FDCs to mark the 125th anniversary of Postal History of Kedah, a state in northwest Malaysia. I was in Malaysia for winter holidays, so I had the time to send the FDCs to my address in Canada. At the same time, Khor Kok Keong also sent the FDCs to me! So now I have four FDCs from this issue. Here is the first FDC from <a href="http://kkkhor.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Khor Kok Keong</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="4474" data-permalink="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/681-fdc-from-malaysia/2013-03-25-malaysia-1/" data-orig-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg" data-orig-size="1496,864" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"HP oj6300","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="2013-03-25 Malaysia (1)" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=538" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4474" alt="2013-03-25 Malaysia (1)" src="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=538&h=310" width="538" height="310" srcset="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=538&h=310 538w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=1074&h=620 1074w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=150&h=87 150w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=300&h=173 300w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=768&h=444 768w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-1.jpg?w=1024&h=591 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px" /></a></p> <p>This is the first version of the FDC, where the old General Post Office in Alor Setar, the state capital of Kedah. On this FDC Khor affixed one souvenir sheet that features an old postcard posted from Kedah to Penang. The postmark date on the postcard is 27 October 1887, and during that time Kedah was a province under the Kingdom of Thailand so that explains why the postcard and the stamp were of Siam. I think the stamp on the postcard shows a portrait of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chulalongkorn" target="_blank">King Chulalongkorn</a>, the 5th monarch from the Royal House of Chakri. Khor’s FDC was cancelled in Ipoh, Perak.</p> <p><a href="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="4475" data-permalink="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/681-fdc-from-malaysia/2013-03-25-malaysia-5/" data-orig-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg" data-orig-size="1405,2322" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"HP oj6300","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="2013-03-25 Malaysia (5)" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=182" data-large-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=538" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4475" alt="2013-03-25 Malaysia (5)" src="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=538&h=889" width="538" height="889" srcset="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=538&h=889 538w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=1076&h=1778 1076w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=91&h=150 91w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=182&h=300 182w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=768&h=1269 768w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-5.jpg?w=620&h=1024 620w" sizes="(max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px" /></a></p> <p>This is the pamphlet that contains information about the issue.</p> <p><a href="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="4476" data-permalink="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/681-fdc-from-malaysia/2013-03-25-malaysia-6/" data-orig-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg" data-orig-size="1412,2325" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"HP oj6300","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="2013-03-25 Malaysia (6)" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=182" data-large-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=538" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4476" alt="2013-03-25 Malaysia (6)" src="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=538&h=885" width="538" height="885" srcset="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=538&h=885 538w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=1076&h=1770 1076w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=91&h=150 91w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=182&h=300 182w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=768&h=1265 768w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/2013-03-25-malaysia-6.jpg?w=622&h=1024 622w" sizes="(max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px" /></a></p> <p>This is the back of the pamphlet.

The island of Langkawi is full with eagles. During my visit to Langkawi in summer 2009, I joined two cruises where we stopped for eagle feeding. The boatmen threw some meat into the sea and then we waited patiently in our boat for the eagles to come.</p> <p><a href="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="3959" data-permalink="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/2012/12/01/578-postcard-from-langkawi-malaysia/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b/" data-orig-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg" data-orig-size="1186,827" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="2012-12-01 Langkawi 1b" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=538" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3959" alt="2012-12-01 Langkawi 1b" src="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=538&h=375" height="375" width="538" srcset="https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=538&h=375 538w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=1076&h=750 1076w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=150&h=105 150w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=300&h=209 300w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=768&h=536 768w, https://lovelymaryam.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/2012-12-01-langkawi-1b.jpg?w=1024&h=714 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px" /></a></p> <p>At the back, Dani affixed one definitive bird stamp and one commemorative spider stamp.
