1. The Ministry of Law (MinLaw) and the Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) launched a special commemorative stamp set titled ‘Justice for All: Upholding the Rule of Law in Singapore’.
2. The stamp series marks SGLaw200, the bicentennial of Singapore’s modern legal and judicial system, since the enactment of the Second Charter of Justice in 1826. The issue celebrates the foundational role that the Rule of Law plays in underpinning Singapore’s economic progress, social harmony, law and order, and international standing and more. The issue also looks ahead to the future, and how the Rule of Law can evolve and be strengthened to take Singapore forward.
3. Designed by local designer Andy Koh, the four-stamp set illustrates the core pillars of Singapore’s contemporary legal ecosystem. The designs highlight the country’s strong legal institutions, people-centred access to justice, and robust alternative dispute resolution options, while looking ahead to a technology-driven, future-ready legal system that retains its human heart.
Stamp Designs
a) Pillars of Justice (1st Local): Set against the backdrop of the Supreme Court, State Courts, and Family Justice Courts, this stamp highlights the integral roles of Singapore’s Judiciary, Public Prosecutor, and the broader legal profession. It signifies their commitment to uphold the Rule of Law, ensuring equality, and safeguarding the rights of all.
b) Access to Justice (85₵): Featuring the Legal Aid Bureau and the Public Defender’s Office, this stamp highlights the dedicated work of public officers and volunteer lawyers who provide civil and criminal legal aid to financially needy Singaporeans. It signifies the Government’s commitment to ensure that the less privileged can have access to justice.
c) Alternative Dispute Resolution (90₵): Showcasing the breadth of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services available in Singapore, this stamp juxtaposes two complementary aspects of our vibrant ADR ecosystem. It features Maxwell Chambers—Singapore’s premier hub for international arbitration and mediation—alongside volunteer community mediators who facilitate conversations to resolve disputes amicably and preserve social harmony.
d) Future of Justice ($2): Highlighting the intersection of technology and the law, this stamp reflects Singapore’s commitment to innovation.
