APRIL 2026
Greetings from the Asian-Pacific Postal Union!
As we move into April, I am pleased to share that we recently marked the 64th Foundation Day of APPU at the Bureau a meaningful occasion that offered both a moment of reflection and a renewed sense of purpose for the year ahead.
I would also like to extend my warmest wishes on the occasion of Songkran, the traditional Thai New Year. Celebrated across Thailand and many parts of Southeast Asia, this festive period reminds us of renewal, connection, and happiness. Being based in Bangkok, APPU continues to benefit from the rich cultural environment of our host country, which reflects the diversity and shared traditions of our region. I wish all our members and colleagues a joyful and peaceful New Year. More
