Hong Kong Giant Pandas FDCs
Which stamp do you like the most from this set? I like the $2.40 one very much. This is the typical style of Panda, lazy and lovely.

Japan The 60th Anniversary of Enforcement of the Local Autonomy Law FDC
Pity! If my friend added 100 yen definitive stamp on this FDC, it could be sent by registered mail.

Japan Prefectural Flowers FDC (1st Series)
Same flower has 2 different denominations, do you think it is necessary?

Lithuania 1000th Anniversary of Lithuania FDC
I must recognize this is a very great series to review the Lithuania History. But the face value of this sheet is too too too expensive. 9.90 Lt is enough to send an air registered mail from Lithuania to China. It totally has 18 Lt on this sheet. Because the Lithuania Post doesn't permit to use the stamp to pay the A.R. charge. I waste 8.1 Lt postage.

Russia Churches FDC (Romania - Russia Joint Issue)
Romania and Russia, two "R" initial letter countries. It's interesting. If I don't make mistake, both churches are listed in UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Algeria Works of Art From The National Meusums (Baya) FDC
Absolutely! Baya Mahieddine was a self-taught talent, Pablo Picasso had met her when she was only 17 years old. Who could deserve it??

Japan The 50th Anniversary of Indonesia – Japan Diplomatic Relationship FDC
This is a Joint Issue, but Indonesia Post and Japan Post did issue this set on same date. I don't know whether this is the first time in Joint Issue history. But I'm sure It had happened and will happen in China. China - India Joint Issue (India delays); China - Great Britain (China delays).

Czech Republic Beijing 2008 Olympic Games FDC
If I don't make the mistake, the prototype of the stamp and FDC's illustration is Vra Pospíšilová-Cechlová. I think she is not the most famous athlete in Czech Republic, Czech Post uses her figure because the Discus Throw is the symbol of the Olympic Games. Am I right?

Japan-Brazil Friendship Year FDC
Brazil Post (Empresa Brasileira de Correios e Telégrafos) issued the same theme set on same day, but their designs are quite difference besides the logo of Japan-Brazil Friendship Year.

Hong Kong Jellyfish Self-Drawing FDC
This is my first self-drawing FDC, my Hong Kong friend is good at drawing. He often makes self-drawing FDC for his own collection. Perhaps he wrote the wrong address this time, and this FDC was sent to me. I'm so lucky! lol

Hong Kong Jellyfish Booklet Sheets FDCs
Because only the regular mail could be cancelled by special cancellation. My friend sent all of the booklet sheets FDCs by regular mail. The third FDC was sent by priority mail, but this priority doesn't deserve the name, it was slower than the air registered mail and air regular mail.

Indonesia Environmental Care 2008 Minisheet FDC
This is a very good stuff for Bicycle topical and thematic collectors. Not only can the bicycle help us to exercise our body, but only can protect our environment.

Slovakia Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games FDC
This is the first real posted FDC of 2008 Paralympic Games in my collection. I know many countries had issued or will issue 2008 Olympic Games stamps, but only few country had issued or will issue 2008 Paralympic Games stamps.
