Philpost To Issue Noynoy Stamp

It's all over the news today!

The Philippine Postal Corporation (Philpost) is set to issue a commemorative stamp featuring President-elect Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" Aquino III.

“It has been part of our tradition that when there is a new president, we would come out with a new stamp,” said Assistant Postmaster General Luis Carlos.

The stamp is set to be issued after the new president's oathtaking on June 30, 2010.

“There is a protocol that we have to follow. The pictures of Senator Aquino that would be used in the stamp would depend on the photos that would be provided by president-elect Aquino’s staff. As soon as we receive the pictures, we would process it immediately,” Carlos adds.

The Noynoy Aquino stamp will surely be a hit. I can't wait to have a complete set so I can add it to my Philippine Presidents on stamps collection and website.
