Syria regains its full membership in the Mediterranean Postal Union after a 15-year suspension.
Details:
The Syrian Postal Corporation announced that the Syrian Arab Republic obtained its full membership in the Postal Union of the Mediterranean Basin (PUMed), 15 years after the suspension of its membership, during the union's meetings held in Malta with the participation of the fund's CEO, Imad al-Din Hamed.
The corporation explained, in a statement to SANA today, Thursday, that this achievement came as the culmination of its efforts in the last phase to restore its international presence, starting with the reactivation of its full membership in the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and the resumption of the movement of sending and receiving letters, documents and postal packages from all countries of the world to the Euro-Mediterranean.
The institution explained that this return opens up wider horizons for the Syrian post office for cooperation and integration with postal institutions in the countries of the Mediterranean basin, especially in the fields of shipping, logistics services and electronic commerce, and facilitates the transfer of packages and mail deliveries between the member states.
She confirmed that the move improves opportunities for trade exchanges and restores Syria's role based on its geographical location connecting the East and the West. It also establishes a new phase of international partnerships to translate them into services and tangible economic opportunities in the fields of e-commerce and postal delivery, which reflects positively on citizens, the business sector and the national economy.
