Singapore is a melting pot of cultures, with Chinese, Malay and Indian ethnic groups comprising its socio-cultural fabric. Its event calendar is marked with holidays and celebrations of festivals all year round, ranging from religious celebrations to socio-cultural festivities. This stamp issue by Singapore Post features four major festivals that are observed in Singapore – Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Deepavali and Christmas. Each festival is depicted graphically in two distinct designs (1st Local and 70c each), a celebration of the rich and diverse cultural heritage of the nation's multiracial society.
