There are things in life that money could not buy, one of which is happiness. No amount of money can buy peace and happiness. True peace and true happiness that is.

The Sri Lankan community in Auckland joined the uprising trend to protect Sri Lanka in this final hour. They organized two massive campaigns on the 21nd and 22 in Auckland. The first event was coordinated by the Shakthi Foundation. They organized a motor parade.It was well attended with over 60 cars decorated with Sri Lanka flag. Each car also carried two or three posters about the war in Sri lanka.

The second event was organized by the United Sri Lanka Association. It was a tremendous success with the participation of over 400 patriotic Sri Lankans. The event was well coordinated but LTTE supporters attempted many times to provoke the Sri Lankan participants.

The greatness of the irrigation systems of Sri Lanka is summed up in the University History of Ceylon: `the construction of reservoirs originated from the meager knowledge the Indo-Aryan settlers had. From this basic elementary knowledge, there developed later the greatest engineering skill exhibited in the ancient Sinhalese Kingdom namely the progressive building up of a colossal and complex system of interrelated dams, canals and tanks, mingling the waters of rivers flowing in different directions no parallel system of the same magnitude or intricacy existed in contemporary India.`

Happy wedded life!!! And We all wish you all the happyness in your life...:-)

LNP friends..

People make films for many reasons - to entertain, to make money, to clinch a few awards and most often for all of the above... Whatever else may have been the reason for Chandran Rutnam creating The Road from Elephant Pass, one reason stands out as the most significant.
This book says more about the country`s ethnic conflict than discussed in any peace conference, says Rutnam in his emphatic signature style. Wearing a camouflage cloth cap that reads `The Road from Elephant Pass`, well-known director and film maker Rutnam quotes sections from the award winning novel of the same title by the late Nihal de Silva, on which he has based the motion picture, which is also directed by him.

Wish all of you peace and happyness in the coming year!!

Samadi and family..:)

Cheers..have a good one..!!!!

~~Lyrics~~

Daddy`s little girl
Paints the world with her magic wand
Daddy`s little child
Breathes new life to the morning time, for me
Though we`re apart, her thoughts follow me

When I come home
Molly smiles with the dawn
