Ex- Vaddahs, Aborogieis & Red Indians (although the pioneers & the governments helped a lot for this)Bt you should keep a balance of taking new things in to your culture & preserving the old traditions. So looking at what has happened, to Japan I dont think Sri Lakna is doing that bad.Sure that the new generation is adopting more western trends more than ever, bt still we respect our elders & teachers, we still respect the Buddhist way of life & its customs. Think we have a good balance, even though we hear from time to time some perverted acts (as with any society for that matter).Think India & Sri Lanka are in the same position these days. Welcoming Westernization to their cultures bt still trying to keep a good balance between preserving & following the old traditions & believes to some degree.</blockquote>
