The 61st FIFA congress was held at Hellenstadion in Zurich, Switzerland on 31
May - 01 June 2011 (www.fifa.com).
Flags of the 208 member associations plus those of FIFA six continental
confederations, International Olympic Committee,
United Nations and FIFA itself
were hoisted on the ceiling of Hellenstadion convention center.
Out of the photo gallery published by FIFA in its official website, I share the
following notes:
- Chinese Taipei flag was a blue one with old
association's emblem: plum blosoom with sun, ying-yang and footballs.
- The Curazao flag (blue with yellow stripe and white stars) is already hoisted,
there is no flag for the defunc Netherlands Antilles.
- The Somalia flag was hoisted upside-down, e.g. downwar five-pointed star.
- The OFC flag is white withe the new emblem and abbreviation.
- The AFC flag is white.
- The UEFA flag is blue with the confederation's emblem
- The CONCACAF is white.
- The CAF flag bears the new logo on white background.

The first and oldest emblem of the Assian Fooball Association was in since
1954, and replaced in October 2001. The emblem consiste of a shield bearing
the initial of the body: AFC above a football-ball and beneath a scroll that
read "Asia".
The emblem used to be employed on yellow or green clothes.

A new flag of the Asian Football Confederation -AFC-, adopted in
October 2001.
This is a blue field (like FIFA's) with the new AFC's logo.
The motto reads: The future is Asia.
The flag was seen during the Preliminary Draw of the AFC Nations Cup to be held by the
People's Republic of China in 2004.

they show the AFC
fair play logo on a
blue flag, vindicating the same fair play principles as
FIFA's. These images were
taken during the AFC Champions league competition, the most important club
competition organized by the AFC.
