The metal Ox ‘stamps’ its mark worldwide this Chinese New Year


Taiwan's Chunghwa Post is marking the Year of the Ox with a set of two stamps and a souvenir sheet aptly themed 'turning the situation around.' The images on the stamps are inspired by the art of paper cutting. Photos: Handout

To coincide with the Year of the Ox celebrations, a list of countries have launched special edition stamps featuring richly artful designs and meaningful elements, all steeped in their respective cultures and traditions.

There is still no news (at press time) of Pos Malaysia Berhad joining in the festivities with its own Ox collection. But there is no shortage of wonderful Chinese New Year stamps issued around the world to get philatelists and art lovers all excited.
