The Sri Lankan government said Monday it was contemplating offering overseas jobs to Tamil Tiger rebels who surrendered to the authorities.
Keheliya Rambukwella, defence spokesman and minister of foreign employment told reporters that he had discussed the issue with the International Organization for Migration.
He said some 47 Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) members who had surrendered in the northern Jaffna peninsula were being rehabilitated in two centres.
Some 11 former LTTE members had already been released and gone on jobs overseas, said the spokesman.
Rambukwella said the government has put up posters offering financial help and foreign employment to the members of LTTE`s suicide squad.
`This was an action taken purely on humanitarian grounds,` Rambukwella said, adding that the government wanted to offer an alternative to the LTTE members in order to prevent destructive action by them.

And how are they going to get visas?
Let me guess Diplomatic Passports no.....?
You can't even get jobs for your own people you want to give jobs to Tamil Tigers?
And what is the idea of the whole exercise.
Maybe by sending everyone off overseas the LTTE will have no fighting power?
Good luck.

This means that the government is dependent on the goodwill of the rebels rather than their own skills.
