An Unknown Businessman Invests One Billion Dollars in Sri Lanka

Sri Lankan Minister of Finance Ravi Karunanayake revealed to The Reuters news that an a person who would not like to reveal his name invested one billion dollars in Sri Lanka. The minister further explained that this was allowed to preserve the value of Lankan Rupee. These days the value of the Rupee is in a critical situation.

The Economic specialist highly criticized this fact. Their argument was letting a single person to invest such a big money inside a country is dangerous. Those mostly can be black money. If this would happen, all the good positive investors would also take back their money. This was also happened in Thailand once. The fact of the person who invested money was hiding his name was even more suspicious.

According to my opinion these kind of short term easy methods would not help to develop a poor country like Sri Lanka. The whole video news can be watched on Swarnawahini live at 7 news broadcasting program.

History of the Christmas tree and Santa Claus

Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.  However, It is difficult to forget generous the Christmas tree and St. Nicholas which mingles with Christmas festival. St. Nicholas put gold coins in his devotees shoes that left in front of his church. So, Tharunaya Christmas celebration committee has decided to acknowledge you about the origin of Christmas tree. He also offered wealth and goods for the poor people and children on every 25th of December. He died in 6th of December. Catholic, Protestant Dissenters such as Christian people began celebrating 6th of December every year to honour St. Nicholas’ great generosity towards the miserable people.   

The popular Christmas symbol Christmas tree was a concept of a Church in Germany. Every German child used to decorate a Christmas tree on 5th of December and hung their socks at fireplace.  They believed that Santa the ghost of St. Nicholas would come while they were sleeping and fill their socks with lots of sweets.   Sometimes persons dressed as Santa and distribute sweets in front of schools and kindergartens. The situation changed after the rise of the voice of German priest Martin Luther. He declared that the Christmas celebration should spare to celebrate God Jesus’ birthdays without giving priority to celebrate the death of St. Nicholas. So, the Santa’s festival was delayed until 25th of December. He made an immense attempt to discourage people celebrating St. Nicholas’ death by introducing immunity amendments in the end of 16th century.  

This plays a character known to offer gifts to the children. Jesus Christ, which would most similarity to a baby infant stage represents the character called the Christ child bring meaning. It was a baby Angel who offers gifts to the poor children.   Some Churches in Germany got paintings of baby Christ close to the statues of Jesus Christ.  Parents kept presents under the decorated Christmas Tree Early in the Christmas morning and said that it was kept by baby Christ. And then, they ring a bell secretly to convey the exit of baby Christ to their kids.  As a continuation of this concept, a girl was chosen to symbolize baby Christ in Nuremberg street market place in Germany.   So, it conveys to German kids that not only Santa but there is some other characters bring gifts for them.  

The Christmas tree was firstly introduced by Germany as a symbol of Christmas. The Christmas tree usually decorated with glittering ornaments on the morning of 24th of December.   The children cannot enter the room where the Christmas tree is placed until their father light the candles and ring a bell on the Christmas day. We can see some families sing Christmas Carol sitting around the Christmas tree.  We hope you enjoy and add an extra knowledge from this article. We wishes you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
