| Politicians of all sides must band together and have a grand master,like the Marshall plan to rejuvenate the neglected areas of the northeast,without shamelessly resorting to kickbacks and corruption.We must now look beyond the war budget and the conflict.This means the proper use of the massive loan taken from Iran.If the likes of TNA is unwilling to positivly contribute to it's people,then the Prez sould appoint some other people untill the next genral elections. |

Wake up from your dream, this is Sri Lanka not Britain.
This means the proper use of the massive loan taken from Iran
Proper use? Do you at least know what goes on Sri Lanka? There are 108 hulking buffaloes who are given all the luxurious perks immginable and do you think the Sri Lankan economy has sufficient funds to maintane them while fighting a costly war? This is not Britain this is Sri Lanka. |

Dauntless,

Is that why the British authorities allowed Anton Bala to live in Britain, gave him medical attention and when the dude died accorded him a VIP funeral at Alexandra Palace with the British Police in attendance.
Is that why they gave Karuna, a known Sri Lankan terrorist, a visa to enter Britain?
Is that why the LTTE still has it HQ at Catherine Road in East Ham, East London?
Would any one of the Al-Qaida be tolerated in Britain. Both the LTTE and the Al-Qaida are banned terrorist organisations in Britain but when it comes to the treatment of the individual members they have a double standards. Wonder why?

I am aware of what's happing in SL,as I go there often in a year.It not just nikam,OK?The diaspora that is in UK is in great numbers in areas who's MPs support the tiger cause and these numbers matter in the elections.So these authorities and some ministers are bound to have double standards.Should there be terrorist supporters of another sect,perhaps they will be compelled to support them as well,just to stay in politics.Enormous wealth and the numbers of the diaspora will determine their policy to wards the island and that's the sad reality.So winning the war alone will not end our problems.

JVP vote base is declining. JVP has made a fundamental Political Error by not joining the Cabinet....
But this is good for the SLFP!
At the next Elections, Traitor Ranil will come fourth behind the TNA.....
Here are the Results:
1. Mahinda Karu National Govt.....Comfortable Majority in Parliament
2. JVP.........Second Place...with Weeramonkey as leader of the opposition
3. TNA....Third Place
4. UNP(Traitor Ranil Faction).......Fourth Place |

Of course. Still government (with MEGA Cabinet with 108 Idiots) can survive and earn a lot for their futures as CBK did when she was ruling Sri Lanka.
At the next Elections, Traitor Ranil will come fourth behind the TNA.....
Here are the Results:
Ha ha ha ha. Well, you may think that Americans also can vote for SL elections. Lolzzzzz
No comments.
..Traitor Ranil ...
Well Ranil may be a traitor. But if Mahinda is a patriot,
1) Why keeping 108 ministers. Why those ministers can discuss a small cabinet (let's say with 30-40 ministries), cut their un-necessary expenses and help to relieve normal peoples' problems (cost of living). Well if that happened they will join to opposition party. Right??So what they are doing at the moment is earning money for their future.
----So who are real traitors.
2) Why Mahinda go on foreign tors with mega groups???Why can't he cut down un-necessary expenses???.
Well, everybody in this government is earning money for their futures. Cos everybody knows that the solution to this ethnic problem is very very far (according to the current procedures of the current government). MR and his ministers doing the same as CBK did. After a couple of years everybody (108) will be in USA, UK, etc. Poor people will be paying the price.
So Who Are Real Traitors??????
