Partido Liberal Democrático (PLD)
In fifth place in the present Angolan Parliament is the PLD, that is, the
Partido Liberal Democrático (Liberal Democratic Party). This party
has 3 MPs and a website. It also
has a flag that is a OB++ diagonal with a thin W stripe running from upper
hoist to lower fly. The blue area is charged with 18 white stars disposed
in somewhat ragged rows of (from top to bottom) 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1 stars
(curiously these are all prime numbers - I wander if this is on purpose).
The orange area is charged with ther party symbol. Despite the existence
of a relatively good image of this symbol in the party website, it is so
complex that not all details are clearly identifiable and/or accurately
drawable. In any case, it contains a white disc, two branches, probably
laurel, a bird, eventually an eagle, with open wings ans holding a 5-pointed
star that rests over a complex scroll that has something written, eventually
the party initials (PLD). All this lies over the sillouettes of a man,
a boy, a girl and a woman, which in turn stand over something black I assumed
that was possibly the full name of the party. Everything is yellow outlined
black, except the disc and the wording.
