The Flag of Bukidnon is a horizontal triband of white, red and black, charged in the center with a yellow emblem[1] consisting of a spear pointing downward toward the fly, and a shield which itself is charged with the stylized profile of the Kitanglad mountain range. The size of the flag is declared to be 34 inches by 64 inches,[2] giving the flag a width-to-length proportion of 17:32. Bukidnon is one of the few Philippine provinces to have a flag whose design deviates from the standard provincial seal on a colored field.

Symbolism

The Provincial Government of Bukidnon provides the symbolism of the flag's various elements as follows:[2]

Main flag field:

  • The three equal horizontal stripes represent the hospitability, heroism and nobility of Bukidnons, and expressing Bukidnon sentiments for quality, freedom, justice and peace.
  • White color — represents honesty and purity
  • Red color — represents commerce, courage, bravery and heroism
  • Black color — represents authority

Central emblem:

  • Spear and shield — represent the traditional weapon of the natives for self-defense
  • Yellow color — represents nobility
  • Pointed shape of the upper portion of the shield — represents the mountain ranges which harbor natural resources (e.g. wildlife, flora, fauna, mineral deposits, etc.) and serve as natural defenses of the province
  • Pointed shape of the lower portion of the shield — represents the scenic canyons (e.g. Mangima, Atugan and Kulaman Canyons) which also serve as natural defenses of the province
  • Parallel lines forming the border of the shield — represent the river banks from which native Bukidnon ethnic groups derive their respective names (e.g. Pulangions, Tigwahonons, etc.)
  • Circular charge with stylized mountain profile — represents the Mount Kitanglad mountain range, the province's most distinctive landmark.
