There goes the last hope for a UNP government down the drain...

Tamils are tired about hearing all these 13 13 federal etc. No meaningful solution for their burning issue via DM Android App

13th A applies to the whole country and not only for the North.
Sinhala Saturday, 14 March 2015 10:46 AM
This is a Sinhala country, we conquered this country 1500 years ago.
Ganesha Saturday, 14 March 2015 09:24 AM
Yes it was made white elephant since the system was spread unwarranted to other provinces to develop politics and earn money for the last 28 years. No many ethnic groups only two majority Sinhala and Tamil speaking minority. Central government can ever never ignore the needs of Sinhala people like Tamils and Muslims so they need to look after their needs

It is funny why people keep saying Sri Lankans and Indians share close similarities. This is utter rubbish. Indians as people do not like Sri Lankans and vice versa. It is a cultural trait and i do not think it is changing. No point wasting time trying to build on something which will not work.. Instead Sri Lanka should try to ink more ties with nations where people can related to Sri Lankans better.

Mind your work where 40% of yours is suffering from extreme poverty under 1% of maharajas.

Modi came to SL on 13th to tell Sri Lankans about 13h Amendment and beyond.
jagan sriram Friday, 13 March 2015 10:30 PM
I dont understand why you srilankans or Sinhalese to be precise reacting in this manner.there is a problem in your country if you had managed it in your own no outsider is going to interfere.my only regret is Indian interference is or was half baked.if it had been like China srilanka would have been in a far difficult position. try to grow up consider India as a big market encourage entrepreneurship that will bring economic prosperity not this bravado which is nothing but empty. via DM Android App

Perfect time to resolve the issues as MS of SLFP and RW of UNP are ruling the country.
insane Friday, 13 March 2015 08:26 PM
There must be something insanely wrong with Sri Lanka. That is why most civilized countries are advising to solve the minority issue in Sri Lanka. It is pathetic to read comments here from people who want to continue to live with the unsolved issue for ever. Is this due to the fear that giving equal rights to minorities they will outsmart the majority?
Subha Friday, 13 March 2015 08:01 PM
India will forever be our biggest threat.. only China can save us..
Eng.M.V.R.Perera Friday, 13 March 2015 07:41 PM
remember 13 th is a white elephant forced on Sri Lanka and it is dead letter as India did not carry out its part of the agreement as such it is no use talking about it . Also Sampoor Coal Power is of high cost to Sri Lanka we coulget a much better deal if we go for competitive bidding for BOT projects with a fair pricing formula
ranga Friday, 13 March 2015 06:14 PM
China came and did their business...yet never interfered in local politics...now we can do business with India under their political conditions...yipeee...
Dev Friday, 13 March 2015 03:37 PM
Stop lecturing us. Minorities are way finer in SL than minorities (ethnic, religious and caste) in India.Going beyond 13A will only alienate different ethnic groups.
dilip Friday, 13 March 2015 05:51 PM
Well said Mr.Pradeep.I fully agree with what you have said. Americans, British, Indians, they are all telling our politicians how to run the country. Very soon it will be the Malldivins
lakrawana Friday, 13 March 2015 05:38 PM
What is the meaning of beyond 13...I think we are in truble...........
Gayan Friday, 13 March 2015 05:30 PM
May be your advisors did not inform you, there are many ethnic groups other than tamils in Sri Lanka. Reconciliation should be beneficial to all communities, not juat one sir.
Ganesha Friday, 13 March 2015 05:07 PM
13 th amendment to the constitution is not a viable or durable solution that can be reversed by the central government unilaterally at any time and the Tamils can not become clowns which has been pointed out to the then Prime minister Rajive in 1987 itself. Now there should be a better solution within an undivided country
Selva rajah Friday, 13 March 2015 05:05 PM
We should work together with India to build up our Nation Economically and Politically powerful. All Srilankan live free and equal citizen.
Bamboo Friday, 13 March 2015 05:04 PM
The solution is whatever given to North and East should also be given to West and South.That is all. No complain and problem resolved.
Ravi Friday, 13 March 2015 04:40 PM
Implement the 13th Amendment now and beyond 13th Amendment can follow later. Just talking is not good enough, we need to see progress and do not want to go around the bush again and again. Nobody wants to go back to the state of 30/40/60 years ago. We have to move on, one step at a time; do not want to delay the progress by talking about the future that is too far away.
bartict Friday, 13 March 2015 04:26 PM
we also think that India should immediately hold the UN mandated plebiscites that should allow citizens of Occupied Kashmir to choose their own fate. All atrocities committed by the Indian security forces against Kashmiri citizens must be thoroughly investigated, perpetrators brought to book and victims or their kin be compensated.
miaalies Friday, 13 March 2015 04:18 PM
words of a wise man.
sam Friday, 13 March 2015 03:56 PM
I dont know why our leaders kept the Trinco Tank Farm deal as a secret until Modi comes. Pls dont give that. We know they vote against us in UNHRC. Ranawaka should answer, and should tell us the truth...
Bandara Friday, 13 March 2015 03:52 PM
Now Champika can explain to us the meaning of this going beyond 13 for reconciliation.
xplatforms Friday, 13 March 2015 03:43 PM
I think that is for the SL Parliament to decide.
Pradeep Friday, 13 March 2015 03:41 PM
Even 13A was forced upon Sri Lanka under duress by then Rajiv government. No race or community should be given lopsided or special devolution or powers. All devolution must be vested to all Sri Lankans alike. There should not be any special devolution to Thamil community. Moodi has no right to tell how Sri Lanka should govern herself. What is needed is not devolution but environment for all Sri Lankans to live with dignity, security and freedom. By devolution special political powers to North and East will aggravate the problem.Stop poking on our nose.
