In June 2007 I visited Macau and found their flag and emblem adopted March 31st 1993
and other 15 finalists as attached. Those proposed flags and arms are displayed in the
Macau Museum.

Stylized red "M" with large red star above four smaller four red stars in an arc open to the top on the center of the central panel of a red, white and red horizontal "Spanish" triband of red, white and red.
The "M" stands for Macao, and the five stars refer to China (as in the
P.R.C. flag).

parallel thin horizontal dark blue stripes at the bottom.

Quite similar to the adopted proposal, but red and lacking the bridge and

A white lighthouse under golden star with white halo ring and two cones of
light dividing the flag in upper red part and lower blue part. This 1865
lighthouse is the oldest
in Asia and a UNESCO heritage site.

Vertical bicolor of dark green and red with white gull above bridge in
white overall. The colors may show a link to Portugal and the bridge seems
to be Gov.
Nobre de Carvalho Bridge.

Red triangle with base fully on the hoist and apex on the center of the
fly edge, filled with the pattern of the Peoples Republic of China flag, on dark green
background. Apparently and joining of the Portuguese and Chinese
flags.

Red flag with white stylized bridge outline under five yellow stars set in
counterchevron parallel to the bridge "hump". The stars and red background
color stand surely for the Chinese flag, and the bridge seems to be
Gov. Nobre de
Carvalho Bridge.
