Tamils cry Boohooo in Sri Lanka that no Tamil could be the president of Sri lanka.

When a Black guy try to be the first Black President of US of A, our madays support the White trash :))

Fate

Fri. 4 Jan 2008: Velupillai Pirapaharan, or someone who looks like him (a Pirapaharan-look-alike) was caught by Indian Navy sailors hiding in a 4 feet wide hole dug into the bottom of a fishing trawler and covered by a sewage lid which in turn was covered by plastic cartons full of fish and ice. He is said to be bleeding from wounds to his body inflicted when the sailors discovered him as he made an attempt to escape by biting one of the sailors on his forearm. Both injured are receiving medical treatment for the injuries caused. The Indian Navy said that they would severely interrogate him for further information and that his location was being kept secret. No comments could be obtained either from the Sri Lankan Govt or the LTTE.

New Delhi, Jan 4 - Sri Lanka will remain a unitary state according Buddhism a primary place but will go for greater devolution of powers to provinces in a bid to end the prolonged ethnic conflict, according to proposals that have been almost finalised.

Ideas that have emerged over the months at meetings of the All Party Representative Committee (APRC), which will meet for the last time Monday and Tuesday, indicate that special steps are to be taken to ensure the growth of disadvantaged communities.

The soon to be revealed APRC proposals seek to promote greater power sharing among the majority Sinhalese community as well as the Tamils and Muslims, who between them constitute the minority in Sri Lanka save other tiny groups.

The APRC brings together virtually all Sri Lankan political parties barring the main opposition United National Party (UNP), which has pulled out of the process, the Sinhalese Marxist Janatha Vimukti Peramuna (JVP) and the Tamil National Alliance (TNA), the largest Tamil group in parliament and an ally of the Tamil Tigers.

There is no indication, however, as to how these proposals, if they do become law, will affect the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), which is fighting for an independent Tamil state and is now locked in war with Colombo.

Informed sources told IANS that the APRC has decided not to accept persistent Tamil demands that Sri Lanka be declared a federal state although the LTTE and Colombo had decided in Norway in late 2002 to explore a federal solution to the conflict.

According to the APRC proposals, Sri Lanka will be a unitary state 'in the sense ... it shall be deemed to be an undivided, integrated and inter-dependent state structure' with power being shared between Colombo and provinces and among the provinces.

The Sri Lankan state will 'protect and foster the Buddha Sasana' while respecting other religions.

It has been recommended that Sri Lanka adopt a parliamentary form of government, with the executive powers exercised through the president who shall act on the advice of the prime minister and the cabinet.

It has been suggested that the transfer of executive powers to parliament shall take place at the end of the current term of office of President Mahinda Rajapaksa. Until then, the president will be deemed an MP, responsible and answerable to parliament.

All Sri Lankans eligible to vote can be registered as voters even if the war has displaced them within the country or forced them to go abroad.

In line with suggestions made by a group of experts, a bicameral legislature has been proposed. This will include a House of Representatives to be elected by the people and a Senate to be elected by provincial assemblies. Each of the nine provinces shall elect eight Senators, making it a 72-member body.

Dear Friends
CFA is no more. The demand of JVP JHU and many Sinhalese chauvinist come true now. JVP cannot thrive with out a communal civil war. LTTE cannot win its final war with out JVP become strong enough to become real challenge to GOSL. Coming civil war will lead to this.
Isolated Sri Lanka now get caught between Devil and the blue sea namely China and India. What ever happen World Tamil and Sinhalese will survive. We don't know what will happened to the Independent and sovereignty of Sri Lanka. This was the history of Sri Lanka. Out choosing its conflict resolution with brothers to others like Cholas and losing freedom is not new to Sinhalese. Loosing independent and sovereignty to get external help to win a war against (sharing power) with brothers is the history thats going to repeat again.

you are referring to CFA as if GOSL did not abide but as if LTTE did.

The truth was the CFA was 1000 times violated moreby the LTTE according to even the last reports by SLMM.

DO you think its fair to ask GOSL to be under the CFA spell when the other party violates it 1000 times more ?

You should blame the LTTE not GOSL
