From this Perlis in Brief webpage:
Perlis's flag consist of two same size horizontal lines. The upper one which is yellow in color depicts the King while the other one which is blue color depicts citizens of Perlis. Therefore this flag emblems tight relationship between the King and the citizens.[Perlis emblem:] The paddy depicts the main economic activity and the main product of Perlis. The shield depicts the glory of state.
Flaggenbuch 1939 shows the national flag with proportion 2:3.
