Jaffna’s experience of the CFA occurred above ground level and was more visible: it took the form of a steady streamlet of tourists from Colombo. On their return they could give ‘first-hand accounts’ of how nice the LTTE had been to them, of the (low) price of rice & curry, what bargains there were on red-onions, chillies, murunga, mango, potato, jewellery, and, of course, of bullet-ridden buildings, of roadways damaged and deserted, of the general picture of devastation of her physical infrastructure, and of what a hassle-less trip it had been. |
