attached are two stamps that I would like to identify the country of origin.

One appears to be Chinese or Korean? The other no idea.

These are harder than last two that I posted.

Thanks again tor the help

popeye, when you start posting pictures please make sure they are not only right side up but also in focus,
People are spending their time helping you, please help them by posting correctly.

Having said that at least one of them seems to be an issue of the Japanese occupation in Southeast Asia, maybe both

First, let's get the orientation correct:



The orange stamp on the left - Japanese occupation of the Phillippines (issued in 1943). The four characters at the top of the stamp were the 'clue'.

The brown stamp on the right - Republic of China (ROC) or Taiwan (issued in 1959 as part of the Chu Kwang Tower Quemoy series). The characters at the bottom of the stamp were the 'clue'.
