Culture is an essential component in fashioning our nation for the future.
Today, I have a very beautiful aerogramme from Malaysia on the theme 'Cultural Dances' which depicts pictures of 5 different Dances viz. Malay Dance, Chinese Dance, Ngajat Dance, Sumazau Dance and Indian Dance. The scan of this aerogramme was sent by our most distinguished reader and contributor Mr. Shrikant Parikh from Ahmedabad.Many stamps have been issued with Indian theme by different countries, but Postal stationery is rare to see especially depicting an Indian dance!! Have a look of the multi-racial culture on a single aerogramme ! This proves that 'Philatelic Items' are one of the finest & best way to promote our culture and message round the globe !
The Performing Arts is colourful way in which Malaysians of various races and cultures preserve their rich heritage. The richness and unity prevailing in multracial Malaysia is portrayed to the world with touches of Malay, Chinese and Indian Culture as well as varied cultures evident among the ethnic groups of Sabah and Sarwak.
