Today Luxman Siriwardena has reached the stage of life where he will renounce his possessions and live in the forest. He is travelling to the Weliara jungle with only his loincloth. Please leave comments in lieu of alms.
Yes, Luxman has lived a full and rewarding life; he has given happiness to many people. We wish him the very best in his meditative endeavors, though we have some concerns about the other monks in Weliara. When we travel to Weliara in a month with alms, we will take with us a whole box of ear plugs.

Dear Luxman,

A year older and a year wiser…(!!??!!!) the alms giving at Wadiya was much appreciated!….may your meditative endeavours on the intricacies of balancing “boats” and “stars” render much success!
This report is one of the final outputs of an IDRC-funded project to 1) understand election influence operations and measures to counter disinformation globally, especially pertaining to Asia; 2) map actors who are involved in election-related counter-disinformation actions in five countries in South and Southeast Asia, and 3) document their past and upcoming activities related to countering disinformation around elections. This research report was intended to lay the groundwork for a network of actors systematically working towards countering disinformation related to elections in Vietnam and document the impact of their actions.
LIRNEasia is pleased to announce the opening of applications for our online training programme on Data Governance in South and Southeast Asia. Theme: Influencing data governance policy in South and Southeast Asia Dates: 10th and 11th December 2024.
