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.

BEWARE - email hacking
Beware - A simple trick email hackers use
Out of the blues when you open your email for the day you will get an email supposed to be from your email provider to CONFIRM your USER NAME and PASSWORD. Forward this EMAIL to your EMAIL PROVIDERS ADDRESS. DO NOT REPLY this email giving the requested information. NEVER EVER GIVE your PASSWORD as requested. If you give the requested information people on your list of contacts will get emails supposedly coming from you asking for money. Do not fall into this trap.

Our 1960 Medical entrance batch, at the 25th anniversary reunion, in Kandy
How many of them can you pick out and identify? It is tantalizing because the image is not too blurred and not too sharp. I took these pictures at Hotel Topaz, Kandy. Please email me any similar photos you have to put on our batch blog.

Death of Dr. Murugananthan
---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Dr. Pearl Hettiaratchy
Date: 2 July 2012 13:41
Subject: Sad News
To: 1960 medical batch Colombo <1960batch@gmail.com>
Dear Philip,
Over the weekend we heard the sad news that our dear friend Murgananthan passed away in early June after a short illness. He was fit & well & had a routine blood screen in April when he was diagnosed with Acute Leukaemia. Was treated in London & died on 7th June. I have spoken to his daughter Niro today & they are having an almsgiving in Ealing London on Sunday 8th July. Sidney & I will be attending.
I will forward all contact details later today as I was unable to speak to Muru's wife Thiraviam.
Niro was happy for the batch to be notified. We are sad we didn't hear of it earlier so that we could have attended his funeral to pay our respect.
Kind Regards
Pearl
