The Sinhalese need to understand that they have been depriving the Tamils to live as an equal citizen maintaining and preserving their language,culture and freedom to do move freely
Why were they attacked in 1958,1977, 1983
They have been deprived of university admissions on merit.
The army should not occupy north and east in vast numbers,not get involve with running businesses,and claim the civilian lands.

Thugs and murderers still rule the "occupied territory" after the war ended.
These need to be removed to achieve normalcy.
A few surviving thugs and murderers are now with the government.

As usual S.K.Gunasekera is writing arrant nonsense. The fact of the matter is the Thamil people have decisively and convincingly rejected the SLFP/UPLF headed by Mahinda Rajapaksa supposed to be the saviours who freed the Thamil people from the clutches of the LTTE. Not once during all the elections held in the North and East since 2009 May Thamil people have rejected the UPFA/SLFP. At the last NPC elections the Thamil people voted the TNA with 78.8% a record breaking support. What the Sinhalese government is doing is to allow the JVP "terrorists" to commemorate the dead, but not the LTTE "terrorists." Over all the government has no moral authority to govern over the Thamil people. Worse appointing an ex-military governor like in the days of British colonial rule is an affront to the Thamil people. It displays the hegemonic attitude of the Sinhalese ruling class.

We take medicine only if there is a sickness! Until the LTTE was completely defeated the army being in the north was a must. But now that it has, I don't see a reason for the continued presence of the armed forces there. Just like medicine being taken when healthy, continued army occupation can create problems and issues but not reconciliation ..

Grievance on the part of Tamils will continue as long as the massive military might is based in the North and East of Sri Lanka. The Government sponsored Sinhala colonisation is like Chinese settling in Tibet which USA separate Buddhist Country.
Tamils do not want separate country but wants a more autonomous region of UNITED Sri Lanka with law and order maintained by police force under NPC Chief Minister.

Are you willing to keep the corrupted regime? Are you ready to overlook justice for the thousands of people who have died during the war? The LTTE has paid for its atrocities, but the Rajapaksa regime should escape for what reasons? As decent human beings we must focus on the next UNHRC, anything else is a waste of time and unproductive in the long term. The foolish and corrupted Rajapaksa brothers have been pushing us to seek international help. If there is no India or the UNHRC, no elections in the North and the regime will do nothing for the Tamils. The regime is talking about the South African model for the Sri Lanka's problem, because of the UNHRC meeting in March 2014. Do we want this kind of leader? I really don't believe any super leader as an opposition leader can defeat the Rajapaksa brothers, because the Rajapaksa regime is corrupted. The criminal regime has too much deals under the table to undermine the opposition. The corrupted criminal regime doesn't value democracy.

In fact the regime does not give a damn for anything including law and order. Furthermore, the regime has less educated ministers in its cabinet than any other government's cabinet in the history of Sri Lanka. Are you happy to let the fools ruling you? The regime is controlling the media, and fooling the people with unbelievable propaganda, but it's propaganda didn't work in the North, because the media in the North does not dance according to the criminal regime. The Rajapaksa regime is a disaster for the country. I don't blame the UNP leader, it is the Rajapkasa criminal regime is doing all the damages. Therefore, we need an international help to defeat the corrupted and criminal regime.
