Malaysia 2013 World Post Day
Every year on 9th October, we celebrate
World Post Day, the anniversary of the establishment of the Universal Postal
Union ( UPU ) in 1874 in Berne, Swiss.
It was declared World Post Day by the UPU Congress held in Tokyo, Japan
in 1969.
World Post Day is celebrated in more than 150
countries to create a global awareness of the roles and importance of the postal
industry in the everyday lives of people and business, and its contribution to
the social and economic development of its respective countries.
The World Post Day stamp issue features the
official World Post Day 2015 logo. The logo
is a symbolization of two well-known icons of the postal and communication
industry – the traditional letter morphing into a carrier pigeon taking
flight. The letter evokes the
fundamental values and mainstay of the postal industry, whereas the digitized
lines shaped on the bird is a representation of the modernization of post and
postal industry as it continuously evolves to meet the demands of the
modern
world.

Malaysia 2013 World Post Day - Poskad
World Post Day
marks the anniversary of the Universal Postal Union’s establishment in October
9th, 1874 in Bern, Switzerland.
In 1969 during UPU
Congress in Tokyo, Japan, October 9th was declared World Post Day. Since then, World Post Day is celebrated all
over the world to highlight the importance of the postal service.
The Universal Postal Union ( UPU,
French: Union Postale Universelle )
is a specialized agency of the United Nations that coordinates postal policies
among member nations, in addition to the worldwide postal system. The UPU
contains four bodies consisting of the Congress, the Council of Administration
( CA ), the Postal Operations Council ( POC ) and the International Bureau ( IB
). It also oversees two cooperatives including the Telematics and EMS
Cooperatives respectively. Each member agrees to the same terms for conducting
international postal duties. The UPU’s headquarters are located in Bern,
Switzerland.
Prior to the establishment of the UPU,
each country had to prepare a separate postal treaty with other nations it
wished to carry international mail to or from. In some cases, senders would
have to calculate postage for each leg of a journey, and potentially find mail
forwarders in a third country if there was no direct delivery.
To simplify the complexity of this
system, the United States called for an International Postal Congress in 1863.
This led Heinrich von Stephan, Royal Prussian and later German Minister for
Posts, to found the Universal Postal Union. It is currently the third oldest
international organization after the Rhine Commission and the ITU. The UPU was
created in 1874, initially under the name "General Postal Union", as
a result of the Treaty of Bern signed on October 9, 1874. Four years later, the
name was changed to "Universal Postal Union."
After the foundation of the United
Nations, the UPU became a specialized agency of the UN in 1948.
The UPU established that:
1. There should be a uniform flat rate
to mail a letter anywhere in the world
2. Postal authorities should give
equal treatment to foreign and domestic mail
3. Each country should retain all
money it has collected for international postage.
