   These foreign funded NGOs want accountability from everybody else which is OK but they are not even one iota accountable to the Sri Lankan public themselves about where their own funding is coming from. All these foreign funded NGOs should be legally held to account to disclose all their funding sources to the Sri Lankan public.

   Laws should be brought in for all NGOs both locally funded and especially foreign funded, to declare where all their funding in coming from. After all, is that not what yahapalanaya or good governance is all about? Or does yahapalanaya good governance apply only to this UNP treacherous government’s adversaries and those who are working for Sri Lanka to be independent and free from foreign interference only?

   අද අපිට ඕනෑ බුද්දරක්කිතලා සෝමාරමලායි. සිරිසේනත් සොලොමනුත් ඉන්දියානු රූකඩයන්ය. රටේ වෙලහෙලඳාම ඉන්දියානු පරපෝසිතයන් අතරය. හැබැයි ඒඅය හොරබොරු වන්චා නැත.

   MP’s from UNP in COPE Fight 7 Hour Battle with MP”s from JVP and SLFP to Absolve Ex – CB Governor Arjuna Mahendran of Wrong Doing

   By Saman Indrajith

   The UNP team within the Parliamentary watchdog committee COPE fought a losing battle for seven hours yesterday against the JVP and the SLFP over the report on former Central Bank Governor Arjuna Mahendran’s involvement in the treasury bond scams.

   The UNPers, from 11.00 am to 6.00 pm yesterday, tried their level best to absolve Mahendran’s of wrongdoing, but failed to change the content of the COPE Chairman’s report, according to a senior COPE member.

   The UNP team of MPs attacked the very foundation of the COPE report being prepared with the intention of presenting to Parliament on Oct 25. Minister Sujeewa Senasinghe ably assisted by Ajith Perera led their attack while their colleague Dr Harsha de Silva tried to bolster those arguments theoretically.

   They sought to justify the method Mahendran had adopted to auction the treasury bonds.

   Hence, they argued, Mahendran could not be accused of any wrongdoing and held accountable for the subsequent loss.

   Arguing on those lines the UNP MPs demanded certain amendments to the report. The argument was in progress while the COPE members deliberated on the report page by page. Dr de Silva, who had been against Mahendran, chose to support his party members to get Mahendran’s name cleared from the report, according to sources.

   The senior COPE members said adding the JVP together with both Maithree and Mahinda factions of the SLFP had argued cogently and forcefully and demolished the points made by their UNP counterparts.

   TNA MPs of the COPE did not attend the meeting.

   The COPE is to meet against today at 9 am at the Parliament complex.

   Absence of TNA in this important commitee proves their subversive agenda. They have no feeling for the country but their agenda for a CHEATING RACE to raise to suprimacy over majority is clearly proven.

   Well done to JVP and SLFP (JO specially and non-JO who fought) !

   I’m with Gonsal on this.

   TNA is defending their own race since TNA is an openly racist party. They have no regard for corruption or governance.

   JVP has done very well. JO and the other SLFP faction might do horse trading to come to an understanding with the UNP to save them from FCID. People should be aware of this possibility.

   More importantly, the Central Bank must cancel that bon issue and recover the colossal amount of money defrauded.
