Issued in 1996, this commemorative pair from the Republic of the Philippines celebrates the 100th anniversary of Sun Life of Canada (1895–1995), the first and oldest life insurance company operating in the Philippines. The ₱2 stamp features a colorful depiction of Intramuros, the historic walled city of Manila, while the ₱8 stamp showcases a serene Manila Bay sunset. Both designs combine vivid modern color gradients with symbolic national imagery, marking a century of service and partnership between Canada and the Philippines.
