At present, there are over dozen such aid collecting programs sponsored by the state and non-state institutions. Aid collecting centres have been established in every major town, whereas vehicle conveys are traveling across the country receiving donations made even at the remotest village. No one had to ask them to make donations; it is the spontaneous response of the Sri Lankan citizens to the sufferings of their own brethren. One cannot see any racial barrier to their compassion, but there is a firm resolution on their faces. A resolve to stand against all odds and to help their brethren is clear on every face.
Never in her 2500 year old documented history, has Sri Lanka fought a war aimed at destroying another nation or to exploit wealth of the others. Never has she committed despicable crimes like helping terrorist movements in neighbouring countries, or driven millions of people to their death by starvation by maintaining economic blockades. The war she has been fighting during last quarter century is to free her own citizens from the clutches of the most barbaric terrorist outfit known to mankind. Yet, it is so unfortunate that the so-called international community has been so miserly in lending its helping hand to the people of this Third World nation to end its misery.
