Enclosed herewith please find an inspiring story regarding Kusum Vyas that appeared in Indo-American News of Houston

(http://www.indoamerican-news.com/Stories/121908/KusumVyas.html)

, UN News and many other international newspapers. Some Sri Lankan newspapers gave front-page coverage to her campaign. For your information a few of the links are posted at the end of this message.

Kusum Vyas is endowed with an exceptional caliber and indomitable willpower.  She has dedicated her life to the cause of Dharma and used her determination and force of character and personal resources to put her cause on the international stage.

 

It was due to her relentless efforts that an unprecedented international meeting calling for the Gulf of Mannar to be designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site was held at the historic Linnean Society of London from 25 – 26 November 2008.

 

Finally, Kusum Vyas’ unstinted efforts and global quest secured the nomination for Gulf of Mannar as an International Sacred Site.

 

Congratulations to Kusum Vyas for her dedication, hard work and unwavering resolve!
