Everyone thought it was the end until the official mascot was revealed this week.

Yikes.

It won’t take a genius to know that this “smiling sponge ball-type figure” is not good.

Oops.

‘Pami’ is also ‘Pamimigay’ (giving away) our territories to China.

Dear SEA Games logo makers, the truth hurts

Jusko may budget kayo magpatayo ng venue na pagdadausan pero artists para gumawa ng logo at itong mascot wala kayong pambayad? Kahit sa paint sa computer ang dali-daling gawin yan ng sino maski kinder.

Getting to host the SEA Games is a big deal and considering the budget the government has allocated for it, they could really have done a better job.

My pamily!

“Pami” is also a short Filipino word “pamily” used by Janina San Miguel, joined her first pageant at only 17 years old, and she did not expect to be one of the taf 10. But as what she said, dat… “My pamily is the most important persons in my lyf.”

I think it’s time for advanced graphic design classes

Somebody please tell the SEA Games 2019 graphic designers to stop using MS Paint for their designs. https://t.co/LR9KLzy8u2

Pam-pam might just fly

The PH Sea Games’ mascot’s name is Pami. As Filipino nicknames go, it prefers be called Pam-pam. https://t.co/gOAygUlTAx

You would’ve thought we’d step up the logo game by now. Quick, SEA Games, you can still change it while the plushie production isn’t completed!

But who are we kidding.
