Macao to Issue New Set of Stamps
The Macao Postal Services will issue a set of new stamps on July 24 to commemorate the 160th anniversary of the birth of Zheng Guanying, a reformist, literal man and philanthropist who received his childhood education in Macao.

The set includes four varieties of stamps which bear the face value ranging from 1 pataca (12.5 US cents) to 3.5 patacas (43.75 cents) and, a total of 500,000 sets will be issued, Carlos Roldao Lopes, director of the postal services, said at a press conference Monday.

Other postal products such as souvenir sheet, first-day cover and introduction paper will also be made available.

This will be the seventh among a dozen sets of stamps the postal services plans to issue for the year 2002.
