Pos Malaysia will be releasing the below beautiful stamps on 13 May 2013. I am impressed by the three bird stamps - Malayan Peacock Pheasant, Guold's Frogmouth and Helmeted Hornbill. Yes, I particularly like the hornbill stamp. The last time helmeted hornbill appearing on Malaysian stamp was in 1983. Apart from the bird stamps, I am also delighted to see a rafflesia stamp and a pitcher plant stamp. Nevertheless, these stamps have adhesive gum. I was informed that these stamps are printed in Thailand. So, this will be the second Malaysian stamp issue printed by Thailand. It is said that the General Election of Malaysia held a few days ago is the reason why the last stamp issue (
Lighthouses) and this coming stamp issue (
Wonders of Malaysian Forests) were printed in Thailand. Our local printers were busy printing election materials for the just over General Election.
