UGANDAN KARATE-DO GOJU-KAI FLAG

This the flag of Uganda Karate-Do Goju-Kai Association (U.K.G.A).
 

a) On top is the blue colour that stands for peace. In karate-Do we pursue peace with every body.
 

b) The second colour is white that represent openness and faithfulness.
 

c) The third colour is Red. This represents unity for all people the world over. Goju-kai Uganda treats all karatekas and non karatekas equally irrespective of their gender; tribes; nationality; race; their historical background; health status; religious or political inclination or any other belief.
 

In the middle of the flag, we have the Goju-Kai fist that is part of the emblem of the Goju-Kai karate-Do Practioners that are associated to I.K.G.A Japan (Kaisho Gogen Yamaguchi style).

NB: Each colour on U.K.G.A flag, appear twice. This repeating of these colors is a point that we put much emphasis on their meanings.
