SANYA, China, July 21, 2020 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

On the evening of July 19, the theme song of 6th Asian Beach Games, as well as 
the slogan, nicknames, emblem and theme song of volunteers, was released in 
Sanya, China.

On the occasion of the first anniversary of the founding of the Organizing 
Committee and the cultural promotion program of ABG, Zheng Hai, the lyricist of 
the theme song, said that the song quoted the English slogan of the Games, "See 
ya in Sanya", highlighting international elements and extending sincere 
invitations to athletes and tourists from all over the world.

"The melody of the song is very consistent with Hainan's geographical features, 
which reminds people of the spectacular ebb and flow of the sea," said Chen 
Chusheng, the theme song singer.

At the same day, the slogan, nicknames, emblem and theme song of ABG's 
volunteers were also released. The volunteers' slogan is "Meet in ABG, Bring 
Love to the World", which implies that the ABG brings volunteers from all walks 
of life together in Sanya. It advocates the concept of "making volunteer 
service a fashion" and aims to make athletes and tourists from across Asia feel 
the enthusiasm, love and warmth of Sanya. The nicknames of volunteers are "Deer 
Brother" and "Deer Sister", which not only include the Hainan Eld's deer, which 
is the prototype of the ABG mascot "Yaya", but also incorporate the distinctive 
local dialect "Age" (brother) and "Amei" (sister). The nicknames are catchy and 
easy to spread. The volunteers' emblem, based on ABG's emblem, is designed with 
an additional "loving heart", which echoes the volunteers' slogan and conveys 
the volunteers' perception of "loving the ABG". The theme song of volunteers, 
entitled "Meet with You and Warm You Up", is created in the style of a lyric 
pop song with a view to promoting the volunteer spirit of "Dedication, 
Friendship, Mutual Assistance and Progress", vividly showing the demeanor of 
ABG's volunteers.

According to the Sixth Asian Beach Games Organizing Committee (SABGOC), the 
solicitation of the slogan, nicknames, emblem and theme song for the volunteers 
of the 6th ABG was started in November 2019, and more than 900 applications 
were received. These works were reviewed by experts, and the selected ones were 
subject to several optimizations and modifications.
