The event coincided with the national-level Stamp & Philately Club (KESEF) competition prize-giving ceremony, marking the successful conclusion of the KESEF Exploration Series nationwide which has reached nearly 43,000 members across more than 500 schools.
“Through this special stamp issue, Pos Malaysia not only celebrates the uniqueness of local art and creativity, but also pays tribute to the publishers, illustrators, and industry players who have created works that are close to the hearts of Malaysians,” said Fiona Liao.
The ‘Classic Animation’ stamp collection is available as a folder set priced at RM71.50, which includes:
- 4 stamp sheets (featuring all 4 animation designs)

Produced in collaboration with FINAS (Hikayat Sang Kancil), Iconic Animation Studio Sdn Bhd (Yokies & Keluang Man), and YBhg. Datuk (Dr.) Hj Mohmed Misbun Bin Dato’ Haji Sidek (Anak-anak Sidek), the collection showcases iconic Malaysian animations that generations have grown up with.
