A sight for coconut-starved Lankans:The Coconut Development Board once in away organises a lorryload of nuts to be distributed among people at a slightly cheaper rate than the going price. Here, people are seen making their payments, getting a receipt and then collecting their nuts from a lorry on Deans Road in Maradana. Pic by Nilan Maligaspe
