Official statutes on the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) symbols

I found the following provisions of the OCA Constitution that pertain to the OCA (Asian Games) Flag:

Art. 26 Flag of the Council.

The Council shall have its own Flag which will be as follows: The Flag of the Council will have a white background with no border. In the centre it will have a bright sun in red with 16 rays and a white circle in the middle of the disc of the sun. Under the sun there will be interlaced rings in gold in a semi-circle. The number of interlaced rings will correspond to the number of Asian National Olympic Committees affiliated to the Council. The Flag will also have the five Olympic rings at the top and the words "Ever Onward" will also be shown with the Olympic rings. The Flag will be approved by the E.B. and the General Assembly. The Flag of the Council or any part of it will be registered as a trade mark and cannot be used for any purpose without the prior consent of the President, O.C.A. The Council's Flag shall be the sole property of the Council.

Art. 27 Emblem of the Council.

The Council shall have its own Emblem which will be as follows: The sun and the interlaced rings as shown in the Flag together with the motto "Ever Onward" in dark blue shall constitute the Emblem of the Council. The Emblem and Motto of the Council shall be the sole property of the Council and cannot be used without the prior consent of the President.

Art. 28 Council Hymn.

The Council shall have its own Sports Hymn which will be selected by the E.B. and approved by the General Assembly. The Sports Hymn of the Council shall be the sole property of the Council and cannot be used without the prior written consent of the President.
