00:00Good evening Kapuso! I am your Kuya Kim who will give you a trivia behind the trending news.

00:10When did the longest usable postage stamp in the world start here in the Philippines?

00:16That's from PhilPost for our Filipinos. What design can we see here?

00:22The passing river has long been a silent witness to the flow of time.

00:27This is what PhilPost brought to us this Christmas, a postage stamp.

00:31But this is not just a simple stamp.

00:33It is 23.4 cm long.

00:36This is what PhilPost is now showing as the longest usable postage stamp in the world.

00:41In the stamp, you can see the Shambla Church surrounded by the passing river.

00:45The stamp is that the church was built on the river Pasig.

00:48This is a love letter from PhilPost and its artist, Jello Andres.

00:53In the Christmas tradition that is close to the hearts of Filipinos, what else is the Christmas Eve?

00:57This is the longest usable postage stamp as of today.

01:02It is almost the length of an envelope.

01:04The river Pasig is a big part.

01:06That's where the commercial started.

01:08Even the Manila Central Post Office Building,

01:10its base is the letters that came from the river during those days.

01:15We were inspired by an artwork that we posted in 2022.

01:19This is an art series created by Sir Diego.

01:22We combined this art to be a cohesive artwork that will cover the entire river Pasig.

01:33Kuya Kim, why do we attach a postage stamp to the letters we send?

01:39Kuya Kim, what is it?

01:42Putting a postage stamp on our bodies is a way for us to pay for this service.

01:47If we put a postage stamp attached to it, it will prove that we have already paid.

01:51Before the adhesive stamps were invented, we were also able to pay for the postal service.

01:56We use ink and rubber stamps.

01:58This is why we call postage stamps stamps.

02:02The first adhesive stamp was issued on May 1, 1840.

02:06It is called Penny Black.

02:08It was designed by Ronan Hill.

02:10Postage stamps now always have the name of the issuing nation or country,

02:15except for the United Kingdom.

02:17Postage stamps are a combination of meaning and illustration of a person, event, place, or anything that symbolizes the country,

02:24just like the Simbang Gabi in the river Pasig stamp of Philpost.

02:28But did you know that aside from this, there is another iconic stamp that was issued in the country

02:33that also reflects one of our favorite Filipinos?

02:39On April 14, 1934, the first basketball stamp in the world was issued in the Philippines.

02:45To commemorate, the 10th Far Eastern Championship Games were held in Manila that year.

02:50The Far Eastern Championship Games are equivalent to the Asian Games of that time.

02:55The so-called stamp is only worth 16 cents.

02:59Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news,

03:02just post a comment, hashtag Kuya Kim, what is it?

03:05Always remember, the important thing is to know.

03:08I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24.
