Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Postal Institute (INPOSDOM) launched a commemorative stamp marking the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the Dominican Republic and Guyana, highlighting five decades of cooperation, friendship, and regional partnership between the two nations.

During the ceremony, INPOSDOM Director General Erick Guzmán described the stamp as a symbol of the strong ties that unite both countries and their shared commitment to regional integration, sustainable development, and continued collaboration. Dominican Ambassador to Guyana Ernesto Torres also emphasized the initiative as a reflection of the growing diplomatic, commercial, and cultural relationship between the two nations.
