Sri Lanka is also the country with the highest per capita alcohol consumption and the highest child abu$e rate in the world.
This is a big lie.
Show me the stats.
Alcohol, drug use is much more prevalent in western countries.
Remember, westerners gave us Alcohol.

Alcohol consumption
Jun 12th 2007
From Economist.com
LUXEMBOURG glugs more than 15.5 litres of alcohol per person in a year, more than any other country. One explanation is that the duty on alcohol is relatively cheap in the tiny nation, encouraging booze tourism from its more heavily taxed neighbours. No such explanation for the Irish, however, who quaff 13.7 litres a year, according to the World Health Organisation. European countries, with their cultural acceptance of alcohol, tend to dominate the top places. In America, where stricter minumum-age requirements apply, the average person drinks 8.6 litres a year.

We need to find practical methods to achieve peace.
If Malaysia can prosper with 65% Malay Muslim rule why not Sri Lanka.
There is a limit you can compromise.

And please seperate Buddhism and Sinhala Buddhism which is today politicized at the highest level !!
This should be done, Putting Buddhism in front doesn't work, There are many other people with different believes. |
