MYANMAR Post, under the Ministry of Transport and Communications, will issue a special commemorative stamp for the month of Tawthalin on 30 August, 2019 (1st waxing of Tawthalin, 1381 ME).

The K200 stamp will portray the Regatta Festival and the yinmar flower (scientific name Chukrasia tabularis) which are both associated with the sixth month of the traditional calendar. The stamp will be available in post offices across the states and regions.

As a special programme, Nay Pyi Taw Central Post Office and the post offices in Yangon and Mandalay will stamp the postmark on the first-day covers and stamps purchased on 30 August. — MNA (Translated by Zaw Htet Oo)
