One day you go to a Teplis woman, the next day you go to the Indian High Commissioner and now you want to see President Rajapakse to discuss the grievances of Tamil people.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this hour of Covid 19 Pandemic every freeloader\u00a0must join hands with GOSL to fight Covid.\u00a0 One must be frothing mad to clammer for personal gains with a hidden agenda.\u00a0 If there is genuine desire to serve your Tamil people, you join hands with the government to develop the North. I do not believe you have the right to speak on non-existing issues in the east.\u00a0 Simply crisscrossing the country one day with Teplis woman and the next day with the Indian\u00a0High Commissioner\u00a0 and another day with the President makes you dumb dumb look an absolute clown.\u00a0 If not a joker or a comedian.\u00a0 Oi Sampanthan, you swam the Palk Strait in the 1940s and entered the country as an illegal immigrant a KALLATHONI and haven&#8217;t you done well at the expense\u00a0of Sri Lankan people?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Look back into the ;past and see if you have achieved anything for the Sri Lankan people? None.\u00a0 There are no issues in existence.\u00a0 All Sri Lankan people have some form of a grievance not only to Tamil people 12% of the\u00a0total population for preferential treatment that is not even enjoyed by the total population\u00a0 of 75%. It is unrealistic and unreasonable for you to agitage\u00a0in your false\u00a0campaign to\u00a0topple the\u00a0government.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Do you think Sri\u00a0Lanka is owned by the Teplis woman or Indian High Commissioner?\u00a0 Listen carefully Sampanthan, if there are any issues to be resolved, they are common to all Sri Lankan people and not only to Sri Lankan Tamil People.\u00a0 I suggest if you are not happy with the Sri Lankan government you are free to go back to where you came from.\u00a0 There is no one stopping you from doing that and please make sure you take back with you all your Tamils leaving behind the peace loving moderate Tamil people living amongst the majority Sinhalese.\u00a0 Sampanthan, You are nothing but a S&#8230;. stirrer.\u00a0 At your old age my advice to you is Please retire from politics with grace.\u00a0 Enough is enough you have been a freeloader\u00a0and a Sh.. Stirrer for so long.\u00a0 Please get the hell out of my country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expatriat\u00a0Sri Lankan <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Stanley Perera, Melbourne, Australia.
