PHILANIPPON 2011 OVERVIEW

Exhibition Title
Japan World Stamp Exhibition 2011 Abbreviated name: PHILANIPPON 2011
Objective
World Stamp Exhibitions are held all over the world every year with aims to develop philately, opening world-renowned stamp collections to the public, and promote stamps of the member countries of the Fédération Internationale de Philatélie (FIP). In Japan, World Stamp Exhibition takes place once every ten years, held in 1971, 1981, 1991, and 2001, and will also be held in 2011.
 
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.
