About
In Australia, you might see three flags flying together: the Australian National Flag, the Aboriginal Flag and the Torres Strait Islander Flag. Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples are the two distinct Indigenous peoples of Australia, each with their own histories, cultures, languages and flag. For many Torres Strait Islander people, the flag is a powerful symbol of identity and belonging, whether they live on the islands, the mainland or overseas. - Sa Australia, makikita ang tatlong bandila na sabay na nakawagayway: ang Australian, Aboriginal, at Torres Strait Islander Flag. Iba-iba ang dalawang katutubong grupo ng bansa, may kanya-kanyang kasaysayan, kultura, wika, at bandila. Para sa Torres Strait Islander people, ang kanilang bandila ay simbolo ng pagkakakilanlan at pag-aari, nasaan man sila sa mundo.
