Sarawakian artist Joseph Romey Dures speaks of his latest art project with pride and excitement, but it is also a sentimental and nostalgic journey for him. Due to the pandemic, he has to sit out yet another trip back to his hometown Kuching during Hari Gawai, but his thoughts are very much with family and friends there, especially while designing a national stamp series that was recently released by Pos Malaysia.
In conjunction with the upcoming harvest festival in Sarawak and Sabah, this stamp set features the sights and sounds of Hari Gawai and Pesta Kaamatan respectively.
