" The legacy of Bhutan's unmatched innovation in stamps and the Todd connection has been renewed through Burt Todd's daughter and her family. Following her father's death, Frances Todd Stewart took his last idea - to create the world's first CD-ROM postage stamp - and has formally partnered with Bhutan to produce these unique issues for their 2008/2009 release. In leading Bhutan wisely for the past 100 years, the royal Wangchuck family has consistently and proactively maintained the preservation of Bhutan’s traditions and culture as a priority. Recently, the 4th King, His Majesty Jigme Singye Wangchuck, showed his faith in the people by announcing that it would be in the best interest of the country if it transitioned to a parliamentary democracy. In 2007, he then handed over his leadership responsibilities to his royal heir, Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, whose energetic and mature outlook will guide Bhutan during this challenging era.

Through the medium of the CD-ROM, the stamp series will visually commemorate on video and thus preserve in perpetuity, some of Bhutan's most historic events: the 100th anniversary of the monarchy, the coronation of the 5th king, and Bhutan’s evolution to an emerging democracy and its signing of the new Constitution. On many levels this story is one of living legacies, and these stamps offer a small yet precious window into the mystical kingdom of Bhutan. An auspicious light will be shining on Bhutan in 2008 for all to see and hear as Bhutan transported its big messages on tiny CD-ROM stamps."
