 | The government has grown increasingly cagey about how it will spend
money being sent to the Indian Ocean island by countries, companies and
private citizens moved by wrenching images of the Dec. 26 catastrophe
in which more than 38,000 Sri Lankans died.

watchdogs are concerned that aid could be sunk into ambitious new
projects, squandered through political posturing or simply squirreled
away by corrupt officials.
