This is a big lie. Tamils had equal opportunities in Sri Lanka.
Tamils in Sri Lanka are treated better than Tamils in Malaysia.
we are natives, we do not need your treatment!
YOU TREAT YOURSELF!

People call me a 'Peelamist' etc etc..I am not bothered mate..this is a forum..and I know what I am in for..

I agree with u..ur a student and you have a load to do..but I have a son your age or even older..so my stand is different..Sinthaka, yes..he does not come from Home cos he has to do his duties at home..since he mentioned to me they have a little baby..I understand..but sometimes we pass hints and it is a joke. It is important that both of us know about it..
Regi..by the way..when i call people Malli/Nangi/Thambi..I do it with real feeling as a bro/sister..I am not sure why ru so offended by it..I am not going to stop it anyway.. |

Whoever become citizens are treated equally.
All Tamils are not native. Even VP's forefathers came only 200 years ago from TN.
