The 100th Anniversary of the Causeway stamps were unveiled yesterday (06 May 2024) by DYMM YDPA Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar and Singapore’s President Tharman Shanmugaratnam at the Istana. The design is a unique joint issue with each country showing their perspective of one of the busiest land crossing in the world! The stamps will be issued by Pos Malaysia and Singapore Post. The date released by Pos Malaysia is tentatively on 24 June 2024.
