Partido Liberal Democrático (PLD)
In fifth place in the present Angolan Parliament is the PLD, that is, the
Partido Liberal Democrático (Liberal Democratic Party). This party
has 3 MPs and a website. It also
has a flag that is a Blue over Orange diagonal with a thin White stripe running from upper
hoist to lower fly. The blue area is charged with 18 white stars disposed
in somewhat ragged rows of (from top to bottom) 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1 stars
(curiously these are all prime numbers - I wander if this is on purpose?).
The orange area is charged with the party symbol. Despite the existence
of a relatively good image of this symbol in the party website, it is so
complex that not all details are clearly identifiable and/or accurately
drawable. In any case, it contains a white disc, two branches, probably
laurel, a bird, eventually an eagle, with open wings ans holding a 5-pointed
star that rests over a complex scroll that has something written, eventually
the party initials (PLD). All this lies over the silhouettes of a man,
a boy, a girl and a woman, which in turn stand over something black I assumed
that was possibly the full name of the party. Everything is yellow outlined
black, except the disc and the wording.
