    GEOGRAPHY Grade 11 (for Grade 11, commencing from 2008) Teachers' Instructional Manual Department of Social Sciences Faculty of Languages, Humanities and Social Sciences National Institute of Education Maharagama. 2008 i Geography Grade 11 Teachers’ Instructional Manual © National Institute of Education First Print in 2007 Faculty of Languages, Humanities and Social Sciences Department of Social Science National Institute of Education Printing: The Press, National Institute of Education, Maharagama. ii Forward Being the first revision of the Curriculum for the new millenium, this could be regarded as an approach to overcome a few problems in the school system existing at present. This curriculum is planned with the aim of avoiding individual and social weaknesses as well as in the way of thinking that the present day youth are confronted. When considering the system of education in Asia, Sri Lanka was in the forefront in the field of education a few years back. But at present the countries in Asia have advanced over Sri Lanka. Taking decisions based on the existing system and presenting the same repeatedly without a new vision is one reason for this backwardness. The officers of the National Institute of Education have taken courage to revise the curriculum with a new vision to overcome this situation. The objectives of the New Curriculum have been designed to enable the pupil population to develop their competencies by way of new knowledge through exploration based on their existing knowledge. A perfectly new vision in the teachers’ role is essential for this task. In place of the existing teacher-centred method, a pupil-centred method based on activities and competencies is expected from this new educa- tional process in which teachers should be prepared to face challenges.

  • Development Coordination
    Integrated Road Investment Program (RRP SRI 47273) DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION A. Major Development Partners: Strategic Foci and Key Activities 1. The Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the World Bank are the major bilateral and multilateral development partners in the road transport subsector in Sri Lanka. While both ADB and JICA give financial assistance to the government to improve national, provincial and local authority roads, the World Bank has limited its interventions to national and provincial roads. These three development partners directly coordinate their strategies and collaborate on key focus areas. However, in recent years, bilateral development partners, such as China EXIM Bank and China Development Bank are also prominent in providing assistance to the road transport subsector; coordination between them and other multilateral and bilateral development partners occurs mainly through the government. ADB, through the National Planning Department (NPD) under the Ministry of Finance and Planning and the Ministry of Highways, Ports and Shipping (MOHPS), coordinated with implementing agencies to avoid resource duplication. Coordination between ADB, JICA and the World Bank at sector and project level is as follows: (i) Sector level. With respect to institutional and capacity strengthening, a coordinated strategy is in place to focus each partner's activities: institutional capacity strengthening by ADB, strengthening the capacity of domestic contractors by JICA, and road maintenance by the World Bank. (ii) Project level. With respect to project preparation, the government has used the ADB-funded Road Project Preparatory Facility to prepare projects to be funded by ADB and other development partners.1 Both the World Bank and JICA have used the Road Project Preparatory Facility to prepare their investment projects.

It depends upon the conduct ofthe people that constitute the nation. We must recognize that the country does not mean just the lifeless soil around us. The country consists ofa conglomeration ofpeople and it is what they make ofit. To rectify the world and put it on proper path, we have to first rec­ tify ourselves and our conduct.... At the present time, when we see all over the country confusion, fear and anxiety, each one in every home must con­ ., tribute his share ofcool, calm love to suppress the anger and fury. No governmental authority can sup­ press it as effectively and as quickly as you can by love and brotherliness.

  • 2014 Human Rights Report
    SRI LANKA 2014 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Sri Lanka is a constitutional, multi-party republic. Votes re-elected President Mahinda Rajapaksa to a second six-year term in 2010. Parliament, elected in 2010, shares constitutional power with the president. President Rajapaksa’s family dominated government. Two of President Rajapaksa’s brothers held key executive branch posts, as defense secretary and economic development minister, and a third brother was the speaker of Parliament. A large number of the President Rajapaksa’s other relatives, including his son, also served in important political and diplomatic positions. Independent observers generally characterized the presidential, parliamentary, and local elections as problematic. The 2010 elections were fraught with election law abuses by all major parties, especially the governing coalition’s use of state resources for its own advantage. Authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. The major human rights problems reported over the year were: attacks on, and harassment of, civil society activists, journalists, and persons viewed as sympathizers of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) by individuals allegedly tied to the government; involuntary disappearances, arbitrary arrest and detention, torture, abuse of detainees, rape, and other forms of sexual and gender- based violence committed by police and security forces; and widespread impunity for a broad range of human rights abuses. Involuntary disappearances and unlawful killings continued to diminish in comparison with the immediate postwar period. Nevertheless, harassment, threats, and attacks by progovernment loyalists against media institutions, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and critics of the government were prevalent, contributing to widespread fear and self- censorship by journalists and diminished democratic activity due to the general failure to prosecute perpetrators.
