MANILA, Philippines — The logo of the Philippines' hosting of the 2019 Southeast Asian Games recently presented in Indonesia is not yet complete, Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano said. The logo of 11 circles forming the map of the country reaped criticism on social media when Cayetano presented it during the 2019 SEA Games presentation to the Olympic Council of Asia in Jakarta, Indonesia a few weeks ago.

'It worked'Despite drawing flak, Cayetano said that the logo presented in Jakarta worked because the public, including companies, released advertisements based on the logo. The whole campaign will not only be about the Philippines but will also incorporate the SEA Games' theme "We win as one."
