Vietnam : 2012 London Olympic Stamps & FDC



Vietnam Post has issued a set of four stamps commemorating the London 2012 Olympic Games and showcasing four of the sports in which the country will be competing. Each of the stamps features a drawing of a different sport: weightlifting (2000d), fencing (3500d), gymnastics (8500d) and martial arts (12,000d). This summer, Vietnam will be represented by athletes competing across ten different events including taekwondo, swimming, athletics and badminton.
Vietnam has competed at the Olympic Games since 1952 and has so far won thirteen medals, although Vietnam has yet to achieve Gold at the Games.
