Introduction：The display glass frame overlaid inside with green velvet shows a set of commemorative stamps (come in NT$2, NT$8, and NT$ 12 denominations), a collection card, a first day cover, and a commemorative envelope, which was specially designed and published in 1980 by Chunghwa Post, Ministry of Transportation and Communications, to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the death of President Chiang Kai-shek. On the collection card, the cause of issuing the set reads: "Former President Chiang Kai-shek was a revolutionary giant who followed the past and heralded the future of the Republic of China and an anti-communist leader of the twentieth century. His meritorious accomplishments leave a good reputation for ages to come and he is here with us in spirit forever. He dedicated his life to the revolution, was loyal to the Republic, kept faith with founding father's principles, carried out Three Principles of the People, and propagated constitutional democracy. He went through Easter Expedition, Northern Expedition, counter-insurgency, Second Sino-Japanese War, and the suppression of Communist rebellion, as well as constructing Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, and the Matsu Islands as bases, and leading anti-Communist cause. He was filled with the aspiration to love his country, nation, and humankind. His feats are shining, his ambitions are faithful, and his vision of anti-communism is admired all over the world. We specially issued a set of commemorative stamps on the April 4 of 1980 (Tomb Sweeping Day), i.e., the date of completion and grand opening of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, in celebration of the fifth anniversary of the death of Chiang Kai-shek."
