the Trincomalee Oil Tank Complex
They wanted to allow the Nuwara Eliya Post Office to crumble down in the same manner they allowed the oil tanks to corrode and crumble
The establishment of a university in Nuwara Eliya is also a part of the same Development plan

If we allocated that building for the tourism industry at the right time, we still have that historic landmark building
