Are there anti Mahinda Rajapakse agents infiltrating into Lankaweb ?
Posted on November 16th, 2016
By Charles.S.Perera
The article Maithripala Sirisena desecrated SLFP of SWRD Bandaranaike-it ceased to exist on 16 January,2015”, is to say that SWRD took away his Sinhala Maha Sabha from UNP to form the SLFP a radically different political party with a socialist leaning, as he thought that the pro-western capitalist system of UNP is not suitable to an Independent Sri Lanka.
SWRD confirmed the SLFP’s socialist trend by joining with the LSSP and the Sri Lanka Communist Party. SWRD never expected any one inheriting the leadership of his SLFP to go back to UNP to form a government along with them. Therefore Maithripala Sirisena who left SLFP to join the UNP and the opposition has no right to lead the SLFP. The only way out now for the true members of SLFP is to displace Maithripala Sirisena from the leadership of SLFP, giving it back to Mahinda Rajapakse the last leader of SLFP, or form a new political party which would include the policies of SWRD, lead by Mahinda Rajapakse.
That was what the article was about.
When the article appeared on Lankaweb, the first to comment on it was Gonsul statating that, there is a notable difference between MR and SWRD…..and a long tirade without any connection to what the article was really about. Then Lorenzo joined in with his point by point list showing the difference between SWRD and MR. Thereafter all the comments were about the comments” of Gonsul and Lorenzo.
Some of the articles on the Lanakweb which are often against the present Yahapalanaya set up, and in appreciation of the political, social,and economic contribution of MR, are mutilated or invalidated by the Comments of Gonsul and Lorenzo. This continues, Lorenzo brings in Gota into the picture but the intention in doing so is perhaps not so much to make a hero out of him, but eventually to make Gotabhaya Rajapakse unpopular.
When articles written painfully” to express dislike of what is happening in the country in the name of democracy, disappear in the smoke of some comments, one begins to wonder what good it serves to speak out against a system that seems to be settling down to destroy Sri Lanka, rather than take it forward as a united country, where there is peace and security.

Charles,
I have COMPLETE faith in GR and he should be the next president solely because he has said OPENLY that 13 amendment should GO. The ONLY one to say so!
Lalith Weeratunga -MR’s secretary also said 13 amendment is a WHITE ELEPHANT.
But MR failed to say or do anything about it and because of that he LOST. Thank god his 13 PLUS failed!
I have said many times I’m NOT against MR and NOT for MR. ANYONE who saves SL from 13 amendment gets my support. GR is the ONLY well known personality to say so and I FULLY SUPPORT him.
MR LOST because he had YESMEN around him. They NEVER criticized MR when he was doing BAD things (he is a human). A good friend says NO if you are doing BAD (or not doing GOOD).
I DID work for My3 to win the election as MOST SLs (6.2 million) did. But I NEVER supported this crooked UNP govt. to come to power.

Dear Charles,
Please accept my apoology if I have created rage in you unknowingly, that was not the intention of comments.
Unfortunately you are against democracy. You expect people to live according to your own set of rules the main rule is MR CANNOT BE CRITISIZED NO MATTER WHAT.
I don’t see such a rule appeared anywhere and I have seen many other commentators broken that rule much more than I did.
If you forget about a “Gonsal” you can read all articles and see that many commentators make comments totally irrelevant to the topic. But you are critical of Gonsal and Lorenzo, simply because their stressing of the common point of view that
“Mahinda Rajapakse shall not be considered for the leadership again by people without a promise to scrap 13A and work for the Sinhala majority voted for him”
This is all both commentators are saying and your rage and efforts to STOP the critisizers is deplorable. The way you are proceeding is dangerous.
Actually Lorenzo has commented “untruth” elsewhere under an article ( which was not written on Norochllai Plant , but “INTERVIEW”- “CHINESE AMBASSADOR HAS ACTED WITHIN THE AMBIT OF DIPLOMACY” ) in support of MR. I have revealed all the known TRUTH on this. Please read with calmness, thinking logically. Read my comments, in particular, I have let one of my comments to go through the editor accidentally but he ( or she) has allowed it. If you follow my comment , you will understand how immoral fraudesters try to make a living by appealing to agents cheat their own people and betray their motherlands
If you say I am an anti-MR agent, it is more than justifiable to claim that YOU ARE A MR AGENT. One can very easily suspect this READING ALL YOUR ARTICLES and READING THIS ARTICLE , in particular.
I am sorry, this too is simply a comment.
My only aim is to tell the TRUTH, whether it is anti-MR or anti-Current Government. I am an friend of MR but I feel he should retire now.
Finally on your statement
“Therefore Maithripala Sirisena who left SLFP to join the UNP and the opposition has no right to lead the SLFP” , he DID NOT JOIN UNP but he was stripped of SLFP membership and later MR gave the membership and then the leadership back to him. Ananda-USA ask me to give credible inforation source and I have given it and he had no further comments on it.
I am not sure whether MR did it in accordance of the constitution of SLFP ( i.e. He followed the proper proceedure, I doubt so knowing him) but IT IS BECAUSE OF HIM THAT ALL THESE HORA PALANAYA THRIVING NOW. Your passing of blame to other people is a joke.
November 16th, 2016 at 1:49 pm
My thanks to Editor/ Moderator being fair and A GREAT PATRIOT OF MOTHERLAND.
I beleive TRUTH shall be allowed to be published on the WEB to educate people, UNTRUTH may be allowed too depending on the authority of the site even though it is immoral, people should have simple wisdom to differntiate between LIES and TRUTH.
He or She has done it beatifully.
P.S: My personal belief is ONE SHOULD NOT LIE even if when fighting not for oneself but for their motherlands. When our intention is PURE and we tell the TRUTH to best of our knowledge, there is more chance of sucess. TRUTH is valued by all religions and all human value systems.
November 16th, 2016 at 2:12 pm
Well said Charles, in the interest of our Motherland that we Patriots love PASSIONATELY!
Patriots commenting at LankaWeb have exhibited monumental patience at the outright deviousness, lies and denial of their oast activities by Lorenzo and his CREW of assorted AVATARS. Finally, their outrage is boiling over. It is TIME for that on LankaWeb, as it us in Sri Lanka.
For a long time, in the interest of fair play, they have tolerated the undermining of the Patriotic cause. They have also been constrained by their innate decency in criticizing Lorenzo, Gonsal and others. But that only ENCOURAGES these uncover ÉELAMIST AGENTS, and Yamapalanaya and JVP activists to greater transgressions.
Nothing is SACROSANCT to them, as they ATTACK, FABRICATE ALLEGATIONS and DEMONIZE everyone who can lead the Patriotic cause in Sri Lanka to help us regain our Motherland.
I have long been in the forefront of defending Sri Lanka online. I was reborn on May 19, 2009 on a higher plane of happiness and tranquility when finally the Tigers were uprooted and utterly destroyed. But now, the same anti-national forces thst confounded and prevented Sri Lanka remaining g an undivided nation, are again at work, conniving, undermining and demonizing our patriotic leaders and our people.
The must be stopped cold in their tracks. Let it begin at LankaWeb!
November 16th, 2016 at 3:25 pm
I too thank LANKAWEB editor and moderator for allowing DISSENTING views.
Otherwise it will be ONE SIDED like TAMILNET.
Or HILARIOUS CLINTON’s campaign – blissfully unaware what is going on OUTSIDE the well.
Gonsal,
UNTRUTH? No. The capacity of Norocholai was DOUBLED and the cost also DOUBLED. Fair. So MR did the RIGHT thing.
You had $500 million which you got from a correct source (NOT politicians) but then you used CBK’s figures ($280 million) to calculate the cost of MR’s work!! Use $500 million.
I hope Gonsal, Sirih, Charithsl and other HIGHLY PATRIOTIC and REALISTIC people will continue to comment. Otherwise we will be living in a fools’ paradise and BLAME VOTERS when we lose the election like HILARIOUS CLINTON.
The world is what it is thanks to REBELS not FOLLOWERS.
Ananda-USA,
Remember you and some patriots started a BLOG in 2010? It collapsed on day 10!!! Why? Because you as its moderator cut down all others when they disagreed with you. After that its only owner, visitor and commentator was you!!
November 16th, 2016 at 3:57 pm
Stealth Ops in the name of Democratic Debates going on in the L’web !
All the tricks of the trade are in operation.
Chameleons galore !
‘Lanka for Sale’ is the End Game.
Yahap Dream Theme :
5,000 acre lots on 99 yr leases to foreigners !
November 16th, 2016 at 4:08 pm
Lorenzo,
It is partially UNTRUTH.
It has nothing to do with CBK figure as I cannot confirm this and I said so, stating it as an assumption.
Nevertheless, 300 MW was not doublelled but tribelled to 900 MW.
Cost also became 3 times, which you DID NOT SAY.
Now, remember, first contract was to do 300 MW with infar structure to 900 MW. Therefore it should not be 3 times but much less than that.
MR did not do the RIGHT thing not because he did a bigger plant but becuase its bad reliability and is a headache to the country.
We cannot say it is RIGHT THING without considering ALL possible alternatives available that time.
November 16th, 2016 at 5:31 pm
Tamils paid the price for treating Prabhakaran as god, following him even when he was doing things against their interest. The reason for Mahinda’s fall was because he was surrounded by a bunch of crooked ‘yes’ men. So there is nothing wrong with constructive criticism. Long before January 2015, I wrote several times that Mahinda should not be over confident like Saddam and Gaddafi. I still believe Mahinda was the best post independent leader we had and now it is time he should show his real leadership qualities and take a stand and clearly state what his future plans are.
November 16th, 2016 at 5:43 pm
With you, Charles & Ananda, and all others faithful to a Unitary & Democratic Lanka, and Lanka’s loyal leaders !
Truth & Justice must win !
November 16th, 2016 at 7:27 pm
Fran,
We don’t need JUST a Unitary & Democratic Lanka. We need a UNITARY SINGHELE BUDDHIST nation.
UK is also unitary and democratic. What’s the use?
Truth and justice ALWAYS win.
November 16th, 2016 at 7:38 pm
Charles, Fran and Ananda-USA,
Please read another article published in Lankaweb today by Rathindra Kuruwita courtesy the Island.
It says this in the last paragraph. For the record, this is not my avatar!!
“Just like Mahinda’s 2015, Hillary’s 2016 campaign has no idea what was going on in the real world and judging by the statements made by the Rajapaksa loyalists they are never going to seriously review what went wrong and to come up with alternative strategies. For me this is a good thing because it would ensure that Rajapaksas will be out of power for some time, hopefully forever.”
Thank you Rathindra Kuruwita for telling the truth.
But I want MR to REVIEW what went wrong, FIX them and come back to power. (If they don’t change, they can NEVER come to power.)
So, Lorenzo, Sarath, Gonsal are NOT ALONE. There are many other patriots that think like us. LISTEN to us and change.
Bring GR to the front and tell NR and BR to RETIRE from politics. TRADITIONAL SLFP people don’t like them.
November 16th, 2016 at 8:01 pm
Charles truth will prevail in our Motherland soon and the good real heroes will rule the country again.Nobody can stop MR or GOTA ruling our beloved nation again and bring real peace and harmony to all citizens in this country. The people in this land has realized their mistake already. The ruling traitors who came to power by promising sun and the moon has nothing to offer to the people in this country except misery and empty stomach.
Sira and Ranil both are the same coin. Two cheaters who has two different views and agendas. They will not have a place to hide when the people in this country decides again. Sira should give back the SLFP presidency to MR if that party needs to go forward. Top ten Ali Baba and the thieves including Mr.Dirty harry and his gang of central bank clique should be exposed and give punishment for the good of the country.Their lies cannot take them forward anymore because people have understood their real motives behind those lies. Wake up Sinhalese before these crooked individuals take take our country and us to hell and beyond.
November 16th, 2016 at 9:23 pm
Well said, Ranjith!
Glad to have you back, supporting the REAL Patriots at LankaWeb.
November 16th, 2016 at 9:40 pm
If we are to move forward, we need to look into countries welfare and not the rogues who hide behind patriot name. Patriots are suppose look after our citizens welfare and arrest foreign funded destabilisation since independence.
My primary aim is to defend our institutions and specially defence establishment, foreign affairs , and welfare of the people. Our family have invested millions of dollars in SL, for job creation and also welfare centres in East and this goes back to 40’s and 50’s.
When the war was happening I was advising defence about collecting raw communications and how to intercept including piranha’s satellite communications. Army driver that use to take me around advise me to be careful since my name is leaked to the ltte and take due care and unfortunately my name was leaked by a brigadier and he was later taken out from the forces.
I work closely with GR and extremely happy to have a such a patriot working for the countries interest. Some how after 2011, whole MR’s decency went some where else and wholesale plunder of the countries wealth started to happen. His eldest son and basil are the biggest crooks and you need to ask, why a father ( which is president) allow such a crooks to steal billions ( yes billions) from countries wealth. If I publish what I have with proper document MR is toast but for the sake of the country I will not do so.
That include US$ 3.2 billion bank screen shot with names of son+relative+Vas.
I want our people to look in to the countries welfare and look after our poor, young and old but not support crooks, whatever their former titles were..
November 16th, 2016 at 9:59 pm
Dear Sirih ( I restrain form giving your actual name after hearing the above although fools don’t know who you are),
My knowledge is similar. I am keeping relatively quite too ( although I expose a littel when provoked)
Surely Charles, USA man, Fran will call you an AGENT too.
This eldest son shall be deported. Without Basil MR cannot function, so he should stay. Better still, all migrate leaving GR alone.
November 16th, 2016 at 11:02 pm
Well, what can I say,
The EELAMIST agitators who supported the Yamapalana REGIME CHANGE are ALL BACK HERE singing the same old song; they have ALL BECOME Democrats searching for TRUTH & JUSTICE at LankaWeb!
This is the PARALLEL of what happened in Sri Lanka: The SunGod’s brainless MINIONS who killed tens of thousands of innocentd without a shred of pity, bragged about the invincibility of their UNCEASING WAVES and Black Tiger bombers, cannot be found now.
They are now all become WAILING INNOCENT VICTIMS of Sinhala Discrimination levelling war-crimes charges against the heroic soldiers sailors and airmen who rescued their Human shield victims, bound and tended their wounds and helped to rehabilitate their lives
Likewise, Lorenzo, who with his ARMY OF AVARTARS helped to undermine the war-winning government of Mahinda Rajapaksa, install the Yamapalana Govt that is now DISMANTLING sovereign Sri Lanka, is back here wailing that HE IS THE TRUE DEFENDER of Sri Lanka, demonizing and undermining the REAL PATRIOTIC LEADERS of Sri Lanka to make sure WE PAYRIOTS will NEVER BE ABLE to regain power and MAKE SRI LANKA GREAT AGAIN!
He is now recalling all of his REMAIN ING AVATARS to wage this battle at LankaWeb!
Watch as additional agitators from his old bandwagon now transfer over from TamilNet, some under his old AVATAR names, to sing hosannas to the Dark Force!
I have confronted this demonic crew before, in their many forms, on many websites, and triumphed everytime! I have even shut down my own websites as needed to prevent giving them a platform to disseminate their poison.
Despite all their machinations, we Patriots managed to support the Patriots until the EELAM War was won.
Despite all their machinations, we Patriots will again wage this new War to regain our Motherland, no matter what stands in the way!
November 16th, 2016 at 11:19 pm
All those who hide behind ghost names and for other unpatriotic, ungreatful good for nothing useless individuals has courage and freedom now because of MR and Gota gave the leadership to end the the most hated, evil war for every citizen to live in freedom and peace. For twenty six years so called political gurus couldnt stop the war but simple village boy crushed the mighty LTTE murderers in four years time he ruled this country.Isn’t it a miracle? Without a courageous leader no Army can stop or win a war. Every team has a captain.Team navigates and do things as per the captains orders not on their own. MR has the the guts to lead where others previosly didn’t have even backbone to give orders to finsh it off.
Dirty minds can make up stories to disgrace MR and his family but the ordinary simple folks areeith him for ever not because he is a God but because he brought us freedom and prosperity to my homeland. Sinhala homeland should be protected from Tamil and Muslim fanatics at all cost.Be prepared for the love of the country.
November 16th, 2016 at 11:39 pm
Thank you, Ranjith!
Indeed, all Patriots must again be prepared to LOVE their Motherland PASSIONATELY!
November 17th, 2016 at 12:41 am
Charles,
You are absolutely correct, there is a relentless effort by Lorenzo and Gonsal to systematically DEFAME and DENIGRATE the contributions of Sri Lanka’s PROVEN PATRIOTIC LEADERS including MR, GOTA, WIMAL and others who can help restore PATRIOTIC govt to Sri Lanka.
It is done in a very SLY way, by focusing on an in terminal list of assorted TRIVIAL and OFTEN FAKE COMPLAINTS, completely diverting attention away from the original article.
This is what I had detected from the very beginning of my interactions with Lorenzo and his avatars at LankaWeb and at other blogs over sevetal decades now.
Lorenzo has many pseudonyms including Kumar Moses and Kumar Moshe. He cannot hide his style …. which is as recognizable as a fingerprint! He can run, but he cannot hide!
Now he has summoned a few more of his avatars to come to his aid at LankaWeb, so be prepared for the situation to get WORSE before it gets better. But the EXORCISM of these bahiravayas from LankaWeb should CONTINUE in earnest!
November 17th, 2016 at 2:22 am
Ananda USA, Lorenzo is an anti MR, he is not Sinhala as he pretends. He does not understand Sinhala. Old guy, just ignore him and his avatars. I do not visit Lankaweb as much as I used to for the. same reasons as Charles is concerned about.

ABOUT PUBLICIZING THE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE ON THE CENTER AND PERIPHERY RELATIONSHIP
BY THE SRI LANKAN SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT
The Joint Opposition is requested by the Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement to publish the above mentioned report about the Recommendations by the Sub-Committee on the Centre and Periphery Relationship.and talk as urgently as possible about its extreme dangers to the Mahanayake Theros.
Please keep in mind that even India and Pakistan which are huge, massive countries and who are federal states have retained their concurrent lists. South Africa which is a huge country is a unitary state and has a concurrent list. However tiny, little Sri Lanka is proposing to get rid of the concurrent list as the TNA and the US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada and India wants.
The Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement thinks that the big time scoundrels Ranil, CBK,Sirisena and Mangala are doing what a bunch of stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canadian politicians who have a superiority complex, are neo-colonialists and imperialists want (since these countries are resource and strategic location hungry) in order to please these stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canadian politicians at great expense to all future generations of Sri Lankans and betraying 2600 years and actually 37000 years of independence and freedom of the island of Sri Lanka by partitioning this island which has never ever happened in its 2600 (Sinhala Buddhist civilization) and in fact its 37000 year history (as attested by many pre-historic archaeological findings of iron age, stone age sites).
This is happening degree by degree, surreptitiously and slowly as the big time scoundrels Ranil, CBK,Sirisena and Mangala have planned and happening slowly but surely. We do not feel it since it happens surreptitiously degree by degree. However suddenly these recommendations by the sub-committee to provide extremely great amounts of powers to provincial councils will be included in the constitution as Ranil wants and at the referendum there will be stuffed ballot boxes and somehow the referendum will be passed. Everything happens as Ranil wants it to happen and in order to please the stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada European politicians. This is what the Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement has noticed.
Ranil is fooling the Sinhala people big time by doing this slowly, surreptitiously and degree by degree. This is how the OMP Act was passed. That is how the federal or Eelam constitution will be passed as well, surreptitiously, degree by degree and by use of stuffed ballot boxes.
Our grave suspicion is that the scoundrels Ranil, CBK,Sirisena and Mangala have already promised the US,UK,EU,Sweden, Norway and Canadian politicians, the TNA and all other separatists that the recommendations of the sub committee to provide extremely great amount of powers to provincial councils will happen as planned. Therefore it will happen as planned.
The only way to stop these big time scoundrels Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala is to publicize in the Sri Lankan media that this is what they are planning to do and shout out as loud as possible i.e. tell all to the Sri Lankan media, especially the Sinhala media so that this treacherous plan is exposed and the scoundrels Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala then will have to answer to the Sri Lankan public, especially the Sinhala people and all other patriotic Sri Lankans about this.
ABOUT THE ETHNIC CLEANSING OF SINHALA PEOPLE
The reality is over 25,000 Sinhala people were ethnically cleansed from the Batticaloa district in the 1980’s by the LTTE. Taking into account population growth from 1983-2016, this number is around 35,000 today. Only around a few thousand Sinhala have returned to live in the Batticaloa district so far. Even they are being threatened by the TNA fascist racists. it is very difficult to figure out what to do in the circumstances.
The ethnic cleansing of Sinhala people from the North even today by Vigneshwaran and the fascist, racist TNA is well known by now. In the 1980s over 65,000 Sinhala people were ethnically cleansed from the North by the LTTE and taking into account population growth from 1983-2016, this number is around 100,000 today.
The best remedy is to do everything possible to ensure that the proposed constitution is as unitary as possible and to campaign very hard for that. As long as the constitution is unitary and no more powers are given to the provincial councils, Sinhala Buddhists and even Sinhala Catholics, Malays, Muslims, Veddhas, Burghers are safe. If however, any more powers are given to provincial councils, all of the above and in particular the Sinhala people will be very insecure and unsafe and our future very precarious and uncertain.

Banda was the first to divide Sinhalese after the British left. We and most of the tropical British Dominions are stll Indian colonies like us.
Any comments?
November 17th, 2016 at 10:21 am
I tend to agree with Charles. Recently I forwarded some interesting articles to the editor requesting there publication for the benefit of Lankaweb readers. Nothing got published and I wondered why?
November 17th, 2016 at 12:31 pm
Christie
You say, “Banda was the first to divide Sinhalese after the British left. We and most of the tropical British Dominions are stll Indian colonies like us.”
The statement is too shortand crisp to understand what you actually mean. How do you say Banda divided Sinhala after the British left ?
I think Banda had a mature mind and taking an example the Nation States at the time which united different communities within it under one flag, one language and one national anthem, may have thought making Sri Lanka a similar Nation state. The problems arose only when the Tamils racism raised its head demanding 50-50 and that both Tamil and Sinhala be recognised as the National languages. Banda’s intention was honourable but it was the Tamils who spoilt it. If Banda did not leave UNP Sri Lanka would have remained an undeveloped country ruled by a few rich families.
November 17th, 2016 at 3:35 pm
“Are there anti Rajapakse agents infiltrating into Lankaweb”
I know the corollary (that Lankaweb is only for Rajapakse agents) is untrue. We have been campaigning against Rajapakse in this forum for a long time. In fact I, put up the idea that MS should come as the common candidate first in this forum. And I still think there is no other leader in sight to play that role.
Does anybody talk about the greatest bank robbery that has taken place in our country now. I read the statement made by MR in parliament as in Lanka C news. There isn’t a single word about bond scam. Not even Anura D has mentioned about it. Every one of them has been bought over and the whole burden has been placed on the poor people of SL. Very soon the scammers will start a TV station and Sinhala fools will start enjoying the best Tele-dramas and reality shows. The economic situation in the country today is explained in a write up in the Island news paper today as follows:
“Sri Lanka’s present credit rating of B+ (Negative) by Fitch is the same country credit rating of nearly-bankrupt Greece, after the IMF/EU approved the first $ 350 billion equivalent bail-out in 2010, demonstrating the prospective crisis looming over Sri Lanka in raising funds overseas ($ 5 billion needed annually for interest rate and amortization payments) in the global bond markets, to service and pay off its staggering foreign debt.”
This is what the PM’s economic wizards have been able to achieve despite millions of Rupees some of us send monthly. There are millions of SL housemaids toiling in ME and sending their meager saving monthly to SL. The arguments as above comments only will result RW being the executive PM of the country until he dies of a natural cause. Until that happens the drama in the Diyawanna providing humor by the likes of Mahindananda, et al will continue. I know if Duminda and Mervin were allowed to contest they too would have been doing the same in that stinking shit house.
November 17th, 2016 at 3:49 pm
As I said, a new party selling MR was formed WITHOUT MR!
It has NO MP. I repeat it has NO MP. BR and GLP are not MPs. Even BR has not officially joined it. Inaugural meeting was attended by MORE JOURNALISTS than people!!
So it is a FLOP from the start. JO is too GREEDY to form into a new party because they are too greedy to hold on to PARLIAMENTARY PERKS (including luxury vehicles and vehicle permits).
BR is not going anywhere.
November 17th, 2016 at 3:52 pm
So can we keep TRUSTING the FAILED parliament, president, PCs and other NONSENSE?
We cannot!
The MILITARY is much more honest, achievement driven, patriotic and CONNECTED to the people than the entire political system.
Look at the other 2 THERAVADA BUDDHIST countries – Burma and Thailand. Most of the time they are ruled by the MILITARY! Why not SL? Surely the SL MILITARY is better than ALL politicians.
November 17th, 2016 at 3:58 pm
Aloy,
You say “We have been campaigning against Rajapakse in this forum for a long time.”. In that case, according to “PATRIOTS” like Charles, USA,FRAN ect. on this very acrticle you are qualified to be a anti-MR AGENT.
We know you have mad many statements in the past against MR, and now against RW but these three selfprocalimed “PATRIOTS” have NEVER done that.
Who are the AGENTS ?
About the BANK ROBBERY ( I am not sure if it is the biggest in the history , it is difficult to calculate with predictions needed on the future rates) no one is supporting RW on that. However, I alos know the person who pioneered BANK ROBBERIES and you too know it.
Whoel SriLanka has spoken about bond scam and it is still going on and will go on for a long time. What is needed is action against it. Lets see whether JO’s promised action in Singapore would take place. Surely GOD will stop it because the accused saved him.
November 17th, 2016 at 4:02 pm
Gonsal,
I know you are AGAINST a military takeover. But please consider it with an OPEN MIND. It is more democratic than politics. Actually SL is a DICTATORSHIP today. A TEMPORARY military takeover, fixing the system and hold elections is the right thing to do.
Otherwise we are NOT stopping the robberies. We only REPLACE the robbers!
November 17th, 2016 at 4:02 pm
Lorenzo,
MILITARY is divided too ! Pal Horu, Minii Maruwo , BUGUS PATRIOTS who worship politicians( 2 groups) and very very few real PATRIOTS.
Gota too has become a politican (judging by his latest talk).
Future is very gloomy.
November 17th, 2016 at 4:05 pm
Sure. But can the military go against the Sangha and the people? NO!
They have to stand by the people for LEGITIMACY. That is the only way they can save themselves and survive after they handover power. That will make sure they don’t go against people.
Of course they will also rob. It is NORMAL. Every political party ROBS the country. What matters is what they do when they are NOT ROBBING THE COUNTRY.
November 17th, 2016 at 4:10 pm
Here we go again! Double talk from both sides of the mouth …. at the same time!
The Katussa(Lorenzo) is now criticizing MR for remaining within the SLFP while the Katussa (Lorenzo) was advocating precisely that upto now to prevent a viable new party from being organized.
MR will remain in the SLFP to regain party leadership and form a new government. If that does not happen, he will join the new party to lead it, at the OPPORTUNE TIME!
Moreover, the Katussa (Lorenzo), the man opposed to corruption and wailing about not being allowed to propagate his EELAMIST propaganda FREELY at LankaWeb, is now INCITING a Military coup-de-etat in our democratic nation that has survived 68 years since independence without a military coup-de-etat!
How much SIMPLER would it be for the EELAMISTS to demonize Sri Lanka and get India and Western Powers to intervene militarily if Sri Lanka was run by a military JUNTA?
ONCE AGAIN, the Katussa (Lorenzo) DEMONSTRATES his Anti-National Designs to TIP Sri Lanka into the ABYSS of FAILED STATES and achieve his dream of EELAM!
SOWING maximum CHAOS is his ONLY AIM!
May the Hatarawaran Devatava’s give him his due …. SOON!
November 17th, 2016 at 5:09 pm
What double talk USA?
I always said it is foolish for MR to form a new party and the SLFP should be taken over. BR didn’t listed and formed a SHAM new party!
May the Hatarawaran Devatava’s save SL from USA and its EVILS by destroying them forthwith!
November 17th, 2016 at 5:10 pm
listened not listed.
Had he taken my advice this will not happen. Listen to the interview.
November 17th, 2016 at 5:48 pm
Rajapaksa planning to break away from coalition, says brother Basil
Thu, Nov 17, 2016, 09:30 pm SL Time, ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
Nov 17 (Hindu) Former Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa is planning to break away from the ruling coalition, his brother announced on Thursday, a move that could threaten constitutional reforms seen as crucial to post-war reconciliation.
Basil Rajapaksa formed a new party earlier this month to challenge President Maithripala Sirisena, who ousted his brother from power in January 2015 after a bitterly fought election. On Thursday, he said the former strongman leader would defect from the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) that he once led to head the new party.
Mr. Sirisena formed a unity government with the right-wing United National Party after taking power and is the current head of the SLFP, but more than half its MPs remain loyal to Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksa.
“Our leader is Mahinda”
“Our leader is Mahinda Rajapaksa,” Mr. Basil told reporters in Colombo. “It is the Mahinda Rajapaksa vision that drives us.”
Mr. Rajapaksa tried to become prime minister at parliamentary elections held seven months after his shock defeat, but failed and now pulls strings from behind the scenes as a backbencher.
A formal break-up of the SLFP could deprive Mr. Sirisena of the two-thirds majority required for constitutional reforms he has promised to bring about to ensure reconciliation after decades of ethnic war.
Mr. Sirisena’s administration is currently working on a new constitution to share political power with the island’s Tamil minority and end decades of ethnic unrest.
Mr. Rajapaksa, who turns 71 on Friday, has declined to say whether he will formally quit the SLFP, but the new party — Sri Lanka People’s Front (SLPF) — is being launched ahead of local government elections due early next year.
No comments from Sirisena
There was no immediate comment from Mr. Sirisena, who has previously warned Mr. Rajapaksa against breaking up the SLFP.
Soon after coming to power in January last year, Mr. Sirisena ordered criminal investigations into corruption under the Rajapakse regime.
The former leader’s closest family members face allegations of bribery, extortion and even murder.
Rajapaksa’s two sons — legislator Namal and ex-navy officer Yoshitha — and two of his siblings are currently on bail after being charged with corruption, including money laundering.
Sri Lanka has sought help from the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations and other international organisations to track down billions of dollars said to have been siphoned out of the island during Mr. Rajapakse’s decade in power.

Hi Charles
Thanks.
Before the SLFP was formed the Sinhala Buddhists, Muslims and Christians were united under the UNP and was the major political party. This party had funds of their own. There were some Socialist Parties headed by the like of N M Perera and they were funded by Indian colonial parasites like Captain.
The UNP laid foundations for a prosperous Ceylon with developments like Colombo Harbor, Gal Oya and similar projects, Ceylon Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, KKS Cement Factory, Paranthan Chemical Factory, Central Colleges with scholarships for poor kids, Major Hospitals like Ratnapura Hospital, Junior Technical Schools, Galle Road widening, Ratmalana Railway work shop with Basic Technical Training Institute, Kundasale and similar Agricultural schools and the list goes on.
As soon as SWRD came in to power all these were put on hold at the direction of India and Indian colonial parasites..
Bandaranayake and his cohorts received funds from Indian Colonial Parasites like Captains, Gnanams, ..Jees, …Mals ‘’Manis,,Lingams, …Boys etc etc and India. Today some of these Indian Colonial Parasites are super rich, eg. Gnanams, Abans, Ratnams etc.
Charles; what is the business language of Ceylon and who controls our economy? An Indian Colonial Parasite who imports sugar is caught hands down importing Cocaine worth billions of dollars and the crime does not come under the FCID.

By 1951 it was obvious the UNP has veered from national interest. It became even clearer by 1955. The 1956 SLFP win was a long time coming. However, it is true that the formation of the SLFP divided the Sinhala vote and made minorities powerful. The fault is with some SLFP leaders trying to appease minorities (SWRD Bandaranaike included). It made the UNP and SLFP look similar. Even Sirima in 1970-77 appeased Tamils generously costing her the entire political career in 1977.
November 17th, 2016 at 7:19 pm
Agree with Charles,
“If Banda had not left the UNP, Sri Lanka would have remained an underdeveloped country ruled by a few rich families”.
Moreover, without SWRD’s PEACEFUL REVOLUTION, today Sri Lanka would be a Christian majority country.

Aloy,
Let me understand you. By your own admission, you have been a persistent critic of MR at LankaWeb for a long time.
Also, pursuing that stance you were in your own words “the first” to propose MS as the Common candidate for the Presidency. In your estimate, how has that served Sri Lanka? Is anything amiss, or is all going according to plan? CLEARLY NOT, as you yourself has admitted above.
Therefore, if you are a truly honest person, instead of wailing about the bond scams, economic debacles, and assorted skullduggery of the Yamapalanaya as if you had NOTHING TO DO WITH BRINGING THAT ABOUT, stand up like a man and take some RESPONSIBILITY for the DISASTER you help spawn for our Sri Lankan people.
YELL OUT LOUD at the top of your voice “Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa!” , and BEG for forgiveness from the Sri Lankan people for leadING them ASTRAY into the current ABYSS!
If you TRULY regret your MISTAKE in hoisting MS and the Yamapalana government upon our innocent heads, let us see some REGRET and CONTRITION from you instead of PERSISTING in the same anti-MR arguments you spouted then!
The ability to LEARN from mistakes distinguishes man from beast. Accordingly, a DIRECT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of your GRIEVOUS ERROR and an ABJECT APOLOGY should PRECEDE any further PONTIFICATION on Sri Lanka’s politics from you.
If you don’t do that and BEG FORGIVENESS for your mistake, then you will join the ranks of the willful anti-Sri Lankan undercover agents like the Katussa (Lorenzo) and the Kalawedda (Gonsal) leading Sri Lankans off the proverbial cliff onto the rocks below!
Decide what you want to be, and make AMENDS!
November 17th, 2016 at 8:25 pm
It’s nice to have arguments favor or against in politics but Ananda and Charles should not waste time answering rattle snakes who doesn’t have any love for the Motherland excrpt blaming and make up stories against real heroes who did something to our country. MR did a huge thing for the people and to the country by eliminating the most ruthless terror group in the world. It was not an easy thing. Without guidence and proper vision and good leadership no one can achieve that goal. MR did the miracle which some do not appreciate. So Ananda let the dogs bark we just stay cool and watch what will happen to those dirty dogs when the time comes.It will not be far.The day of feedom and hope under MR or Gota will be dawn to our Motherland soon. SAVE LANKA FROM ALI BABA AND UNP THIEVES. Great to be back with our friends and foes in lankaweb which is my favorite web. Adios all.
November 17th, 2016 at 8:54 pm
Ananda,
As far as I am concerned this is a site where anybody can express their opinion subject to the limits imposed by editor/moderator.
There is a statement above that you operated a website yourself and at the end you were the operator/editor/commentator which you have not denied. From your own admission you are a professional engineer migrated to US, denounced the citizenship of SL and took an oath of allegiance to that country (but scream western imperialism etc). Being a proud product of Peradeniya Efact why did you have to do that?.
In my case I am a citizen of SL and I do not even have a PR in another country. Therefore, I have all the right to criticize or condemn the people who are at the helm of affairs. I too was an admired MR when he stood firm against the world powers but was disillusioned when he became an Alibaba.
I still have hope MS will do the needful at the right time. Though you condemned him as Gamarala, Ayyo Sirisena etc. I believe he is a true Sinhalaya and not a Colombian.
I do not wish to get involved in protracted arguments with anybody. I have not insulted anyone other than politicians and I have done so with reason, therefore I do not have to regret or apologize from anybody.
November 17th, 2016 at 9:16 pm
Aloy,
You are mistaken. This man/woman is not a proud product of Peradeniya Efact. Be careful, he may arrange to kill you. Such is the attitude of MR Lovers.
November 17th, 2016 at 9:28 pm
Ananda-USA is trying to turn this space into another one of his GHOST BLOGS no one visits by NOT tolerating DISSENT.
People around MR were NOT tolerant of DISSENT and prevented MR from getting the BITTER TRUTH. That’s why he collapsed. We should NOT do that mistake again.
Everyone has the right to their POLITICAL OPINION when they make it DECENTLY. If you have a problem with that go to hell.
SL society has always been a TOLERENT SOCIETY using DECENT words to people with different views. That’s how it should remain. Otherwise SL society will become like USA!!
Even TRUMP has highlighted the INTOLERENT MEDIA in USA that cuts down anything DISSENTING to their view.
I regret for supporting Sirisena in 2015 January and I also regrated supporting MR in 2010 by 2014. That doesn’t mean MR should have won in 2015 or SF should have won in 2010!!!
We have to be VERY CAREFUL of Americans coming bearing gifts. We all know what BLAKE, KETCHUP, CLINTON, USAID did.
November 17th, 2016 at 9:32 pm
The GREAT ISRAELI defence strategist Moshe Dayan Ananda-USA always refers to said this about USA.
“Our American friends offer us money, arms, and advice. We take the money, we take the arms but we decline the advice.”
This should be SL’s approach. Even HIV came to SL from USA! So please be aware of generous Americans come bearing gifts.
November 17th, 2016 at 9:46 pm
Can we keep the discussions away from insults and have a meaningful dialog ? Most SL’s have their moral compass toward the wrong pole, theft of poor countries resources are not forgivable specially from the ruling class.
Law and order is almost collapsed since you can bribe the lawyers and judges to get favourable verdicts and poor police being harassed to a point they they only answer to the ruling class.
Rape, theft are part of the ruling class MO, and it applies to almost all the political parties.
UNP never did anything good for the country and Ranil is a anglican behaving like a Buddhist ,which he is not. MS is a stooge and a cornered man and this is very dangerous for the country.
Do not want any of MR kind again and only hope is GR getting in to the bear pit and run for the presidency or PM post.
November 17th, 2016 at 10:01 pm
Charles too is not the innocent OLD MAN do gooder he pretends to be.
I remember in around 2011 he too threatened Lorenzo and Fran ( I don’t know why) saying that he recieved an email from higher up ( MR ) that too much critisizm of MR here and action may be taken.
We have not forgotten. We speak TRUTH.
WHO ARE THE AGENTS ?
November 17th, 2016 at 10:51 pm
Agree with you , Sirih – not for solidariy but you said the TRUTH.
MR is 100% responsible for killing of law and order, to be fair, it is getting slightly better now even though the progress is slow ( due to obvious reason of RW and MS are also products of our system). We had rapists judges, even now there are.
Recent satement from MS is shocking. He says it is because his fiathfuls were sabotaged by MR that he had to bring them in from this list. Who are the faithfuls ?
Lakshman Yapa Abeywardena
Thilanga Sumathipala
Dilan Perera
Vijith Vijayamuni Soysa
S.B. Dissanayake
Mahinda Samarasinghe
just a few comes to my mind.
These are the “fiathfuls” who ruined the country. Including MS most are corrupt.
UNPeers are not 2nd to them, Laxman Kiriella is a shameless crook, so is Ravi K.
There is no introduction need for RW. bank robbery is sufficient .
November 17th, 2016 at 11:18 pm
Gonsal,
I do not think Ananda-USA is a fake. He may have a double. I have discussed in this forum about scientific subjects like Hydrodynamics and Finite Element Analysis which he may be good at. I think he is mesmerized by MR’s charm as he carries a charm bottle. Once you are caught you are there for life.
Peoples views may change from time to time due to their perception of things. For instance I used to be very critical of Dr. Nalin’s theories. He did prove scientifically that one object can exist in two places at the same time (avatars) and went on to say many things about discoveries with help from Saman deviyo ect. I too tend to believe now that there is some truth in what he says due to observations of three people including mine, but on a scientific basis not on divine interventions. Will write about it on a different thread later.
November 18th, 2016 at 12:04 am
Aloy,
You make assumptions, many wrong assumptions about me, but yet you avoided directly answering my comment on your mistaken activities.
You asked personal questions, so I will give you some general answers.
First, I have never “denounced” (you really should say “renonounced”) Sri Lanka citizenship. I’ll let you speculate on all the possible permutations and combinations of the available options.
Second, yes, I am a proud product of eFac at Peradeniya, and still maintain contact there and cooperate with my batch mates in donating the eFac funds and facilities for teaching and research. Suffice it to say, that above and beyond that I have done more for Sri Lanka’s advancement as a successful engineer and investor working abroad than if I had remained in Sri Lanka struggling against the bureaucracy to have my ideas heard and implemented. None of what I have been done would have been possible had I remained in Sri Lanka struggling to live decently.
Third, yes, I maintained a number of Patriotic websites supporting the Sri Lanka government and the War effort over a 30 year period starting from the earliest days of the Internet and the WWW. Most of these sites were closed down after the war was won, as I and my collaborators did not see the same need, nor have the energy, to maintain them.
Fourth, yes, I did close down one of those sites I had setup to support the Sri Lanka Defence Forces, when it became inundated by EELAMIST undercover agents led by Kumar Moses aka Lorenzo. He used many of the same tactics he is attempting now at LankaWeb. I refused to continue giving them a propaganda platform to undermine Sri Lanka. I am confident that it was the correct decision.
Finally, I am now in the waning days of my life, and have no f
need to earn a living or generate an income for my sustenance. I have no political ambitions and do not engage on any political activity beyond blogging at LankaWeb because I care about Sri Lanka’s safety. I am now focused primarily on charitable activities helping many needy rural Sri Lankan families, including disabled war veterans, to give their children an excellent education and employment skills second to none in the country. My goal in doing that is to help create more citizens who will remain committed to Sri Lanka as Sri Lankan Patriots. My wife and I will give away everything we own in the next decade either directly, or through a Charitable Foundation that will continue to serve that purpose when my wife and I are long gone.
As I look back at my life and assess whether I have been a NET ASSET or a NET BURDEN to my Motherland, I have NO DOUBT that I have been a FAR GREATER ASSET to Sri Lanka from the United States than a BURDEN, primarily because I never forgot where my roots, my family and my people were, and where my duty lay in helping my people.
November 18th, 2016 at 12:22 am
Now now USA, you are lying.
You closed down that sites not because I was there or anyone else but because you DISAGREED with others who started the website and you shut them out after changing the common password!!! One of them told me.
I don’t like people discussing PERSONAL STUFF in public websites. So I will only say some of the things you say above about you are WRONG.
Our love should be for SL and not for mere mortals.
November 18th, 2016 at 12:25 am
Gonsal,
I remember that. I couldn’t believe it when Charles said that. IF MR listened to us he is still the president.
Shutting out DISSENT is a the best way to lose elections.
My parents told me that when Sirima was the PM, some of her HENCHOS had told her everything is good, people have enough to eat and happy. But the reality was different. She believed them and CRASHED in 1977.
KALAMA SUTRA should have saved her and the country from UNP disaster.
November 18th, 2016 at 1:01 am
Katussa (Lorenzo),
No one else has to tell you why I shut down the SLPF site, because I told you myself, I your avatar as Kumar Moshe.
I shut down the SLPF blog site, because you and your Army of EELAMIST avatars were using it to undermine the Sri Lankan government and the Post-War peace in Sri Lanka and I was duty bound to stop it.
Just as you are now doing at LankaWeb under your Lorenzo undercover name.
And yes, the easiest and most direct way to shut down any blog site is to DENY password access, which I did.
That is no secret …. I said so above, right here at LankaWeb. I paid all costs of that and my other patriotic websites, so it was entirely within my legal rights.
Hop away Katussa (Lorenzo), and infect TamilNet!
November 18th, 2016 at 1:03 am
Oops, I meant to say SLDF (SriLankaDefenceForum) blog site.
November 18th, 2016 at 2:08 am
Aloy,
Anytime you want to discuss Hydrodynamics or FEM, feel free to contact me at LankaPatriot@Gmail.com .
My PhD at MIT was in fact in Mechanical Engineering in the Fluid Mechanics field, with Mathematics (Pure, Applied and Numerical Mtds) as the minor area.
Scince then, over the last 4 decades, I have developed many large scale computer codes to solve massive systems of coupled PDEs and Integral Equations, using both grid-based and mesh-free methods. I still develop research computer codes that run on personal super computers that I myself have designed and built. The latter use multiple parallel processing general purpose CPUs, as well as multiple massively parallel GPU (graphical processing unit) array processors developed largely by NVIDIA.
My wife (also a PhD) and I are still active in scientific and engineering research for personal interest. We solve very large scale engineering and scientific problems on these computers and publish the results in research journals. These are problems that in the padt could only be solved on very large supercomputers at US National Labs.
November 18th, 2016 at 2:20 am
Further lies from Ananda-USA.
There were NO Elamist or Sri Lankan in your blog. Only you. NO ONE visited it because you had a personal clash with others running the blog and that was the END of it!!
November 18th, 2016 at 3:00 am
Katussa (Lorenzo),
On the Contrary,
You are the LIAR and an EELAMIST to BOOT!. You were there as Kumar Moshe, and you flooded the SLDF site with your avatars, and I shut it done to expelled ALL of you to the chagrin of those who were not of your ilk.
Run Katussa(Lorenzo), RUN …. but you cannot HIDE! You always give yourself away!
November 18th, 2016 at 4:18 am
ABOUT PUBLICIZING THE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE ON THE CENTER AND PERIPHERY RELATIONSHIP
The Joint Opposition is requested by the Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement to publish the above mentioned report about the Recommendations by the Sub-Committee on the Centre and Periphery Relationship and talk as urgently as possible about its extreme dangers to the Mahanayake Theros.
Please keep in mind that even India and Pakistan which are huge, massive countries and who are federal states have retained their concurrent lists. South Africa which is a huge country is a unitary state and has a concurrent list. However tiny, little Sri Lanka is proposing to get rid of the concurrent list as the TNA and the US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada and India wants.
The Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement thinks that the treacherous Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala are doing what a bunch of stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canadian politicians who have a superiority complex, are neo-colonialists and imperialists want (since these countries are resource and strategic location hungry) in order to please these stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canadian politicians at great expense to all future generations of Sri Lankans and betraying 2600 years (of Sinhala Buddhist Civilization) and actually 37000 years (as attested by pre-historic finds, stone age and iron age finds) of independence and freedom of the island of Sri Lanka by partitioning this island which has never ever happened in its 2600 and in fact its 37000 year history.
This is happening degree by degree, surreptitiously and slowly as the treacherous Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala have planned and happening slowly but surely. We do not feel it since it happens surreptitiously degree by degree. However suddenly these recommendations by the sub-committee to provide extremely great amounts of powers to provincial councils will be included in the constitution as Ranil wants and at the referendum there will be stuffed ballot boxes and somehow the referendum will be passed. Everything happens as Ranil wants it to happen and in order to please the stuck up US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada European politicians. This is what the Sri Lankan Solidarity Movement has noticed.
Ranil is fooling the Sinhala people big time by doing this slowly, surreptitiously and degree by degree. This is how the OMP Act was passed. That is how the federal or Eelam constitution will be passed as well, surreptitiously, degree by degree and by use of stuffed ballot boxes.
Our grave suspicion is that the treacherous Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala have already promised the US, UK, EU, Sweden, Norway and Canadian politicians, the TNA and all other separatists that the recommendations of the sub-committee to provide extremely great amount of powers to provincial councils will happen as planned. Therefore it will happen as planned.
The only way to stop the treacherous Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala is to publicize in the Sri Lankan media that this is what they are planning to do and shout out as loud as possible i.e. tell all to the Sri Lankan media, especially the Sinhala media so that this treacherous plan is exposed and the treacherous Ranil, CBK, Sirisena and Mangala then will have to answer to the Sri Lankan public, especially the Sinhala people and all other patriotic Sri Lankans about this.
The best remedy is to do everything possible to ensure that the proposed constitution is as unitary as possible and to campaign very hard for that. As long as the constitution is unitary and no more powers are given to the provincial councils, Sinhala Buddhists and even Sinhala Catholics, Malays, Muslims, Veddhas, Burghers are safe. If however, any more powers are given to provincial councils, all of the above and in particular the Sinhala people will be very insecure and unsafe and our future very precarious and uncertain.

MAHINDA RAJAPAKSHE MATHITHUMATA SUBHA UPAN DINAYAK WEWA!!!
President Mahinda Rajapakshe, even if no other Sri Lankan is grateful and even if I am the only one, I am still very grateful and thank you from the bottom of my heart for rehabilitating the country after the tsunami, for ending the war and bringing in peace, for preserving the all important UNITARY STATE not just as a label but very honestly in content too ( as in a totally unitary constitution with limited powers to the provincial councils), for developing the country whether North, East, West, South or the Centre to a comfortable level so that each citizen can live a comfortable life. One other thing, all citizens were free to live wherever they wanted within the country when you were in power and the economy was doing quite well too.
As a socialist I am grateful for you always following people friendly, state centred, economic policies and as an environmentalist you may be a little short on your performance there (due to you probably knot being much informed about these issues) but I know that by and large the natural environment was preserved during your time as president.
Have a happy birthday and enjoy this special day.
November 18th, 2016 at 5:14 pm
Ananda-USA,
Both you and your wife have Phd.s from top US unis and if you have done all what you mentioned above, you actually are an unsung Sinhala hero. In fact you should be in the same level as contemporaries Ken Thomson, Denis Richie et al who are highly decorated greats of USA. You should have done the same thing as the Finish man Linus Travalds who only wrote about ten thousand lines of codes and got some 12000 others from all over the world free, to build up his Linux by writing another 15 million lines of code but at the end got the ownership of Linux. I know you couldn’t do that because you are not true American or an EU man. You belong to SL, so please go there without wasting anymore time.
November 18th, 2016 at 5:57 pm
Aloy,
I will ignore your sarcasm.
I have done all that I have stated, and my wife and I are still doing these things for fun. Despite your kind but sarcastic elevation of my scientific interests to the sky, I know that I do not qualify to be viewed as one of the giants of industry and research that you identified. There are many people like me worldwide, including my oen formet colleagues and current collaborators. I was just responding to your statement on Hydrodynamics and FEM thinking you would be interested, but perhaps that was a mistake.
Regarding your comnent that I should relocate to SL, in fact I spend half of every year in SL enjoying the company of my aging siblings in our last year’s together, and focusing on my charitable activities. Now I generally avoid activities that require reliance on others, and focus on small projects that my wife and I can see through to completion using our own resources.
I have severely curtailed my renewable energy and other engineering projects in Sri Lanka since the Yamapalanaya govt came to power, because their policies have created too many economic uncertainties and barriers for Sinhala Buddhists like me to succeed.
So, I stick to charitable activities now to help a few of the poorer and more deserving among my people survive the current disaster.
November 18th, 2016 at 6:34 pm
Ananda-USA,
You misunderstood me. I never meant to be sarcastic. This is the reality. I hope we put politics aside and try to do something good for mother Lanka. I know it is difficult because of the nature of our people. But let us try. I hope to go back soon and try to establish a training program for Engineers in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD). The design processes can be automated besides using world renown software like SewerCAD, WaterCAD, Civil3D, Tekla Orion etc. Our people are very much backward as they do not get a chance to do design work (except perhaps Highway Design). You can get involved in technologies like AI (which the whole world is now talking about) by giving elementary training to O’level or A’level students on electronics and assembly of simple Robots. I have seen similar things being done in China in BBC programs. I am sure people like Patali may help you by giving you a place in the Technological University.
November 18th, 2016 at 7:24 pm
Aloy,
Thank you, I am sorry I misunderstood you.
Its also uncanny you mentioned it, but I am setting up experimental teaching labs (with equipment I sent from the USA) for teaching Science subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics) to several kids in Sri Lanka.
I believe that theory is best taught through experiments that students can relate to physically. This is a small effort to give a leg up to my own extended “family” of adopted children in Sri Lanka to supplement what they learn in school. I am not interested in making this into a large effort that will that will consume all of my time and energy. The goal is help them do well enough in the A-Level exams to gain admission to university in medicine and engineering.
November 18th, 2016 at 8:02 pm
Bravo, Aloy!
It is a very good idea to help popularize CAD through training in Sri Lanka. If possible, also expand from Civil Engineering CAD to Mechanical Engineering and Chemical Process Engineering CAD areas as well.
I think Architectural CAD is already well established in Sri Lanka. Try to get a piece of the action of Champika’s Megalopolis Development projects.
My best wishes to you for a successful venture …. in Sri Lanka’s national interest!
With regard to asking politicos for opportunities, I don’t need the money, and I am afraid that I value my independence, and my precious time, too much now to go begging for positions. I have been there, done that, and don’t want to waste my time anymore!
As I said, both my wife and I are having too much fun successfully doing our own thing with our own resources, beholden to no one, and devoid of all conflicts!
November 19th, 2016 at 6:13 pm
Ananda ! Great good work by you & your wife.
Best wishes to you in your project to teach Science subjects !
November 19th, 2016 at 6:57 pm
Fran,
Thank you.
You have been one of the delights of my blogging at LankaWeb. Hopefully, we can meet someday, somewhere, recount our successes and failures at LankaWeb, and have a belly laugh together!
November 19th, 2016 at 11:10 pm
Charles and Ananda-USA,
Great minds think alike.
Do you consider DINESH GUNAWARDENA a patriot or an ELAMIST?
He warns of a MILITARY TAKEOVER!!
Please listen (if you can).

MetiMoles with PhDs,
Rather than laughing you will be crying together soon if you bring back ealmists to power again due to your metimoleness.
November 20th, 2016 at 4:00 am
One an engineer. The other a zoologist. That is why the love of chameleons, katussa, thalakoya, etc.
One a captive. The other the keeper! I don’t know what the third one did.
Looking at the conduct of these phds, I want to give up my phd and get out of this dirty place called USA. If you live in this country for more than 2 years you become a BISON.
November 20th, 2016 at 4:28 am
This is probably the project of MetiMole USA professor teaming up with Elamist had to be stopped because of Lorenzos’ facebook war in 2014.
Ealamist Maniwanthan was the partner Prof. USA !
No wonder two Metimoles are furious !

Minister of Development Strategies and International Trade Malik Samarawickrema said in parliament yesterday that he does not believe a satellite was sent to orbit under the guidance of former President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s youngest son Rohitha Rajapaksa.
Samarawickrema said this in response to a question raised by JVP MP Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa.
He said although ‘Supreme Sat’ Pvt Ltd. had claimed to have invested Rs. 18 billion for the launching of the satellite, no such investment had been made, adding that this company had no expertise in the satellite technology either.
It’s a cargo company:
MP Nalinda Jayatissa further stated that Supreme Sat was nothing more than a cargo company that handles sea and road goods transport and not space satellite launching.
He asked the government to summon the Director of Supreme Sat and question him on where the space satellite is at present, or launch another satellite in order to find out what happened to the earlier satellite.
In response Samarawickrema said, “Supreme Sat had signed an agreement on satellite technology with the Investment Board. I am not aware of the details as it was done during the previous regime.”
What was said then:
“Supreme Sat 1” communication satellite was launched on November 27, 2012 afternoon and the media reported it.
The company’s Chief Executive Officer Vijith Pieris said the satellite was launched under the partnership of two Chinese and Sri Lankan companies and would be ready to provide satellite television transmission from July next year.
Space Technology Engineer Rajapaksa?
He further stated that this is a $ 320 million project and the initial idea was space engineer Rohitha Rajapaksa’s.
Former minister Tissa Vitharana and ‘Space Engineer’ Rahitha Rajapaksa had attended the launching of this space shuttle to space, it was reported.
Meanwhile, Chairman Supreme Sat R. M. Maniwanthan had told media earlier that the satellite was launched with the intention of improving satellite television services and Supreme Sat-1 was manufactured by China’s leading satellite manufacturer ‘China Satellite’ corporation and was owned by Sri Lanka’s Supreme Sat Company.

Gonsal,
What is worse is its real name is CHINASAT 12 (Zhongxing 12). Only local SL media called it Supremesat 1.
And it does not cover SL!!
It only covers China, ASEAN and Japan.
What a joke SL’s first satellite does not cover SL!!
Initially Global C-band Beam covered SL but not anymore.
Please look at the satellite tracking map.

$320 million?
Among other things it relays south Endian RAJ TV!

Its very easy to fool SLs.

Oi Katussa (Lorenzo),
As usual you are WRONG again! Both my wife and I were/are University Professors / R&D Engineers. No zoologists!
Moreover, YOU were the one who started using Kabaragoya and Thalagoya animal nicknames for MR/GLP and Me/Frann.
Now you can’t stand it when I bounce it back on you?
If you can’t stand the HEAT, get out of the KITCHEN!
A HYPOCRITICAL fork-tongued RATTLER to the LAST! spinning your WEB of DECEIT to destroy Mother Lanka.

Oi Kalawedda (Gonsal),
What the hell is a metimole? There is no such animal or thing!
Your brain is getting SCRAMBLED by too much running behind the your maximum SunGod Katussa (Lorenzo)!

I did NOT call you or anyone else kabarakoya, thalakoya. I merely referred to the SL PROVERB about them.
I leave it to you to figure out who the Zoologist is. Working with animals is a respectable profession. So is drilling earth for black gold.
You CAN SHOOT the messenger dead but you CANNOT disregard the message he delivers!!! Had MR listened to me, he is president for life. Still not too late. IF he promises to SCRAP 13 amendment, he can be PM overnight in a new govt.
I DON’T believe astrologers but MILLIONS of SLs believe. According to a POPULAR WAR HERO who is also an astrologer, Sira may not last beyond 28 January 2017. Run-nil will be president from 2017 to 2020 UNLESS MR makes his move NOW based on 13 amendment SCRAPPING.
Otherwise the damage done by RUN-NIL (not Sira) will be enormous.
The hotter the kitchen the better! It cannot get too hot for Jaffna Lorenzo who is used to VERY HOT conditions even before birth. Sesame seed oil on body keeps him nice and cold.
BTW, what are your thoughts on the SATELLITE issue? It is a shame SL is lagging behind in satellite technology despite ARTHUR C CLEARK’s involvement in SL. I’m at a LOSS to understand why SL SPENT $320 MILLION for a satellite it has NO USE OF!!

Katussa (Lorenzo),
Sure you called MR/GLP and Me/Fran Kabaragoya/Thalagoya FIRST!
Get OUT of the KITCHEN if it is TOO HOT for Ya!
As USUAL, you are a BAREFACED mother of all LIARS!
You also DENIED working against MR before the election
Until I applied RELENTLESS pressure to get you to ADMIT it on a couple of occasions, most recent of which was documented by Charles in his article.
You CAN fool SOME people ALL the time and
You can fool ALL the people DOME of the time but
You CAN’T fool ALL the people ALL of the time.
Even Charles and Fran allowed you to get away with it for a long time
That only encouraged you to LIE more BRAZENLY!
But, BRAZEN LYING was your DOWNFALL
Keep LYING and HIDING and TWISTING the TRUTH,
Doing and Weaving to avoid the bullets among the REEDS,
But you GOT NAILED TO THE WALL didn’t you,
Despite pretending to be a HIGH IQ EELAMIST?
Go join your SunGod in the mud at Nathikandal, IMBECILE!

USA, you are avoiding REAL issues.
Who is GLP?
1. He was with CBK in her PACKAGE. That failed. IF his package had worked, SL will have TNA REGIONAL COUNCILS.
2. Then he left CBK and joined Run-nil for his CFA. The THOMIAN called LTTE Anton Balla-singham YOUR EXCELLENCY. Only presidents are called YOUR EXCELLENCY. Rings a bell uncle Sam from the school by the sea?
3. After that he joined MR. With all his LEGAL EXPERTISE he FAILED to save MR and SL from war crimes.
4. Now he has joined BR.
Use your animal names on your zoo friend.
