The Mongolian Post Company
inaugurated today the first in a series of three stamp sets honoring
Mongolia’s Grand Champion Sumo wrestler Asashyoro.
The stamps in the first set
being issued show Asashyoro dressed in the uniform of a baseball player,
the second is with complete Yokozuna's dress and the third is in traditional
Mongolian dress on horseback.
"Thank you, especially
all Mongolians who have supported me. I am so happy that I won the Spring
Grand Sumo Tournament in keeping with the people's belief," Asashyoro
said during the ceremony.
During the event, a memorandum
was signed between the Asashyoro Foundation and Mongol Post Company
pledging future cooperation.
