Kemerovo Region is the homeland of the Shor people
(Ŝorcy, in russian), one of the largest russian
peoples without it’s own
republic or autonomous district.

Flag is blue and red vertically (1:2), flag ratio 1:2.

At the Kemerovo.SU
website there are images of arms and flag of Kemerovo oblast and, if I
understand correctly, these symbols have been adopted 07.06.2002.
Pascal Gross, 07 Oct 2002
Sergei Sherniakov, of the Heraldic comitee of Perm Region, reports that
the adoption date of the Kemerovo oblast flag is rather 29 May 2002.
Jaume Ollé, 02 Sep 2003
At the end of 90 acceptance of standart the
governor was extended. Such standarts were accepted in the Kemerovo
area.
Sergey Filatov, 10 Oct 2005
Most of these flags are squarish (about 11:12),
rigid and fringed variants of the region (Governors) or Republic (Presidents)
flags with the regional emblem over all.
António Martins, 02 Oct 2005

The other parts of the coat of arms are golden.
Pascal Gross, 07 Oct 2002

of Lenin Order. »…« Date of foundation of the Kemerovo oblast,
1943, written on central part of ORDER’S RIBBON» Ribbon of Lenin
Order is red with two thin gold stripes on each edge.

At www.web.kuzbassnet.ru/ger_ksb.shtm
there is information about the former arms of the oblast, adopted in
1994, together with an undocumented flag design.
Victor Lomantsov, 23 Dec 2002
A page at
Kuzbassnet.RU
(I don’t know how official this website is) the white-black-green flag is
pictured together with a coat of arms totally different from the
official one.
Pascal Gross, 07 Oct 2002
It is arms of the oblast, adopted in 1994.
Victor Lomantsov, 23 Dec 2002
This flag design uses the same colors as the official “emblem”
of Kemerovo city (which is very different from
its flag), available at the
municipal website.
António Martins, 04 Oct 2006
In the accompanying text, there is no info about
approving these symbols of the Kemerovo Region.
I guess that the white-black-green tricolore is
somebody’s personal invention — a combination of the
“traditional” (= civil war) flag of
Siberia (white over green)
with a black stripe (standing for coal industry)…
Jan Zrzavy, 07 Oct 2002 and 09 Oct 2002
This flag is clearly a variant of the
siberian colors, consisting of
unequal stripes of white (5) black (2) and green (5),
with a ratio of 3:5.
About the meaning of the superimposed black stripe I
can only speculate that it relates to coal, being the
north of this region very industrialized and harbouring
a large coal mining basin — kuzbas.
