Indonesia: 2018 Asian Games

The 2018 Asian Games (Indonesian: Pesta Olahraga Asia 2018), officially known as the 18th Asian Games, XVIII Asiad and also known as Jakarta–Palembang 2018, was a pan-Asian multi-sport event held from 18 August to 2 September 2018 in the Indonesian cities of Jakarta and Palembang. For the first time, the Asian Games were co-hosted in two cities; the Indonesian capital of Jakarta (which is hosting the Games for the first time since 1962), and Palembang, the capital of the South Sumatera province. Almost 12.000 Athletes participated in over 40 sports and 465 Events.

I'm very happy to receive several Covers with the commemorating stamps for this event from my indonesian friends. Thanks a lot!


A set of 9 stamps (denomination Rp 3000 each) was issued, including 2 minisheets (den. Rp 15000).
