Stamps from Malaysia - Penang

Penang consists of an island and a coastal strip in the northwest of the Southeast Asian peninsula of Malacca and is now a state of Malaysia. Before World War II, Penang was part of the Straits Settlements and from 1941 to 1945 it was occupied by Japan and occupation stamps were used, mainly residual files of Straits Settlements with Japanese overprint. These can be found at "Japan - Occupation of Malaysia".
After the liberation, Penang came under the British Military Administration of Malacca (see Straits Settlements). In 1948, the Union of Malacca, a British colony consisting of the Crown Colonies of Malacca and Penang and the protectorates and sultanates of Selangor, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Perlis and Terengganu, was transformed into the Federation of Malacca. The 11 states of the Federation of Malacca each issued their own postage stamps. In 1957, the Federation of Malacca became an independent kingdom. From then on, the federation also issued joint postage stamps, although the states continued to issue their own stamps. In 1963, the Federation of Malacca united with the British Crown Colonies of North Borneo, Sarawak and Singapore to form the Kingdom of Malaysia, which issues joint postage stamps. Since 1965, Penang, like the other Malaysian states, has again issued its own postage stamps under the name Pulau Pinang (literally "Penang Island").

Penang bestaat uit een eiland en een kuststrook in het noordwesten van het Zuidoost-Aziatische schiereiland van Malakka en is thans een deelstaat van Maleisië. Voor de 2de Wereldoorlog behoorde Penang tot de Straits Settlements en van 1941 tot 1945 was het bezet door Japan en werden bezettingszegels gebruikt, voornamelijk restbestanden van Straits Settlements met Japanse opdruk. Deze kunt u vinden bij "Japan - Bezetting van Maleisië".

Na de bevrijding viel Penang onder het Brits Militair Bestuur van Malakka (zie Straits Settlements). In 1948 werd de Unie van Malakka, een Britse kolonie bestaande uit de kroonkolonies Malakka en Penang en de protectoraten en sultanaten Selangor, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Perlis en Terengganu, omgevormd tot de Federatie van Malakka. De 11 deelstaten van de Federatie van Malakka gaven elk eigen postzegels uit. In 1957 werd de Federatie van Malakka een onafhankelijk koninkrijk. Vanaf dan gaf de federatie ook gezamenlijke postzegels uit, hoewel de deelstaten nog steeds eigen postzegels bleven uitgeven. In 1963 verenigde de Federatie van Malakka zich met de Britse kroonkolonies Noord-Borneo, Sarawak en Singapore tot het koninkrijk Maleisië, dat gezamenlijke postzegels uitgeeft. Vanaf 1965 geeft Penang onder de naam Pulau Pinang (letterlijk "Eiland Penang") net als de andere Maleise deelstaten opnieuw eigen postzegels uit.
