Logo Rationale

By Ricky Guing Senen, 5th October 2006

Shape of the Logo

A rounded shape of the logo portrays unity and dynamism among the major groups of the Bidayuh graduates.

Five graduation hats facing the epicentre represent graduates from five main Bidayuh groups converging towards a focal point – a single association – Sarawak Bidayuh Graduates Association.

The elaborate use of graduation hats represents the achievement of having attained higher education, intellect and experience to serve the community and the State. Each hat represents a nib of a pen facing one another in unifying formation to signify co-operation, solidarity - an important indication that a paradigm shift (a changing mind-set) is taking place which will usher in the age of consciousness within the Bidayuh community.

The war cry “Progress through Education” is used to instill the importance of education and to rally the Bidayuh Graduates to endeavour and succeed in achieving set goals and objectives.

Use of Letters

The letter “B” stands for Bidayuh. The letter “G” stands for Graduates and the letter “A” stands for Association.

Use of Colours

The green background represents the growth and progress of the Bidayuh community within the development framework.

The white circle in the middle of the logo represents promise of the future for the Bidayuh as being bright if they put their minds together and work smartly towards common goals and objectives.

The use of red and yellow in the graduation hats are the colours of our bravery, commitment, maturity and experience of the Association’s leadership and members while the yellow background illuminate the Bidayuhs’ loyalty and determination to co-exist in harmony within multi-racial communities of Sarawak.
