內戰、情報、郵政服務 Civil War, Intelligence, Postal Administration ​

Until the nineties, post offices in China also provided cable communication services. The ability to control the post offices was therefore an important factor to win the Civil War (War of Liberation). Recently released records reveal that during the War of Liberation, a large number of post office staff were underground Communist party members. Maintaining the communication (and thereby postal service) at all cost was therefore more than a job or duty. This may well explain Mao Zedong’s promulgation of “ trio-preservations” policy and the dozens of Day of Liberation philatelic materials shown in this collection.​ 直至九十年代，郵局亦有提供電訊服務，因此控制郵局為國共內戰擭勝主要因素，從近日來解禁的記錄來看，很多郵電 工作從員，都是共産黨地下黨員，在任何情況下保持郵電服務是他們使命，這也可以解釋毛主席「三保留 」的涵義。​
