Description
The regional emblem features the same design elements as the regional flag of Macau in a circular setting. The outer white ring is shown with the caption of the official name of the territory in traditional Chinese characters (as opposed to the simplified form): "中華人民共和國澳門特別行政區" (Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China) and the Portuguese short form, "Macau".
