Greetings people,
I have some questions regarding The BCKEAI emblem as it is similar to ours (NZCKEAI).One of my young students asked me a few questions regarding the emblem and for once I didnt have the answer Shocked Laughing

1)What do the colours red-yellow -blue represent?
2)Why two differant type of sword and a stick in a triangle shape?
3)Why the 3 yellow stars again in a triangle?
4)What is the yellow shape in the middle represent?
5)Who and what does the man in the middle represent?(Im presuming this is Lapulapu)

Your answers would be much apreciated.
Cheers
Riki

He is my theroy:
1)these are the colours on the Philippine flag
2)To show the council represents both blade and stick and being in a triangle represents alot aspects/convcepts in the FMA
3) & 4) are symbols on the Philippine flag
5)Im guessing this is Lapulapu

So am I on the right track with my thinking people?

Here's my thinking :

3 stars - 3 regions Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao

3 weapons - kris (kali) puniti (eskrima) stick (arnis)
