The Postmaster General, Mr Robert Footman, today (Thursday) announced that the issue of special stamps on Hong Kong mountains, which was scheduled on September 11, will be postponed to September 24.
"I apologise to our customers for any inconvenience this may cause them. It is most unfortunate that the stamps cannot be delivered on time as originally planned, hence the revision of the issue date.
"We will make available corrigendum sheets for amending the date of issue printed on first day covers at all post offices on September 24," said Mr Footman.
