Dear Sir/Madam, The designated operator of MALI, Mali Post, asks me to inform the designated operators of UPU member countries of the following: "Mali Post has recently identified a significant number of illegal stamp issues for sale on various online sales sites, under the theme of 'Grands champs de bataille' (Great Battlefields). "Mali Post would like to inform the postal community that the only legal stamp issue for 2015 is the 'Manuscrits de Tombouctou' (Timbuktu Manuscripts) issue, which went on sale in January 2015 with no specific features: First Day Cover or other indications. "Mali Post formally confirms that all other issues for 2015 in the name of Mali, with the exception of the issue described above, are illegal, and the perpetrators must be denounced and brought to justice." Yours faithfully, Murray Buchanan Director of Regulation, Economics and Markets
