PETALING JAYA: The Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games official mascot has a Malaysian twist to it as it is designed by 10-year-old British-Malaysian girl Emma Lou.

According to the Games organiser, Emma was chosen from hundreds of designs submitted by children aged five to 15 who entered a UK-wide competition last summer to create a mascot that represents the history, identity and culture of Birmingham and the West Midlands.
