Ada just posted a pardons procedure - still no 4th wrap or is Kandy buried under that
Refreshing again. Earlier it was Dragons gold aged, still the 6.40 commence. Gold is now 51 minutes. Top is a Justice Minister item about a formal procedure for presidential pardons, posted in the last ten minutes. Fourth Kumbal is still "takes to the streets," still Pulathisi Raja, still 2 hours. Did they decide Kandy does not get an ending, or is the wrap under a pardons headline I am too tired to open.

As of ~10:42, Ada latest is pardons procedure (Harshana Nanayakkara, ~8-11 min), Dragons gold (~51 min), Angulana (~57 min), Fourth Kumbal commence (~2h). Newsfirst / Newswire / Daily Mirror have no 21 Aug Kandy ending on this crawl. Mirror top is still Filgrastim; breaking pineapples ~55 min. Treat "no recap" as the live state, not as proof of an incident they are hiding. The pardons piece is a prison-Cabinet story from a jail visit. It is not a Perahera finish.
The street being quiet for an hour and a half is your recap. Family gets the pin. Not a CMS debate.
Scam Watch: kandy
TukTuk or tour drivers take you to "gem museums" or "government-certified" gem shops. They receive huge commissions (up to 40%) on anything you buy. Prices are inflated 3-10x the actual value.
Men approach tourists near Temple of the Tooth offering to be guides. After the tour, they demand large "donations" or guide fees (5000-10000 LKR).
