As India once again turns to the seas in her quest to emerge as a resurgent maritime nation, the environment in the Indian Ocean Region, and the larger Indo-Pacific, is characterised by an unusual complexity. At the National Maritime Foundation (NMF), we seek to unravel and understand the multiple threads that run across our maritime neighbourhood, with a view to promoting the continued constructive and peaceful use of the maritime domain. The NMF’s ever-growing community of contributors, write on strategic maritime issues, and analyse the implications of larger geopolitical game plays in the Indo- Pacific Region, which has emerged as the world’s centre of gravity in the maritime domain. This is manifested in numerous Commentaries, Issue Briefs and Policy Briefs, and Reports on the many dialogues and discussions that we participate in, throughout the year. ‘Maritime Perspectives’ collates the best of these contributions, aiming to review the challenges and opportunities, and fill as many spaces in the large maritime jigsaw puzzle in the region and beyond. In consonance with India’s sustained maritime reach, the NMF is also constantly seeking to expand its horizons, through collaborative efforts with partners all over the world, and in seeking academic contributions from varied sources. The 2017 edition of ‘Maritime Perspectives’, is an apt representation of this aspect, and I am confident that it will contribute immensely to our understanding of the many developments, the inferences therein, and their impact across the global commons.

  • Conceptualizing the Blue Frontier: the Great Qing and the Maritime World
    Conceptualizing the Blue Frontier: The Great Qing and the Maritime World in the Long Eighteenth Century Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultüt der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Vorgelegt von Chung-yam PO Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Harald Fuess Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Joachim Kurtz Datum: 28 June 2013 Table of Contents Abstract 2 Acknowledgments 3 Emperors of the Qing Dynasty 5 Map of China Coast 6 Introduction 7 Chapter 1 Setting the Scene 43 Chapter 2 Modeling the Sea Space 62 Chapter 3 The Dragon Navy 109 Chapter 4 Maritime Customs Office 160 Chapter 5 Writing the Waves 210 Conclusion 247 Glossary 255 Bibliography 257 1 Abstract Most previous scholarship has asserted that the Qing Empire neglected the sea and underestimated the worldwide rise of Western powers in the long eighteenth century. By the time the British crushed the Chinese navy in the so-called Opium Wars, the country and its government were in a state of shock and incapable of quickly catching-up with Western Europe. In contrast with such a narrative, this dissertation shows that the Great Qing was in fact far more aware of global trends than has been commonly assumed. Against the backdrop of the long eighteenth century, the author explores the fundamental historical notions of the Chinese maritime world as a conceptual divide between an inner and an outer sea, whereby administrators, merchants, and intellectuals paid close and intense attention to coastal seawaters. Drawing on archival sources from China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and the West, the author argues that the connection between the Great Qing and the maritime world was complex and sophisticated.

My intention is to divide it into a number of Volumes such as 'Hela Derana Vaga' (the story of the land of the Sinhalese-Helese), Hela Avurudu Vaga (the story of the Hela New Year), Hela Gam Nam Vaga (the story of the village names of the Helese), Hela Dev Vaga (the story of the Hela Gods), Hela Bas Vaga (the story of the Hela Language), Rukliya Vaga (the story of the trees and creepers) Sat Vaga (the story of animals), Siruru Vaga (the story of the human body), Do Satara Vaga (the story of Astrology) Keli Vaga (the story of our games) Na Siya Vaga (the story of relationships). Hela Derana Vaga is the first in that series. Since it is bulky in terms of facts and size, I thought of having it published as a separate book.

    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.

  • Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times
    Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times Justin Siefert PhD 2016 Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times Justin Siefert A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History, Politics and Philosophy Manchester Metropolitan University 2016 Abstract: The thesis argues that the telephone had a significant impact upon colonial society in Sri Lanka. In the emergence and expansion of a telephone network two phases can be distinguished: in the first phase (1880-1914), the government began to construct telephone networks in Colombo and other major towns, and built trunk lines between them. Simultaneously, planters began to establish and run local telephone networks in the planting districts. In this initial period, Sri Lanka’s emerging telephone network owed its construction, financing and running mostly to the planting community. The telephone was a ‘tool of the Empire’ only in the sense that the government eventually joined forces with the influential planting and commercial communities, including many members of the indigenous elite, who had demanded telephone services for their own purposes. However, during the second phase (1919-1939), as more and more telephone networks emerged in the planting districts, government became more proactive in the construction of an island-wide telephone network, which then reflected colonial hierarchies and power structures. Finally in 1935, Sri Lanka was connected to the Empire’s international telephone network. One of the core challenges for this pioneer work is of methodological nature: a telephone call leaves no written or oral source behind.
