My father works for an NGO and the relief supply they sent to east were stopped by the police and redirected to a different area, but last minute they manage to call up a minister and things were sorted out. However now it seems like its happening in
large scale. I really hope these reports are not true because when the country is uniting for one cause, it would be really sad if things to this nature spoil that sprit.
Update:
Today I heard more sad news as LTTE also have seems redirected some of the relief efforts going towards east to Mullaithivu.
However a group of Sinhalese people have carried the relief efforts, some 6 KM in the east so that it could reach some villages where the roads have been damaged so badly that the vehicles can't get through to those areas. There is always hope and hope is all we have.
