Under government sponsorship young students are given grants to study abroad and they return to The Maldives to give service to the country. Brilliant young women hold key positions in the government, working tirelessly to serve their country and people. Fishermen unload their silvery haul. Women attired in traditional dress sweep the grounds of a school readying it for a special Independence Day celebration. Five times a day finds a nation expressing religious devotion in prayer at one of the many mosques.
Festivals give way to fun-loving, talented men and women singing and dancing.
