1.Brunei

The national flag of Brunei has the crest of Brunei in the centre, on a yellow field. The field is cut by black and white diagonal stripes, although they are officially called parallelograms.
The yellow field represents the Sultan of Brunei. (In Southeast Asia, yellow is traditionally the colour of royalty, and the royal standards ofMalaysia and Thailand, along with the presidential flag of Indonesia, also use a yellow field.)
The crest consists of a crescent (symbolizing Islam) joined with a parasol (symbolizing monarchy), and two upturned hands on both sides (signifying the benevolence of the government). Below the crescent is a ribbon. On the crescent and ribbon are Arabic inscriptions translating as "State of Brunei, Abode of peace" and Brunei's motto, "Always in service with God's guidance"
The black and white parallelograms represent Brunei's chief ministers.

2.Cambodia

The national flag of Cambodia (Khmer: Tung-Cheat, "National flag") was readopted in 1993, after elections returned the monarchy to rule.
The flag used today is the same as that established in 1948, although since then 5 other designs have been used. Almost all made use of the image of the temple of Angkor Wat in one form or another. This famous temple site, which dates from the 12th century, was built by the Mahidharapura monarchs. It has 5 towers, but these were not always all depicted in the stylised version used on flags. The monarchy was restored in September 1993, the 1948 flag having been readopted in June of that year.

    The Origin and history of the Tibetan prayer flags is a long. The tradition of the flags began more than 2000 years ago. They are based off of the ruler’s banners at the time. The native people made these flags to honor their gods in their shamanistic religion. The Indian Buddhist sutras were originally written on cloth in India, where they were transmitted to other regions of the world including Tibet. These sutras on banners were the original prayer flags. The origin of the prayer flag comes from the Shakyamuni Buddha, whose prayers were written on battle flags used by devas against their enemies the asuras. Monks carried this knowledge of the prayer flags in Tibet after 640 C.E. and the actual flags were introduced no later than 1040 C.E. The Indian monk Atisha (980-1054 C.E.) introduced the Indian practice of printing on cloth prayer flags to Tibet.…

    Cambodian Genocide

    • 1177 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Cambodia, a southeastern Asian country, has endured many feats in history and has often been conquered but never has it seen such a devastation as heinous as in the year 1970. With a population of roughly 7 million people at the time, almost all Cambodians prior to genocide practiced Buddhism. The country was reigned by France for nearly 100 years and finally gained independence in 1953. Cambodia then became a constitutional monarchy when Prince Sihanouk took place as king. After much struggling to keep his land independent from other countries, Sihanouk was deposed in a military coup involving Prime Minister General Lon Nol. This caused the Vietnamese communists that lived partially in Cambodia to form a rebellious group called the Khmer Rouge. Invasions seemed never ending for the country, as Sihanouk was unable to regain his power as king. Tension between Lon Nol’s government and Khmer Rouge had risen to an all time high until Khmer Rouge gained complete power of the country in 1975 and the official name was even changed to Democratic Kampucha. What we know today as called Cambodia became a hostile and very dangerous place to live, as it was basically war grounds for the Vietnamese war.…

    When Pol Pot took over Cambodia, it was one of the most horrible genocides next to the Holocaust, in the 1970’s; this was a big part of history. In March 1970, Marshal Lon Nol, a Cambodian politician who had previously served as prime minister, and his pro-American associates staged a successful overthrow to depose Prince Sihanouk as head of state. At this time, the Khmer Rouge had gained members and was positioned to become a major player in the civil war due to its alliance with Sihanouk. The Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK), otherwise known as the Khmer Rouge, took control of Cambodia on April 17, 1975.

    Base on the information provided by the text, it seems as if Tamara will succeed as the President of the student body. First, Tamara was voted by the student body, her own peers, which indicate that Tamara was well liked and had shown great success as a leader in her previous rolls. The text states that Tamara likes her council members and they seemed to like her. According to the Least Preferred Co-worker (LPC) test that Tamara took, she is “relationship motivated,” which leads to the conclusion that she is well-liked (Northouse,2013,p.131).The most important part to her success will be that she will have learned to use situational variables in her leadership styles. If Tamara learns to use contingency theory, then she will have success in her quest to be the best student body president because it is state that “Contingency theory suggests that situations can be characterized in three factors: Leader-member relations, task structure, and position power.” (Nothouse,2013,p.131).Base on the LCP test Tamara will be met with challenge concerning the decisions she makes in the best interest of her student body, and should have success during her term as student body president.…
