Commendable Quote
  Europe which has a total population of 800 million is made up of 45 language based nation states. South Asia which has a total population of one billion, (1000 million) is comprised of four states. Who is preventing and therefore benefiting by limiting new nation-states in South Asia?

A farmer and boy killed in claymore attack in Nedunkerni

A farmer and a boy were killed in a claymore attack by the SLA in Olumadhu in Nedunkerni in Vavuniya north at 4.00pm Thursday, 28 August 2008.

The motorbike in which the pair was travelling came under the claymore attack as they were brining vegetables to the market. Most of the people from Nedunkerni have already displaced, however, few farmers remain hoping to harvest the produce for which they have already invested heavily.

In the meantime, fishermen of Chemmalai in the Mullaithivu district were attacked by the SLA at sea. According to the fishermen, they had spread their nets at 3.00am yesterday morning and were waiting when the Sri Lankan Navy (SLN) arrived at 6.00pm and began attacking. More than 16 Dvora boats of the SLN attacked the fishermen. The boats belonging to the fishermen were destroyed and the fishermen were forced to swim to safety. The fisherman also lost their valuable nets in the attack.
