The Official Mascot of the Guangzhou 2010 Asian Para Games is unveiled.
Fun Fun, the Official Mascot of the Guangzhou 2010 Asian Para Games, is a lively Kapok, Guangzhou's native flower. In Lingnan culture, the Kapok represents strength and so Fun Fun is a wonderful ambassador for the Para Games and represents the fighting spirit of the disabled and the never ending quest for success.
In Chinese, Fun Fun is used to describe a flower's fragrance—sweet and pleasant with a lovely aroma. Fun Fun's five dancing petals create a bright smiling face, symbolising the joy felt by everyone taking part in the Games and the enthusiasm and support shown by Guangzhou, the Host City. Fun Fun's active, sporty pose symbolises the vitality of the Para Games and the power that comes with motion. Fun also has a wonderful meaning in the English language-our new friend is telling us that the Guangzhou 2010 Asian Para Games will be an unforgettable event that will be fun for everyone-a key goal of these Games.
