The band around the cap synthesizes the Great Wall of China, one of the most recognized monuments of this earth, the OMAS logo emerging from one of the Wall’s majestic gates, and the 4 ideograms meaning “Return to the Motherland’s in Chinese.
The barrel of the pen follows this theme of combining Hong Kong and Chinese motifs. Sculpted into the metal sheath of the barrel, two Chinese dragons, mother and child, allude to the relationship between Hong Kong and China and support the emblem of their unity, the pink Chinese dolphin. The Chairman of the Association, Dr. Raymond Wu, chose the pink Chinese dolphin as the reunification icon for a several reasons.
