The Tamil Pavilion

At the Tamil Pavilion, we received a warm welcome from Ambassadors Kevin Mathurainayagam, Chitra Semthinathan, Ayungaran Jeyaratnam and Dilaxshy Sivagurunathan (top photo).

As part of the cultural display, this year, there is a large wall devoted to photos taken of the tsunami which hit Sri Lanka and its aftermath. On this wall, there is mention of the local effort of the Tamil Cultural Association of Sri Lanka to raise funds for the Winnipeg Clinic established in eastern Sri Lanka to help tsunami victims in that area (second photo).

There was fine Tamil singing and elegant dancing as part of the show at the Tamil Pavilion (third to fifth photos).
