Hong Kong 2018 Inclusive Communication Stamps and minisheet
Issue date 7 June 2018
To promote inclusive communication, Hongkong Post issues a set of six special stamps and a stamp sheetlet on that theme. The stamps display six common words or phrases in Chinese and English, namely, “Friend” ($2), “Good morning” ($2.60), “Hello” ($3.40), “Keep it up” ($3.70), “Love” ($4.90) and “Thank you” ($5). On the left side of each stamp, there is a simple and adorable comic character expressing the word or phrase in sign language. In addition, the Braille dots for the word or phrase are printed in textured Braille ink on the surface of the stamp. This combination of sign language and Braille in the design thus allows the messages of the stamps to be conveyed to people with different needs. The accompanying stamp sheetlet is printed with lithography plus a lenticular effect.
