The author kindly requests everyone to read this article.

 

This article analyses the root cause of the collapse of the Sri Lankan Economy in various magnitudes. The principal cause is the lack of knowledge in political and economic analysis expertise of the Tamil Expatriates. In the late sixties, some educated people with clowns did a project on “EROS”, which is the Eelam Research Organisation”. It is not certain to what level they did the project, but somehow they were able to convince some besotted politicians then in SL on Tamil Eelam. The project team failed in the fiscal and financial perspective of the project and the unity the Tamils practised then. For a long time, some of the Malabar elites hated the eastern, Vanni and the island Tamils.

Initially, Kuttimani and Tangathurai took up arms. These two are illiterate smugglers.

Tamils want to get popular among the people, For this, they used the Tamil Eelam slogan. Some fanatic idiotic politicians promoted some youngsters to promote violence. The terrorist groups proliferated into various organisations, based on caste. First Kuttimani and Thangathurai, the hardcore smugglers entered the robbery of Banks and people. They name the organisation TELO.

Then came the New Tigers and ten the LTTE. Due to leadership struggles and caste differences, Uma Maheswaran created his terrorist group; PLOTE. Subsequent issues created several groups; EPRLF, TNA, EPDP, EPDLF, EROS, and the diaspora supported the groups. In all, there were more than 30+ groups. Who is intelligent? There is concrete evidence to support these facts. Malabarie eat String Hoppers and Pittu. Tamil Nadu Tamils eat Idly and Dosai. The North and East of SL eat string hoppers and Pitu as their basic stable food. In Kerala, people are different and they are jealous of themselves. To state about the leaders of the groups: Suresh Premachandran of the EPLRF is an oblivious, ignorant politician. EPRLF leader Pathmanapa a brilliant tactical person was murdered. The top murderer among the groups is V. Prabakaran (VP), leader of the LTTE. He does not want anyone to oppose him and if he finds someone a threat then he removes him/her. However, the VP is a man of discipline and honesty. He lacked vision capability and later lacked mission proficiency, maybe due to sickness at ageing. The confused illiterate form of liberation struggle led the groups and the Tamils to failure. The strong reason for the growth of the terrorist group is the support of the Tamil Diaspora (coolies + a few educated). If we analyse, today, there are political parties based on caste. What are these parties' objectives?

The increase of the weapons used by the LTTE, and some shameful countries helped the LTTE to develop aircraft and Naval boat design, and LTTE used these weapons to attack the Sri Lankan forces. Which are these countries? These countries did not have good intentions of helping anyone on this planet but destroyed Sri Lanka and destroy the economy of SL. Geopolitics had a triangular shape with India, China and USA and the UK hiding behind the USA. This is where the intelligence of V. Prabakaran skulks in where he has proved that he is nothing but a clown and a hoodwink. VP had no vision or mission and intended to fight a republic (SL) that had its strong integrated military with a rock-hard cadre. No wonder why the other groups opted not to join forces with the LTTE. In a way, we could assume that they had clever objectives, vision and mission than LTTE and the VP. Douglas Devaanda, leader of the EPDP, had a clear vision of helping the N&E to promote economic sustainability, and growth in some sectors, and move the people to unity.

The only reason we could assign for the military assembly of the LTTE is the brainwashing of the illiterate mass by the Tamil Diaspora. 80% of the Tamil Diaspora may be coolies who were involved in cleaning and labour work and they had a shortfall in perception. The only focus they had was the strong vision for Tamil Eelam which could not be achieved through foolish acts. These fools had no vision of the sustainability and knowledge of the unity of the Tamils. The educated Tamil from the Diaspora groups had their motives of entering the political arena of the foreign country where they are domiciled and they fooled the coolies in the name of democracy. The Diaspora also were able to get popular among the coolies and enter their local politics.

 

Vision for a peaceful and economically viable Sri Lanka

The geopolitics in the region has intensified the bedlam & pandemonium in SL & India, and humans who are selfish and megalomaniacs will attempt to destroy themselves. Thailand opening up a canal for Chinese ships will endanger the region, eg SL, India and the rest of the nations in the region.

Quote Google: The canal would provide an alternative to transit through the Straits of Malacca and shorten transit for shipments of oil to Japan and China by 1,200 km. China refers to it as part of its 21st-century maritime Silk Road. Proposals, as of 2015, measure 102 km long, 400 meters wide and 25 metres deep.

This was proposed by China as the pearl route. With Saudi Arabia's oil supply to China, tensions will rise with the US involved. The countries that may be perished will be SL, Maldives and maybe India. To have the Indian Ocean safe, China shall not get involved with SL for the oil route. China had planned this route and that’s why the Hambantota harbour was built. Maldives was attracted by China to oppose India and may become China's aiding state. It is a loss to understand the Politician's planning capability and how their incompetency missed this fact. It was Mahinda Rajapaksa’s period the gang allowed it to commence. Lack of international and geopolitical knowledge.

As of now, there are only a couple of options for SL:

1.      SL to merge with India as two more states to reinforce its military capability. OR

2.      Allow the USA to take over Trincomalee for maybe ten years to reinforce its military capability and Cancel the agreement for the Hambantota harbour with China.

3.      Build the land connection between India and SL. The road from Mannar to Rameswaram.

4.      Review the foreign policy and make it strong with able politicians.

5.      Jokers and කොල්ලොස් like Wimal Weerawansa shall not be elected to parliament. Politicians who have no strength in political analytical capability should not be elected to parliament. People like Hirunika, Daya Gamage, Pillaiyan, Karuna, Suresh Premchandran, Shivajilingham, Sritharan etc. Shritharan is married to the blood sister of Brigadier Theepan (Velayuthapillai Baheerathakumarn) who was a senior military commander in the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam etc and is a heavy liability to SL. These people and similar Sri Lankans may be murderers and idiots. Pillaiuyan and Karuna are murderers and have no general political or economic knowledge.

6.      Tamils to have a clear vision of what they want and analyse the future. Tamils do not need so many political parties.

7.      All Tamil Diaspora organisations like BTF, GTF etc shall be closed down as they drain funds and promote corruption. Individual thieves become rich. TGTE is to exist as a representative for Tamils and all funds from other orgs shall be directed to TGTE.

8.      Tamil Diaspora felons and imprudent organisations shall not be involved in Sri Lankan politics, to be precise; Tamil politics.

9.      With the current economic situation, even the PCs are not viable for another five years. Tamils need the PC, however, not during this corrupt period. We have experience of the four ministers who were involved in corrupt practices.

10.   Will the Tamil Diaspora fund the budget for PC operations? OR Will the Tamil Diaspora finance and provide a budget for Tamil Eelam?

11.   Seeman, Nedumaran, and Kasi Ananthan from Tamil Nadu are PRANKSTERs and  BUFFOONs. Nedumaran and Kasi Anandan want to be in the political arena, by shouting from TN. They have no sense of political and collective social views. These two are just clowns. Indian PM should do something about them. Seeman carrying a Tiger flag shall be banned. Vaiko has been kicked out of Sri Lankan politics.

12.   M.K. Stalin is a strong thinker, and planner and hits at the appropriate time.

13.   Tamils from SL are lazy people and they only want pensionable clerical and or easy jobs.

14.   All Tami politicians shall use their heads and brains.

Humans may have fought and destroyed Mars. It could be Arabs and Europeans. Now they have come here to destroy the planet Earth, maybe.

Tamils, Please do not destroy Sri Lanka. If Tamils boasting of Kumarikkandam (Lumeria) is true then the north will go under sea quite soon and SL will follow.

Will the Tamils come and live in the North and East? OR will they fund Tamil Eelam for its budgetary operations?

Tamils, please learn about Astrophysics and the physical environment. No Dwaraka can achieve peace on that island. The current picture of Dwaraka, sorry to say this; looks like an Unpleasant Tart.
