The story

The front shows an airplane leaving Velana International Airport and a fisherman with tuna, two pillars of the Maldivian economy: tourism and fishing. The back shows the dhoni, the traditional sailing boat that has carried islanders, fish and trade between the atolls for centuries. The note’s theme is “our industrial and economic progress”.
