The number “40” incorporated into the logo design
gives a clear representation of ASEAN’s 40th Anniversary. The two
sharp points of the “4” meet in a manner to symbolise ASEAN’s
harmonious and key role in the progress and development of a dynamic
Asia. It also alludes to the “heart” of a resilient caring and
sharing ASEAN Community. Through the use of the official ASEAN
colours of blue (peace, stability), red (courage, dynamism), white
(purity) and yellow (prosperity), and the ASEAN emblem, the 40th
Anniversary logo reflects the goals and values that are fundamental
to ASEAN and is an expression of ASEAN’s ambition of becoming one
community.
The selection of the logo was done through a
region-wide competition. National-level contests to design a 40th
Anniversary logo for ASEAN were organised by the Ministries of
Foreign Affairs of the ten ASEAN Member Countries and the national
winners went on to compete at a regional final that took place at
the end of January 2007. The winning logo was submitted by Mr. Haji
Othman bin Haji Salleh of Brunei Darussalam.
The logo will be used to brand events and
activities that are held to commemorate ASEAN’s 40th Anniversary
throughout 2007. Any party that is interested in using the logo for
this purpose would need to apply for permission from the appropriate
authorities. Please see “How to Seek Authorisation to Use ASEAN’s
40th Anniversary Logo” that follows below.
