Malaysia - Quails and Partridges

One of the favourite topics on Malaysian modern stamps is bird. Among the many bird stamp sets released by Malaysia postal authority, I particularly fancy the stamp set on quails and partridges issued on 22 January, 2001. The stamp set consisted of three denominations (30 sen, 50 sen and RM1) and a miniature sheet containing two stamps (two designs of RM2). This stamp set was designed by Mr. Teh Yew Kiang, a well-known artist on subject of birds. The artworks on birds of Mr. Teh are so fine and vivid. I have to agree that this stamp set is one of the most beautiful sets released by Malaysia postal authority.
