The Portuguese and Dutch ruled Northeast as a separate province till the British for administrative convenience unified the country in 1833. So Sinhalese only zealots should thank not their stars but the imperial British for giving a "unitary" country on a platter to the majority Sinhalese in 1948. Sinhalese deliberately makes the weird claim that in a democracy the majority prevails. That is fine but not in a country like Ceylon which is multi-lingual, multi racial, multi-cultural and multi-religious.

Our embassies abroad should consist of tamil and muslim employees as well and ensure national functions are conducted in a language known to all be it English, French, Roman,German without attaching importance to the national language. Cultural activities can be in the national languages
Address by ambassadors should be understood by all and not contribute to divisions. Amity should be cuktivated from the embassy level so that everybody takes a pride as a sri lankan without discrimination

Sad to see Rudrakumaran & his diaspora faction poisoning the minds of All Tamils and destroying the sincere efforts of the neutral and law-abiding Tamils LIVING in Sri-Lanka yeaning for a respectful and peaceful co-existence with rest of Sri-Lankan population.

We are increasingly drifting away from 'By the People, For the People' whether in the North, South, East or West in Sri Lanka. A 'U' turn will solve all the problem including the issue of 'Tamil Elam"

A politically perepetually power hungy miniscule portion of disgrunted and frustrarted irresponsible and Tamils here and abroad, are day dreaming of an Elaam as a separate country within the confines of souverign Sri Lanka soil, which will bneveer ever come to pass.If every community having amazingly negligible population yearns for a separate segment to them, what an utter comical concent it would be.
The present day Sinhlese are not fools like the olden days Kings including King Senarat. They knw how kindness and sympathy shown to vermins, who when grow to real Worms
immagine to be snakes. No Elaam but sympathetic reconcilition is possible.
