Singapore and Oman released a joint issue stamp on 21st February 2025. I recently came across the Singapore versio of this stamp which is definitely a magnificent piece of miniature art.
When Two Worlds Meet on a Stamp
Singapore and Oman officially shook hands in 1985 and the Singapore stamp depicts Muscat Street in Kampong Glam - a vibrant slice of Singapore where Omani influences whisper through the air. Named after Oman’s capital, this street is a living tribute to centuries of trade, cultural swaps, and serious diplomatic relationship.

Singapore-Oman Joint Issue Stamp 2025 - Singapore Version |
The face value of the Singapore stamp is 2 SGD (Singapore Dollar).
Why Muscat Street? A Nod to Shared Roots
Back in the day, Omani traders were the key players in Singapore’s bustling port, leaving behind more than just spices—they wove their culture into the city’s fabric.
The stamp’s design blends Omani motifs with Singapore’s Peranakan flair.
Fun thought: Next time you mail a letter, imagine it flying from Singapore to Oman - just like those old trade ships, but way faster. 🚀
Oman Post has also issued a souvenir sheet to mark the occasion. The denomination of Omani souvenir sheet is 1 Omani Rial.

Ever wondered why myths and legends stick around for centuries?
It’s because they’re way more than just old tales—they’re like a community’s secret superpower! These stories teach us where we come from, what we value, and how to tell right from wrong (think of Aesop’s fables or the epic adventures of heroes like King Arthur). They turn history into something magical, helping us make sense of the world while bonding over shared beliefs. Plus, who doesn’t love a story that makes you go, “Wait, is that really how the mountains were formed?”
But here’s the coolest part: myths and legends aren’t just dusty books - they’re alive. They inspire art, festivals, and even everyday sayings (“Hey, don’t open Pandora’s box!”). When times get tough, these stories remind us, “Hey, heroes faced worse—and still won.” They spark creativity, keep traditions kicking, and let communities say, “This is who we are!” So next time you hear a legend, think of it as a time-traveling life hack, packed with wisdom, wonder, and a whole lot of heart.
On 27 March 2025, Great Britain's Royal Post has issued a set of 8 "1st Class" stamps commemorating different myths and legends of GB.
