WITH the end of fighting between Government forces and rebel Tamil fighters in Sri Lanka, it would be easy for us to forget about the ongoing human tragedy there and for us to think that the Sri Lankans’ troubles are over.
But our reports from ACN News (page 6) and on a presentation given in Brisbane by Dr Brian Senewiratne and Dominican Father Pan Jordan (page 9) tell us otherwise.
With tens of thousands of people killed and injured in the last days of the battle, and an estimated 500,000 people being held in refugee camps, recovery will take a long time and require a great deal of help from the rest of the world.
We can help by donating to Caritas Australia or Aid to the Church in Need.
