The
flag of Mallet was designed by Professor Glêisi Terezinha Lopacinski, director
of Escola Normal Prof. Rocha Pombo in Mallet.
Article 2.
The flag is
rectangular with green and white as its basic colors, symbolizing forest
resources and peace, respectively. The rectangle's background is green with a
white transverse stripe charged in the center with the coat of arms of the

symbolizing hope in the next dawn. The shield features in foreground a Brazilian
