For many of the 300,000 people living in the IDP camps in Wanni, a simple hot meal has become a luxury they hardly dare dream about. Wanting to make at least a little difference in the lives of these Sri Lankans who have seen so much suffering these past few months, the Chefs Guild of Sri Lanka has stepped in to help by doing what they know best; cooking.

Well beyond public service

On May 14, an event of commemoration and thanksgiving for the life and work of the late Stanley Kirinde, public servant and artist, was held in one of the chapels of the Cathedral on Bauddhaloka Mawatha. The reading of the scriptures was by Brenda Jayasinghe, wife of the late W.T. Jayasinghe, former Sri Lanka Foreign Secretary. May 14 was also the birthday of W.T. Jayasinghe (“WT” to his many “workers”, admirers and friends). Typical of Jayasinghe family modesty, hardly anyone was told of the significance of the date.
