This flag reflects the state, and the reason why they put first the white color is to represent that peace reigns in their country. The people also believe that conversing is the way to stop chaos instead of challenging each other's bravery, so they placed red towards the bottom.

So this means, a blue triangle tells an importance that the people should be vigilant, loyal and true, determined and fair.
