    Is it a coincidence that one of the scouts has the same family name as the chief commissioner?

    We Shingalese Buddhists should be thankful to the British for giving us a unified country which we only for brief periods in our history had. We then in order to project our fictional glory and superiority plundered, killed, lied, deceived and corrupted this legacy and impoverished our country
