Headline: HOW TO SUBMIT DESIGNS FOR FIJI’S NATIONAL FLAG COMPETITION

3/5/2015

Fijians can submit their designs for Fiji’s new national flag by e-mail, by post and by hand delivery.

The competition is open to everyone. If you have an idea, do not be afraid to share it. Young people and schools are especially encouraged to take part.

You do not need a computer design program and you do not need to be a professional designer to make a submission. Sketches and drawings will be considered the same as electronic designs. All you need is pen, pencil and paper to participate.

However, whatever format you choose, you are encouraged to submit your design in colour.

If you do not have the Internet at home, you can use any one of the 25 Government Telecentres located around the country to submit your idea. Each Telecentre has a scanner that you can use to scan your design and send in by email. If you have never used a scanner before, there will be someone who can help you.

The deadline for submission is 4:30pm on Friday, 1 May 2015.

Be sure to include your full name, address and contact details with your design. A written description that explains the different elements of your design and your reason for choosing them is also encouraged.

How to submit your designs:

By Mail: Send your design to the Department of Information PO Box 2225, Government Buildings, Suva
