　　To welcome the New Year, Chunghwa Post is releasing a set of two stamps and one souvenir sheet entitled “New Year’s Greeting Postage Stamps (Issue of 2018).” The stamps depict the pigs as simple, clear-cut silhouettes set in a background full of color, decorated with plum blossoms and patterns in red and gold indicative of the atmosphere of joy of New Year. They are described as follows: 1. NT$6 stamp: Amid luxuriant plum blossoms, a red pig gives birth to a gold pig as a sign of the unending cycle of life and an expression of continuous good fortune. 2. NT$13 stamp: A piglet nestles within a large pig covered in plum blossoms, giving a taste of the good fortune and joyful spirit of the New Year. 3. NT$15 souvenir sheet: A pair of pigs face each other surrounded by plum blossoms and clouds of good fortune, conveying the idea of a double portion of prosperity and the atmosphere of fortune and good luck. 　　As an added incentive for collectors, a set of “uncut press sheets of New Year’s Greeting Postage Stamps (Issue of 2018)” release of philatelic products will be issued on the same day in a special tube.
