5. Where do you think lie the strengths of the German flag?

In its first name. Germany has always been a highly respected shipping location and if it was a matter of course – as it is for many of our neighbours – to, first and foremost, think of one's national flag, much would already be achieved. Most of the old negative points in comparison to other flags have long since been improved upon and the Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport wants to facilitate even further simplification of procedures and processes. This is indeed necessary and we should wish the BMDV and the other participants success in their endeavour.
