Crisis in Sri Lanka Please be informed that most social media have now been blocked and are inaccessible. Therefore Facebook, What’s Up, Instagram and Twitter as well as the BBC etc. Are no longer available on our island right now. This is in reaction today’s bomb explosions And to stop rumors.Anyone feeling unsafe, anywhere, is invited to come to Arugam Bay. Where the Community and some hotels will provide FREE rooms. To anyone who requires comfort and shelter (Plenty of free rooms are available)
Fact seems to be, that 5 Star Hotels and Christian Churches are the main target: There are NONE of those in AbaY We just don’t have a church, and No Big Hotel. Also, the only and single road in & out of Arugam Is very easy to control.
So it is realistic to assume, that Arugam Bay is a very safe destination.
History, in all those terrible war years have shown just that Nobody has an interest (so far) to blast a few surfers and pot smokers…
This is a fact.This is NOT a tourist promotion, Nor does this post have any financial motive! But it’s a useful information And an invitation to anyone feeling unsafe elsewhere.
The Community welcomes you.
And money is not an issue at all.
