SCRAP 13A NOW!"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>Stanley Gunaratne.<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Covid 19 situation is a terrible global crisis. In the\nisland of Ceylon, where despite $3 billion a year wasted on Provincial Councils\nand Indian style politicians, we have managed to curtail the spread and combat\nit thanks to a relatively efficient administration which is in stark contrast\nto the usual modus operandi of the prevailing system (which has been designed\nby India and Indian bootlickers).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has shown that this country has <strong>zero need<\/strong> for 225\nfat buffoons (Indian bootlickers), Provincial Councillors (bootlickers of the bootlickers)\nor endless &#8220;jobs for the boys&#8221; appointees in a bloated public sector\nto run the country. The politicians are attempting with various press gimmicks\nto try and prove their relevance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This opportunity to free ourselves from India and this Indian corrupt system must not be missed. It is sad that our island of such potential has\u00a0seemingly in its post-independence history never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity. Nations that were far behind us (South Korea, Singapore, Hong\u00a0Kong, Malaysia, and even Japan) have overtaken us tanks to\u00a0coherent social policies and sound economics with THE RULE OF LAW. This is despite us having far superior infrastructure and supply chain links in the 1940s and 50s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IF an election is to be held (it is this author&#8217;s opinion\nthat the country does not need to elect the same bunch of fat buffoons\npresented thus far by ALL the political parties in an act of reshuffling the\nsame deck), then will any party, <strong>including the President promise the\nfollowing:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;1. Vote for us to abolish the Indo Lanka Accord<br> 2. Vote for us to abolish the 13th amendment and Provincial Councils<br> 3. Vote for us to use all the money wasted on Provincial Councils on proper electrified high-speed public transport like in Japan\/China\/Singapore (a high-speed train can cross the island in 70 minutes)<br> 4. Vote for us to BAN all ethnic parties<br> 5. Vote for us to mix the whole population and end ethnic ghettos (i.e. reinitiate the Gal Oya Schemes)<br> 6. Vote for us to establish the rule of law<br> 7. Vote for us to build a proper international airport<br> 8. Vote for us to ensure proper schools for your children<br> 9. Vote for us to ensure proper hospitals for everyone<br> 10. Vote for us to stop being an Indian vassal state<br> 11. Vote for us to teach these politician mankollakaraya Indian bootlickers a lesson<br> 12. Vote for us to establish ONE nation, ONE PEOPLE, one LAW.<br> 13. Vote for us to restore our national flag of 1948 (the Lion flag minus the artificial stripes) where the Lion represents us all<br> 14. Vote for us to have all children of all ethnicities in one school together in the same classroom and on the same playground (taught in either Sinhala, or English medium) &#8211; BILINGUAL in\u00a0one mother tongue and English &#8211; NOT the Trilingual nonsense<br> 15. Vote for us to have an independent judiciary<br> 16. Vote for us to support our armed forces<br> 17. Vote for us to put the PEOPLE first and to become a nation of LAWS, not endless hordes of politicians!<br> 18. Vote for us to have young, vibrant, visionary, and genuine patriots in Parliament instead of fat buffoons!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rule of law, zero tolerance for corruption, and pro-business policies can result in a shower of investment into this country and take us toward being another Singapore with ease. But nothing will change unless some entity promises above and does it. It is high time for a &#8220;PAP&#8221; style party in Ceylon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, <strong>the name of the country MUST be restored to Sinhale (Ceylon in English is acceptable as a\u00a0phonetic transliteration) with the complete removal of the artificial Indian name of Sri Lanka, the name of a party, not a nation, or her people.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No self-respecting country would continue to abide by the Indo Lanka Accord which violates international law and is akin to the Nazi Anschluss imposed on Austria against her will prior to WWII. ANY POLITICIAN WHO DOES NOT SEEK ITS REMOVAL IS A TRAITOR PURE AND SIMPLE and guilty of committing High Treason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This country has vast\npotential. Just recently, West Texas Crude was selling for a negative price on\nthe international markets &#8211; meaning one would be&nbsp;effectively PAID by the\nbarrel to store oil. When Ceylon has vast storage capacity at the Trincomalee\nOil Farm (with capacity for 12,000 tonnes of oil at current capacity) and all\nof that is under the control of the Indians (the enemy of our nation), that\nspeaks volumes about the opportunities we miss. Furthermore, in the era where\nelectric cars are taking off, we are sitting on some of the purest graphite\n(used in electric&nbsp;batteries) in the world and have&nbsp;zero\nsupply&nbsp;chain links (in 1948, we were the number one graphite producer in\nthe&nbsp;world)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will\nPresident GR promise the above 18 points? Or will he simply go along with the\nvile vermin politicians seeking reelection who are shedding crocodile tears for\nthe Sri Lankan\/Ceylonese people who they have enslaved and robbed all these\nyears?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I ask all patriots to DEMAND patriotic POLICIES on manifestos and vote for your country and children, not for parties and politicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No more &#8220;India is my brother&#8221; from our so-called leaders.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\nbow to thee my country of Sinhale\/Ceylon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A\nconcerned citizen,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanley\nGunaratne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stanley Gunaratne.
