Hon Mr.Vaiko,
ABERRANT, ANOMALOUS, DUBIOUS BEHAVIOUR OF TAMIL NADU POLITICIANS
You have been a respected Law authority, the Leader of MDMK, and a politician. I wish to take this opportunity to write to you, as we SriLankans are unquestionably, undeniably dissatisfied with the performance of Tamil Nadu politicians.
Please take some time to read my letter to you and understand with pure reasoning, and restructure problems to address your grievances at different angles to achieve an admissible result.
Tamil Nadu politicians have taken high degree of uncalled-for actions in the past and are continuing to practice the same order of abstruse actions against SriLanka, for your own political benefit. The educated world may conclude that it is a competitive struggle within the TN politicians for survival and progress for power.
Firstly, I would like to regurgitate my views:
Do Tamil Nadu people an ethnic group OR a race? Historical study directs to conclude that the state of Tamil Nadu does not constitute a race called ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”TamilƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, but SƒÆ’-¾ƒ”š‚mbhar/ Soup of multi-racial ethnic group. Could it be that the different race is identified through the caste system?
The native Indians outnumbered the invading Aryans, and in order to keep them being swallowed by the natives through intermarriage, the Aryans created the caste system. The natives in order to escape from the Indo-European rule fled southwards who are known to be ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-DravidiansƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚. The Dravidians moved to South India. (Reference: Ancient Civilizations Almanac Vol I by Judson Knight pp190).
Well, no wonder every fervent, frenzied political party carries the name ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-DravidaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ in their party name. The strange view is that only in Tamil Nadu the political parties carry the name ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-DravidaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚. Could anyone give reasons as to why the other South Indian states do not have parties with such name?
You will agree that nomad, Mauryan, Sungas, Kanishka, Gupta, Kushans and several uprising migration into India from Central Asia and other region occurred.
ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-KalappirarƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, (Not Tamils) captured the currently known Chola and Pandiya region during 3-6AD. Their language was Pali. Central and Thondaimandalaum were ruled by Pallavars, who are not Tamils and their language was Prakrit
(Ref: http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/439993/Pallava-dynasty)
(Reference: http://www.omniglot.com/writing/pallava.htm) Please refer below.
Above reference: http://dakshinatya.blogspot.com.au/2011/05/dravidian-languages-written-in-grantha.html )( Stanford B. Steever, The Dravidian languages, pg. 45, London: Taylor & Francis, 1998 )
To study various invasions and dynasties and races, please refer to site:- http://www.gloriousindia.com/history/kushans.html
If Pallavas, Kalapirars and Persians are not Tamils, then who is occupying todayƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Tamil Nadu. WouldnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t you agree that a multitude of minorities have integrated with the Tamil Nadu people and are speaking Tamil, colloquial Tamil, Thanglish and bush Tamil. Well, we can observe that more than 90% of the people in Chennai can speak Hindi. There are multitude of races in Madurai, Koyamutthoor, and other places. They speak their mother tongue at home and speak Tamil in public. Some speak Hindi in public.
The true sons of soils are the todayƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Dalit, untouchables and the lower caste People in India. The Brahmins who wanted a stable life created fictitious fairy-tale stories of illusionary practices to make sure that paid poojas integrated with cultural functions and their presence is required, while kept in isolation as superior caste.
What is the necessity to list people into different caste in TN, may be over 134 castes in TN? You have to list out the benefits. I can only picture an oppressive and discriminatory environment in TN.
Well, the true story is that the upper caste wants to hold onto power through wealth, land and police power, and uphold the lower caste oppressed for slave labor.
If Indian definition of caste system is true, isnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t true that the Brahmins are engaged in toilet cleaning in Delhi, Andra and other places. Brahmins are identified as the newest toilet cleaners in India. (Reference: (i) http://churumuri.wordpress.com/2007/05/01/meet-the-brahmins-indias-newest-toilet-cleaners/) (ii) http://www.francoisgautier.com/en/the-dalits-as-brahmins-and-the-brahmins-as-dalits )
I would like to draw your attention on the facts about who Paraiyars are: (Reference: http://www.devendrakulam.org/uploads/Who%20are%20the%20Paraiyars.htm). It is the same Brahmins made the warriors of the Chola dynasty to be a lower caste because they (warriors) did not accept Brahmins as a superior caste. It is not the purpose of this letter to open up research topics, but to refer and correlate the different fictitious unwritten laws made by the unwise Indians.
Now where do we march to? Should Brahmins and anyone who cleans toilets be stamped as todays lowest caste?
I wish to draw your attention on the killing of lower caste students at the Chennai law college. This is the cruelest, merciless, devastating act by foolish Tamil students at the Law College. Please refer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abXf_RamTCc&feature=related
I also wish to draw your attention to the killing of dalits in Asam who wanted more pay in the tea plantation sector.
(Reference: http://www.youtube.com/verify_age?next_url=/watch%3Fv%3DSilFqTvtzHc)
A young dalit girl chased and beaten up in Asam
Viewing the killing of the lower caste students at the Law College is ravaging, vindictive, and vicious and outside the acts of humankind. You and the rest of the Tamil Nadu politicians are shouting for ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Human Rights (HR)ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, but do Indians practice Human Rights. The YouTube clips indicate the absence of HR in India. These are only a few examples. You could view unaccounted number of HR violations in India. It is a surprise that UNHRC turns a blind eye on these issues in India. Could India be marked as the principal country for Human Rights Violation?
As a respected law authority and the leader of a political party, would you continue with a blind eye to this distressing practice?
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The interesting part here is that the scheduled low caste and Dalit are the majority. The elites are the minority in India. However, the minority becomes the rulers through democracy. How is it possible Mr. Vaiko? Even in the case of monarchy, it is the same situation, where one man rules the country. Therefore, democracy is a perverted form of Monarchy in some countries.
As we tour on the streets of Chennai, we could see thousands of people sleeping on the road. The gap between the rich and the poor is quite wide. Every film star (comedians) is eager to enter politics to accumulate wealth. IsnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t that true Mr. Vaiko? (May be, we could exclude you on this). However, we read news in media of the bribery and corruption in India.
Tamil Nadu and India in general, has had governance through a dynasty-resembling regime. The reign may have started with poverty and over a time built up their resources (wealth). The degree and percentage of illiteracy within the total populace could be a limitation and a drawback to elect a good administration to govern a large democracy.
TN people give the impression to have their priorities mixed up for the reason that they are perplexed and mystified. An ordinary citizen in Australia, UK or USA is resourceful and multitalented with political, social, Technical and environmental knowledge. However, people in TN lack that knowledge. One obsession is that they are all-around within cinema. It is sickening, sordid, ghastly and nauseating.
Democracy is a set of principles and practices that protect human freedom and institutionalization of freedom. It is to rest upon fundamental principles, not uniform practices. Democratic societies are committed to the values of tolerance, cooperation, and compromise.
It is also a reality that democracy recognizes diversity as an enormous asset, treats these differences in culture, identity, and values as a challenge, which can strengthen and enrich, however, not as a threat.
India proudly boasts that it is the biggest democracy in the world. Do you think Indians truly practice democracy? Do you think that people in India really enjoy all the elements within democracy? If you think, then where do Dalit and lower caste stand within democracy? Do all people have freedom and freedom of the press in TN? What is the itinerary of politicians becoming rich?
TN is freely on a commotion and has protest marches against SriLanka for no reasons. However, they have forgotten that TN itself ill-treats the SriLankan refugees in camps, oppress and discriminate Dalit and low caste people. It is an uncluttered view that the rich and the politicians in TN do not maintain law and order and practice Human Rights. If so, the police will not standstill while students beat Dalit students to death at the law college.
During the recent visit of our President, you travelled all the way to Maharastrira to launch a protest march. Tamils in Tamil Nadu beat every SriLankan who come to TN. People who travel to TN on religious tour are being harassed, threatened and sent back. Do you not find this type of act a low, abasement and indicate miserable, depressed syndrome symptoms. Seeman who has failed in TN politics want to keep himself in the media active only through expressing improper, untrue statements of SL. Are majority of the people in TN illiterates, and cannot think and understand with pure reasoning?
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ TN politicians speak of war crimes, human rights violation, discrimination etc. It is our belief that Vellupillai Prabakaran (VP) and his associates and accomplices within and outside LTTE are war criminals. The question is: Can the people who associated with the LTTE in the past, and who operate currently on a different platform with the same goal, construed as war criminals? The speculation was that you were with VP in the jungles of Vanni and along with other LTTE cadres. Below is a photograph. Where does this leave you Mr. Vaiko?
(Ref: http://canarytrap.in/2009/03/02/photos-of-mdmk-leader-vaiko-with-prabhakaran/)
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Tamil Nadu population flows over 70million excluding the rest of India. Tamils in SriLanka, now totals around one million. If Tamils need a separate country, then it is not in SL, South Africa, Malaysia, Singapore, Canada, UK or any other state.
The only socio-economic and technological feasibility is to establish a separate country in India, which is Tamil Nadu, because over 70 million people definitely need a separate country.
Tamils in SL cannot exist even as a separate Provincial Council. We cannot even grow peanut in the North, except a low quantity of agrarian products, which is inadequate to feed the Tamils in Jaffna.
Therefore, strong suggestion is for you to concentrate in establishing a separate country in India. Ie Tamil Nadu. It will be a waste of time and money spending time on matters relating to SL.
Please follow that ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-KNOWLEDGE IS POWERƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ in achieving your separate state in India.
Kind Regards
Yours Faithfully
K. Balanathan

Very good Bala.
But I don’t think psycho Viko has the brains to understand this. We should help him launch Tamil Nation struggle in Tamil Madu.

Good Muslims have done something good protesting against barbaric Muslims who attacked Buddhists in Bangladesh.
Thank you.
October 3rd, 2012 at 7:05 pm
The real motive of the writer is revealed at the end. He first says the 70m people are of different ethnic groups speking tamil in public. At the end he says they should unite to fight for a country. This is nothing but Prabhakarans idealogy to break away from India. He uses Lankaweb to rally Tamils for the cause.
October 3rd, 2012 at 9:15 pm
Aloy:
I think you have misunderstood my article contents. Prabakaran was a fool who was incited, indoctrinated and intoxicated by the Tamil Nadu politicians to fight for Tamil Elam. Basically, the driver was Tamil Nadu, shouting Tamil, Tamil. We think terrorism has been eradicated, but not fully. LTTE cadres are hiding everywhere. Vaiko, Nedumaran, Seeman etc are inciting and intoxicating Tamil Diaspora to drive towards separatism.
Tamil Nadu people should not interfere with SL and cause trouble. May be you could not understand my political logic, but there are lots to it. I cannot explain everything matey. Trust me.
SL should strengthen its military presence in the North:- Army, Navy and a sound air force base.
October 3rd, 2012 at 9:57 pm
Bala,
Thank you for trying to convince.
But reading your last two sentences, is it not a seperate Tamil state you are promoting?. Considering our history, if it happens, that will be the begining of SL’s troubles.
October 3rd, 2012 at 10:43 pm
Aloy,
He didn’t say anything to support a Tamil state in SL.
Tamils NEED a Tamil nation. There is no question about that. The question is where.
One day there will be a Tamil nation either in Tamil Elam or Tamil Madu (or BOTH!)
Trying to stop that won’t work. Denying that is foolish. Our ONLY option is to help them have their Tamil nation where it was – Tamil Madu. They should NOT be allowed to have ANY trace of it in the Sinhale island.
SL is the Sinhala nation. Tamil Madu is the Tamil nation. It was the Brahmin Hindi caste racists who ruined it for Tamils in Tamil Madu. Tamils are UNABLE to fight them. So they take it from little SL.
In history we ALWAYS DEFEATED the Tamil nation. It was smaller than India and BEATABLE. But India is UNBEATABLE. And India dances to the tune of Tamils.

Aloy
Lorenzo has explained it very well.
Now Tamil Nadu politicians are all around to destroy SriLanka, joined hands with the Tamil Diaspora. India has a very strong constitution where anyone who challenges its sovereignty will be arrested under pota section. Why several MPs in TN were arrested previously.
SriLanka can never, ever be divided, and had never been divided. Historically Indians stormed SL, but never able to succeed in conquering. SriLanka is one country, one nation and all are SriLankans.
Do you think Tamil Nadu will become a separate country ever? Never, ever, why? Because most people in TN are not Tamils. They are proud in saying that they belong to Bharatham, unlike we SriLanka Tamils, not patriotic, loyal but try to destroy SL and want a separate state.
All those Diaspora who are against SL had free education up to University level.
Aloy, why don’t you come out with your true name? No point in hiding under a false name. Please read my articles in Lanka web.
Aloy, I do not need to convince you, should I? Why?
You may be an Indian under false name trying to implicate people. That’s what LTTE overseas are doing now.
Further politics may be thousand light years from your understanding.
Please follow Indian politics.

Dear Bala! Great article and you correctly said that Vaiko is a war criminal who associated with the terrorist gang. Not only Vaiko, M.Karunanidhi, Jaya Lalitha, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, Adela Balasingham, Eric Solheim, Robert O’ Blake are suspects for the war crimes in associated with LTTE terrorist gang who killed more than 60,000 innocent Sri Lankans.
Your 4th Oct comment is exactly correct. You realized and you have a correct vision Bala. For the real reconciliation we need more tamils who have realistic, correct vision similar to you Bala. Then only Sinhala and tamils can live peacefully in our country.
Vaiko and other tamil country politicians wants more Sinhala and tamil blood for them to sail on their boats to tamil nadu parliament. M.G.R, Karunanidhi, Vaiko and Gandhi were cheer leaders to LTTE but at the end Sri Lankans ended up in the scenario they lost many thousands of their own Sinhala and tamil children. Tamils overall got nothing.
“Tamilan Illatha Nadillai, Anaal Tamilanukkenru oru nadu illai” There is no country without Tamil but there is no country for the Tamils. The only solution for this, Vaiko, Seeman and other tamils have to start their freedom fight against New Delhi rulers. 60 million Tamils in tamil country have a right for their “self determination” and declare tamil traditional homeland tamil nadu as their country.
October 4th, 2012 at 6:08 am
Lorenzo, Sri Rohana,
I really do not understand this logic. Both of you agree that Vaiko is a war criminal and did everything against SL. But at the end think that he should lead a seperatist campaign in India to free Tamils. It is in our interest to prevent it, as an independant TN will be our number one enemy. I do not know about Kanthar, most of SL tamils, South Indians got together and gave the best shot at SL. Because we had a courageous leader and an excellent team they did not succeed. Now they seem to be singing a different tune. I think we should not think about South Indian politics and mind our own development work. It was neglected for thiry long years.
Kanthar,
I have just read your impressive profile. Perhaps you graduated from SL making use of our free education system before migrating to NZ. That may be the reason you are so passionate about SL. To say a little about me at your request, I was born in a sleepy little village 35km north of Colombo to a true Sinhala family. All my three daughters and wife are born Buddhists and we now live in five countries. I have been immensly benifitted from the free education system of our country. So my effort here is to repay in whatever the way I can unlike the tamil diaspora. You may google Aloysius Hettiarachchi and read some articles I wrote in this site and Island newspaper.
Your statement “All those Diaspora who are against SL had free education up to University level.” is a good one and should be sent to UNHCR when they scream discrimination next time.
October 4th, 2012 at 7:09 am
Aloy,
“But at the end think that he should lead a seperatist campaign in India to free Tamils.”
No one said that!
“an independant TN will be our number one enemy.”
Sure. India IS our #1 enemy today. Which is worse? India as our enemy or TN? India.
If you still can’t agree, consider the TRIED AND TESTED practice of DIVIDE AND RULE. SL cannot take on India but can easily take on TN. We have done that before and we will do it again.
There is yet another side to it.
TN will not get independence that easily. If a Tamil struggle continues, that will eliminate more Tamils and pit them against India. Either way we win.
October 4th, 2012 at 12:44 pm
Bala:
As a fellow Tamil from Sri Lanka, I agreed with the points you made about SL. I still recocnise the Sinhala language is native to the Island of Sri Lanka. SL was seperated long ago from the main land of India. The Kalyani_(Kalaaniya), Rajya was destroyed before the Christ years.
The kings of Lanka never considered the Language issue. A Tamil Bhikku Manama is an issue now. Pallava Kings and thie relatives rules bothe countries for long time.
Christian monkeys now seperate Hindus and Bugstis now,
Kusu dantinu is a historical document and it was sang by a Tamil poet.
So, the Tamil Sinhala issue is a Christian issue.
October 4th, 2012 at 8:25 pm
You said it MUDALI.
I have no knowledge about the caste system in the north, but I am sure of one thing, during the war LTTE leaders were Christians and the Suicide bombers were the Hindus. Brain washed Hindus who left the country still collect money to have their dream country. You will never get anywhere Hindus, even if LTTE had manged to win. because the war was created and backed by Christians to have a Christian State.
October 4th, 2012 at 9:12 pm
Dear Mr Hettiarachchi,
I am happy that I am talking to a SriLanka educated, honest, person. I have been quite polite please. I understand your school of thought and respect your views.
Yes, If Tamil Nadu becomes a separate country; it will be our #1 enemy. I quite agree. However, more to it India is our No1 backbiting, venomous enemy. Tamil Nadu can never, ever become a separate country. If they do, then they will have several enemies around them and they will have no time to think of Elam.
Our previous politicians and leaders made a grave mistake by allowing such terrorism to root in the soil of mother Lanka. This goes to Madam Chandrika Bandaranaike also. It is speculated that late Mr.Pramadasa gave arms to LTTE to fight against IPKF in the 90s.
We all should agree that India has been, and is our No1 enemy. Lorenzo clearly stated this in his comments. We have a hypothesis that Tamil Nadu was helping LTTE. It is more than that. Delhi helped LTTE. Some other groups like TELO, PLOTE were trained by the Indian armed forces in the Himalayas. RAW has met Prabakaran several times and gave advise, artilleries & weaponries and further training. Even today, India is harbouring a group called ENDLF, who are supposed to be vicious and loyal to the Indian defence. LTTE were given several houses in Indira Nagar and were roaming like Indian police or military. Not only LTTE, but also other group members were roaming with weapons on the streets of Chennai and other places. MGR did not help LTTE on his own. He was given permission and supported by the centre (Delhi) to provide all what is needed to LTTE.
The question is: Why did India do all this? Historically, India has been a problem and an eye sore to mother lanka. Even today, they are an eye sore. Who is India to order mother lanka to execute amendment 13 or 13+ garbage? Who is India to tell mother lanka to do things that they want? India has its own human rights violation and problems, but they advise other countries of such violations. Do we not have intellectuals in mother lanka? We do. Why is mother lanka scared of India? Our Tamil politicians run to Tamil Nadu for advise. If they have an issue, they should run to Colombo. NOT India.
In line with section 15 of our constitution, any politician or citizen who advocates separatism could be arrested. However, mother lanka is so generous that she has allowed these fools to run around. Our Tamil fools are giving prominence to caste, Hinduism and language. NOT economy and technology.
In Chennai, law college low caste students were beaten with the police standing by. India does not want to talk about it, but want to talk about mother lanka. Why?
The fear of some of our surrounding neighbour countries is as follows”
1. Mother Lanka was free of bribery and corruption.
2. Mother Lanka had a good public administrative system.
3. Mother Lanka had a good education system.
4. Mother lanka had a good health system
Etc etc
Within our resources, we were able to grow and fill our society with engineers, doctors and scientists. Indian soldiers were disappointed to see every house had a well and a toilet for services, where in India their toilet is roadside or field and water fetched from river, where people wash clothes.
Today Tamil Nadu politicians are eager to carve out mother lanka. Why is Delhi allowing such hooligans to roam on the streets with tiger flags? There is more than what I have said here. Tamil Nadu started their separatism in the late 40s after independence. However, it was crushed. Delhi had a planned invasion of the northerners into Tamil Nadu. TN is now filled with every Tom, Dick and Harry.
Vaiko should start his separatism campaign in Tamil Nadu and leave mother lanka in peace.
Mother Lanka should strengthen its military up in the North. Army, Navy and a sound air base. Every country has the right to select its location to strengthen its military. That is why US, Australian forces are in Afghanistan and Iraq to protect the people from invasion.
Can anyone say that mother lanka has no right to place its troops in the North? No they cannot, and it is the country’s right as per democracy.
Although I was born in Manipay, I grew up in Kamburupitiya and Matara. I had free education, free health, subsidised food in mother lanka and not all what Indians could have in India. Every SriLankan has the right to live anywhere in SriLanka. No one can say that the land belongs to him/her. North and East belongs to the government of Mother Lanka. Not any individual, group, or group of people.
Mr Hettiarachchi, you can contact via my email please, as I do not know yours. I could explain more on this.
Thanks

Dear Mr.Balanathan,
Thank you for your sentiments, particulary about our motherland where you grew up. I have seen your email adrress and will comunicate with you at the earliest opportunity. Perhaps we will meet up when I visit my daughter and son in law in the near future ( they are in the same city where you are writing from). In the mean time please try to convince the fallacy of the endeavour by diaspora againt SL and try to win them over to support development in SL. Forget about India.
GOSL is going to start an Engineering Faculty in Kilinochchi, perhaps the diaspora can help to establish a Nanotechnology department by bringing in staff. Someone has to take a lead like the eccentric prince who established a naval school in Portugal in 14th or 15th century. That helped that country and the rest of Europeans to dominate the seas and concur the world.
Thanks,
Aloy

Mr. Hettiarachchi,
Thanks for your comments.
Yes, there are several organizations floated by fanatics to incite, indoctrinate and intoxicate, young generations and illiterates including those who had free education in SL. We are all working on one goal. One Country, One Nation and it is SriLanka.
I am concerned about a statement you made: “Forget about India”. I am not sure this was a friendly statement or out of love on India. Whatever, my view is that you have no right or authority to make a statement like that, unless you are a politician within GOSL, in which case I know the reasons.
You are a Civil Engineer, worked in Brunei and now a Director of a Civil engineering organization. My view is that Nedumaran, Vaiko, Seeman and the lot should shut up and mind their own business, and Delhi should order them to shut up and not promote separatism in SL. If Delhi does not do that, they have so many enemies around them, and in time to come they will give them problems.
I think you should concentrate on your Civil Engineering business. Diaspora is already working on multidisciplinary investments in SL.
If possible, please send your SIL’s name and phone number, so that I can contact you when you are here. I am a retired Director of a Power Systems Engineering Consultancy in Australia.

Mr.Balanathan,
“Diaspora is already working on multidisciplinary investments in SL.”
This is very good news. As an Electrical Engineer, you should try to get them to work on the Nanotechnology project I wrote about. This is an expensive course in UK, about 30k pounds a year. I know of a girl who spent that much for the first year, did very well in the exam and got full scholarship up to PhD thereafter. Our students can do very well in that field.
Tamils helped our ancient kings to conquer parts of South East Asia which we held for over 200 years. According to Mahavamsa the whole of east coast was one ship building yard during King Parakramabahu’s time, but we did not have navigational skills and that power declined.
Our people should work together again and build our nation. My advice “forget about India” should not be taken out of context. It was a friendly statement and not an authoritative one. If India is one country they will have enough problems to worry about without thinking about SL.
I am now writing from Colombo, will be in Brunei end of the month. I will send email with details later.
Thanks
Aloy

Mr Hettiarachchi
You wrote; “If India is one country they will have enough problems to worry about without thinking about SL”.
I think you do not see the picture. As I said politics is thousand light years away from you. You still do not realise the problems SL is faced with because of Tamils in Tamil Nadu and Diaspora. TGTE is operating in Tamil Nadu. You are only interested in making money.
Speaking to some friends here: they are surprised with your comments. Do you think SL is self-sufficient in their basic needs for the people? Why do we depend on aids and loans from the World Bank and countries?
Nanotechnology is not going to build the nation. Every SriLankan should understand with pure reasoning. Currently look at the politicians. Every politician who is not in UFPA is against GOSL, aiding and abetting to destroy the country.
Therefore let us get our priorities correct. Immature and uneducated people should not try to advise the government. The current regime under the leadership of HE the President is on the correct path, and SL is on the path of development. So much has been achieved by GOSL. Let us climb up via steps.
I do not expect any reply to this. Let us not waste our time on your Nanotechnology.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:04 am
Dear Mr Balanathan,
I am curious to know whether you feel safe to visit Ceylon and in particular Jaffna? Do you believe the Ceylon Tamils are atleast prepared to discuss the issues surrounding their origins?
April 5th, 2013 at 2:17 am
Kanthar is a very interesting Jaffna Tamil who does not want him to be called a Tamil but a Sri Lankan and then goes onto say that he is an Australian then he writes to President Obama and says that he is a great lover of the US? All that clearly shows that he is in a state of confusion and conflict. The irony is that this is the person who forcibly putting his nose to enlighten both Tamils and Sinhalese and even Indians but mostly trying to enlighten and correct the Tamils. Being a Tamil and he being a clearly identifiable eccentric Tamil, obviously he sees things in a better but in a distorted perspective. He only reminds me the three blind men who described an elephant. Of course he has all the right to express his views and beliefs and even theories but he must at least learn to respect the intelligence of other users of this and other forums. Whom he is trying to please? Is he aiming the Sinhalese or who else? Obviously any Tamil who is not of his mind set will simply ignore him as a nutty man who is whiling away his retired time in writing these worthless pieces that many including even his Sinhala audience won’t care to read. I do agree that in between his utterances he writes some sense but his non-sense was so huge that his little wisdom gets totally buried and goes unnoticed. Why he has never ever mentioned about the repeated anti-Tamil violence and how moderate Tamils were pushed to the extreme? Has someone instructed him not to write about that? For him every one seems to be a fool or an idiot or an imbecile. That itself is a clear proof of his mental state. Either he suffers from severe inferiority complex or non-existence superiority complex. He boasts himself as a educated wise guy!
Hartley College itself is very well known to produce eccentric guys and this Kanthar is not an exception. Did he attend a university in SL? Has he faced any of the numerous communal violence? Was he there in Vanni when the biggest humanitarian operation was executed to salvage the Tamils from the LTTE by Rajapakse regime, who claims to be his President! Then he says that he is an Australian! Can he enlighten the ignorant folks why he left Sri Lanka and when he left and what was his position when he left? I know Nigeria was a haunting ground for some off quality Engineers and technicians from Sri Lanka so when this man boasts that he served in Nigeria too to President Obama then in what capacity did he serve there? Then what made him to come into Australia instead of serving his mother land for which Kanthar is shedding tears day and night? Why can’t he go back to Sri Lanka and join Rajapakse Regime and push out all the imbeciles surrounding Rajapakse (that includes Sinhalese and some Tamils like Karuna, Douglas KP, Sangary) and take over from them to guide the country in a right intelligent dharmista direction. I don’t know whether Kanthar will agree with me when I said there are imbecile Sinhalese too because he was always talking of Tamil imbeciles only.
Kanthar the best place for you is Sri Lanka and not Australia. You are boasting and putting out plenty of cheap labels about your professional skills and so on and do you know that there is an urgent need for a very capable Electrical Engineer like you back hom?. So this is the time man. If you are a real Sri Lankan and if you r claim of Mother Lanka is true and if your president is Mahendra Rajapakse then Kanthar this is the time to show your colours. You are wasting your great professional talent by shooting unwanted and misleading letters to every Tom Dick and Harry like your country man Ananda Sangaree. Kanthar now that you are retired and wondering what to do with your free time I suggest that you catch the next flight to Colombo and a beeline to Noraicholai.
Kantharo Kanthar..Kantharuntha Kanthar!

My Dear Alloy,
You are at least one gullible I have picked up who has swallowed the rubbish uttered by this Kanthar. He is writing nothing but non-sense and lies. He is not balanced at all and I am certain that he has certain objective, not the well being of SL but his personal well being! Please realise “All that glitters is not gold”!
[The fear of some of our surrounding neighbour countries is as follows”
1. Mother Lanka was free of bribery and corruption.
2. Mother Lanka had a good public administrative system.
3. Mother Lanka had a good education system.
4. Mother lanka had a good health system
Etc etc]
Look at his argument and analysis. He is a foreign policy expert too. Mother Lanka but he does not want to serve Mother Lanka. There is a famous saying in Tamil that Kanthar must be too aware of:
“While mother was begging for food Son went on a pilgrimage to Kasi (Varanisi)!”
This is exactly who Kanthar is!
