I am in a quandary as to why Udaya G brand sinhalese as Sinhal Nationalists and Tamils as just Tamils. Aren't the Tamils nationalistic and racists?

I firmly believe the best answer to resolve this complex problem is to adopt one Sri Lankan identity for all inhabitants of the island nation. First you need to be a Sri Lankan - race, religion etc. could take a second place for only cultural purposes. Finally, Sri Lankans should have the freedom to live in any part of the island with dignity as they wish. There should not be any homelands for any particular community. Sinhala and Tamil languages should be official languages with English as the commerce and link language. Those who learn the two official languages should be given recognition when seeking employment.

What you are saying is that even PSC recommendations will not be implemented. So that means this problem will go on for another 100 years. Correct?

If this is solvable, Sinhala politics cannot be put to practice any
more. It is Politicians who decide and not Sinhala Voters.

You are simply saying the (historically) sinhala nationalist will not give in aa inch. However the TNA should be part of the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC), where you would be anihilated.
The moral of the story is the nationalist haven't learned a lesson and the history will be repeated again untill the country learn a lesson!

Very proud to be Sri Lankan (and a Catholic at that), way to go brother:-)

Very rational assessment of the way things are and the majority thinking in Sri Lanka. For heavens sake what is the logical reasoning the TNA has for what they are forcing the Sri Lankans to give them. JP / USA
