first time in SEA Games history that the games venues were assigned into two cities namely Ha Noi

legendary bird named “ Chim Lac”. The bird decorated the Ngoc Lu bronze drum, a typical antiquity
of ancient Dong Son Vietnamese culture. The Emblem is composed of harmonious and vigorous
curves, creating a feeling of movement and strength which conforms to the Olympic Spirit : “ Faster,
Higher, and Stronger”. The colorful whirls represent the tough competitiveness in sports.

country of the 22
