World Cup 2006 .. stamps.

As you all know, Germany World Cup 2006 is coming to an end. Host country, Germany is out and now we’re left with France and Italy. Both are not my favourite teams. My favourite teams, Brazil, Germany, England and Japan/Korea are all long gone. I don’t think I will stay up till 2AM on Monday just to watch the finals. Mad ah no need to work ah?

Anyway, I received a letter from an associate in Indonesia. On their envelope. it has stamps commemorating the Germany World Cup 2006! Since when Indonesia has something to do with the world cup?

So I did further search on the net to see what other countries issued stamps commemorating the Germany World Cup 2006.

Like Indonesia, countries like China, Belgium and Qatar issued stamps commemorating the world cup although they are not finalist for the World Cup 2006.
