Tsunami: Politics of Relief in Sri Lanka
Institute For Topical Studies, Chennai, India
Extract: "The Tsunami offered both GOSL and LTTE a very good opportunity to set aside their differences for the time being and get involved in relief and rehabilitation work together. [...] But unfortunately such a thought requires a political dynamism that appears to be lacking. Even now it's not too late. There are still opportunities in distress. One can only hope they get together to get the country going rather than promote narrow, sectarian agenda." - r. hariharan.
