CEREMONY HONORING THE YELLOW FLAG MOVEMENT

From 1948 to 1975, the Yellow Flag represented a sovereign Vietnam committed to freedom and human rights, in stark contrast to the current communist regime.

WESTMINSTER, CA, UNITED STATES, October 2, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Religious dignitaries and political organizations of the Vietnamese diaspora will hold a solemn ceremony to launch The Movement to Honor the Yellow Flag

The Yellow Flag with Three Red Stripes was first adopted on June 2, 1948, when Former Emperor Bảo Đại, together with representatives of political and religious organizations, selected it as the national flag of the State of Vietnam. Following the Geneva Agreement of July 20, 1954, which divided the nation with the North under communist rule, the flag continued to be upheld by the Constituent Assembly of the First Republic, which in 1956 officially designated it as the national flag of the Republic of Vietnam.

From 1948 to 1975, the Yellow Flag was the recognized national flag of an independent, sovereign state with its own government, armed forces, diplomacy, and international legitimacy. It remains today the symbol of a free Vietnam in stark contrast to the communist regime that now governs the country.

This ceremony is convened to remind the international community that Vietnam once had a free, democratic, and independent country—a legacy which continues to inspire the struggle for human rights and liberty. The organizers affirm that the Yellow Flag represents not only history but also the future hope of democracy for Vietnam.

The ceremony will be led by:

Most Venerable Thích Minh Tuyên Reverend Nguyễn Hữu Lễ Most Venerable Thích Huyền Việt
