A Textbook Sri Lankan
A government textbook featuring me dressed as Mahinda
Kids have been telling me they saw me in a textbook. I didn’t believe this till a friend sent me a photograph. So my photo is in some government textbook as an illustration of South Asian races. Only thing is that in the particular photo I happen to be dressed as Mahinda Rajapakse. And it’s not actually national dress, it’s a Hameedia’s kurta and a woman’s scarf. It’s funny cause this particular outfit got me banned from the Colombo Rowing Club for life, and the photo is from that night. What are the schools coming to nowadays.
LOL .. indi
WTF?

I think they liked your new spin on the national dress.
