Four-nation stamp exhibition (2015) was held in Dataran Pahlawan mega mall, Melaka city, Malaysia from 4 to 6 December. This annual event is formerly known as Tri-nation stamp exhibition before Indonesia join in 2014. The tri-nation includes Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia. This year, Malaysia Post and Philatelic Society of Malaysia joinly host the exhibition in Melaka town.
To commemorate this event, Malaysia Pos issued the set of stamps "Traditional attires" of four nations, and the miniature sheet. The stamps featured the traditional attires for male and female of individual country and its famous architectural place. Each stamp is valued at 60 sen and the miniature sheet is worth 3 Ringgit.
I have exhibited my three frames exhibit named "Burma's commemorative covers with special cachet (1937 - 1947)" under the postal history category. And this exhibit hit 69 points and won the Silver Bronze award. It is the good start for me to improve the exhibit.

As its name implies, the exhibit shows the covers with cachet in the specific period of 1937-1947, the British Burma period. It includes study of historical events covers and philatelic covers, postmarks on it, cachet creators and varieties of cachet designs made by individuals. The material in this exhibit includes Last Day Covers, First Day Covers, Commemorative Covers and Newspaper Wrappers. Well known philatelists, at that time, made their own private covers for stamps issues, philatelic events and historical events. The exhibit includes 1 stamp, 63 covers and 4 newspaper wrappers.
