Malaya

This is a disambiguation page for the stamp issuing entities in the Malayan peninsula.

Again, we have a situation where it's been easy to lump together a bunch of entities/countries under "Malaya" and making you wonder why the history jumps around from time period to time period. Instead, in Stamp encyclopedia, everything has been broken down by stamp-issuing state or group with some explanation of the interconnections that can hopefully be followed through time. Don't worry, you'll probably be confused either way.
