From Kolpity to Kollupitiya via ST

By Lionel Caldera, Battaramulla

In response to my letter published in The Sunday Times of 21.01.2007 (http://sundaytimes.lk/070121/Plus/002_pls.html) about the amusing word “Kolpity” written on a gantry across the main highway to Parliament at Etul Kotte by the RDA, now I see the correction has been made. The board reads proudly “Kollupitiya”.

Then
Now

The passers-by along this road are happy to see the correct name and I must thank the Chief Engineer, RDA and The Sunday Times for spotlighting this.
