If that is here choice then why not…? .LOL!

I advocated freedom to do whatever you want. Just take responsibility for the consequences of your actions, ..that’s all.

Don’t sit here criticizing Sri Lanka, when we all know why we a re lagging behind economically. It is obvious the more Resolved and Patriotic citizens of Sri Lanka will have to Fix this mess while Nay-Sayers sit there on their High Chairs Pontificating and assigning Blame for Sri Lanka’s Short comings. That’s the difference between those of us who care and the rest of the HERD like you. Nothing will ever be good enough for you and you certainly will never raise a finger to fix it yourselves. Like the Servant Mentality you have had engraved into your skulls you will always wait for someone else to tell you what to do.

Suresh, If you want to debate me please do so using some form of logical argument, try using sentences that articulate your point(s), address what I say then counter it with some examples, or cite some sources,…. this way people will not continue to think of you as a Tireless Parrot of LTTE Talking Points.

It is not difficult to understand that Tamils want their homeland back, and wanted the occupying Sinhala forces to go home. Leave us alone in our homes. Fifty thousand Sinhala forces are maintaining an open prison in Jaffna

The true irony being that these Tamils who advocate Ethnic Segregation in Sri Lanka all hold Foreign passports in Unitary Western Countries and they make no such unreasonable demands on these countries to which they hold citizenship?

This had been the history of the island since 1948.History always repeats itself. Here we are again. No internal solution would ever be forthcoming. Foreign intervention is important if we want peace through justice.

We should ask Britain to put things in order. They failed in their responsibilty to do justice. At least after 36 years they should work for justice.

Forth perspective is separation ??

So, again good people , please get involved. Journalism is tainted by embedding and by becoming advocates of political parties and even the mouth pieces of generals. So, it is real involvement by good people that we can expect changes. Once elected these old guards represent no one, except themselves and continue only to plunder the nation..adding to her woes and pains.

The successive governments that ruled the country were unable to properly implement the provisions of the Amendment because they were not sincere. When there is an unlimited power in the hands of the President with a false and baseless imagination of Federalism, this will eventually led to the deterioration of the stability of the country. It is only a question of powers between the Provinces and the Central Government. Why cannot the leaders look at the Constitutions of USA, India and Canada. The Canadian Constitutional model looks so promising that the Constitution classified two Heads of Powers between the Central Government and the Provincial Governments. If this can be done the limitations imposed with regard to police powers and the power over lands can be resolved without any effort. I cannot find any reason why the rulers are breaking their heads over the use of the word Federalism which has resulted in heavy loss of lives because of their ignorance. The 13th Amendment was a stepping stone towards Federalism which would have promoted harmony and paved way for economic development. JRJ and Dr.Colvin were the culprits of increasing the number of Representatives in the Parliament and insisting on a Unicameral system. Instead of increasing the number, they could have allowed to remain with 101 members in the House of Representatives and Six academically and professionally qualified Members for each Province to be elected in the Senate with a further Five Members appointed from the Professionals from each community to the Senate the present problem would not have arisen. The issue of Homeland for Tamils would not have arisen, instead it would have been a homeland for the entire Sri Lankans. It appeared that Politicians do not want to give priority to such simplified methods in the best interests of the country, but to their vested self interests. Further the Senate could have been given the powers to clip the wings of the President and even that of the House of Representatives on matters affecting the Provinces which also could treated as a System of Checks and Balances. Had such methods been adapted, no room would have been allowed for unwanted politicians and terrorism will be wiped out. Just imagine the crores of Rupees that were spent on fighting terrorism and on Parliamentarians which money could have been utilized for economic development. I am sure the majority of the Sinhalese will accept such a change in the Constitution with courage.
