brighten the nation’s ultimate sporting event by launching a series of
sport-themed stamps. “For pictures on the stamps, I used surili [the Javan leaf monkey], the
mascot of the 2016 PON. There are a total of 12 sports portrayed by the surili,” said stamp designer Anwar Firdaus
on the sidelines of the launch of the stamp series at the Bandung Post

an Old World monkey native to areas in West Java. Scheduled to be held in
