PT Djakarta Lloyd (Jakarta, Indonesia) - red-white-red with red DL -
http://www.dlloyd.co.id/container.jpg. I was wondering about the
use of the "Lloyd" and is this the reason for using the red-white-red flag?

I think that there may be some relationship with Nedlloyd, formerly
Rotterdamsche Lloyd, which had a flag chequy red and white with a blue block in
the center. Djakarta Lloyd's flag is red-white-red with red letters DL in the
center of the white stripe (the blue color may have been removed to associate it
more with the Indonesian flag (and less with the Dutch one)). But that's only a
guess.
