World and Croatian Post Mark Their Anniversary
Under the slogan “World Postal Network: Stay in Touch”, World Post Day will be marked on October 9, and a day later, Croatian Post will celebrate its Day.
World Post Day is marked throughout the world in the memory of establishing World Postal Union, one of the oldest international organizations. Namely, delegates of 22 countries from Europe, America and African have signed the so called Bern Treaty on October 9, 1874 which founded the first joint convention on international postal traffic. This was the first step towards realizing principles of universality of the postal services on a unified postal territory, Croatian Post informs.
It is pointed out that on October 10 workers of Croatian Post will mark their day as a Remembrance Day of 1990 when the Croatian Parliament reached the Law on founding the public Croatian postal and Telecommunications Company.
Croatia became a member of the World Postal Union on July 20, 1992, thus becoming an equal participant in international postal traffic and a part of the largest delivery network in the world.
