Mascot


The official mascot for the games is Ayeyarwady Dolphin. It was chosen for its presence in the three rivers of Southeast Asia Nations: Ayeyarwady River (MYANMAR), the Mahakam River (INDONESIAN BORNEO) and Mekong River.
They are the most intelligent animal among all animals all over the world. And they are adorable, active, intelligent, friendly and helpful. So using the Ayeyarwady Dolphin can reflect that young people are active, intelligent, youthful, helpful and kind.
For Myanmar, Ayeyarwady Dolphin is one of the luckiest one of Myanmar because they always help Fishermen in catching fishes and can attract the interest of foreigners by Ecotourism.Nowadays there are a few left and almost endanger. So Myanmar want all of you to know that all of us must protect Ayeyarwady Dolphin from disappearing.
