KUALA LUMPUR, May 31 – Pos Malaysia, in collaboration with China Post, is launching a special joint stamp collection to commemorate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Malaysia and the People’s Republic of China. This milestone marks half a century of friendship, trust, and mutual respect since the historic Joint Communiqué was signed by Malaysia’s second Prime Minister, Tun Abdul Razak bin Hussein, and China’s Premier Chou En-lai on 31 May 1974.
The commemorative stamps feature Malaysia’s national tree, the Merbau, and China’s iconic Greeting Pine, symbolizing the enduring strength and hospitality of both nations. The stamp set includes a sheet of 20 RM1.50 stamps, a First Day Cover with stamps and special cancellation, and a folder, all priced at RM39.50. This exclusive collection will be available starting 31 May 2024 at Pos Malaysia’s Philatelic Bureaus, 13 General Post Offices nationwide, and online at Pos Malaysia Shop. Celebrate this significant milestone and bring home a piece of history with this unique stamp collection.
