I just learned of it yesterday and it was passed as a law (with no penalty(s) in 2012

That's all I know.

Why, however, would you even consider it a topic of conversation for Americans living in Zambia being required to pay obeisance to THAT country ?

Foreigners are free to leave the country if they can’t show respect for the flag or anthem. It’s just common courtesy.

As a foreigner in, say, Germany or Zambia, I would respectfully stand in silence while the national hymn of said country was being played - but I would not place my hand over my heart or, e.g., bow or genuflect.

The Code apparently requires everyone (including foreigners) to place the hand over the heart - which I (as an American) would personally find distasteful.

Regards,
