Pos Malaysia Centenary of Johor Causeway

POS MALAYSIA on 28 June 2024 launched a joint set of First Day Cover stamps to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Johor Causeway, commonly referred to as the “Causeway” or “Tambak Johor.” Throughout its history, the Causeway has been a cornerstone of Malaysia-Singapore relations, deeply embedded in the geographical and geoeconomic fabric of both nations.

Over time, the Causeway has evolved into an internationally recognised border and continues to reign as the busiest and most iconic motorway bridge connecting the two countries, accommodating over 100 million users annually today.

The commemorative stamps featured illustrations of past and present views of the Johor Causeway from Malaysia and Singapore and paid homage to the Johor Causeway’s enduring legacy as a symbol of connectivity and economic cooperation, embodying the shared history and prosperity of Malaysia and Singapore. Postmark cancellation originated from Johor Bahru.
