June 25, Colombo: The nomination lists of two main minority parties, Tamil United Liberation Front (TULF) headed by V. Anandasangaree and the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) for Northern polls have been rejected by the respective Retaining Officers.
According to the Additional District Elections Commissioner in Vavuniya, S. Karunanidhi, the nomination list for TULF in Vavuniya District was rejected due to a discrepancy in a signature of a nominee.
The nomination lists of the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) and an independent group for Jaffna District were rejected due to the same reason, said Jaffna Additional District Elections Commissioner, P. Kuganathan.

Micheal Jackson is the greatest entertainer ever lived on the face of earth and Elvis is distance second. Singing, dancing, composing, song writing as well as producing skills like MJ's will never be found in a one package...

Michael J died, the end of one of the greatest music legends of our times. Sad to see the sudden death at this young age, around just 50.
General VP died last month, the end of one of the greatest freedom fighter of our time. Sad to see the sudden death at this young age, around just 54.

Like some sinhalese who dont want to accept that they are Dravidians.

Remember back in 2002 when Whacko Jacko dangled his baby son from the forth floor balcony of his hotel room in Berlin? |

Foriegn Investment Funds flocking to Colombo Stock Exchange..
Sri Lanka focused PE fund bullish on post-war stability
http://www.lankabusinessonline.com/fullstory.php?nid=89414572
June 26, 2009 (LBO) - Singapore-based Calamander group is the first to launch a Sri Lanka focused fund after the end of a 30-year war in the island, but the has worked behind the scenes for two years to be the first kid on the block.
The Sri Lanka Private Equity Fund is an early bird, coming barely a month after the island's government said a war with Tamil Tiger separatists was at an end with its top leadership eliminated.
Sri Lanka's listed stocks are up 60 percent from the beginning of the year though despite disappointing earnings, largely on the bullishness of investors who have ground knowledge of the country.
It is also no accident that the Calamander group hit the ground running to become the first to open a fund on the country.
Ishaq, a Calamander director who is working on the fund, is Sri Lankan born. He says about 40 million dollars of potential investments have been identified. |

IT says that most Countries Controlled the ILLEGAL DRUG menace with harsh LAWS.
Countries which do not have tough LAWS still are suffering from it.
Muslim countries are the best.

If they can't put the signature on a piece of paper properly, how are they going to rule? |
