My son behaves normally: Mervyn

Deputy Minister Meryvn Silva who is in the centre of controversy, yesterday said youngsters who did not behave like his son, should be shown to a doctor.
Speaking in Parliament during an adjournment debate on the crime situation, Mr. Silva said the IGP had enough `spine` to take action against clubs and karaoke bars.
'If someone says that my son is the only one to behave like that in the world, I would hang him in the Galle face. But it is not so. So many youth behave like that. It is natural for them to make such mistakes at this age. If a youngster of his age does not behave like that, that boy should be shown to a doctor,' he said. However, JVP frontliner Anura Kumara Dissanayake countered the Deputy Minister`s statement saying such behaviour originated due to bad examples set by the father.
'The Deputy Minister says it is normal for youngsters to beat up police officers on duty. But the sad realty is it is not normal for youngsters of the common folk to beat up policemen. It is `normal` only for a select few,' Mr. Dissanayake said.
In response Deputy Minister Silva said people who did not have children would not understand about a child`s `normal behaviour` while the JVPer quipped saying `God bless the child`.
Public security Deputy Minister Jayaratne Herath said the crime rate in the country had dropped by 12 percent in the first quarter of this year while 22 underworld figures had been killed during clashes with police.
The UPFA and JVP charged that UNP MP John Amaratnuga had no right to speak about the underworld and the crime rate, but the former Interior Minister rejected the allegations.

Yes Dr. Mervyn Silva, your son behaves normally, especially with respect to you. If any one has any doubts, ask them to inquire S.B Dissanayake. He will confirm your sons innocence.

THE INDEFATIGABLE MERVYN SILVA
Namini Wijedasa
August 8
The indefatigable (and we mean that negatively) Mervyn Silva was unfortunately far too visible again last week. Evidently chuffed at the unexpected publicity arising from fathering a juvenile delinquent, he held yet another uncalled-for press conference.
It is learnt that most journalists attended the briefing because their editors had advised them to ?drop in and see what the damn fool has to say?. Still others avoided going because they felt too many damn fools had far too much to say nowadays.
Anyhow, Silva unveiled his latest claim-to-fame at this press conference. He blazoned that somebody wanted to kill him, implying that it could be rich Tamil people based in Colombo. ?I suspect that a contract has been taken out to assassinate me,? he sniffed.
Frankly, does it look like any of us care?
Silva babbled, too, that he pays obeisance to the Lord Buddha morning and evening, while also honouring the Vishnu and Kataragama deities and the entire Pantheon of Gods. He announced that he wasn?t afraid to die. Should he be killed, however, he would like to be reborn in Sri Lanka ? ?in this holy land? -- as none other than Mervyn Silva.
Pantheon of Gods forbid. No thank you. One lifetime of Mervyn Silva is too much already. Let some other country have the reincarnated version of this thug.
Silva adds that there?s a conspiracy to assassinate his character. Let?s put this bluntly: Who needs a ruddy conspiracy? Silva?s managing to assassinate his own character quite effectively without outside contribution. A vast vocabulary of kunuharapa and a guttersnipe of a son help move the process forward.
We may laugh. But there are crucial issues to be addressed in this whole Mervyn Silva saga. For instance: Is it not enough that hoodlums are foisted on us through the National List; must we tolerate their hoodlum sons as well? How can Silva?s badly brought up rascal evade punishment time and time again? Any other bloke with the foolhardiness to box a policeman?s ears would be flung into jail so fast that he?d forget whether his eyes were on the top of his head or under his left foot.
Also, how many more punk kids must we humour before they are given the thrashing they deserve? S B Dissanayake?s sons, Mahinda Wijesekera?s son, Jayalath Jayawardena?s boy?. At least the last one extracted an apology from his offspring. Silva hasn?t so much as forced a hypocritical hum from the lips of his brat.
Does a wealth of good for the SLFP?s image, does Mervyn Silva. Jolly good show, Chandrika. Let?s throw out the net for a few more rascals to accommodate on the National List. Why look far? Take Mervyn Silva Junior.
But what a twisted, sad, upside-down nation this is. Gemunu Wijeratne -- the failed UNP general election candidate who leads the Private Bus Owners? Association -- says his men are striking from midnight tomorrow because they don?t want to pay heavy fines for violating road rules. Wijeratne effectively confirmed that they do break the law but would rather not be punished. The cheek of it.
It?s difficult to appreciate the obvious hilarity of this situation. But it is funny. In Sri Lanka, everything works in reverse. If criminals could strike to abolish the Penal Code, they would. Let the private bus Mafiosi protest till they?re blue in the face. For once, let?s grin and bear it. Hell, if we commuters had any sense, we would strike.
The UNP, meanwhile, must be laughing from its rear end. Yipeeee, a strike, a strike! What luck. Summon a press conference, draft a statement, blast the government, call for a presidential election, organise a procession? and somehow slander Mahinda because he does so make Ranil Wickremesinghe look silly. (Seriously, old boy, all that ineffectual, ill-timed fist waving and expressionless homilies simply aren?t working).
The people? Never mind them. Public misfortune is meant for dwelling on.
That?s Sri Lankan politics for you. It would frighten us silly if our politicians stopped serving themselves and started working for public good. The novelty of it would kill us.
Mangala Samaraweera is in a soup again. A very expensive soup, too. That biography he authorised of Chandrika has backfired somewhat. ?CBK? by famous (???) biographer Graeme Wilson was declared last week to be chock full of factual and technical inaccuracies. The president?s office, which had initially held the book and its author in highest esteem, issued a sheepish statement on Thursday ?un-authorising? the authorised biography (which they had not authorised in the first place). Funny, huh?
Now questions are being raised over the money spent. Seems the whole endeavour had been funded by the Sri Lanka Ports Authority. Very generous with other people?s lettuce, some of us.
About those glaring errors in the book, did nobody have the sense to read the damn manuscript before all that dosh was liberally dished out of public coffers? Or was there merely nobody with sense handling the project? And in what mind did Chandrika Kumaratunga delegate the responsibility of authorising her own biography to someone else? Is it even possible for a third, unrelated party to authorise a biography?
Sources close to Mangala claim the poor chap had organised the project in good faith. Too bad he didn?t take time to read the manuscript. On the other hand, the UNP is undoubtedly elated at the convenient materialization of this story. It?s the kind of tale that usually has them weeping tears of joy.
Meanwhile, Chandrika and her gang spent another busy week taking the masses for asses. The VAT is suddenly being whisked off certain items. First fuel, then milk and gas. Nothing to do with elections looming on the horizon. No. They were merely feeling benevolent. Idiot politicians seem to think we?re idiots too.
The SLFP never stops showing its wretched side. General Secretary Maithripala Sirisena has decided, possibly along with the rest of his pathetic party, that Elections Commissioner Dayananda Dissanayake is unethical. The same man who was hailed for his impartiality during past elections. Sirisena accuses Dissanayake of being biased, incorrect and inappropriate, of going beyond the confines of his authority and of siding with the UNP. His attack on the man is nothing short of wrathful. Why? Because Dissanayake had stated his position on the presidential election -- which, incidentally, happens to be his prerogative.
Look, Sirisena, leave the public servants alone. If the SLFP wants to show its bigoted, malicious, arrogant, self-important, stupid, dictatorial side, limit it to the equally bigoted, malicious, arrogant, self-important, stupid, dictatorial politicians who are designed to stomach crap.
Dissanayake may not say what the SLFP wants to hear. Tough luck. But perhaps our Mahinda wants early election, hmmm? |

I love Mervyn Silva. There should be more like him. He is one guy who is not a bigot or a hypocrite. Oh my God! JVPers have become saints. They have become the saviors and the caretakers of Sri Lanka. The New and Improved JVP talks of Non-Violence. We who are in their 60 still remember the JVP atrocities and the havoc they created in the '70s.
Mervyn's son is not a sissy he a real man who gets out of hand after a drink or two. Lanka who consumes record amount of alchahol in the world could expect a few to go out of line and create trouble once in while. This is not a subject to be addressed in the parliament. Guys we have better things to talk. I read one friking guy saying here above Mervyn is meant to wash cloth imply his caste. These are the parayas whose mouth should be washed with some kind of special chemicals. This is a typical UNP loser bashing a family man who has a troubled teenager |
