Why NFF, JHU, JVP are silent? They opposed a visit by Portuguese President's proposed visit in 2005 saying that this is neo colonization? Too much to handle....

We should completely clean this grave yard , Very strange that British looters are still being celebrated with different names .

I aw this cemetery for the first time last January. It clearly stands out in the area and surely can be made a tourist attraction.

If Sri Lanka was under British colonial rule we will definitely be a developed country with the resources we have. Sri Lankan politicians screw up this beautiful country.

I've been here, it was such a great experience! The caretaker is such a nice guy. Definitely needed a facelift! Like someone else said, it definitely needs be more of a tourist attraction!

Britishers ruled our country for more than 125yrs. they suppressed the locals. they killed hundreds and thousands of people. Now, the point i have is.. LTTE tried to divide the country by means of violence. they used most dangerous methods to kill people. in this context ( i repeat - in this context), i do not see a difference between the Britishers and LTTE. Here we are giving a facelift for the Garrison Cemetory of british army while we are trying to clean up the LTTE graveyards. double standards ??
