Malaysia Stamps 2023 - Malaysia Day 2023 - September 16, 2023 Issue

This stamp issue was postponed from Friday to Monday September 18, 2023. I visited Penang GPO to create these First Day Covers. As it was only a single RM1.30 stamp, I also added past issues of Malaysia themed stamps to create hybrid FDC for my own collection and enjoyment.

Malaysia Stamps 2023 - Penang Hill Railway 100th Anniversary - August 22, 2023 Issue

Visited Pulau Pinang Main Post Office, Air Itam Post Office and Pos Malaysia Bukit Bendera Booth at Penang Hill Bottom Station to create these Fist Day Cover with special cancellations with a commemorative train ticket to celebrate the 100th anniversary and special cover from Penang Philatelic Society.

 

Malaysia Stamps - Largest Chengal Tree - Pokok Cengal Terbesar - July 27, 2023 Issue

Featuring this Peninsular Malaysia endemic tropical hardwood tree. The largest Chengal Tree found near Dungun, Terengganu. 1) I visited Penang GPO to buy stamps, FDC envelope and get the first FDC chop. 2) Then I visited Bagan Serai Post Office in Perak as this a post office that started to have First Day chop but the Post Office had returned their chop earlier in the day and so I have to contend to buying a precancelled Bagan Serai FDC. 3) Then to chop my remaining uncancelled FDCs which I was hoping to cancel at Bagan Serai PO, I visited nearby Parit Buntar Post Office, Perak - an unplanned third post office visit. 4) Received a FDC cancelled at Jinjang Post Office from a Kuala Lumpur collector.
