She is an Indian origin. Already Tamil diaspora would have greased her palm. We can predict the outcome of her visit.

Sri Lankans know how unbiased Pillai conducted meetings with exclusively selected people and the sudden change of attitude of TNA leadership and making racist remarks during her presence in Sri Lanka!

She should first visit India and look at the way the untouchables (Daliths) are treated. Once that is sorted out, she can come to SL and lecture us.

Nisha Biswal, pl be with an open mind. Do not meet only the TNA and take there word as Gospel truth. Meet other sections of the country too, and specially the families of those 600 odd Policemen killed in cold blood by Prabhakaran.

Please machchaan why do you always have this pre-conceived notion that all foreigners are anti-Sri Lanka? Don't blindly accept Sri Lankan Govt is honest and good to all its people.
