2003. The Games were opened by Vietnamese Prime Minister Phan Van Khai in the newly
constructed My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi. The Games torch was lit by Nguyen Thuy Hien of
Wushu. It was the first time in the SEA Games history that the Games venues were assigned into
two cities namely Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

named “Chim Lac”. The bird decorated the Ngoc Lu bronze drum, a typical antiquity of the ancient
Dong Son Vietnamese culture. The Emblem is composed of harmonious and vigorous curves,

and Stronger”. The colorful whirls represent the tough competitiveness in sports
The Games’ hymn was “For the World of Tomorrow”, composed by Nguyen Quang VInh.
Painter Nguyen Thai Hung chose “Trau Vang”, the golden water buffalo as the mascot for the 22nd
SEA Games. With a gentle and harmonious nature, the clever Buffalo has become synonymous
