*************************************************
Hongkong Post today (November 28) announced that a "Tamar Development Project" stamp sheetlet will be released for sale together with associated philatelic products on December 15.
The Tamar Development Project covered the design and construction of the new Chief Executive's Office, Central Government Offices, the Legislative Council Complex, extensive open space and two elevated walkways. Hongkong Post is issuing the stamp sheetlet to commemorate this important landmark project.
Based on four concepts - "Door Always Open", "Land Always Green",
"Sky Will Be Blue" and "People Will Be Connected" - the architecture of the buildings reflects the Government's notion of governance and the people's vision of the city.
Official First Day Covers will be put on sale for $1 each at all post offices from December 1. The stamp sheetlet and associated philatelic products will be displayed at the General Post Office, Tsim Sha Tsui Post Office, Tsuen Wan Post Office and Sha Tin Central Post Office from the same day. Advance orders for servicing self-provided covers will be accepted at all philatelic offices from December 1 to 7.
