The headquarters of ASEAN located, in Jakarta. The ASEAN motto is one vision, one identity, one community.
- The ASEAN Emblem represents a stable, peaceful, united and dynamic ASEAN. ...

- The ten bound stalks of rice in the centre of the Emblem represent the member states of ASEAN. ...
- The circle represents the unity of ASEAN.
The creation of ASEAN was motivated by a common fear of communism. The group achieved greater cohesion in the mid-1970s following a change in the balance of power after the end of the Vietnam War in 1975.
