I was in contact with the provincial authorities of Panama in
2003. Bocas del Toro has a flag: for sport events. Green over
yellow used also in the commemoration of the centennial of the
province on 16 November 2003.
At time I write them, there's no official flag but
later (unknown date) is possible that a diagonal divided flag of
Yellow/green, was adopted, with five white stars in semicircle in
centre and a letter B in black. I don't have any confirmation of
this flag.
