Mrs. Janelle Aquing, Senior Protocol Officer, Office of the Chief Secretary, Protocol & Public Relations Unit gave me the address of companies which manufacture flags. Unfortunately, she was not able to assist with purchasing and re-selling me a flag. Anyway, my expressed interest in the Tobago House of Assemly and its flag is still very present and my emails to

Baker Enterprises
7 Fourth Street, De La Marre, Trinicity, Trinidad and Tobago
Email: [email protected]

were not answered. I'd like to buy a flag in the dimensions of 3 m and 2 m like it flows in front of the Tobagonian House of Assembly. I might pay the sum by PayPal or Western Union, but I need a person who contacts Baker Enterprises and re-sells me the Tobagonian Flag.

Thanks a lot to the friendly person assisting me. I'm from Switzerland and I'd like to have your flag flown here as souvenir to my stay in Tobago in 2006.

Dear Lisa, unfortunately there is no Tobagonian Flag shown in the product list, and there is also no email address to contact. Could you perhaps try to ask them? My spoken english on phone is rather second class.

Hi Luciano,

is the flag. I'm sorry, but you'd almost certainly need to give them credit card details to send it to you, so you'd need to speak to them directly. I can only suggest that you telephone them with credit card details.

Lisa.

Dear Lisa, dear Gary
the problem is, that I like to buy the Tobagonian Flag with the motto "Pulchrior Evenit", that flies in front of the Tobagonian House of Assembly in Scarborough and which is in a light blue I remember, not the Trinidad and Tobago Flag which is very easy to get anywhere, also here in Switzerland. But if I ask a Flag maker here to produce the Tobagonian Flag, he will not have the detailed drawings. Only in T&T the details of this flag are known.
I'll try to phone to Baker's.

Hi Ronald,
thanks for your offer, which I appreciate very much. You'll see the flag which can be described as the logo of the THA beside the T&T flag in front of the THA. The cloth is a light blue and the logo is in colours, completely different from the red-white-black flag of T&T.
I wish you a pleasant stay at Tobago, myself I shall be learning Russian at Kaliningrad then.

Luciano.I am not sure whether that flag is available as it is the seal of the original THA.I have put out some feelers for you to see if it is and if so how to get it.

Thank you, David
as it is the seal of the original THA, it might be easier to get one where the words "Tobago House Of Assembly" are omitted. It would be splendid enough for me and I wouldn't pretend that my house is a branch of the THA.

I'm sure if you get a good photo of it a flag maker would be able to put one together for you.
