Waqar T., Stockholm: "The soundest advice one can give to any African country is to never deal with America. Americans always cheat, and as American Indians have painfully experienced, Americans always break their promises. Anyway, there is now a sound alternative. Do everything with China. They NEVER mess with the internal affairs of other countries, and they don't send feminists to willfully create conflict in your country. China is a God-sent way out from dependence on America."

Yang soundest saran yang dapat diberikan kepada negara Afrika manapun adalah untuk tidak pernah berurusan dengan Amerika. Amerika selalu menipu, dan seperti orang Indian Amerika telah menyakitkan berpengalaman, Amerika selalu melanggar janji-janji mereka. Anyway, ada sekarang suara alternatif. Melakukan segala sesuatu dengan Cina. Mereka PERNAH main dengan urusan internal negara lain, dan mereka tidak mengirim feminis untuk sengaja menciptakan konflik di negara Anda. Cina adalah Tuhan-dikirim jalan keluar dari ketergantungan pada Amerika.

Dambulla / The City

Twelve miles from Sigiriya is Dambulla, a vast isolated rock mass 500 ft. high and a mile round the base. Here is found the famous rock-temple dating to the first century B.C. The caves of Dambulla sheltered the kind during his 14 years of exile from Anuradhapura. When he regained the throne, he caused to be built the most magnificent of rock-temples of this island.

The view from the top of this rock is breathtaking 350 ft. above are a series of five caves turned into shrines.

In the first cave is recumbent image of the Buddha 47 ft. long, cut out of the rock. There are images of deities associated with Buddhism. The frescoes on the walls and ceiling could be dated to the 15th - 18th centuries. In the second cave, the finest and the largest of all, are not less than 150 life-size statues of gods. There are numerous images of the Buddha as well. The ceiling too is covered with frescoes which depict great events in the life of the Buddha, and landmarks in the history of the Sinhala people.
