Maligawa gets new lighting
As all eyes shift to Kandy for the Esala perahera, a new lighting system
will illuminate the historic Dalada Maligawa.
Designed jointly by Hayleys Electronics (Lighting) Ltd. and Philips of
Holland, the special lighting which includes the world's smallest floodlights
created especially for the Maligawa and state-of-the art fibre-optic systems
(pictured right above) is a gift from the two companies.
The lighting system is valued at Rs. 8 million and was inaugurated on Sunday
by President Chandrika Kumaratunga.
