The Japanese Government has provided Rs. 68.5 million for the reconstruction of the Hikkaduwa Police Station damaged by the tsunami.
The Hikkaduwa Police Station serves nearly 38,000 people living in 33 Gramasewa Divisions.
 A three-storied building with adequate facilities and amenities to house all the required branches, such as a crime unit, a traffic branch, an administration unit, a computer room, an armory room, public lobbies, conference room facilities and a canteen will be reconstructed under this project.
A gymnasium, a reading room, and sufficient accommodation for the staff with sanitary facilities will also be reconstructed.

Reconstruction is expected to be completed by the end of December 2006. Work was officially launched on January 31 with the laying of the foundation stone by Hiroshi Karube, Deputy Head of Mission of the Embassy of Japan and Neville Wijesinghe, DIG Southern Region.
The Japanese Government is assisting in the reconstruction of six new police stations affected by the tsunami.

They are Kosgoda, Hikkaduwa and Rathgama Police Stations in Galle, Dikwella Police Station in Matara, Yala Police Station in Hambantota and Kochchuveli Police Station in Trincomalee. The Japan International Cooperation System is responsible for reconstruction and supervision of the project in collaboration with the Sri Lankan Government.

The construction of these police stations were made possible by the US$ 80 million grant
