Japaneis Social workers met in Bandaranayake International Air Port

Mr. Michiya Tominaga/ Alexandra Gellin and their workers team visited in Sri Lanka, Past August. Here is some memorable pictures. They are here for 03 days workshop, held in several places in Kurunegala district to develop rural village women skills.

weCAN workshop for Telecentre Operators

in past Octomber 27 and 28, Telecentre family organized weCAN workshop for the telecentre operator who active participate with TCF in Sri Lanka.

it like a baby in 2005 " Telecentre Family in Sri Lanka "

View the opening ceromony

in year 2005 Sarvodaya and ICTA Sri Lnka with telecentre.org from Canada created Telecentre family network in Sri Lanka.

The important ceromony held at Sarvodaya Head Quaters. There have a some photos, and identifyed problums telecentre operator faced at their villeges.

This is the final session of this workshop. Dr. Harsha asked the group representatives to present the problem at which his or her group looked and explain the solutions with which they came up.

*** The problem we identified was the lack of participation by people. We have too little technology for the village. We decided that to get past this we need to give information about this through a printed document. We made a poster to present our work to the village. I told everyone that we would hand out the leaflet to every villager, but realized this was not practical. Instead we should distribute it to a targeted group. Our team has more participants from the “Virtual Village” project and so we actually looked at the question from only a narrow viewpoint so I think we need to address a broader spectrum.


*** The problem we addressed was that neither we nor our Telecenters are developed enough. Our poster has a bird flying at the top. This is to represent how we would progress. We need to create this development and through it, develop the people

*** IT is not at the required level of development and we lack media exposure. We decided that we really need to use the TV and radio for this and distribute leaflets and talk at schools. We need to go to villages and talk about it. We can’t really access the TV and radio by ourselves so we have to really get our mother institutions, Sarvodaya or something else, involved with this process. Also, it is important that all Telecenter operators do this publicity work at the village level through things like leaflets.

*** Our problem was that people do not know how to use IT for their daily needs. I explained a lot to people about what we meant by daily needs. I think the best way is to improve the knowledge of the villagers about this.

Yala National Park - Nearest to City of Tissamaharama

Yala National Park is a national park in Sri Lanka. The reserve covers 979 km², although only the original 141 km² are open to the public.Much of the reserve is parkland, but it also contains jungle, beaches, freshwater lakes and rivers and scrubland. The latter zone is punctuated with enormous rocky outcrops. The range of habitats give rise to a good range of wildlife.

Yala has the world's highest concentration of Leopards, although seeing this largely nocturnal carnivore still requires some luck. There are good numbers of Asian Elephants, Crocodile, Wild Boar, Water Buffalo and Grey langurs amongst other large animals.

The open parkland attracts birds of prey such as White-bellied Sea Eagle and the wetlands have Waders, Painted Storks, and the rare Black-necked Stork.Landbirds of course are in abundance, and include Sirkeer Malkoha, Indian Peafowl and Sri Lanka Junglefowl.The park was badly damaged by the tsunami of 26th December 2004, with the destruction of the wildlife center and tourist lodge. Many tourists, including a party of 22 Japanese, died in the disaster, as did several of the national park and lodge employees. It is claimed that no evidence of large-scale animal deaths from the tsunami was found indicating that animals may have sensed the wave coming and fled to higher ground.Now it is again open to the public visitors.The following image gallery illustrates some of the animals and bird species found in the Yala national park.

Conservation of Tissamaharama Stupa

The chief priest of the Tissamaharama temple had pointed out to the head of the State on one of his inspections in 1993 that the Tissa Maha stupa had developed series of vertical cracks right round the dome of the stupa. According to him, the phenomena had started around 10 years before and was attributed the vibration caused by heavy lorries boulders to Kirinda down a road adjacent to the stupa. The author was requested to inspect the stupa immediately and submit a report. Accordingly an inspection was carried out by the SEC and a report was submitted to the Department of Archaeology on 22nd June 1993. According to this report there were ten large structural cracks which were almost vertical and were evenly distributed around the dome. Each crack had the widest separation at the middle of the dome, (where one could insert a clenched fist ), and appeared to spread towards the top square (Hatareskotuwa) and towards the basal terraces (Pesawas). The structural integrity of the stupa was definitely impaired and was beyond restoration to its original condition except through removal of the separated section and re building. It was also evident that one could not predict when there would be a catastrophic collapse not unlink the one occurred at Mirisavetiya.

Ttssamaharama Maha Stupa (Mahanaga stupa?), had been restored fully 1900 with public donation. No records were available of the construction work, (except that the total cost of reconstruction was Rs. 19,000/=), nor how the ruins looked like before restoration works. In fact, little information is available as to the period of original construction of four stupas found today at Tissa, the ancient Magama. (The stupas being Mahanaga, Yatala, Sandagiri and Menik Stupas ). The Mahanaga or the Tissamaharama stupa was probably built in early second half of the third century BC by king Mahanaga (the first king of Mahanaga ), or by King Kavanthissa in first half of the second century BC. It appears that no restoration work was done on this stupa till the last half of the 19th century (1857-1900), after the last rifling of this stupa by King Magha(1215-1236 AD).
In early 1994, the Director General of Archaeology requested the SEC to submit proposal for the prevention of a catastrophic failure of the stupa, which was imminent. The proposal made by the SEC consisted of embedding horizontal reinforced concrete rings, nine in number, placed just below the surface of the dome, suitably spaced between the Pesawa and the Hatareskotuwa. This proposal was submitted after computer assisted structural analysis by our engineers using available data (the quality of the surface bricks), and was carried out with the help of the civil engineering department of the university of Paradeniya. This proposal was accepted and the SEC started work on the first ring at the top most part of the stupa on 14th june 1995.
To construct the RC ring beams in the dome, bricks on the surface of dome of dome had to be removed to a depth of about one foot and to a width of about a foot for each of the ring beams. Whist constructing the first beams , we noticed that the original cracks had developed further since the first inspection and also the number of cracks had also gone up to 16 from the initial 10 The Hareskotuwa also showed cracks at certain places. It was evident that any tampering with the existing dome such as construction of trenches to embed the RC ring would further weaken the structure, especially the trenches which would have to be made on the vertical part of the dome. Two internationally reputed conservation engineering experts, (Mr.Alan Baxter and Professor Crochi ) were consulted by the Dept. of Archaeology and they too expressed concern about removal of any brick work from the stupa dome. Therefore, it was decided to stop embedding RC rings after the top most beams, and seek further proposal from the local engineering organizations for a suitable method that does not involve further weakening of the structure even temporarily during application of preventive measures.
