The incident of the upside-down flags of Indonesia, Myanmar and Vietnam at the opening ceremony of the 32nd SEA Games at Morodok Techo Stadium has been criticized by netizens. The opening ceremony was exciting and successful with a party of sound and light bearing the identity of the host country, but the flag-overturning incident has caused netizens to criticize and flood the comment section on the official social media account of the 32nd SEA Games of the host country.
Netizens discover flags of some countries upside down
In the comments section, most Indonesian netizens regretted the organizers' mistake in reversing the colors of their country's flag, which was considered an unfortunate oversight. According to The Asean Football , in an opening ceremony performance, dancers held the flags of 11 countries participating in the 32nd SEA Games, but the Indonesian flag, which was originally red (top) and white (bottom), was reversed to white and red like the Polish flag.
Not only was the Indonesian flag upside down during the opening ceremony, the flags of Vietnam and Myanmar also had similar mistakes.
In response to this incident, on May 6, Town Production, as the company organizing the opening ceremony of the 32nd SEA Games, represented the Cambodian organizing committee to apologize for the upside-down flag incident. "Town Production would like to express our sincere apologies for mistakenly displaying the national flags of Indonesia, Vietnam and Myanmar at the opening ceremony of the 32nd SEA Games in 2023...", Town Production's apology letter was quoted by The Asean Football .
