As promised, I am going to show stamps of ‘extinct’ countries. But to make it more interesting, I will draft my post in the form of quiz questions. Those of you who read my blog regularly will know that I like to test the younger Singaporeans about history and heritage-related stuff. I usually ask those above 40 not to participate – in order not to embarrass them. Haha.

So here goes …

Question No. 1
What was Singapore’s National Day - before 1963 that is?

Question No. 2
What was Sabah known as before they joined Malaysia?

Question No. 3
Vietnam was a colony of which European power before independence?

Question No. 4
What was the name of this country? What is it known as now?

I think I’d better stop here. Otherwise, you guys will not feel the need to visit the Singapore Philatelic Museum anymore. Then the NHB people may decide to label me ‘enemy’ instead of friend of Yesterday.sg.
