Pray for Peace

Arugam.info regrets to inform that there will be No Two Year Rememberance Celebrations this Christmas, as planned.
The traditional Christian Midnight Mass was also cancelled last night.
There are, simply, NO people in town.
In fact we are advised that in the past 30 Years or so it has never been as quiet at any time.

The weather is actually fine, although there is rain all around the famous Bay.
A few local surfers have been seen in the Bay - that’s all.

The photo above shows this years Best Surf Photo, taken by Cc Philip.
It shows our mood, too: We take it all lying down and in our stride.

However we are pleased to be informed that the following places are open:
Beach Hut, Stardust, Tri Star, Hideaway and the Siam View Hotel.

The SVH wishes to advise that there will be a small staff party on Christmas day as well as New Year’s Eve:
Everyone in need of a bit of friendly Company, traditional Free food or Entertainment is said to be warmly invited to attend.

A very Happy Christmas and a much more Peaceful New Year 2007 is what we pray for!

    Hi dear SVH
    I wish you a happy new year, hope for peace and be sure there is a small home in a quiet and preserved country where your friends think to you all so much.
