In this part of the world, language is everything. Language is communication, language is commerce, language is politics, language is recreation and pretty much everything else. The language is Tamil. I am totally surprise to see the passion that the people here have for their native language. They also share a strong sense of brotherhood for all the Tamil speaking people around the country world.To reflect their love for the language, a World Classical Tamil Conference (Ulaga Thamizh Semmozhi Manadu) is being conducted, this time in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India from June 23rd to 27th, 2010. It is an opportunity for one and all to learn and exhibit their knowledge of the language and see for themselves the various forms that the language has taken from time immemorial. I personally feel guilty and sad because i could not join the conference there. If i had a chance, i would have definitely be there right now!
