Background Info:
This year the Chinese lunar New Year falls on February 18, 2007. It is the ding-hai year (ding is the fourth of the Ten Celestial Stems and hai is the last of the Twelve Terrestrial Branches) and signifies the year of the pig. To welcome the year of the pig, Chunghwa Post has chosen the work of Miss Wu Jen-feng (who won a competition of drawing the Chinese zodiac animals) for a set of two New Year's Greeting Postage Stamps (Issue of 2006.) In addition, a miniature sheet designed by Miss Chen Yu-wen will be released along with the two stamps. The designs of the stamps follow:
1. NT$3.50 Stamp: This stamp features a pig with a traditional Chinese pattern in the background to convey the festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year. A cute plump pig is running toward Chinese characters that mean "ding-hai year," symbolizing the joy of welcoming the New Year.
2. NT$13.00 Stamp: "Gongs and drums sounding to Heaven," the theme of the stamp, captures the happy and festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year. The bluish-purple silhouette of a piglet and the Chinese characters that mean "ding-hai year" are set against a background of a group of festive looking bright red drums. Together they convey a lively and cheerful New Year's atmosphere.
