Using his attributions, the Governor of the State of Mato Grosso do Sul instituted the
Flag of the State on January 1 St. 1979. The Flag, created by Mauro Miguel Munhoz, has
been described by its author as follows: "Our symbol is the equilibrium, the
fortitude and the serenity. We are the golden star which shines on the blue sky of hope,
symbolizing the richness of our labor.
The forest and the lanes of our State represent a challenge and at the same
time, the conscience of preservation of our green, our greatest treasure which is nature.
We are the State of equilibrium, where siderurgical chimneys and forest areas
will peacefully coexist side by side.
Between the green and the blue, in the practical! convergence of all our
attitudes, we are the white binder of the future, the serene purity of friendship among
people".
