    Very dodgy! Note all members are defeated Tamil politicians except the NP CM. This group will only complicate matters.

    Start with a definition of "Tamil speaking" people. Do they include Muslim and Sinhalese people who speak Tamil. Then list what their problems are which are unique to themselves.
