One the other hand, if these are true, in the interest of ALL SRI LANKANS AND SLA, GOSL should ensure such sensitive info do not fall on to the hands of media....
yes when the media fonds out the average sinhala man woman will be alerted. better to keep them in the dark. thats why you still have foilks in this forum saying the Defacto state run by the tigers was PRESENTED to the LTTE.
must have been wondering because everyu other day the media said the SLA, SLN were killing the lTTE like there was no tomorrow and suddenly out of the blue they have a defacto state.
can take a horse to the river bank but cant force it to drink!!
presi's office , uthayan paper , sunday leader have all got together to ffol the public once again is the verdict by VINI. i can live with it. |

Forced colonization?
kent/dollar farms.
IRC brought in after tamils were chased out. Manal aru becomes weli oya. dont tell me this is news to you dewey.
here is another site. (everything is in my profile)
http://www.tamilcanadian.com/pageview.php?ID=462&SID=76
''In particular, Sinhalese population in the Trincomalee District increased from 3.8% to 33.6% of the total between 1911 and 1981. During the same period, the Tamil population decreased from 56.8% to 33.7% in the district. In the Amparai District, Sinhalese population increased from 7.0% to 38%, while the Tamil population declined from 37.0% to 20.0% between 1911 and 1981. This rapid increase in the number of Sinhalese settlers in the Eastern Province led to the creation of the Sinhalese electorates of Seruvila and Amparai in 1976.'' |

It wasnt forced colonization. Govt developed irrigation schemes and settled people in undeveloped uncultivated govt lands. Most of the farmers happened to be Sinhala. These people went there because they were given land. They were not forced to go there. That was my point. I am not goint to whitewash the sins of past political leaders who acted upon shortsighted personal interest. I think mahabala's question relates to recent history where TULF had the opposition and able to win many rights back. If that is the case in todays world, where lots thing are transparent. tamils can and will enjoy lot more freedom than what they experience under LTTE iron fist. I can guarantee that there would be sinhala supporters to tamil cause if they simply denounce violence and terrorism. Trust me, I will be one of them.

| I really do not know on what basis this so-called senior membership is awarded.If it depends on the number of posts posted,but when the admin asks you to come in another name after few posts and if you don't, you are taken away,like what happened to me after 300 posts,then certain members will never ever be able to become senior members.Is the admin manipulating?Hope the admin will not take offence and take me off for making this quary.Mr. Brown, could you please explain, how a senior membership is awarded? |

Nale:
Not sure of the criteria for senior membership. Know for certain it is not tied to the time scale. If you after senior membership I suggest that you break up your posts sentence by sentence into zillion mini posts.
TC got the senior position because he is the most knowledgeable on ladies. My suspicion is that he is an ex pap-smear nurse.

Hi Dewary
I have a simple question to you? how those colonization people happened to be singhala, when tamils were displaced from the same sight because of fear in communal riots, and when those tamils are still in refugee camps.
do you know dolar and hens farms in manalaru (veli oya) was once a settlement for upcountry people who was severely affected due to 1983 riots. but singhala politician forcefully got the farm back and resettle it with singhala people. Do you know then upcountry politician thondaman beg singhala leaders not to take that from tamils? even though he was a part of the then government, he couldn't do it.
please tell me sincerely is it possible after all of this the colonial people happened to be Sinhalese. |

with all due respect to you and i believe your word the ONLY trump we have is the LTTE. give them up and there goes our bargaining chip.
Forget the LTTE. why dont you show us what the sinhalse can do . how about changing the constitution, abolishing executive presidency etc,2/3 majority, federalism etc. surely you dont need the LTTE for that.
do that first and prove to the tamils that we CAN ATLAST take your word. Until that happens you forget about the LTTE. |
