This morning our team, the Sri Lankan team, DG Nalin and GSE Coordinator Ari visited the US Embassy in Colombo and met US Ambassador Robert Blake. A frequent speaker at Rotary Clubs, Mr. Blake was interested to hear about our GSE program. He is from Bethesda, MD so he is quite familiar with our district. Mr. Blake then gave a brief overview of the function of the Embassy and also spoke to the Embassy's role in assisting with a political solution to Sri Lanka's civil conflict.
(I'm slightly out of order here ... the visit to the US Embassy was before lunch at GOH.)
