The Malawi Congress Party was the first ruling party in Malawi after independence, presided by Ngwazi Dr.H. Kamuzu Banda (founding president of Malawi). Now it's the second party in Malawi with about 1/3 of the representatives in the National Assembly of Malawi. M.C.P. is presided now by Jhon Z.U. Thembo.
The flag is three striped in black, red and green as national flag,
but without sun; In the centre there's a white circle with a kind of black
rooster in the middle.
According to the comment in FOTW Malawi page,
MCP changed this flag to an all green one (with the white circle and the
rooster). I don't know, if this change was make it, but then this flag
would be the previous MCP flag. But, if you mix the black rooster with
the red rising sun in the same flag the result would be very close to Angolan
UNITA flag.
