Sri Lanka News Updates with Discussions

Just wanted to know your position regarding the recent developments in SL.. notably the settlement of Pakistani military units in Northern Sri Lanka.. and the invasions of Chinese`s projects and workers.

Well, this is a direct treat to India`s supremacy in the region.. the Chinese and Pakistani game in SL seem to be a very dangerous one, maybe not at your eyes, but at my eyes this is a direct danger for SRI LANKANS living in SL, and Indians living in India !

Hong Kong, China This week, Burma`s head of state and military dictator Senior General Than Shwe visited Sri Lanka. He is an unwelcome visitor to many parts of the world due to the complete destruction of democracy in his country, but his welcome by the Rajapakse regime comes as no surprise. Politically speaking, the closest that the Sri Lankan model of governance is coming to is Burma.
At one time, Sri Lankans would have been proud to claim Aung San Suu Kyi, Burma`s longstanding political prisoner fighting for her country`s democracy, as their own. However, as for the ruling regime, the loyalties have clearly changed. Authoritarian rulers like to embrace their own.

Imperator : I don`t like this. Myanmar is a military dictatorship with absolutely no respect for human rights (and some people think we`re bad)!

Ha ha ha ha ha !
What a hilarious world ! :)))

Did Imperator ever blamed Sri Lanka for its numerous human right abuses over the past 40 years ??? CrOcOdIlE tEaRs......

Chennai: Megastar Kamal Hassan has quietly celebrated his 55th birthday with his close friends and family members.

Kamal Hassan also completed 55 years in the film industry some time back this year. The veteran actor got his first national ward for `Kalathur Kannamma` in 1959 when he was a child artist.

After that there was no looking back. He has sunned millions with his acting skills.

Rightly called the `Universal Hero`, Hassan pleaded his fans to avoid celebrations on his birthday to empathize with the Sri Lankan Tamils.

Nikola Tesla: Father of Free Wireless Energy

Maia MacCarthur and Kiana Wilson

Nikola Tesla was born in Austro-Hungaria, Croatia on July 10, 1856. At his birth, the midwife said, `He`ll be a child of the storm,` to which his mother replied, `No, of light,` little did they know the drastic change he would bring to future generations through light. He is one of the great men who divert the stream of human history, Life magazine (September 1997). Over a hundred years ago, Nikola Tesla, one of the greatest inventors of all time, developed and patented over 700 inventions. Tesla intended to improve the course of human life by inventing a method of harnessing and transmitting the earths natural electrical energy (1) which produced free wireless electricity, (2) provided internet-like communications, and (3) expanding electrical science.

We will never forget you.

Terrorism - a curse for humanity.

Mahinda has to die for his crimes and terrorist acts on innocent `Sri Lankans`. But in a country divided by chauvinism, this guy is likely to be REELECTED.

Jaya Weva !

Ohm Namah Shivaya !

BTW, how come various manmade underwater remains have been found in various places like Japan, South India, North West India, Alexandria, and Bimini ?

Think again. The sea level was about 100 m below the actual level, about 12`000 years ago.

And why various ancient literrature (Sumerian, Indian, Hebrew, Greek) talk about great deluges ?

The top of an iceberg..

Nadi Astrology is a special type of Vedic astrology created by divinely inspired sages who gathered special insight to know about the future of certain souls and wrote them on palm leaves around thousands of years ago.

P.S: I post, you decide ! Don`t call me names !

But I guarantee, by experience, it is AMAZING thing when the Palm reader find your own Kandam by finding your personal name, and read out all the information about you.

God bless this BABA.
