@JapanEmb_SL Super, super! Thank you Japan!

@CanHCSriLanka Which is better, U.S. or Canadian wheat?

@EU_in_Sri_Lanka @eu_eeas @EU_Commission Literally and metaphorically, "There, but for the Grace of God, go I (us)."

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL Why not (also) a "creative" English writer?

@RusEmbSriLanka God saved the World! Once the USA entered the war, the first thing they did was ship boots to the Red Army. Josef Stalin and the Nazis were responsible in bifurcating Poland.

@JapanEmb_SL "Jaye Container Terminal" (JCT) was its name.

@JapanEmb_SL Japan gave Sri Lanka's first transshipment port way back in 1985, located at the Colombo Port.

@IndiainSL Indian fisher poaching? Like the three proverbial monkeys, Sri Lanka (regrettably, wish we had another JRJ!) and the culprit India, "See no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil!"

@USEmbSL Wish there were more "reporter friendly," writable details....

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL Are we, beginning with I (!), ready for the Second Coming?

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@WorldBankSAsia English, I think is still sine qua non. In 1978, President J.R. Jayewardene speaking over the radio (there was no TV then) said that he will "import" teachers from England to teach our children English...

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL is print media writing irrelevant?

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@UKinSriLanka @BritishArmy Wow, super! Regrettably, "I play the Englishman's fiddle>"

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@jica_direct_en ...in tea? More precisely in black tea...?

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL @FulbrightPrgrm I believe if such persons are not a security threat they will be allowed in-but, from a terrestrial perspective, I really do not know.

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@ADB_HQ "newspaper!" Apologies for the misspell in the previous...!

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@ADB_HQ Thankful if you could email the same to [email protected] once out. I'm a reporter attached to "Ceylon Today" nespaper in Sri Lanka.

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL @USCG @srilanka_navy Well, well, Vel, Do you know that the majority of Jaffna Tamils live outisde of the Northern Province of Sri Lanka, like you yourself, enjoying the good life in the "West"-that also includes New Zealand and Australia.

[Paneetha Ameresekere @PaneethaA]

@USEmbSL Ha, ha, Indira and Rajiv Gandhi "destroyed" Sri Lanka and now, blatant Indian fisher poaching is doing the same, given the fact that the majority of Sri Lankans get their animal protein diet from fish.
