  • St. John's College Magazine
    St. John’s College Magazine Digitized Version of the College Magazine 1905 Converted into Editable Format (MS Word) By Christie. A. Pararajasingam March towards the Bicentennial At the beginning of the year that marked the 195th anniversary of the College, the Principal called upon all the students, staff, parents and well-wishers to join in the march towards the College’sbicentennial. I decided to join the ‘army’ in my own little way. I thought of initiating the process of digitizing and converting all the magazines in the College library into MS Word or other Editable Formats, with the following objectives in mind: To preserve the historic books in the College library for generations to come. To enable the Management and Editors interested to easily search what they are looking for. To enable stakeholders like Old Boys to quickly access the information that they require. To make images easy to extract and reuse. This can’t be done with a PDF, because its images are embedded. To easily edit large areas of text. To make the magazines in the library easily accessible to everyone by uploading them on the internet The oldest magazine in the library, published in 1905 appeared to be the best place to begin work on. The task was much harder than expected, taking more than 50 hours of man hours. Though cumbersome, the walk down memory lane I took, proved to be very informative and enjoyable. I invite you too, to take this walk. Happy reading! Christie A Pararajasingam St. John’s College Magazine 1905 ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE A BRIEF SKETCH OF ITS HISTORY St.

  • Human Rights in Sri Lanka, an Update 2 News from Asia Watch
    March 12, 1991 HUMAN RIGHTS IN SRI LANKA AN UPDATE Introduction As the killing of Deputy Defense Minister Ranjan Wijeratne on March 2, 1991 underscores, the Sri Lankan human rights situation is marked by lawlessness on all sides.1 Wijeratne, who ran an often brutal government campaign against Tamil separatists, was killed together with 18 others in a car bomb explosion in Sri Lanka's capital, Colombo. It was not immediately clear which of the several parties with grievances against the minister was responsible. Those parties include militant groups such as the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), a radical Sinhalese nationalist insurgency operating in the south of the country, and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE, also known as the Tamil Tigers), the largest of numerous armed Tamil guerrilla groups fighting for an independent state in the northeast. All have committed atrocities in the course of the civil war. The government, for its part, has directly contributed to the violence by supporting, training and arming groups with a history of abuses against civilians, sometimes supporting two or more rival factions against each other, sometimes encouraging the formation of death squads composed of members of the security forces. It has engaged in a series of purges of suspected sympathizers of the various guerrilla groups, involving mass arrests, disappearances and extrajudicial executions. The top leaders of the JVP, responsible for thousands of killings in 1988-89 of government officials, members of the security forces and citizens believed to be working with them, were shot dead while in custody in late 1989. In August 1990, after a new round of fighting between government forces and Tamil guerrillas broke out, Wijeratne told the Sri Lankan Parliament, "Just as we dealt with the JVP, the scum of the South, we shall deal with this scum of the North.
