    Forgot to mention that if you took out the Green and white it would basically just be the flag of Vietnam... which also ends in "NAM"...and BOTH have 7 letters in their name (Technically "Surinam" is acceptible in some contests like the national airline Surinam ariways) .... *(X-files theme song in background). LOL.
    In Any case Enjoy #SURINAM's Flag/ Fan Friday. You get to see Keith going "Wheeew" so it's worth it.

    One of those Surinamese living in diaspora in The Netherlands is Jeangu Macrooy, who was the Dutch representative to the Eurovision Song Contest hosted in Rotterdam this year. (He was also going to represent them last year, but that contest was understandably canceled.)
    The song was sadly one of (an unbelievable) four that got zero points from the voting public. :(
