  1. Members. I do many imports through UPS. When you order small items less than 2 Kilos I always order through UPS then the item will come through in less than four days. Only have to inform Colombo UPS office the parcel you import by letter to Sri Lanka Customs the part is for your personal use by letter. You have to visit their Head office in Colombo office by giving all details with the Tracking number of UPS origin, which you can monitor on the web which air port the parcel after shipping is every day. I always contact the Colombo Air port UPS Office and contact the officers who handle imports to inform the details of the parcel and request them to clear same early. UPS is expensive but less headaches. Sylvester Wijesinghe. Sylvi.

  3. Members, I have uploaded few pictures of an Exercise machine fabricated by one of my worker for myself. The machine is working on 230 Volts AC. I can adjust voltage to give different vibrations. I get on to the vibration table for about 15 Minuts daily. Cost of the above machine was Rupees about 15000/00 with the motor. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  4. Members, One old member in A/l visited my work shop, until my workers were doing his work we were discussing about A/L. He informs me that he came to know me and about my service about 8 years ago through A/L. Today many have shifted to Face book due to that A/L posts are not like few years back. Then any motor vehicle problem many got advice, also recommended good Automobile service providers. At present many new members discus about how to buy a vehicle and their costs. He informs me that face book any vehicle problem can be solved with the groups who advice them. I do not know this is true or not. I have joined only to Suzuki Avery group I get posts about more Avery vehicles are for sale. Like to know members comments. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  5. Alan Miles, Please pardon me asking this question, do you have any fuel problem or any other related problem in your vehicle. If you explain the reason for tuning, will be able to help. Some where close to Colombo. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  6. mazdaspeed, I totally agree wit you, that we have to do a complete change of our education system. Our old school people who had extra money always wanted for their children to study in good schools in Colombo and live in Sri Lanka, but the younger generation after 1950 wanted to get out of our paradise country and live in effluent countries. To be third class Citizens. In 1950 to early 1960 era we had all benefits to get out of this country the young people who went out of this country, with their parents money to effluent countries was a paradise for them. They got all material benefits but not the love from their Nabors like when there is a problem to you in SL, close Relations Friends and Nabors will always be with you. I write above what I had experienced in late 1950. I was allowed by my parents to go with a basic education. There was no direct Flights had to take the sea route, was cheap and enjoyable. My late father had arranged a technical education for me. As young boy I liked that and I am still a blue caller worker. Not only that I had a ready made workshop of my late father's to come and work in Sri Lanka. Today if young boy get out with a basic education, have to start work in hotel or on a difficult work sites. Mostly because of Rupee depreciation even the parents cannot support them till they settle down. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  7. Members, Long years ago there was a M/s, Metro industries in Negambo Kochikade. They started manufacturing some ball joints for German cars, during that time in a big way, also they did plenty of agriculture implements to our local industry. They were doing very well. Then the owner passed away, he had two sons. One was Electronics highly qualified person. He never wanted to carry on the Father's business. He wants to live in USA with AT&T. Younger chap (Second Boy) did not like the Sri Lankan way of living he sold all Machines (about 40 automatic CNC machines) with the land and went off to Australia With his family. There was another motor vehicle importer got a land in Ekala industrial estate wanted to go for small Chinese vehicles assembling in Sri Lanka small petrol vans like Suzuki Every and single rear wheel small Diesel vans for our local requirements. I do not know what happened to that. Every one wants to do business but our local labor is the most difficult to satisfy. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  8. Mr. Kavvz, Thank you for comment about my hair style. About 40 years back my hair started to become gray I went on for some time like that way. Then my sister was living with me she was spinster, completely had gray hairs by her age of about 35 years of her age, she started applying various hair dyes. One day when she got up in the morning her face had a swelling, did not take any action for that by evening she was looking like a Chinese with her face had changed completely. She faced a big problem cannot come out, we had good friend Doctor called him. He visited in the evening after work my sister was shy to inform the story, any how she came out Doctor was unable to recognize her. He at once put her on some allergy tablets and Calamine lotion to be applied three to four times a day. that treatment took about six days for my sister to come back to normal. Our friend Doctor recommended a very expensive hair dye, till about 75 years she used to apply that then she slowly gave up in about a year and she expired at 84 years. When she expired she was completely gray. That was a lesson for me, never to apply any dye on hair. I was taking very shot hair cuts later I completely used to get my head a shave. Now I am 78+ years old by 31st December I will be coming to my 79th year. Do not now when the final call will come. We all Have to expect for that. I am a very happy person for my past. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  9. Members, I changed my profile picture because the picture was about 10 years old, therefore I uploded anew picture of mine. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  10. Members, First of all I have to thank member Mr. Kavaas for following my POSTS to A/L. I am ok at present I got my Cataract operated left Eye Laser treatment done because the Eye vison was getting little blurred, therefore I visited my Surgeon who did the operation and he took me to a separate room within a minute he did the Laser treatment I was OK. About Colombo 02 Property where De Soysa Building adjoining road there are two buildings left, because the owners are not satisfied with the compensation what the UDA had offered. One building owner Mr. Asgar Moosajee visited me few days back and told his story. He and the Tyrel shop owner wants more for their buildings. Todays value, not the cost when they build the buildings. Therefore they cannot develop that road. Will write more later. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
  11. Mr. kavvs. My long delay in reply was I was not feeling in good health, I used to log in to A/L on and of not regularly. Yesterday I came to know that building is completely demolished and I was unable to get any more information about same. Sylvester Wijesinghe Sylvi.
