Three years after Tsunami

26 December 2007

This is the third year memorial service after the tsunami hit the Vaddawan village in Batticaloa. Many people participated in the memorial service at Blue Bird Nest Children’s center on December 26, 2007. Vaddawan is developing and people now talk about the future not only past events. The memorial event was supported by Yomiuri Light and Humanity Association. Thank you.
