The national flag with provincial seal in the center.
Description from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seals_of_The_Provinces_of_Thailand:
The
provincial seal, "Rup chang nai thong nam", shows an elephant in the water as a
reference to the founding of the town by Lord Kaeo of Ma when he was sent to
capture elephants for the Lord of Chiang Mai (1825-1846).
