Just wanted to point out the flag mentioned (the 2 crossed AK's before a snow capped mountain on a red background) is the Flag of the PLA not the Nepali Maoists. Whilst the PLA fought for the Maoists, they were sent into open air containment camps and eventually sold out by that party. So I thought it best to point out the difference, for any readers interested in the People's Movement of Nepal.
