Phnom Penh, Cambodia — Synopsis Gallery, in collaboration with Stamp Library KH and powered by STOR-Y Design Hub, proudly presents “Postage Stamps, Featuring Cambodia – Part 2,” a tribute to the Kingdom’s past, present, and aspirations for peace, as seen through the remarkable medium of postage stamps.

This curated exhibition brings together 43 rare stamps and philatelic items to narrate Cambodia’s history—from the days of ancient heritage and colonial entanglement to the nation’s fight for independence and its ongoing emergence as a beacon of resilience and identity.

Each postage stamp in the exhibition tells a story. From Cambodia’s earliest issues dating back to 1864, to stamps symbolizing pivotal moments such as the Sangkum Reastr Niyum era, independence in 1953, the UNTAC peacebuilding mission, and beyond—these items are not mere collectibles but national storytellers.

By curating and displaying these historical stamps, the exhibition aims to inspire national pride, educate future generations, preserve and share postal heritage, and connect Cambodia’s story to the world. Through the timeless beauty of stamps, the exhibition brings history to life—ensuring Cambodia’s past is remembered, celebrated, and appreciated for years to come.

The Collector: Fat Jase
Cambodian philatelist Fat Jase, the man behind the Stamp Library KH, brings a personal passion to this national narrative. Since beginning his journey in 2012, Jase has built a collection of over 50,000 stamps. His deep appreciation for the stories hidden in each stamp makes him not just a collector—but a cultural custodian.
“For me, stamp collecting is not just a hobby. It’s a way to preserve history, celebrate culture, and connect with people across generations & borders.” – Fat Jase

Curated by Johann
Malaysian curator Johann, with a background in branding and marketing, brings an international eye to the exhibition. His work bridges the artistic, cultural, and strategic—crafting exhibitions that are immersive, authentic, and globally resonant.

VIP Host: Shasne Su A prominent figure in Cambodia’s media and fashion industry, Shasne Su will serve as the face of the event’s public relations. As the PR Manager at MSCENTS Cambodia and Editor at Prestige Cambodia, her network and following of over 115,000 social media users provide strong promotional reach and cultural relevance.

Three Eras of Cambodian Philately

  1. The World’s First Postage Stamp (1840): This section places Cambodia’s philatelic history in a global context, beginning with the invention of the Penny Black, the world’s first postage stamp.
  2. French Colonial Period (1863–1953): Showcasing Cambodia’s place in French Indochina, this period features stamps reflecting colonial influence, national landmarks, and Khmer identity under French rule.
  3. Independence to Present (1953–Now): Spanning Cambodia’s independence, internal conflicts, and cultural revival, these stamps reflect the nation’s journey through the Khmer Republic, the Khmer Rouge era, UNTAC, and into modern-day resilience and renewal.
