Limited Free Speech in Sri Lanka

A email sent from the largest group of Sri Lankan NGO's is communicating that we all need to very careful with anything emailed, posted on the website and communicated to others. This means we cannot communicate some of the serious isses here that we find are not being expressed properly or correctly to our supporters, friends and family in the US and abroad, we hope you understand this problem.

On the request of other NGO's who are forced to do the same, "Until further notice and more specific information has been given regarding what can and cannot be said -we will not and can not mention, describe, document, archive, photograph or comment on what the Sri Lankan government is or is not doing here.".
