It also aims to provide insights into the Republic''s maritime past and progression over the years.
"The spot UV technology has allowed us to achieve high quality tactile effects that would not have been possible through any other printing technology," said Captain Frederick. "It enhances what the book has set out to do -- enabling readers to view the hidden beauty of our colourful corals and marine life, especially around the islands that are not accessible to the public."
In April 2016, Konica Minolta, Inc. announced an additional 30.5% stake in MGI, increasing Konica Minolta stake to 40.5%.
