Majene

Majene: flag photo Majene, founded in c.1830, whose capital is Saleppe. located in West Sulawesi. FYI: This flag referred to as “Bendera Kebesaran Kerajaan Mandar Majene”, which roughly means Mandar State of Majene Great Flag. Janis cannot exclude possibility that is general Mandar confederacy flag, not just Majene flag.
