Cabinet discussed the present conditions in the welfare camps and villages, and the measures to be taken to improve them. The President instructed the ministers to speed up action to attend to the humanitarian needs of the displaced civilians. He said that action had been taken to construct 2000 permanent toilets in these camps (in place of the portable toilets) for these people.The President also emphasised the need to send more health workers to these camps. He noted that doctors were reluctant to be based permanently in the camps to treat the sick in the camps.
He said he would be compelled, therefore, to send at least nurses to the camps to attend
to needs such as blood transfusions and taking of blood pressure.
He said he had wanted to deploy doctors who had completed their internship; but the Government Medical Officers’ Association had objected to their being sent before their registration.
The President pointed out that the government could not wait till all these problems were sorted out and, therefore, urgent steps would be taken to address the health needs of these people.
During the Cabinet meeting, he also contacted Attorney General Mohan Peiris, who was in Geneva, to inquire about the progress made at the UN Human Rights Council session on Sri Lanka. He instructed Mr. Peiris not to agree to any proposal to set up a UN Human Rights -monitoring mission here.
Mr. Peiris had reportedly informed him that Sri Lanka would be able to secure a majority at the session.

But, Should it, or would it stop an accidental misfire of a gun of some innocent patriotic soldier who happened to be around them. The shonky guns the west sold to Sri Lanka after receiving generous commissions have done it many times in the past. Its very fortunate no singhalese had been hurt so far.
Maybe Their Daughter in Scarborough - Toronto should Sponser them to Canada .... This Will be a Boost For Thamil Eelam in Scarborough !
May his parents live long.They need not worry about their brutal(thirison) son's fate. They would worry what he has done to their own people.

I can't tell the difference between Prabhakran's dad or my granddad, and im sinhala. They seem like caring, and helpless people and I hope they are kept safe. It's not their fault that their son turned into a killing machine.
