The 22nd SEA Games were held in Hanoi, Vietnam from 5 December to 13 December, 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.
The 22nd SEA Games logo designed by painter Nguyen Chi Long is based on a legendary bird
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, 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
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 with the water and rice
civilization that is so important in Vietnam as well as in other Southeast Asian countries. To Vietnamese
