Sungei Ujong Postage Definitives 1891-1895

SUNGEI UJONG POSTAGE (British colonial era) issued 30 stamps from 1880 until 1895. The jumping tiger shown here was circulated between 1891 until 1894, whereas the tiger-head stamp first appeared in 1895. The other Straits Settlements  carried the same images on their postage stamps; only the caption of the state was different, i.e. Negri Sembilan, Pahang, Penang, Perak,  Selangor. The printing method was typically topographic. 

Sungei Ujong (or Sungai Ujong) was so named after a nearby river of the same name. Sungai Ujong was the old name for Seremban. Before that it was known as "Sening Ujong". While the town was renamed Seremban thereafter, the Sungai Ujong name most prominently persists as a street name for a road adjoining the southern side of town.
