Malaysia: Giant Panda at the Zoo Negara

Today I got a postcard from Malaysia.

It shows one of the Giant Pandas from the Zoo Negara, the National Zoo of Malaysia, in Ulu Klang in the Malaysian State of Selangor. The Zoo Negara is home to more than 5000 animals of over 450 species and is thus the largest zoo in Malaysia. It opened in 1963. Since 2014 houses the zoo two Giant Pandas. They are called Liang Liang (female) and Xing Xing (male). The card shows Liang Liang. They came to Malaysia to commemorate 40 years of diplomatic relations between China and Malaysia and will stay there for ten years.


With a nice matching stamp:
International Cooperative Project On Giant Panda-Liang Liang (from set of two) (issued 25-02-2015)


Thank You very much Matthew!
