Bernard Nomak Jnr. Torres Strait Flag

Mark Hogan had the opportunity to chat to Bernard Namok (Jnr) about the Torres Strait Island 30th year Flag Anniversary.

The Torres Strait Islander Flag is an official flag of Australia, and is the flag that represents Torres Strait Islander people. It was designed in 1992 by Bernard Namok. It won a local competition held by the Islands Coordinating Council, and was recognised by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission in June 1992.
