Zodiac Series - Dragon<br />

DATE OF ISSUE:<br />

The Chinese calendar is based on five cycles of 12<br />

years each, with each cycle tempered by one of the<br />

five Chinese elements - Metal, Wood, Water, Fire<br />

and Earth. Each year features one of 12 animal<br />

signs, and the year 2012 is that of the Water Dragon.<br />

The year 2012 marks the reign of the legendary<br />

Dragon and the fifth animal in the Zodiac series on<br />

the Chinese calendar. This intelligent, flamboyant<br />

and magnanimous animal is depicted on this set<br />

of stamps (1st Local, 65¢ and $1.10).<br />

The Lunar New Year for 2012 starts on 23 January 2012.<br />
