The volatile political situation in Sri Lanka means that the tourism industry fluctuates and Bruno is often not able to work for lack of tourists.

I have been mentoring Bruno since 2005 to help him realise his dream of buying a building and setting up a business in his home town of Haputale in the hills of Sri Lanka. Our mentoring has included giving advice on business planning and the practicalities of running a small business, a small business loan to help Bruno secure the premises and the collection of some computer bits, pieces and software to help him get started.

In October 2007, Bruno proudly opened the JBS Liu Computer Centre in Haputale, Sri Lanka
