To mark National Children’s Day on January 11, 2025, Thailand Post unveiled two commemorative stamps in tribute to the Little Prince at a ceremony at the Iconsiam Center in Bangkok.
Chaired by the French Ambassador to Thailand and Nicolas Delsalle-Mun, General Delegate of the Antoine de Saint Exupéry Youth Foundation, the event was attended by Pilantanee Suwanbubbha, Director of Thailand Post, Jean-Marc Probst, founder of the Foundation for The Little Prince, and Lise Talbot Barre, Counsellor for Cooperation and Cultural Action.
Created by artist Euamporn Supharoekchai, who has been designing stamps for Thailand Post for 15 years, the stamps highlight key moments in the tale:
- The first stamp depicts The Little Prince in the middle of the desert, evoking one of the novel’s iconic scenes.
- The second shows the Little Prince in front of a mirror, wearing the traditional Raj Pattern costume, a symbol of elegance and Thai culture.
In addition to these creations, the event marked the launch of several initiatives:
✨The Mogan Local Language Book Launch – Presentation of the Mogan-language edition of The Little Prince, a first in this minority language.
✨ The Little Prince Universe – An Immersive Journey – A press conference announcing an immersive exhibition scheduled from January 20 to May 11, 2025 at the Iconsiam Center, organized by MadMotion and its partners.
