Definitive stamp in Malaysia

Usually definitive stamps are issued separately for national series and for state series. For the national series, the set lays stamps of high value temporarily for the stamps of the state series, although it uses the same image, but puts the name and state code on the stamp image and its face value is lower.

In Malaysia the theme of flora and fauna has been used in the production of definitive stamps since 1965. The Post Department at that time released a series of birds containing eight stamps for each state in Malaysia. The stamp featured the Siul Bird for a stamp of 25 cents; Elephant Birds for 30sen; Big Turtle Bird for 50sen; Green Bird for 75sen; Birds for $ 1; pheasant for $ 2; Ivory-eagle Birds for $ 5 and Cowboys for $ 10. The series lasted for five years before being replaced by a series of butterflies that adorned the upper right corner of the envelope until 1979. Subsequently, a series of animals contained tigers, bats, deer, reindeer, turtles, tenants, tortoises and orangutans.

The stamp with pictures of iron, gold bananas, queens, papaya, mangosteen, durian and rambutan that embodies a series of local fruits for national definitive stamps was released on June 5, 1986.

The longest definitive stamp series released in Malaysia is an agricultural themed series from 1986 to 2005. The series features a variety of agricultural crops cultivated in Malaysia namely cocoa, coconut, black pepper, rubber, oil palm, and rice. However, at this time fruit-themed stamps are still used mainly for high value stamp face.

In 2005, a series of birds took their place. Among the birds on this stamp are the Birds of the Birds, the Birds of Merry Birds, the Nuri Birds, the Murai Stone, the Sharks, the Birds of the Land, the Birds of the Birds and the Big Birds. The stamps were issued in eight denominations of 20 sen, 30 sen, 40 sen, 50 sen, 75 sen, RM1, RM2 and RM5.


The latest series (2010) is a national flower themed stamp series with face value of 30 sen, 50 sen, 60 sen, 70 sen, 80 sen, 90 sen, RM1 and RM2. Among the displays on the stamp are Flower Series Morning, Paper Flowers, Flower Flowers and two new designs, Tasbih Flower and Cempaka Flower. However, Pos Malaysia still uses some of the old definitive stamp face values. The definitive stamp face value of 5 cents and 10 cents still uses agricultural themed stamps. Whereas the definitive stamp face value for 40 cents, RM5, RM10 and RM20 uses the fruit series theme.
