Prof 'Sinna's statement

'Prof Sinna' incident.
Prof Sinna happened to be in a crowd who were discussing about a recent cricket match between the West Indies and England which had ended in a draw in the early 1960s. 'Sinna' made the following observation:-
'I am sure that if the whole of India had played (instead of only the West Indies) against England they would have beaten the fellows and all that'.

Hello Batch-mates,

I was invited by the Batticaloa Medical Association to be their Chief Guest and partake in their annual sessions. I gave an address at the opening ceremony. I ran into our own 'Jeya'. She was there with her doctor daughter and son in law. I have attached two pictures and a video link below. Please click on the video link to see Jeyadevi introducing her daughter:-

CHINA

Hi
This is no deviation--The dominant presence of China in the Indian Ocean region is being watched with hawk eyes in the West.  
 China will successfully bypass the Straits of Malacca that is severely congested.  Several ports, with Chinese funding are rising in many countries in the region.  Sri Lanka would play a pivotal role.
 

We are seeing a new World Order taking shape at a brisk pace.
