BERTY,
You know i am old
But young at heart?
and you called me a Fool
I called the LTTE rumor mongers fools. If you are a one, what could I do. I NEVER said that BERTY is a fool.
and that was below the belt sir
Only If I wrote that Berty is a fool, which I did not wrote...
I thought we exchange messages with respect!
Of course we do.. Don't forget that both of us were born in the fool's paradise!!

In singapore and malyasia
Why should they get nervous? Tamils have no complaints there and it isn't even their homeland.
I mentioned about thanthai chelva and the LTTE. There was one person called Amirthalingam who played a fine role and I'm sure you are well aware of him (Amir Anna). This genius followed a different route to Tamil freedom. The exact route that was followed by Singapore Tamils and Malaysian Tamils.
The Malaysian, Singapore Tamils faced a magnitude of racism far greater than Sri Lankan Tamils. Not in respect with violence, but more in the form of educational privileges and employment. It was an open secret. List of racial discriminations to Malaysian and Singapore Tamils (This list covers a period of about 48 years since independence (1957)):
1. 144 Indian primary schools closed down since 1968 - 2000 (The Indian Schools were run by Tamils)
2. 2.5% is government budget for Chinese primary schools. Indian schools got only 1%, malay schools got 96.5%
3. 0 Indian Tamils were sent to Japan and Korea under 'Look East Policy'
4. In Sri Lanka the standardization rule resulted in only 26% of pass mark students attending University (Stats from 1998 ) In Singapore it was a mere 2% (Educational bureau survey 2001).
5. 50 cases whereby Tamils, were beaten up in the National Service program in 1999
6. Only 3 out of 12 human rights items are ratified by Malaysia government since 1960
7. Libraries were baned in Tamil Areas of Malaysia. E.g: Penang, Rustogi. Well atleast we had libraries in North and East. Well then again the government went and burned down one of Sri Lanka?s National Treasures: The Jaffna Library (because it was in Tamil areas)
So how well are the Tamils in Malaysia and Singapore doing today?
Most of them are doing quite well. The aggregate Tamil is doing better than the aggregate Maly. The richest man in Malaysia is a Tamil, 29th richest in the world and owns the tallest building in the world as well (K-L Towers). The Malaysian Tamils struggled in the 60's but they didn't use weapons. They just bared the scars of discrimination but moved up by living among them. Despite discrimination they kept close ties with the Malays. It was hard but the rewards have been fruitful today. They weren't educated like the early Tamils of Jaffna and Bati. But they came up. They were humble, silent workers doing quite well today. It was alot of ass licking for them to come up in ranks. They went through the Malay blood and came up. And that was what Amir Anna had in mind. 'AVARCALIN RATHATHIL OTRI OORAVADI MALE ELUVOM'. He knew Tamils were a brave bunch that was willing to work had. The group that believed in the phrase: 'VALLAVANUKU PULLUM AYUTHAM'. Perhaps I wonder what would have happened if we followed Amir Anna's path to freedom.
Would we have had many Ananda Krishnan's among Sri Lankan Tamils? I think the Tamils would have done really well. No offence to the Sinhalese, but I think the Tamils would have doing well to the point where they might have been ruling the country's economy (Maybe even politics).
Then again, we have the LTTE who went and shot him thinking he switched to the side of the government, reaping the luxuries given to the government. They thought he had become the now Doghlas Devananda. Little did they realize Amir Anna had something else in mind?
PS:- You must be thinking that Amir Anna was part of the TULF, and he was no diferant from the LTTE, because he was the first to introduce the whole notion of a separate state. Also the fact that TULF are known to be opportunitist. But his later policies had a real cause behind it. The guy was educated and he soon realized terrorism would allow the Government to justify the use of violence against the Tamils. Also it would throw up the wrong kind of leaders and it did among the LTTE.
Amirthalingam the mature statesman could have led his people not into the promised land of Eelam but into the realm of a viable political alternative that could have ushered in peace, stability and prosperity. |

Now I remember some people(I cannot remember exactly whome and cannot be bothered to dig through past postings) were eagely waiting for the day CFA turns 5 yrs to see LTTE declaring ealam independance and/or routing SLA from N&E.
Hope they are all happy just to accept a plea from LTTE to the International Community instead!

Berty, each time the LTTE attacked one target, they killed many innocents. So why should any LTTE target be different for the SLAF. War is war, Berty. Sorry to say that, but thats the way it is. We didn't want this war, it was thrust upon us.
wow!! you asking me why should the LTTE target is different to SLAF? LTTE is a labelled as Terrorist but the SLAF is not a terrorist org..there is your difference.
After saying that if you want to justify your claim then you may want to call the SLForces as terrorists too..U decide.. |

Rasak,
That was good analysis! Hats off!!
But the issue is that the LTTE (and its followers) do not need this sort of liberation...they just need a separate land...at the cost of their own kind's perish...
That is the liberation they need..and they try to cover that with all sorts of rubbish claims... |

The problem in SL is different from Malasia or S'pore.. both countries Tamils do not have a homeland... but in Sri Lanka we have a home land... our kings fought wars with Sinhala kings to safeguard our land... it is the duty of VP and us to take that land back! |

Rasak!
Amir's eldest son was junior to me in college (St John's)
for you yes! he may be a different leader (TULF) but i am not sure he was to lead the Tamils in the same way as Singapore! TULF was official representatives of LTTE! |
