Posted on by sky52200

Here is the 2026 Tentative Malaysia Stamp Issue Programme Schedule:

The next issue will be the National Visual Arts Treasure Series 3 and it will again feature 3 stamps plus a miniature sheet of the visual arts from the National Art Gallery (Balai Seni Negara).

Series 1 (with a mysterious cancellation without Biro Filateli???): https://myfdc.me/malaysia-first-day-covers/2001-2010/2008-2/

Series 2: https://myfdc.me/malaysia-first-day-covers/2011-2020/2011-2/

Balai Seni Lukis Personalised Stamps (Setem Ku) and Cover: https://myfdc.me/2018/10/04/the-rise-of-setemku-personalised-stamps-first-day-covers/

It is actually FREE to visit and reachable by MRT.

Here is a video of one of the galleries – look out for the artwork of previous stamp issues too!

Here are some of philatelic interest (yes they sometimes have multilayer stamping too – all for FREE!!!!):

It is worth a visit and plan out about half a day to enjoy the galleries. Sadly the Hospital Kuala Lumpur Post Office has closed, so the next best cancellation is KLCC.

125 Years of Institute of Medical Research is another good commemorative issue.

Back in 2013, Pos Malaysia issued a series of Research Centres and the 70 sen stamp featured the Institute of Medical Research: https://myfdc.me/2023/05/15/next-issue-18-may-2023-research-centres-in-malaysia/

Surprisingly the 100 Years of Institute of Medical Research was issued in 2000! Technically it should be in 2001…. anyway, one of the philatelic mysteries. https://myfdc.me/malaysia-first-day-covers/1991-2000/2000-2/

Further back in time, the 75th Anniversary of the Institute of Medical Research was correctly issued in 1976! https://myfdc.me/malaysia-first-day-covers/1971-1980/1976-2/

Here is the history of the Institute of Medical Research (IMR): https://imr.nih.gov.my/en/corporate-info/history

Not much information now on the Parrot and Flora so sit tight and come back to read again later on in the year.

One thing for sure, Parrot issue will need a holiday in Penang to Pejabat Pos Bayan Baru Post Office! https://maps.app.goo.gl/UirTTAg9HQkUFmGM9

Happy Philatelic Adventures!
