Objective

The theme of PHILANIPPON 2011 is “Stamps Link the World”. It will be a rare opportunity for the first time in 10 years in Japan to promote philatelic culture in Japan, publicize Japanese stamps overseas, and nurture cultural exchange and international friendship through stamp collection.

With tie-ups with various companies, we hope both many collectors and ordinary citizens gather, making it a good opportunity to find significance of philatelic culture and create a bright future.
