Dr. Deepika udagama has written a very inspiring article.What she is asking the Government to do is like asking a tortoise for feathers. Hence priority no. 1 should be for the intellectuals to create a public opinion so as to push the Govt out of power. Then prepare an agenda for true reconciliation and democratic governance where all ethnic groups would feel a genuine sense of equal belonging.Education has to play a crucial role in this exercise of building self esteem among the vanquished.

I too accept Sunila Mendis's comment. This regime must be changed as soon as possible.

Congrats Deepika for the eloquent way you have put across your ideas on reconciliation. While agreeing with the "prescription" you have given in the penultimate paragraph, I may say what the government is doing, (i.e. development for reconciliation) should not cease. But as I have said sometime back in the Daily Mirror devastated minds cannot be healed only through development. This is what has been either little understood by authorities or understood but ignored.
