The Ambassador’s initial interview generated much public interest in Sri Lanka’s conflict, as comments and e-mails sent to WCCA TV13 indicate. Says one viewer, “I had no idea of the true gravity of the subject, but after listening to the Ambassador, I got new perspective.” Another e-mail says, “I found the whole subject to be very fascinating, and I’ve seen only few movies that address them.”
