"The Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat (TCS) is an international 
organization established with a vision to promote peace and common prosperity 
among the People’s Republic 
of China (China), Japan, 
and the Republic of
Korea (ROK/South Korea). Upon the agreement signed and ratified by each of 
the three governments, the TCS was officially inaugurated in Seoul, September 
2011. On the basis of equal participation, each government shares 1/3 of total 
operational budget."

Its flag is the

The official explanation of the logo is as follows: 
"The TCS logo design is “the 
dynamic and powerful upsurge of the Great Wave in calligraphic design shared by 
the three countries”. The logo symbolizes that the three countries and the 
trilateral cooperation itself surge in the Great Wave of the 21st century with 
dynamism."
