Welcome! Welcome to the October 2008 issue of Focus - once aga in offering you a superb collection of stamps, coins and other collectables from New Zealand and around the world. I'm especially proud to tell you about our stamp and coin products commemorating the extraordinary life of the late Sir Edmund Hillary. So much more than a mountaineer. Sir Ed was an achiever on every level- as an intrepid adventurer and explorer. an ardent ambassador for our country. a passionate advocate for our young people. and a generous benefactor to the people of Nepal. His death was a profound loss, to our nation and to the Sherpas who benefited so greatly from his help . You may already be aware of the special coins we released in May to honour this amazing man. If you haven't acquired yours , now is a good time to place your order. Given Sir Ed's international standing. they have of course been extremely popular - and are likely to become even more so with the release of our commemorative stam p issue in November. November is also the month for Tarapex 2008. a New Zealand Nat ional Philate lic Exhibition sponsored by New Zealand Post. The exhibition is to be held at the TSS Stadium in New Plymouth. For the firs t time in New Zealand. the exhibition will incor porate the 'Australasian Stamp Challenge ' - a team com petitio n between exhibitors of each of the six Austra lian state s. the Australian Capital Territory and each of the North and South Islands of New Zealand . It shou ld make for a lively event ! I was also pleased to attend another philate lic event in Septem ber - the PostEurop Philate lic Forum in Vienna. Austria. PostEurop is an association of 48 European publ ic postal operators that aim s to optimise postal operat ions and postal services in Europe. and foster greater co-operation between its members. As one of the presenters at the Forum , I discussed trends and developments in philately and covered in great lengths our current and future strateg ies to support the industry. This Forum was held during the World Philatelic Exhibit ion. at whi ch New Zealand Post was repr esented . It was a fascinat ing experience! For me. 2008 has had many highlights like this - proof that the world of stamp s and collectables is alive and thriving. I look forward to br inging you more philatelic delights in the next issue!

Sir Edmund Hillary - A lifetime of achievement As soon as he reached the sum mit of the world's highest mountain 55 years ago. Sir Edmu nd Hillary (as he became just a few days later! was granted 'hero ' status in his home country. He was livi ng proof of the Kiwi'can do' attitude - a man of spirit , integrity and. above all . modesty.
New Zealand (19871. Knight of the Order of the Garter (19951 and holder of the Polar Medal (for his part in the 1955-58 Commonwealth Trans-Anta rctic Expedition).
Although he died in January 2008. Sir Ed's legacy lives on throu gh the achievements of his extraordinary life . For he was much mo re than an Everest-conqueror; he was a man who dedicated himself to the service of others.
Sir Ed's work in Nepal was perhaps his greatest achievement. As he himself said. -I don't know if I particularly want to be remembered for anything , I have enjoyed great satisfaction from my cl imb of Everest and my trips to the poles, But there 's no doubt. either. that my most worthwhile things have been the building of schools and medical clinics , That has given me more satisfaction than a footpri nt on a mountain."
More than a mountaineer For New Zealanders, Sir Ed was a role model; an intrepid explorer , a brave adventu rer , a worthy am bassador and a generous philanth ropist. For the Sher pa people of Nepal. he was a saviour. the man responsible for building despera tely needed schools and hospitals in tha t remote region of the Himalayas. He was a man of diverse talen ts : a navigator in the Royal New Zealand Air Force dur ing Wor ld War II, and a beekeeper until he tackled Mt Everest in 1953, He cli m bed 10 other peaks in th e Himalayas between 1956 and 1965, took a New Zealand team to the South Pole in 1958, and in 1977 led a jetboat expeditio n from the Ganges River's mouth to its source, In 1985 he became the first man to have stood at both the North and South Poles and on the summit of Everest. Sir Ed also achieved beyond the out doors, In 1985 he became New Zealand's High Commissioner to India (inclu ding Nepall: in 1992 he appeared on our $5 note [the only living New Zealander ever to do sol; and in 2003 he became an honorary citizen of Nepal - the first foreign national to receive such an honour from the Nepalese Government. In 2008. the same year in which he died, the Indian Government conferred him with Padma Vibhushan . the country's second-highest civilian honour. His other titles inclu ded Knight Commande r of the Order of the British Em pire 119531. membe rship of the Order of
His proudest work
In 1960 Sir Ed establishe d the Himalayan Trust. raising funds to buil d a three-room school-house in Khumjung - and throughout the 1960s return ed to help the Nepalese to build cli nics. hospitals and more schools . Over the next four decades he worked to raise the fun ds for , and hel p set up. more than 30 schools , two hospitals and 12 medic al cli nics. He also raised money to build two airstrips in Nepal to make it easier to bring in supplies , Even in his 80s, Sir Ed was spending mo re than half the year travelling the world , raising mo ney for the Trust and supervising its projects . Carrying on the tradition The Hilla ry philosophy is still with us. as Sir Ed's son Peter Hillary is dem onstr ating. The 54-year-old is carrying on his father's fund raising work and is a highly successful mountaineer. He has achieved two summits of Everest. an 84-day trek across Antarctica to the South Pole. and an expedition guiding astronaut Neil Armstrong to land at the North Pole. He has climbed many of the world 's major peaks, and on 19 June 2008 fulfilled his ambition of climbing the highest mountains on all seven continents when he reached the summit of Mt McKinley in Alaska, Peter dedicated this latest feat to his father. To remember a hero The five stam ps in this issue captu re highlights of Sir Ed's long and fulfilli ng li fe. The hero image on the 50c stam p was taken between expeditio ns in an office build ing in Chicago. by photographer Yousuf Kars h, The New Zealand flag li nks all five images and is also featured on the fir st day cover, alongside the date stamp that unite s th e silhouette of Mt Everest and the Southern Cross, The four remaining stam ps cover part s of Sir Ed's life for which he was best known, from his sum m it of Everest in 1953 and the Trans-Antarctic Expedition that was com pleted in 1958 to the establishment of the Hima layan Trust in 1960 and the Knigh t of the Order of the Garter to wh ich he was appoint ed in 1995.

Stamps - A window on our history, heritage and culture
\~ ~ "-( \ __ . "'~.
I am often asked to speak about the imp ortant role New Zealand Post plays wi thin the com munity. When doing so, I frequently find myse lf referring to the stam ps and coins we create, w hich provide a fascina ting wi ndow into the history, her itage and cul t ure of New Zealand. This year 's ANZAC series , wi th the wonderful image of John Luamanu and his daught er, reinforced the significa nce of our decisions in choosing the topics featured on stam p issues - and the need to continue to set high standards to preserve the rich her itage of the postage stam p. So the ANZAC series, com bined wi th other recent issues such as Mata riki , The A to Z of New Zeala nd and the North Island Main Trunk Line Centenary, are all hugely im porta nt in telling the story of our nation . I am imme nsely proud of our role in helping to celebrate our heritage and preserve the rich traditions of New Zealand through our stamps.

Matariki On 5 June we released the inaugural Matariki stam p issue, which was the first of a ser ies of issues to explore vario us aspects of Maori heritag e. art s and culture. New series will be released dur ing Matar iki each year. Whil e Matariki has been celebra ted within Maor idom for generations, it is a festival that in recent years has really begun to gain m omentu m for all New Zeala nders. l'rn delight ed New Zealand Post has beE'n able to recognise this un iquely Pacific celebration and fest ival.
The A to Z of New Zealand We have just seen a gr eat response to the issue titled The A to Z of New Zeala nd. This issue has not only been successf ul wi th col lectors. but proved popular wi th the general publi c as a whole and has received television and press m edia coverage .
This year I had the oppor tunity to be personally involved in the release of several stam p issues , inclu ding those celebrating Matarik i and Kingitanga .
It was tr em endous for m e to be able to part icipate in these activ ities . and in doing so help to raise the profile of stam ps and the im portant role they play wi thin the New Zealand business. arts and cul tural com mu nities.
Kingitanga stamp laun ch
All of these activities are part of a wi der plan to lift the profile of stam ps in New Zeala nd, hopefully with flow-on benefit s in terms of growth in philately in New Zealan d.
This year was the 150th anniversary of the establishme nt of th e Kingitanga movemen t, and a special stam p issue was created to mark the occasion . On 1 May the Kingitanga stam p issue was unvei led by King Tuheit ia at a special ceremo ny at the TOrangawaewae Mar ae in Ngaruawahia as part of the 150-year celeb rations . I attended this ceremony along wi th the New Zealand Post Chairman Rt Hon Jim Bolger , Deputy Chairman Ken Dougl as and others from the New Zealand Post team . This was a very movi ng occasio n and it was a great honour to be par ticipat ing in the ceremony.
I know that all reader s of this Focus publica tio n have an interes t in our nation and in collec ting pieces of our nationhood..be thi s th rough stam ps, coins or in some cases both. Thank you for your conti nued trust in and support for the wor k we do, and for your com men ts and feedback along th e way.

Recent stamp issues The A to Z of New ZeaLand
North IsLand Main Trunk Line Centenary
A little bit cheeky and plain old-fashioned fun. The A to Z of New Zealan d stamp issue is a feel -good look at our past and present; the qu irk y stamps are of well loved culture, history. heritage and downright Kiwiana.
On 7 August 1908, the first train ever to travel the length of New Zealand's North Island Main Trunk Line left Wellington, bound for Auckland. Three m onths late r, the route was officially opened.
This issue is the most popula r stamp release of the year. It' s great to see New Zealanders of all ages enjoying the stam ps. Receiving a free poster with first day cover and stamp sets has proved to be a very pleasin g addition to the product. •

The Nort h Island Main Tr unk Line may be a railway line, but it's also much, mu ch mor e. For a start , the b80·kilometre stretch of track took 23 years to build . It was also the largest civil engineering project ever undertaken by the Govern ment's Public Wor ks Department of the time. And it was a miracle of engineering and construction, overcoming extraordinary geographical bar r iers and featuring world-famous structures such as the Raurimu Spiral and eight great steel viaducts that strode across the most mountainous parts of its route . The Line has also hosted a range of locomotives designed especially for the terrain. from the steam engines of the 'golden era' to the powerful electric models introduced when the Line was electri fied . •

. Matariki stamp launch Matar iki is a time of new beginnings. It is also a time to refl ect upon the year that was and to look forwa rd to the year ahead. In the spirit of new beginnings, New Zealand Post chose Matariki as the time to launch the inaugural stam p issue in an annual serie s exploring Te Ao Maori, the Maor i World . The stunning range of Matariki stam ps was unveiled at a cocktail function on Rongomarae Marae, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. Guests were greeted by New Zeala nd Post staff and Te Papa hosts before being handed a glass of bubbles to toast the occasion. Conch shells soun ded to begin festivities and Kukupa Tirikatene, Kaumat ua, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, opened formalities wi th a kar akia.

John Allen, Chief Executive, New Zealand Post Group, then addressed a captivated crowd touching on the im portance and sign ificance of Matar iki to New Zealanders and highlighting the signific ance of lau nchi ng the stam ps at 'Our Place' . Guest speaker Professor Piri Sciasci a, Pro Vice Chancellor Maori, Victoria University of Wellington, officially unveiled the stamp issue. Prof Sciascia spoke of the im portant history of stam ps and their relevance today. Enter tainm ent was provided by Mapihi Maurea, a local kapa haka group involving stu dents from Wellington College and Well ington Girls' College. Their perf orman ces were a highlight for many guests. An unexpect ed addition to the evening was an improm ptu haka led by Maori Party co- leader and renown ed academic , Dr Pita Sharples, a tribute to New Zealand Post's initiative. The haka was a stri king example of how Matar iki br ings people together , encouraging people to give wha t they can to make an occasion memora ble. Aft er the forma lities guests were able to enjoy taking a closer took at Len Hetet's groundbreak ing designs , Each stam p reflec ts a traditional concept from Whakapapa to Takoha lqiftinq], Te Moana Nu i A Kiwa Ithe Pacific Oceanlto Ranginui, Papatuanuku and TeTau Hou Ithe new year!. Each stam p design melds ima ges from New Zealand's natural environment with beauti ful artworks that refl ect the respective theme. All these aspects were appreciated by those at the launch - in itself a milestone event for New Zealand Post and for the Stam ps Business.
2008 Customer Satisfaction Survey results Once again, we'd like to offer our thanks to all our custome rs w ho found the time to com plete th e Customer Satisfac tion Survey this year, Of the 3,000 questionnaires we posted out, 1,000 we re returned by custome rs keen to share their w ide- ranging opinions on the level of service they receive from us, This is a trem endous response rat e that tops last year's by 8% - the more responses we receive, the bett er gauge we have of what we're gelling right and what eleme nts of our service need to be im proved. You r input really is critical. The key performance areas on which we sought custo me r feedback included, but weren't li mited to, fulfilm ent of your philatelic orders , handl ing of your queries and the value you place on our communications. Our aim is always to exceed customer expectations so the performance benchmarks we set ourselves are extremely high. We are therefore very happy to report that for 91% of our respondents, our overall service succeeds in doing just this. So in what specific aspects of service delivery did you say we excelled? Well you're certainly more tha n satisf ied with our fulf ilment of your stamp orders , whic h you all agree arrive promp tly, are accurate and are in fine condition on receipt. You also gave us a big thumbs up for the quality of our stam p issues and 87% of you think The New Zealand Collec tion 2007 is lookin g beller than ever. _
Focus issue 4& October2008
Point s of view on our choice of stam p topics are a m ixed bag and present a real dilemma for us here at Stam ps HQ. The perfect stam p design for us is one tha t is loved by our loyal customer base and that al so mak es the non-coll ecting world sit up and take notice. The balan ce can be a hard one to stri ke ! The Pocket Pets stam p release is a good exam ple. It is one of our most successf ul issues, yet the survey resu lt s indicate it is our least popul ar theme. On the plus side, it gets non-collectors using cur rent issue stam ps as postage and it has a big fan base amo ng our newer collecto rs . 79% of you were more than satisf ied with our handling of email enqui ries . Whilst th is is a slight im provemen t on previous years , it still fails to hit the high level of customer satisf action we strive to attain, and the refore has been fla gged as a cause for concern . Investigations are currently underway to identify what the key issues are and how we can best rectify them, Whil st a large propor tion of you were very posit ive about the im proveme nts we've made to the look and feel of Focus, some of you are still voicin g concerns over its content. You 'll see that in response to this feedback we've included more techn ical details for each stam p issue as well as incl uding pictor ial date stam ps. We also plan to publish more special interest articles contributed by guest w rite rs wi th expert knowle dge of a specific philatelic subjec t matter; A big thank you to Chris Well s w ho has contributed the first of these : Tarapex 2008. www .nzposl.co.nz/ stamp s
