The end of the quarter-century conflict has scattered⁵ 300,000 Tamils. More than two-thirds of them are at a sprawling⁶ displacement⁷ camp called Manik Farm. The Secretary-General on a tour of it (Saturday) said it was clear Sri Lanka does not have adequate resources to handle the situation alone. He said such a huge challenge could only be adequately confronted with help from the international community.
长达25年的冲突结束时，30万泰米尔人已经四处流散，他们中的三分之二以上目前住在一个叫做曼尼克农场的占地面积很大的难民营里。联合国秘书长潘基文星期六在视察时说，很清楚，斯里兰卡政府没有足够的资源独自处理这样的局面。他说，恐怕只能在国际社会的帮助下，斯里兰卡才有充分能力面对如此巨大的挑战。
In one of the camp's tents, the Secretary General visited a girl with wounds to both her legs. She had been hit by shrapnel and arrived in the camp five days earlier. She says there is no medical facility in the camp for her surgery and she cannot even get pain pills. Mr. Ban told her he hopes she will be able to walk soon and to go to school.

At a neighboring tent he met another family, which had survived shelling by hiding in bunkers. The Secretary General promised them they would be able to return home. "Before then we'll provide the food, water, sanitation⁸, medicines and schools. So, have great courage and great hope for the better future," he said.

The Secretary-General did not stop at the temporary home of a school teacher, who identified himself as Kumar. His mother and sister died in the family's escape from the combat zone.

The people, they're suffering," he said.
