Description
This stamp pays tribute to the daily Assabah, founded in 1951 by Habib Cheikhrouhou, which was the first major independent Arabic-language newspaper in Tunisia. The visual integrates the historic front page of the first issue with a rising sun, symbolizing the awakening of national consciousness and the crucial role of the written press in the struggle for independence. This program celebrates seven decades of local journalism and the sustainability of a media institution which has accompanied the social and political evolution of contemporary Tunisian society.
