Myanmar-Russia Tiger Conservation stamps released
General news / General - Local news - Thu, 24-Jul-2025

The Myanmar Post released a new special postage stamp to commemorate the Myanmar-Russia Tiger Conservation on 20 July.
The Myanmar-Russia Tiger Preservation stamps were issued with the intention that stamp collectors and enthusiasts could collect the stamps marking the International Tiger Conservation Forum as a unified set.

The Myanmar Post released a new special postage stamp to commemorate the Myanmar-Russia Tiger Conservation on 20 July.
The Myanmar-Russia Tiger Preservation stamps were issued with the intention that stamp collectors and enthusiasts could collect the stamps marking the International Tiger Conservation Forum as a unified set.
To be able to release tiger conservation stamps, the first International Tiger Conservation Forum was held in Saint Petersburg in 2010, and the forum decided to hold the second forum in Vladivostok in 2022. Such action is intended to cooperate with countries with tiger populations for releasing stamps featuring tigers, and Myanmar and Russia cooperated for it.
The 2nd International Tiger Conservation Forum, held from 5 to 8 September 2020 in Vladivostok of Russia, hosted representatives from 14 tiger range countries and agreed to release tiger stamps dated 5 September 2022 marking the successful holding of the forum. Myanmar sent three tiger stamps to MARKA of Russia, and the stamps were sold at the Post Offices in Nay Pyi Taw, Yangon, Mandalay and other regions and states at the same time on 20 July.

The three stamps featured the photo of a Myanmar tiger, flags of Myanmar and Russia, and the release date, 20 July.
The new stamp, a Block of 3 stamps (worth K200 each), featured the photos of tigers captured at Yangon, Mandalay and Nay Pyi Taw zoological gardens, Hukaung and Htamathi Wildlife Sanctuary and the ones captured in camera traps. A total of 26 tiger stamps were designed, and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation and the Ministry of Transport and Communications cooperated to release the stamps.
“We are glad for the release of stamps. Moreover, if we work with countries with high tiger conservation methods, we will achieve significant outcomes in conservation. Tiger conservation cannot be done just by a nation, but if we work with other countries, we can prevent the extinction of tigers. Although we are far from Russia, their support in the technical sector will be supportive measures for the sustainable tiger population of Myanmar,” said U Nyein Aung, staff officer of Taninthayi Nature Reserve.
Out of nine tiger species, the three extinct tiger species are the Balinese Tigers, Caspian Tigers, and Javan Tigers. Among the six tiger species, Bengal and Indo-China tigers are found in Myanmar. The release of stamps featuring three Myanmar tigers marks the Myanmar-Russia tiger conservation activities and a milestone for the International Tiger Conservation Forum. — Nyein Thu (MNA)/KTZH
