A foreign donor is interested in constructing an Olympic-standard aquatic sports complex and requested the Policy Development Office of the Prime Minister’s Office to find a suitable location in Jaffna.

The Jaffna Government Agent has recommended certain lands for this purpose. After inspection, the land belonging to the Manipay Pradeshiya Sabha, the Sellamuthu Playground, has been selected as suitable.

After negotiations with the Manipay Pradeshiya Sabha, it was proposed by the donor that the aquatic complex should be managed by Foundation of Goodness, a non-profit NGO which is managing a donor-supported aquatic complex in Seenigama. A delegation of 33 members, including the Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman, will be visiting the Seenigama Aquatic Complex on 16 March to experience and understand the concept and success factors behind it to make this dream a reality.
