Morning in Singapore

Issue date 04 Aug 2017

Overview

The morning in Singapore stamp issue illustrates an interesting juxtaposition of various morning scenes that are close to the hearts of Singaporeans. The scenes depicted in the stamps are all familiar activities we experience – sending the children to school, catching a bus to work, enjoying breakfast at the hawker centre, using the park connector network for leisure, beginning the day with exercises at a nearby fitness corner, and shopping for fresh produce at a wet market. The visual narrative of this stamp issue centres around the lifestyles of ordinary folks on a typical morning, as well as spotlighting on the hustle and bustle of a uniquely Singaporean heartland town.
