As per, Wikipedia. Which i think most would deem to be a reliable source...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_desecration

It is also illegal in Finland. I would venture to imagine if I looked further I could find more. Considering I found one the first place I looked.
Did you read the wikipedia article or just see a bunch of countries listed and assume I was wrong. Most of those countries listed, if you read it, ban the burning of foreign national flags but not their own. Finland, yes, add them to the list of China, Cuba and Iran. Oh, to dispose of a worn out Finnish flag you should burn it or cut it to pieces small enough not to be recognizable as parts of the flag.
