Why does the BAQ 2006 logo have a face?
The face on the official BAQ 2006 logo comes from traditional Indonesian shadow puppetry. The face belongs to Indra, god of the air. The colors in his headpiece are the same colors used by Yogyakarta, and each color symbolizes a specific virtue. Green at the top represents prosperity which symbolizes the state of the organization (BAQ). Red represents bravery, and is defined by the courage to take on endeavors or hurdle obstacles. Yellow is nobleness, and black represents eternity. The spire structure behind Indra depicts the monument of the City of Yogyakarta.
