<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Here is the transcription of the text found on the philatelic insert:</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Angels, in the Christian faith, are divine messengers. They
fly between heaven and earth, bringing down the word of God. Angels can be
heralds of joy and symbol of heavenly paradise, as what they are pictured as
musicians. The biblical book of Luke recounts how an angel descended to earth
with the joyful news of the very first Christmas: the birth of Jesus, Savior of
Humankind.</span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">“We Filipinos express our love in a unique way. My drawing
shows the sharing of Love between a Filipino and a Filipina. One way is giving
gifts and flowers to the conservative Filipina. I believe that women deserve
high respect from the men. Another way is serenading the Filipina by playing
the guitar and singing sweet songs. Like the old traditions, it is very
romantic to witness this kind of gesture. The birds hold a flower and a letter
symbolizing sending of love through these things. Letter shows true love
towards the girl through words. [Valentine’s] is a day we do these things to
show love [b]ut let us not forget that we should express our love to others all

The central stamp showcases this year's animal, the horse. With a value of Php 100, the stamp design features a gold-foil embossed likeness of a horse. To its left is a smaller stamp worth Php 50 that features a silvery likeness of the animal in last year's zodiac, the snake. At the other side (right) of the horse stamp is another smaller stamp also worth Php 50 that features a bronzen likeness of next year's animal zodiac, the goat. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Each souvenir sheet is worth Php 200. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">On December 20, four painters from the Association of Mouth
and Foot Painting Artists (AMFPA) turned over their works of art to the
Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost). These masterpieces were featured in
the stamps, souvenir sheet, and first day cover cachets for the stamps that the
PHLPost issued for Christmas 2013.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Founded in 1956, the Association gave members the means to support

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The AMFPA is not a charitable organization but an
international commercial for-profit group that owned and run by artists who lost
the ability to use their hands and use either their mouth or feet to create
their work. As the <a href="http://www.mfpausa.com/">motto of the United States division</a> of the
association puts it, “Self Help – Not Charity.” Although initially accepted as
student members, artist are trained until the reach the required artistic skill

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Today, the Feast of Our Lady of
the Rosary of La Naval de Manila is celebrated. The feast revolves on the ivory
and wood statue depicting Our Lady of the Rosary currently enshrined at the
Santo Domingo Church (National Shrine of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary). I last
visited the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary in 2005 although I
hope to be able to do so during the festivities next year.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The statue was commissioned by
Spanish Governor-General Dasmariñas in memory of his father in 1593. It is said that a
Chinese immigrant was responsible for sculpting the image, explaining the
statue’s Asian features. The statue was later given to the Dominican
friars, who installed it at the Santo Domingo Church. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Just as the title of Our
Lady of the Rosary was established through a naval battle, the devotion to Our
Lady of the Rosary of La Naval de Manila came to be because of the victory of
the Philippine-Spanish forces against the Protestant Dutch invasion of Manila
in 1646. The image was canonically crowned by the authority of Pope St. Pius X on 05 October 1907, the first Marian icon in the Philippines to be given the honor.</span></div>

As such, it piously observes the many different Catholic feasts. One of the Feasts celebrated universally in the Catholic Church is the Feast of the Holy Rosary.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Since there are many shrines in the Philippines bearing the title of Our Lady of the Rosary, with many of them having distinct honors albeit of the same degree, there are different dates that the Feast is observed in the Philippines. Two of such celebrations are the Feasts of Our Lady of the Rosary of Manaoag and Our Lady of the Rosary of La Naval de Manila (second Sunday of October). Both images of Our Lady of the Rosary are under the custody of the Dominicans. The Dominicans have a special affiliation to the Rosary because legend claims that their Founder St. Dominic had a vision wherein the Blessed Virgin gave him the rosary as a tool against heretics.</span><br />
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />The Feast of the Rosary recalls the Battle of Lepanto on 07 October 1571. The victory of the Holy League, a group of Catholic states convened by Pope St. Pius V, a Dominican, against the Ottoman forces prevented the Turkish forces from further expanding into Europe. The Pope attributed the victory to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, particularly by the praying of the rosary. Pope Gregory XIII changed the title of the "Feast of Our Lady of Victory" to "Feast of the Holy Rosary" two years later.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The original ivory image was brought from Spain via Acapulco in the early 17th century to the Philippines by Fr. Juan de San Jacinto who was the first Dominican priest to work in the Manaoag mission. Documents dating back to 1610 claim that a farmer walking home heard a female voice calling him (hence, “Manaoag” from the word taoag—tawag—“to call”). The voice came from an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary holding a rosary in her right hand while carrying the Infant Jesus on the other. The apparition told the farmer that she wanted her church to be built where she appeared. A chapel was built on the spot of the apparition and the town grew around it.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Today, the Philippines remembers the declaration of Martial
Law in 1971 by former President Ferdinand Marcos. As is expected, there are
postage stamps issued by the Philippines during the Martial Law years
glorifying the declaration of Martial Law, and the person of the president and
his first lady. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I was born after the Revolution that toppled the Marcos
regime took place so I am not in a position to say whether the Philippines was
better off with Martial Law or without. I can only rely on literature that is
available.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Marcos loyalists argue that the discipline brought about by
the Martial Law brought an era of prosperity; on the other hand, those who are
against Martial Law argue that the prosperity was only geared towards those who
are favored by the Marcoses [think cronies]. Neither side is wrong; both
discipline and proper accountability is necessary for a government to work
properly. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The citizens should know and follow the laws of the land;
likewise, the officials who are tasked to implement the law should have the
discipline to implement it consistently and indiscriminately—no exemptions should
be made [even on relatives;]; no person of group should be favored or disadvantaged
[such as what happened to political opponents]. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the same way, citizens and government officials should be
made accountable for disregarding the law—penalties should be imposed
consistently regardless of who is to be penalized. Public spending should come
from proper sources [not stolen from the coffers of political opponents or from
illegal activities] and should be funneled to the appropriate expenses [not to
false NGOs] at the correct amounts [market prices or lower].</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are many more nitty-gritty’s concerning Martial Law
and the two arguments—discipline and accountability—are just generalizations. Nevertheless,
these two would definitely improve the Philippines, if effected. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Perhaps, the question that the Filipinos should debate about
is not whether one leader is better than the other. We should look at how the
current system is working and improve on it—look at the root causes of the
problems and cut them; search for potentials for abuses and eliminate them; identify
the opportunities for corruption and eradicate them.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Postal cards are a special type of postcard. These are cards
with an imprinted stamp or indicium signifying the
prepayment of postage that are officially issued by a postal entity.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Postal cards are clearly differentiated from regular
postcards that are cards prepared by private companies and which, more
importantly, do not have prepaid franking. The addition of an adhesive
stamp or metered postage is required to mail them.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Philippines has issued postal cards since the Spanish
occupation. Postal cards issued until 1953 featured a card with preprinted
postage in the obverse, the design of which follows the design of the stamps
issued at that time. The reverse is left blank and may be used for the message.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Sometimes, these postal cards are used as the cover for the
first day of issuance of later Philippine stamp issues.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">From 1954-1994, the Philippines did not issue postal cards. After
four decades without postal cards, the Philippines issued a set of six cards in
January 1995. The Philippines has released six more postal card series since
then. Cards issued since 1995 feature a pictorial design and a preprinted stamp
on the opposite side featuring the same pictorial design.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Featured here are some of the Prepaid Postal Cards issued in
2003 to promote the Wealth of Wonder (WOW) Tourist Campaign. There were
eight designs in the set and was sold at Php 15 apiece. The postal card is valid
for mailing to any address in the world.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Some of the designs include:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After the Philippine postcrossing meet-up last 06 July 2013,
some postcrossers went to a local bookstore where it was rumored that older postcards
were still sold. The trip took longer than expected—a bit more than two hours—because
the cards in the store were, indeed retro.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">[The <a href="http://forum.postcrossing.com/viewthread.php?tid=53827">Postcrossing forum on Vintage Card RR</a> classify old cards as follows: </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Vintage- cards older than 1960<br />
Retro- cards between 1960- 1990<br />
Vintage reprints- modern cards (1991 or newer) that
look vintage but are not.]</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The bigger surprise was that there were 3D cards still sold
at the bookstore! Modern 3D postcards sold in the malls cost about Php 125 each;
the price that we got the retro postcards for was a bargain compared to the
prevailing market value. There were six 3D card designs left with only a few
copies of each of the designs. After a bit of research, I found out that there
were more than a dozen 3D card designs originally released by the bookstore; it’s
a pity that we were not able to find copies of the other designs.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The first two 3D postcards featured the following designs:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Last July 06, Philippine postcrossers had another meet-up.
This time, it was held at SM North EDSA in Quezon City. Thirteen postcrossers
were present.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It was an opportunity for postcrossers in the Philippines to
meet each other, share/swap items, and to sign meet-up cards. Many of those who
attended brought with them cards and other philatelic materials from their
collection to show to the group.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There were familiar faces, and there were first-time participants
who went. It was nice meeting them for the first time. Some Filipino
postcrossers who cannot attend even provided items to give away to everyone. How
we wish that they were there with us, too.</span></div>

It is bordered on the north by South Sudan, on the east by Kenya, on the south by Tanzania, on the southwest by Rwanda, and on the west by the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The southern part of the country includes a substantial portion of Lake Victoria, shared with Kenya and Tanzania. Beginning in the late 1800s, the area was ruled as a colony by the British. Uganda gained independence from Britain on 09 October 1962.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Uganda is Africa condensed. Uganda is where the <a href="http://www.visituganda.com/about-uganda/">East African Savannah meets the West African jungle</a>. Uganda is home to the highest mountain range in Africa, the Mountains of the Moon in the Rwenzori National Park. It is the source of the mighty Nile. It has the highest concentration of primates on earth, including the majestic mountain gorilla, one of the rarest animals on the planet. </span><div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">African elephants are the elephants of the genus <a href="http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/accounts/Loxodonta_africana/">Loxodonta</a> (Greek for 'oblique-sided tooth'), consisting of two extant species: the African bush elephant and the smaller African forest elephant. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The African bush elephant (<i>Loxodonta africana</i>) is the larger of the two species of African elephant. Both it and the African forest elephant have usually been classified as a single species, known simply as the African elephant, but recent evidence has seen the forest elephant classified as a distinct species. Some authorities still consider the currently available evidence as insufficient for splitting African elephants into two species.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">African elephants are the heaviest land animal, and the
second tallest in the Animal Kingdom. They have enormous ears, each measuring
about four feet (120-125 cm) across. They have a unique nose that is simply a
long, boneless trunk extending from the upper lip. The trunk has two opposing
extensions at its end, different from the Asian elephant, which only has one. The
trunk is used for communication and handling objects and food. Their incisor
teeth develop into tusks about 8 feet long and grow throughout an elephant's
lifetime. They occur in both males and females and are used in fights and for
marking, feeding, and digging. The only other teeth they have are four molars
which are replaced three times throughout their lives after the previous set
wears down.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Poaching for ivory and meat has traditionally been the major cause of the species' decline. Although illegal hunting remains a significant factor in some areas, particularly in Central Africa, currently the most important perceived threat is the loss and fragmentation of habitat caused by ongoing human population expansion and rapid land conversion. It was considered as an "endangered" species by the IUCN prior to 2004 and is now <a href="http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/12392/0">classified as "vulnerable."</a></span></div>

cat to possess the ability to rotate its hind legs 180° enabling it to run head
first down trees like squirrels. It can also hang from a branch by one hind

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The <a href="http://bigcatrescue.org/ocelot-facts/">Ocelot (<i>Leopardus pardalis</i>)</a>, also known as the dwarf
leopard, is a wild cat distributed extensively over South
America. The ocelot is similar in appearance to a domestic cat. Its fur resembles
that of a clouded leopard or jaguar and was once regarded
as particularly valuable. As a result, hundreds of thousands of ocelots were
once killed for their fur. This cat is probably the best known of the South
American cats because of its pelt being the mainstay of the fur trade, and for
the fact that it was frequently kept as a pet. Due the fact that Ocelots are
high strung, unpredictable, comedic little cats, humans de-fanged, de-clawed,
de-scented, and altered these cats in order to make them conform to the “pet”
industry.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Niuafo'ou is the northernmost island in the Kingdom of Tonga (a sovereign state and an archipelago comprising 176 islands scattered over 700,000 square kilometres of the southern Pacific Ocean). This volcanic island is about 3.5 miles long and 3 miles wide and has two lakes at its caldera, the larger of which is 4 kilometers wide and 84 meters deep. The volcano last erupted in 1946 and settlers have returned to the island by 1958. By 2006, there are less than 700 inhabitants in the island.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It is known as the Tin Can Island because mail to and from the island was delivered and picked up by strong swimmers who would retrieve packages, "sealed up in a biscuit tin" and thrown overboard from passing ships. When the island had its own airport built in 1983, mail delivered via Tin Can stopped, although the Tongan government commemorated this tradition by issuing Niuafoʻou stamps.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The <a href="http://wwf.org/">Worldwide Fund for Nature</a> (WWF, formerly
named the World Wildlife Fund, which remains its official name in Canada and
the United States) is the world's <a href="http://wwf.org.ph/wwf3/wwa/history">largest and most experienced conservation organization</a>, operating in over 100 countries through the support
of nearly five million people worldwide.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Since it was founded in 1961, WWF has become one of the
world's largest and most effective independent organizations dedicated to the
conservation of nature. It has reached this status through a constant record of
conservation achievements.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="100" src="http://assets.wwf.org.uk/img/panda_logos_468_13197.jpg" width="400" /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Its initials and famous Panda logo have become a powerful
rallying point for everyone who cares about the future of the planet and wants
to help shape it in a positive way. Among others, WWF's work consisted mainly
of protecting animals and plants threatened with extinction not just because
they are beautiful and rare, but because they are part of a complex chain in
which the disappearance of even a single species can have far-reaching consequences.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In 1983, WWF
International, whose Headquarters is in Gland, Switzerland, concluded a
contract with the Swiss stamp agent, Groth AG, for the worldwide issuance of
WWF stamps. Since then, Groth AG negotiates with postal administrations to
produce stamps with the WWF logo.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://assets.panda.org/downloads/goth_press_release_jan_03.doc%E2%80%8E">According to Hans Groth of Groth AG</a>: "It is important that only endangered animals of
the issuing country are depicted on stamps. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We allow only 16 to 18 countries to issue
stamps with the WWF Panda logo each year to avoid too many issues. And we
encourage moderate face-values to avoid speculation."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The <a href="http://www.wwfstamp.com/">WWF Conservation Stamp collection</a> is the largest
thematic collection in the world with over one billion stamps printed by
the April 2013. Over 2,000 different postally valid WWF stamps have been issued
since 1983 in 220 countries. All WWF stamps may be used for <a href="http://assets.panda.org/downloads/goth_press_release_jan_03.doc">actual postage and must be available from their respective postal administration</a>. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://worldwildlife.org/press-releases/us-postal-service-s-new-save-vanishing-species-stamp-on-sale-today">WWF Senior Vice President of Conservation Strategy and Science Ginette Hemley</a> says that the WWF Stamp Collection is “an easy way for
individuals to use their purchasing power to help save vanishing species.” She
adds that anyone can play a direct role in protecting some of our most iconic
and endangered wildlife by purchasing these stamps.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The sale of stamps has become an important source of income
for funding WWF's conservation activities, generating more than $18.5 million
since its inception. Proceeds from the sale of the stamps have helped fund
a range of activities — from the conservation of endangered species to helping
forest and coastal-dwelling communities improve their standards of living
through sustainable use of their natural resources.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the words of <a href="http://assets.panda.org/downloads/goth_press_release_jan_03.doc%E2%80%8E">Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and WWF International President Emeritus</a>, “The WWF Conservation Stamp Collection offers
philatelists and people concerned about the state of the natural environment a
wonderful opportunity to enhance their stamp collection, while at the same time
contributing directly to the conservation of nature.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am now officially on my Christmas break and I'll be writing about Christmas-themed philatelic materials as Christmas approaches. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For Christmas 1993, the Royal Mail issue a set of se-tenant strips of five stamps that featured Stained Glass windows that depict scenes from the Nativity. The stamps came in full sheets of 100. They were made available to the public on 10 November 1993. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The cancellation depicts the Madonna and Child.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here is the transcription of the text found on the philatelic insert:</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Stained glass windows have their own transcendental beauty.
Our churches and cathedrals house a rich legacy of stained glass and a
distinctive contribution to that tradition was made in the present century by
the artists of the Arts and Crafts Movement. The exceptional quality of their
work, a marriage of impeccable craftsmanship and artistic vision, yielded “a
rich heritage for the world, set alight by the daily miracle of the dawn.”
There could be no more fitting way of celebrating Christmas than by using
characteristic details of their designs, from churches around the country, to
illustrate the story of the Nativity.</span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I woke up to the sound of rain this
morning; it was not a gentle pitter-patter but a thunderstorm. An as expected,
the morning news was filled with reports of floods and suspension of classes
throughout the metropolis.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Torrential rains induce a certain
degree of trauma to Marikeños especially with the floods brought about by
Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana) in 2009 and the Habagat (monsoon) just last month.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It is interesting to note that philatelic materials were used to raise funds for victims of natural disasters in the past. In November 1943, a strong typhoon hit the Philippines which caused massive flooding in the streets. [I tried to research for more information about the flood, but I still have not found substantial information. I guess censorship was so prevalent during the Japanese Occupation that information about the storm hardly leaked out.]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">A set of semi-postal
stamps was issued to raise funds for the victims. A semi-postal
stamp is a </span>postage stamp<span style="background: white;"> issued to raise money for a particular purpose. These stamps are
sold at a higher value than the prevailing postal rates; the excess amount
charged is allocated for the purpose for which the stamps were issued. These
are usually issued for charitable purpose such as TB prevention, and in aid of
victims of war or natural calamities, hence its other nickname, charity stamps.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The
stamps were issued on 08 December 1943 during the second anniversary of the
Great East Asia War. The stamps were definitives surcharged with
"BAHA 1943." These were priced 12 + 21 c, 20 + 36 c, and 21 + 40 c.
Yup, the "+21," "+36," and "+40" cents were
allocated for the flood victims. Imagine: the donation was higher than the
actual cost of mailing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">The original First Day Cover
cachet commemorates the Great East Asia War anniversary instead of the flood
relief campaign. </span>According to philatelist Linda Stanfield<b>, </b>an FDC
cachet depicting the flood relief campaign was issued on December 22 due to
public clamor, especially among the philatelic community. The cover
featuring the flood relief effort is referred to as the Second First Day Cover
of this issue.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I guess philately used to be so popular back then that they were able to accumulate a sizable amount. I wonder if this will still work today given the current population of Filipino philatelists and the situation of the Philippines Postal Corporation.</span></div>
