Elephant dung paper is a very lucrative business; so is Pinawela and the tourists are falling daily into the cash trap. Nothing however goes to where it is needed: To compensate the farmers, for example. Violence sadly is the way Sri Lankans seem to settle any dispute these days. Little wonder; 30 years have taught us nothing else.
