The commemorative stamp is designed by painter To Minh Trang from the VNPT.
As part of efforts to enhance public awareness of culture, history and life-style of the ASEAN community, the ASEAN member countries agreed to issue a common stamp every two years from 2017.
The stamp features a topic chosen by all member countries, with the logo “ASEAN Post” and the typical image of the issuance country.
In 2016, Vietnamese painter Tran The Vinh won a design contest to choose the ASEAN Post logo.
