BANGKOK, 2 July 2015 - ASEAN Member States wrapped up their ASEAN Community commemorative stamps using a common design to reflect the "oneness" of the community which will officially begin on 31 December 2015. To illustrate the concept of the design, ASEAN Member States' flags are unified in a form of flower. In the background, the pigeon symbolises the pacific aspect of the region. A handshake below the flags portrays friendship and the golden ears of rice refer to basic agriculture, the main ASEAN way of life.
