Open Letter to: Hon: President Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksha

Congratulations and my sincere appreciation and gratitude towards you for your endeavor to eliminate LTTE terrorist group from Sri Lanka. All the best to Sri Lankan forces and the defense establishment, safe and happy return to loved ones after done the good deeds.

Intend of this open letter is to suggests an initiative that may give Sri Lankan government a considerable boost in national and international frontier and specially to win hart and soul of various Tamil people who think their being discriminated by previous Sri Lankan governments.

As you may aware, new Australian Government headed by Prime Minister Mr. Kevin Rudd apologized to the Stolen Generation of Indigenous people of Australia. This was done to strengthen the reconciliation and to move forward as a one nation and word SORRY been used unlike previous Prime Minister John Howard who refused to say sorry .

As we all aware, LTTE terrorist group and LTTE Diasporas use Black July 83 as the prime motivation to get more people and to collect funds and also to give Sri Lankan a black mark all around the world to the date. And also lots of moderate and neutral Tamils are still having reservation of a same event happening in the future.

I think it is the best time Sri Lankan government to organize a reconciliation process and say SORRY to the Tamil people who got affected by the events in July 83 . And also give assurances to the Tamil people and the rest of the world that event like that will not happen again. This will effectively nullify (at least for some extent) LTTE terrorists and supporting Diasporas use of a single and unfortunate event happened 25 years ago. And I think it is smart politics to pro-active and show the world that we (Sri Lankan) as a community care for all.

I understand it is very hard to organize something like this while running a successful military operation against LTTE terrorists. I understand that it will not be likening of the some of the extremists elements in Sri Lanka and there will be lot of people (public) may reject the proposal.

I believe this is the best time to take such initiative rather than wait till end of military campaign.

There is some disturbing news appearing on media reports that few religious places in Sri Lanka being attacked by narrow minded and uneducated thugs. I am sure your government has taken quick steps to lock up and punish these tugs already. This is not a good trend to let spread in this crucial time especially when military wining and that s why Sri Lankan government should start the reconciliation process now not tomorrow.

Thanking You,
Yours sincerely,

You didn't get the whole point of this letter. In fact, you will not because you are looking at it in an eye of terrorists. Terrorists will never agree for a reconciliation,but a democratic governement and it's people will always be. The best example is Australia
