Issue Notice:
- Since the Siam Postal Service was founded 140 years ago, Thailand Post has journeyed with Thai society through every stage of development. This was a period of change for the nation as it had to adjust to become accepted by many developed nations. Because of this, the establishment of the Siam Postal Service represents another chapter in the history of the Thai people that documents its progress toward modernization in line with global norms. Thailand Post Co., Ltd. is now celebrating its 140th year in business. To mark this milestone, it has started a new era of growth and embraced modernity and innovation while also advancing the organization's important legacy of "postage stamps", or "stamps", which are seen as a key of soft power that promotes Thainess around the globe. 140th Anniversary of Thai Postal Services and Thailand 2023 World Stamp Championship Exhibition commemorative stamps are a good combination between modernism and classicism that represents Thai soft power explicity.
- Mr. O Terawat Teankaprasith: The typography of Thai number 140, which features multiple elements associated with the Thai Postal Services, is harmoniously blended with the beautiful architectural characteristics of the General Post Office building.
- Mrs. Yoon Phannapast Taychamaythakool: In honor of Thailand Post's 140th anniversary, I created this illustration of Aruna to symbolize the organization's promising future. In this image, Aruna and the butterflies are poised to serve as messengers, receiving and delivering messages and facilitating them with accuracy and precision on a daily basis as in the previous 140 years.
- Mrs. Pomme Chan: During my childhood, stamp collecting was my source of delight. The range of pictures on the stamps makes me feel fulfilled and ignites my artistic desire. I always enjoyed writing letters as a child because I noticed how they conveyed the sender's feelings - recollection, care, goodwill, and love - to a receiver. Then, the receiver got excitedly the letter. I, therefore, wanted to create a stamp to symbolize the positive emotions I experienced as a child just like "The Memories of Joyful Moment."
- Mr. Jackkrit Anantakul: My memories of Thailand Post are of the place, the ambiance, and the experience of sending and waiting for a letter to arrive. There are individuals from a variety of vocations, and it has a very Thai vibe. Most likely, every letter writer has a tale from that era as well. 140 years of Thailand Post, let me share with you the spirit of Thailand and the happiness of waiting for the postman who rode riding a bike or motorbike. The atmosphere aims to convey the happiness of the Thai people with its Thai-inspired architecture and features.
