POWER SHARING IS NOT SOMETHING NEW IN THE WORLD. IT IS IN PRACTICE IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES LIKE AMERICA,GERMANY AND INDIA. BUT IN SRILANKA THE POLITICIANS ARE FOR THEIR GAIN GIVING WRONG PICTURES TO THE SINHALESE PEOPLE. THAT IS AN UNACCEPTABLE ACT.

Why did they think of it for the past thirty odd years. All want the change because of pending Northern Province election. That is the hidden agenda.

May be perks and privileges offered are far greater to vote for the changes in 13A. let us see how many will vote if PC's were to be abolished. Again citizen Perera,Thambi and mohamed are being taken on a good ride.

The only provinces to truly gain from the 13th amendment are those with a majority Tamil population. The central province or other provinces may want the devolution of power for their own sake but not for the possibility of the partition of Sri Lanka
