Program 1:‚  Kandy/Peradeniya: Brain-storming Workshop on “Engineering Solutions” to overcome the CKD;‚ Wednesday, November‚ 20th‚ (9.00 AM to 12.30 PM), senate house auditorium, University of Peradeniya. ‚ We welcome your participation and contributions‚ (please see the attached flyer for details;‚ RSVP -‚ kanchana.huy@gmail.com).

    Can someone please explain to me why only the North Central province, part of North Western province and Uva province are affected by CKD. There is heavy use of fertilizers in the upcountry tea areas and vegetable yet it has no CKD. To remove the heavy metals the only sure way is reverse osmosis. We should set up reverse osmosis units to purify the water and supply it to all the people in these areas to drink. It was also found that farmers who work in the paddy field soil containing Arsenic and other heavy metals absorb these materials through the skin. In Japan the farmers wear goulashes and gloves when working in the field. In the heat of Sri Lanka it may be difficult.
    This matter should have been discussed at the CHOGM meeting.
