I understand on this page that the flag is a project from people who wish San José de las Matas could be elevated to the provincial level. I may be wrong, but I think it is only a proposal.

Are we sure that those "pretty" photoshop halo effects are part of the flag design? I'd put my money on "no," hoping I would't be throwing it away.
