Once Mr. Ravana held a chief administrator post of an important buddhist instituition in Kandy.

One day a group of foreign delegates visited this historic place and met Mr. Ravana and they had short discussion.

So,.. Mr. Ravana had to say " when Japanese bombing Colombo harbour in 1942 ".....But he pronounced the word "bombing" (B O M B I N G ) wrongly.One of his friends whispered " Mr Ravana,, B is silent" But there were two B s, so he corrected that sentence like ..." when Japanese ombing Colombo harbour in 1942".........
