Chinese Stamps Win Prizes at Asia Stamp Expo

The 16th Asia International Stamp Exhibition (AISE) ended Monday, with some 340 stamp series winning various prizes.

"Stamps from China's Eastern Areas and their Original Envelopes" by Kwan William from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, "History of China's Aviation" by Lu You from China's mainland, and "Siam: The Early Years" by Chirakiti from Thailand won the honorary, China and international awards respectively.

The five-day exhibition attracted over 160,000 visitors, and created a sales volume of nearly 100 million yuan (about US$12.05 million) and an auction volume of 1.21 million yuan.

The 17th AISE will be held in Hong Kong next year, a spokesman for the Inter-Asia Philatelic Federation (FIAP) said at the award-giving ceremony.
