SINGAPORE (The Adobo Chronicles ) – Peace-loving Filipinos always know how to display or wear the Philippine flag. Or do they?

At the Southeast Asian Games in Singapore, Filipino track and field athletes, including gold medalists Eric Shaun Cray and Kayla Richardson,  were photographed wearing uniforms with an inverted Philippine flag.

The blue stripe is always on top and the red stripe on the bottom — unless the Philippines has declared, or is at war, with another country. The athletes’ uniforms had the red stripe on top.

Athletics chief Philip Juico  explained later that it was just a mistake by the supplier.

Unconfirmed reports say that the uniforms were made in China.

China and the Philippines are currently involved in an escalating territorial dispute over oil-rich islands in the South China Sea, known as the Spratly islands.

Hmmmm.
