Singapore's National Flag was adopted on this day (3-dec) in 1959...
The flag holds profound symbolism of Singapore... The flag's primary colors, red and white, represent universal brotherhood and purity... The white crescent moon, a symbol of a young nation's rising aspirations, graces the top left corner... Accompanying it are five stars, echoing ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice, and equality...
The meticulously designed national flag of Singapore was commemorated by the Singapore Postal Administration with the release of a 4-cent postage stamp in 1960...
This stamp can be collected under the following themes:
(a) Flags on Stamps...
(b) Crescent moon / Stars on Stamps...
