A white stripe (for peace) separates triangles of green (for vegetation) and black (from the national flag). Stars represent the 3 geographic regions. The provincial emblem is set over the green.

My source gives another (older?) version for Western Highlands: a vertical tricolour black-green-white, with on the greem stripe a large white six-pointed star surrounded by a circle of twelve smaller white six-pointed stars.
