The delegation of German MPs currently in Sri Lanka, headed to the North after a meeting with the Governor of the Northern Province Major General G.A.Chandrasiri. In the North, they visited the Cheddikulam Hospital which received financial assistance from the German Red Cross (DRK) and Menik Farm – where some of the projects had been funded by the German Organisation - Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund ASB.
Their visit besides included the Agromart (WHH) Resettlement project in Punkuditivu to which recovery assistance has been given for resettled families in Northern Sri Lanka by the German Federal Government. The delegates were warmly received by the Archbishop of Jaffna the His Lordship
Dr. Thomas Saundranayagam and the Mayor of Jaffna Urban Council Yogeswari Patgunarajah.
Germany on its part spends 15 million US$ per year on resettlement and demining in the North.
The delegation in the meantime was very much impressed by the unique beauty of the Jaffna peninsula. They noted that Jaffna has a huge potential to become an exciting destination for both Sri Lankan and foreign tourists. A prerequisite for this however is that travel restrictions for foreign tourists to the North must be removed.
