The city emblem and the flag were adopted on Aug 1st 2004 by Notice no 2.
The white flag has a green, a blue, a light blue and a red four color city emblem in the center.
The city emblem is a stylized G of Goto.
The wave stands for a harmony, the sun for the people’s vigor and the green oblong for an abundant nature and a concord of the people.
It represents the marine city creating richness of the islands.
The flag proportion is 2: 3.
The height of the emblem is 3/5 height of the flag.
