Macao adopted a flag this year prior to re-integration into
China on 20 December 1999. The flag is light green with a white
lotus above a stylised bridge and water and beneath an arc of
five stars: one large and four smaller as on the flag of China.
Source: Flagmaster no. 80. Note that the colour of the stars
isn't mentioned.

I have recently returned from a trip to China that included a
visit to Macau, the Portuguese enclave that will revert to China
in 1999. I saw (...) a green flag which had a stylized lotus
flower in white in the centre of the flag. This flag was flying
on every Macanese registered ship in the Macau harbour. The green
and white flag was flying near the middle of each ship. The
Portuguese flag flew from the stern of each.

This is a white background version of the Macao City municipal
flag, refered by Adolf Duran with no further information.
Aparently it was used along with (or instead of) the current
light blue for a short period of time.

(Julio's translation from the Portuguese legend: "CITY OF THE NAME OF GOD, OF MACAU, THERE IS NONE MORE LOYAL".)
