ASEAN Themes and Logos from 2010 to 2015

Every year, ASEAN changes its chairmanship according to the alphabetical order of the English names of the 10 Member States. Whoever assumes the chairmanship shall uphold the responsibilities of hosting the annual ASEAN related summits and council meetings.

It is also interesting to note that the host country shall also formulate a theme and logo which will be used for the entire year of its chairmanship. 

Malaysia is the ASEAN Chair for 2015 and the theme of its Chairmanship is "Our People, Our Community, Our Vision."

Do you have any idea about the themes and logos of ASEAN for the past five years? Let's take a look at them. 


ASEAN 2015: Malaysia

Description of the logo:

1. The ten coloured curved elements that form a circle around the ASEAN logo reflect the harmony, close partnership and aspiration of the people from the ASEAN countries aimed at achieivng the shared vision;

2. The ten curved elements also represent the atomic molecular loop that denotes the progress made by ASEAN member countries in science and technology to bring about economic growth and prosperity;

3. The combination of multiple colours represent the diversity of talents of ASEAN people in various fields propelling their countries forward; and

4. The colours of the logo reflect: -

ASEAN 2014: Myanmar



Myanmar has set the theme for 2014 ASEAN Chair as “Moving Forward in Unity to a Peaceful and Prosperous Community”. The solidarity of ASEAN is the first and foremost ingredient for ASEAN to be credible in the world and to be fully integrated into a community. The ultimate goal of ASEAN is to reach to a peaceful and prosperous community where ASEAN will be outward looking, playing a leading role in emerging regional architecture and contributing to the healthy development of global community, people-centred, caring and socially responsible, economically dynamic, sustainable and resilient, maintaining peace, stability and harmony. Myanmar’s chairmanship of ASEAN aims to add value to these ASEAN objectives and dynamics.


ASEAN 2013: Brunei Darussalam



Brunei Darussalam’s theme for the Chairmanship is “Our People, Our Future Together”. This theme stresses the role of the people in ASEAN Member States in advancing cooperation in the areas of political-security, economic and socio-cultural. It also asserts that the region’s future is dependent on how the people of ASEAN move and work together to ensure progress for the development of the whole region.”


ASEAN 2012: Cambodia



ASEAN 2011: Indonesia



ASEAN 2010: Vietnam


Theme: 

 “Towards the ASEAN Community: from Vision to Action"


I've tried to look for the descriptions of the logos and themes of 2010 to 2012 but unfortunately, I found none. The websites must have been deleted or inactive already. However, I'm hoping that somehow you have gained insights about the different ASEAN themes from the years 2010 up to the present.
