Since
independence in 1948, the country has gone bankrupt although Sri Lanka
generated foreign income through tourism, tea, rubber etc. As a President, you
should be aware of the country’s economic and financial situation. During your
regime in 2015, the Arjuna Mahendran Bond scam opened and has now been buried.
We blame the Rajapaksas. How about the others?
The decline and
problems started with the following sequence:
1.
SWRD
Bandaranaike -1956
2.
JVP and LTTE commenced
their destruction in 1971.
3.
Th Rajapaksas
and the Natesan commenced their
destruction via
bribery and corruption -2004
Therefore, virtually
these were the politicians who were supposed to build the nation and look after
the people. Well, JRJ accepted the deal with Rajiv Gandhi and implemented
amendment 13. However, at that time the politicians were patriotic. No one knew
the economic situation, maybe, I think. I was not in politics; however, the
governor of the CB should have notified the President of the situation. We
cannot assume that Rajiv Gandhi should have known the economic situation. If
people knew then they should have objected to the PCs, not on racial grounds
but on economic grounds. Maybe all politicians were dumb at that time. PC
governance is not racial but economic, whether the country can afford to have
three levels of governance. GOSL, PC, Local Govt.
Indonesia’s
rupee was dumped in 1995, and Argentina went bankrupt, now SL and Pakistan. Please
look at the UK now. The British Empire Pound has gone down because of the
people who crawled in by boats and illegally. The British culture is polluted. Tamils
crawled into India, Thamizhaham and other European countries. Even a labourer
who goes to other nations shouts for Thamil Eelam and missing persons. What can
the government do about “Missing persons”? I am aware that some missing persons
send money to their wives, and they build houses in SL. The parents shout “missing
persons”. It has become a money-earning tactic by the Tamils. These are examples.
If you implement
amendment 13 with Police and land power, you are NOT approving for the
Tamils only. The entire nation: SL will be governed by three levels of
governance.
This will be the
biggest blunder on this planet. The people who are going to be in the PCs are bribery
special crooks and culprits.
Tamils do not
want to know about the economic situation of the country. In the name of Tamil
Eelam and TCC people were collecting money and they are now rich owning
supermarkets and shopping complexes and super houses and conference halls.
Today there are several Tamil associations worldwide. Some of them have
vanished, ex: Norway, Australia etc. Why do they have them? Why are there several
radio stations in Australia? It’s the EGO and Selfishness.
You are not
interested in all these. January 2023 itself, the CB sold several billions of Rs
of Bonds, Bills and Notes. Why do you need them? Does it mean that SL will be
run by Bond sales? OR are you indirectly planning to privatise some government
assets?
People thought
you will run the country effectively and efficiently. Do you always have a
financial expert with you? I don’t think so. All power and wealthy people in SL
are culprits and corrupt.
What we need is for
people to live happily. If things do not turn normal, and if you implement
amendment 13, then you can be sure that you will never ever return to politics
ever again and UNP will be sunk in the Ocean.
Maybe JVP
is the patriotic and effective political party to run the country.
Implementation
of 13 will drive India also to poverty. Already Pakistan and Adani have gone
down. Next will be India. SL will be driven to poverty and start begging again.
Don’t we have some self-esteem?
As I recommended,
think of empowering the Municipal Councils and think of posting some Police to
the MCs to operate functionally, however, administratively they should report
to the DIGs. Land need not be given to the MCs. They already have that little power.
As of now, all politicians
in the North and South seem to have the Rajapaksa culture which will drive Sri
Lanka to poverty soon and make citizens commit suicide.
Please check the
CB also occasionally.
Hope you will
not make a mistake on the 8th of February 2023 by declaring the PCs.
Thank you, Sir.
