1995 Southeast Asian Games

The Chiang Mai SEA Games Organising Committee (CMSOC) was formed to oversee the staging of the games.

The 18th Southeast Asian Games had 23 venues for the games, 19 in Chiang Mai, 3 in Chonburi and 1 in Lamphun.

Sawasdee, the Siamese cat, the official mascot of the games

The logo of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games is an image of a Bo Sang umbrella which symbolises Chiang Mai as the host of the Southeast Asian Games. The image of the umbrella also resembles a running athlete, which represents the courage and determination of the games participating athletes and the participating athletes themselves. The colours of the umbrella blue, yellow, red, black and green are colours of the Olympic movement and represents the Olympic and sportsmanship spirit of the participating athletes. The 6-ring chain, the logo of the Southeast Asian Games Federation, represents the six founding nations of the Southeast Asian Games and the Southeast Asian Games itself.

The mascot of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games is a Siamese cat named Sawasdee (Thai: สวัสดี) who takes a Bo Sang umbrella with him. The Siamese cat is one of the several varieties of cat native to Thailand. As a mascot, its name Sawasdee is a word often spoken in Thai as a greeting or farewell in Thailand. Its umbrella represents Chiang Mai province, Thailand, host of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games. One of its villages, the Bo Sang Village of Chiang Mai province, is famed throughout Thailand for the making of exquisitely hand made and painted umbrellas.
