Please correct me if I am wrong, but we in Sri Lanka want to make life difficult for ourselves as we are succors for punishment. So it was with Vesak, which by some inexplicable reason of the Astrological Clock, is celebrated on the Full Moon which falls on April 29th, instead of Vesak being commemorated all over the world, except ...

It is accepted folklore in Sri Lanka that, the politicians have ruined this Country over a 70 year period and they continue to do so. Organized Crime, Compromising the Independence of the Police and Judiciary, Bribery and Corruption lie at the base of most of the stories of Government Excess.Latterly, greed has taken altogether different proportions with the MPs voting ...

I describe below one incident that occurred yesterday, to illustrate why you cannot trust those who are shedding crocodile tears about the recent incidents, are actually the very perpetrators of the crimes they are blaming the government for instigating, and implicating them.It is true, this is but one incident does not make a pattern, the stamp of all incidents, but ...
I just got an sms on my phone saying that Ranjith Madduma Bandara was sworn in by the President to the vacant position, (temporarily held by the Prime Minister) as the new Minister of Law and Order.With no FB, his pandam karayas from Bibile and Moneragala can't flood facebook today showing pictures of themselves with him and wishing him all ...
The craziest thing about all the problems that developed soon after the recent elections on February 2018, which gave the faction represented by the BUDD, an unquestioned plebiscite by the public, as ennobled them to continue in the same manner of the MR regime that was overthrown on 8th January 2015.Don't forget the whole brand was Mahinda Rajapakse, there was ...
Dear Mr President,Instead of doing the obvious, flying into Kandy 3 days ago, you have a Palace there too remember! and taking charge of the situation first hand, you could easily have nipped this little problem in the BUDDDD! (pardon my pun here) - you created a problem that should really not exist in 2018 in Sri Lanka if we ...
It was clearly out of order, of the United States authorities, to tell the Govt. what to do in this tense situation that has arisen over the past few days.http://www.adaderana.lk/news/46271/us-calls-for-quick-action-against-perpetrators-end-to-emergencyIt is going to add fuel to the fire instead of fire retardantIt is clearly annoying a lot of people that the US has intervened and the opposition to the Government ...

HERE'S WHYIt has been quite clear if one was privy to the Diplomatic Correspondence between London and the Foreign Ministry in Sri Lanka, that the HC in London had no support from Colombo to her requests, admonishing the quality of the Goons in our HC, who don’t have a clue what diplomacy is all about.Diplomacy is a fine art that ...
This article is about the laughing stock, the people of Maharagama have been turned into, and give an opinion of how their shame can be rehabilitated a little, as otherwise anyone known to be living in Maharagama will forever be damned as IDIOTS who don't even know if they are voting for a dog let alone a dead one!That is ...
The top picture is what the Sinhala people see and the bottom is what Tamil Diaspora see and this divisive difference is what we fought the war to destroy and the soldier above has through his foolish and incompetent act of Hara Kiri consigned Sri Lanka yet again to the depths of having to defend itself from unfair criticism brought ...
I reported earlier (I believe it was my last Blog entry) about how ANY paddy land can be refilled for development at a price, thanks to collective connivance of State Officials without conscience. Just look at the houses these people live in the private cars they have, the overseas travel they engage in, and Countries they retire in with their ...
