The logo of the 2010 ASEAN University Games is a Galae, a traditional house constructed with Northern Lanna style intended to prevent bad things or bad luck from entering the houses. In the logo, the Galae symbol represents the good things and happiness brought to the host nation of the games and visitors and participants from all ASEAN nations. Mascot The official mascot of the 2010 ASEAN University Games is a hill tribe youth named Nong Hug. The name Hug was chosen for the mascot, because Hug means Love in Northern Thai language which is also the beginning of unity and harmony. In English, the word Hug defines as to embrace or hold one's arms to show the love shared and to hug each other. Nong is the Thai word for young man, or little brother. The combination of love and hug as shown in the red cloth wrapped around Nong Hug's waist represents the existence of love when being hug for not just people of the host country Thailand but also participating countries of the games from Southeast Asia.http://www.chiangmai-mail.com/augsportstoday/AUG-Sports-Issue1.pdf Chiang Mai Mail 2010 ASEAN University Games newsletter Issue 1 24 June 2015 26 December 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20101226003424/http://www.chiangmai-mail.com/augsportstoday/AUG-Sports-Issue1.pdf dead The games Opening ceremony The Games opening ceremony was held at the Maejo University gymnasium on 15 December 2010, 16:14 (TST).http://www.fisu.net/en/15th-ASEAN-University-Games-Opening-Ceremony-3133.html?mbID=3343 15th ASEAN University Games: Opening Ceremony The ceremony began with the athletes from participating nations paraded into the university's gymnasium led by flag bearers.
