Singapore Post Covid-19 Series II - "A Tribute to Frontline Heroes"

SINGAPORE POST on 6 August 2021 issued their Covid-19 Series II  called "A Tribute to Frontline Heroes". Ten stamps dedicatd to each pf the frontline heroes and and a mini souvenir sheet (shown here) were released.

We live among heroes, the everyday folk in our neighbourhoods who are the vanguard in the war against COVID-19. From healthcare workers to transport workers, from hawkers and cleaners to safe distancing ambassadors, migrant workers to teachers and volunteers; they fight an enemy unseen while fighting their own anxieties yet hold their posts with responsibility and diligence.

Overcoming fear, fatigue and discomfort, in the face of risks and restrictions, these heroes go about their work with dignity. They inspire confidence for Singapore as they bring a semblance of normality to the country in the strangest of times: what a mighty force — physical, psychological, economic — they are.
