<p>If everything goes as planned by Keraleeyam, London Olympics will get the splashing glow from the God’s own country as its inaugural function will be decorated with a demo race of the Kerala snake boats.</p>
<p>The high-flying snake boat racing teams will dress up for the event taking place in the Thames river as part of the inauguration of Canoeing and Kayaking events in White Water Canoe Centre in Broxbourne, Hertfordshire.</p>
<p>Preliminary discussions on the event was held at the House of Commons in London where Keith Vaz, Member of British Parliament was present. Keraleeyam was represented by its Vice President R. Ajith Kumar, Secretary General N.R. Harikumar, Treasurer Sarosh P. Abraham and they submitted a detailed proposal for the demo race.</p>
<p>Following theses discussions a coordination cell has been constituted at Mr. Vaz’s office in West Minister at the British Parliament. To familiarise the snake boats in London and as a pilot race of the Olympic event it has been proposed to conduct another demo race as part of the 156th Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race in July, 2010 which will have one or two snake boats. The organizing committee of the London Olympics will watch this event and final nod for the Olympics race will be given after this. </p>
<p>Keraleeyam plans to line up five major snake boats from Kerala as part of the Olympic race. These boats will be shipped to London taking 20 days of travel. A team comprising of 500 oarsmen will be flown to London to paddle these boats. “A similar event cannot be traced anywhere in the world which can showcase Kerala at its maximum potential”- told P.V.Abdul Wahab, Chairman, Global Kerala Initiative.</p>
<p>Mr. Wahab added that the project proposal of the race has been submitted to Sebastian Coe, the Chairman of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG), Kumari Shelja, Minister for Tourism, Govt. of India, Mr. M.S. Gill, Minister for Sports, Govt. of India and Dr. Shashi Tharoor, Minister of State for External Affairs, Govt. of India.</p>
<p>A proposal has been submitted to the Industries Department, Govt. of Kerala which is mulling over an investor’s meet in London in connection with this event.</p>
