The Country in Chaos

A New Minister For Law And Order Is A Crying Need:

It is about time we had a Minister of Law and Order, who could uphold and administer Law and Order in the explicit. We need a man with a spine, a man with guts, one who is not afraid to call a spade a spade, to put his foot down with a firm hand.

Sarath Fonseka is the only man who can fill that post and carry it to perfection. The man has guts. This country needs Sarath, not a namby-pamby; who is insipidly pretty, sentimental and weak!!! We need a man who can say what he means and means what he says, regardless of to whom or on what.

Our President says Reconciliation is the need of the hour. Ranil has only just woken up to form a Three Member Committee to look into corruption.

Who looked into corruption all this time and why was it not given due cognizance? The country is steeped in corruption but our leaders are only just waking up to it, OR ARE THEY REALLY?

What the country needs is TRUTH, DISCIPLINE, EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL CITIZENS, ENTRY TO SCHOOLS MADE POSSIBLE, JUDICIARY AWAKENED AND JUSTICE ENFORCED, CORRUPTION FREE MINISTERS, COST OF LIVING CONTROLLED, THE RULE OF LAW ENFORCED WHETHER THEY BE BIG OR SMALL. THESE ARE VITAL TO THE VIABILITY OF OUR COUNTRY!!!  

 


The Plight of The People:

What is the plight of the poor people? Cyril Ramaphosa once said, “We are building a nation where our greatest concern must be those in the society who have the least, the poor, the unemployed.” Is this fact or fiction??? WHAT ARE WE BUILDING??? Aren’t we SUPPOSED TO BE BUILDING A NATION WHERE THE GREATEST CONCERN MUST BE THOSE IN SOCIETY WHO HAVE THE LEAST. THE POOR, THE UNEMPLOYED!!! The burning question is ARE WE? How about the Judiciary.

All we get today are postponements and more postponements. Whether it is land, human rights, murders, rape, fraud, drugs, all we get are postponements; they are the order of the day.

I know of one land case that has been going on for 20 years. 20 YEARS and still not RESOLVED. WHY? The petitioner is a humble driver with a wife and two children, struggling to get his portion of the land. 20 YEARS in and out of Court wondering when and where this will all end.

ISN’T THIS A CRIME AGAINST ALL THE NORMS OF HUMANITY? Is this a nation whose greatest concern is the poor?

A poor man who goes to Court month after month for 20 years to settle a land dispute? Who is getting rich with all these postponements? Has anyone asked if these horrendous delays are justified in the name of JUSTICE? More Important, IS THIS A BUDDHIST COUNTRY? LIES, DECEPTION, MURDER, PARENTS MURDERING THEIR CHILDREN, FATHERS RAPING THEIR DAUGHTERS, DRUGS AVAILABLE EVEN IN SCHOOLS, CRIMINALS WALKING FREE, ABORTIONS, LIQUOR CONSUMPTION, POOR PEOPLE’S GRIEVANCES NOT DEALT WITH, COST OF LIVING SKY HIGH, ETC., ETC., ETC.

THE THRICE BLESSED LORD BUDDHA MUST INDEED BE SHUDDERING THAT HE CHOSE TO COME TO THIS COUNTRY TO SPREAD BUDDHISM!!’

 


Lies, Lies And More Lies :

We were told of a Cabinet Reshuffle - PURPOSE NIL!!! Not only the people but the Ministers themselves are laughing through their backs. This bunch of politicians-starting with the President himself- firmly believe they are fooling the people.

No lesson has been learned. 

Suddenly, Lasantha’s case, which never reached completion “IS IN A MUDDLE”- WHO CREATED THE MUDDLE AND WHY???

— Arjun Mahendran has skipped Singapore!!! Udayangana cannot be found!!! Are we playing hide and seek here? Aloysius and Palisena want to be housed in the Prison Hospital. Gota has returned and His Presumptuous Royal Highness says he cannot be Prime Minister because he holds dual citizenship.

Good Lord - Who offered it to him anyway??? One could really go on and on about ALL the cases that never reached completion.

About all the those who skipped the country. Gota has returned, Namal is out, Jaliya cannot be found but who allowed him to get away?

None other than the Director of the National Eye Hospital, who confirmed that Jaliya’s “SUPPOSED EYE CONDITION” could not be treated in this country. WONDER HOW MUCH THAT WAS WORTH TO THE NATIONAL DIRECTOR???

Thajudeen’s remains will probably be desecrated again. The list is endless and we have to keep adding to the atrocities committed in the name of JUSTICE. The Cabinet Reshuffle was the biggest travesty.

Even Ravi thinks the Reshuffle is A JOKE!!! The bottom line is they cannot stand each other. Each one wants what the other has.

    What is said in the article is the actual true picture of the country. How long can we tolerate all this and see some light? It is high time that all citizens do realize this reality and stand against to have these ills cured.

    We ,the country and almost all the expatriates of Sri Lankan origin would welcome this move. The only who is above all narratives ,is Mr Sarah fonseka, to maintain law and order, and we need a person of his calibre.

    Many may have apprehensions about Sarath Fonseka, but we needn't be after all, he is in the same boat as Gota, both are just G.C.E (OL) qualified who happened to join the Army as Officer Cadets.But said that in today's context Sarath F, may be the only hope SL has at the moment to bring some "kick booting" the unlawful ones walking our land, the thrice blessed we call it.
