In 2025, it has been 100 years since Dr. Sun Yat-sen passed away. In commemoration and as a gesture of respect and remembrance, Chunghwa Post has released a souvenir sheet containing two stamps with denominations of NT$12 and NT$35. Dr. Sun Yat-sen, who is the founding father of the Republic of China, and the National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Taipei are the main design elements of the stamps. To symbolize the idea of “flourishing prosperity,” the sheet features bold lines and vibrant colors depicting abundant fruits, lotus flowers, a pair of Taiwan Blue Magpies and Formosan Black Bears. Descriptions of the stamps follow:1. NT$12 stamp: National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, which is located in Taipei’s Xinyi district, was established to commemorate the national founding father and to promote his thoughts and teachings. Architect Wang Da-hung designed the building in a modern style but with flying eaves inspired by Tang dynasty architecture. The building contains an internationally renowned performance hall and frequently hosts academic, artistic, and cultural events. It is one of the most versatile venues for art and culture in the nation.2. NT$35 stamp: Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the Republic of China, was originally named Sun Wen. His courtesy name was Zaizhi and his sobriquet was Yat-sen, and he was also known as Zhongshan during the revolutionary period. As a youth, he enrolled in the College of Medicine for Chinese in Hong Kong and began advocating for revolution. After 10 failed uprisings, the 1911 Revolution finally succeeded in overthrowing the Qing dynasty and in establishing the first democratic republic in Asia. He authored the Three Principles of the People and the Five-Power Constitution as the blueprint for nation-building, thus making significant contributions to the country and its people. He passed away on March 12, 1925, and in 1940 the ROC National Government officially honored him as the “Founding Father of the Republic of China.”To purchase postage stamps, please go directly to the post office branches, Postal Museum or order on line at https://stamp.post.gov.tw.
