Sri Lanka's Bargain Market of Bandarawela

  • ■ SRI LANKA, BANDARAWELA: After the rock bottom prices at the Haputale market shopping spree I knew it was impossible to find cheaper goods in the city of Bandarawela. But after the street barber rejected me for a shave I had some time to spare before my bus back to Ella.
    So I decided to go for yet another mega bargain hunt trip at the largest market in this part of Sri Lanka: Bandarawela Market.
    As usual I met quite a few characters. None as wild as the now legendary 'Yes Man of Haputale', but one did come close: The Bandarawela Market Playah, who proudly (and unapologetically) was parading around with what others described as: NOT his wife!

    """"Bandarawela News at Nine""""
    The local winner of five separate lotteries still claims that the tickets were all bought by a white man. We are getting reports that this outrageous claim might be supported by other witnesses. Many have come forth with tales of the wandering white man... these tales go from the somewhat mundane to the unbelievable. He purchased a spoon and carried it like a scepter of a monarch; which, when coupled with ornamentation that he purchased and wore (a cap worn backwards negating all benefits of sun blocking as well as a peace sign necklace) has caused many locals to believe he was insane and saw himself as a conquering invader who was now espousing peace. He even seemed concerned with a man's wife at home while he purchased goods for his girlfriend in the market and then wanted to play a game in which the philanderer would be a primary player. The final report was a man selling bags who, after selling one to the obviously insane man, received the unofficial title of ambassador and wears the monarch's crown to this day. We will keep you updated...

    The reason I respect what you do is this; I spent a two week holiday in Jamaica, and even though the people seemingly had nothing, they were so so happy. So helpful, and so uplifting, on day 5 of my stay we had a cat 5 hurricane and the whole place was wiped out, not the hotels, but the local residencies. I spent 6 days helping out chopping up trees, and moving rubble. The guy I was helping was named Oliver, he worked at the Wyndham rose hall resort, what I didn't understand was that even though his home was destroyed, here he was working, so I asked him, and he said he was working to earn money to build a new home. My heart stopped, and I realised what privilege is. He invited me to meet his family, and I ended up giving him all my spending money for the trip, which may have been about 600gbp, he broke down and was so exhilarated. I told him it means more to you than it does to me, so take it. So yeah I totally get it. The one thing I learned was that happiness is definitely not bought.

    Thats the difference in the developing countries and the developed countries (on "its made in china") that people here is so poor that they almost forgotten the fact that sailing other countries products will eventually harm there own cultural arts which is more precious,
    They have to feed there family, they will do anything for that.
    And the people from developed countries like you sir have a different kind of mentality like giving competition to the other countries in sales there own products instead of sale the others to boost our own economy and encourage our local handicraftsman instead of bad quality finished products,
    Like you said sri lanka is good china is bad,
    You just said it but actually you encouraged the handicrafts by that 👍

      Its not just Sri Lanka man, competition has killed all sorts of traditional industries. When I was in Bosnia i spoke with stone carvers of which once there were a lot and they said they were run out of business by grave stones made in china and imported. Same story was with worked copper decorative products. In Iran I visited the bazaars which were flooded with cheap Chinese crap, knockoffs and imitations. They mentioned the same thing about their traditional crafts like carpets, silk, wood working etc. So sad.

Reuse, etc. You would fix your radio, phone, etc - because manufactured goods were expensive and food and housing were cheap. Now those items become disposable. We throw away a cell phone because it is not the newest. Last years clothes because they are not in fashuon. We'll destroy this planet real quick.
