Putting up his statue is fine but see that you protect it from crow droppings.

Better to be at Kiribathgoda Junction. So that our dear Dr. can defend the statue.

As a Sinhalese I will say this. This is the only Tamil among Tamil leaders who I have seen since 1070, that I would get up in the morning, go to polls and vote as the president of Sri Lanka. I see a lot of the Diaspora call him a traitor. If you think about it, what did the LTTE do ? waged war and killed and destroyed thousands of Tamil lives for what ? nothing ! isn't that betrayal of the highest kind ?

Kollupitiya fish market has some space in the middle of the car park. How about the location?

I have nothing against LK. He is a great man, but If we keep erecting statues of every dead politician, some day SL will become another Easter Island.

Exceptional human being I respect the most; statues of the great man should be established in the hearts of all true Sri Lankans.

This is sad, neither FM want his statue erected GL or bogalagama.. This issue was there from the time Hon. Laxman Kadrigamar was killed. Ego..

Yes good effort, worth it, no doubt he was a man of dignity who stood for unified sri lanka, a fallen hero indeed.

I have not seen a statue of Mahatma Gandhi in Colombo. Is he reserved for Tamil/Estate Indian Origin? Or is there not a political gain by erecting his statue in Colombo?
