Native Indian, and white for
European?

According to a morning's newspaper in Panama, one of their
Political Parties has a new flag. The flag is Yellow, White and
Blue, in horizontal form, and the name of the party is Vanguardia
Moral de la Patria (meaning: at the Front of the Fatherland's
Moral Values).
