Few Responses which demand a Response.<\/p>\n

Thank you SA Kumar. Sir, Glad to see that, presumable as a Tamil, you tend to accept the Change of Country Name to; Sinhela – Sinhala – Heladiva.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, you are welcome to call Tamil Nadu, as the country of Tamil, any name the citizens of Tamil Nadu wish.<\/p>\n

Lorenzo –<\/strong> You read my mind. Thank you.<\/p>\n

I suggest that in due course, the Name Change be effected, subject to a Referendum, giving several options.<\/p>\n

Thank you for Correction: You are correct.<\/p>\n

It was Madam Sirimavo who affected the change to Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

Dramatic Change of\u00a0 Satorial of President Sirisena?<\/p>\n

No offence to ex-Pres. MR when he threw the Red Shawl\u00a0 round his neck, to make the Rajapaksa Clan stand-out from the rif-raf\u201d wearing the National Garb.<\/p>\n

Now an over-enthusiastic Presidential Advisor or Spin-Doctor probably advised My3 to put-on an extra vest or Waste coat(?) perhaps to keep his heart warm?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whilst Ranil Wickremesingha dons a typical conservative Western suit, complete with tie……<\/p>\n

Why did President Maitreepala Sirisena, donned an extra WasteCoat, Indian style?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Was it to show an additional allegiance to India?\u00a0 (together brother-ness)<\/p>\n

Perhaps the President should have gone a yard\u201d further and put an additional Pakistani cloak, with a minor alteration to make his Sherwani\u201d look a dash Chinese, with a colour change perhaps.<\/p>\n

How about a Red (Thambi) Hat to please the Islamists?<\/p>\n

And a orange Spot on his forehead, to please the Hindu?<\/p>\n

Any suggestions on footwear?\u00a0 (Cowboy boots to please the Yanks?)<\/p>\n

\u00a0In the good ole days, the Gate Mudliyar wore the Sarong + Shirt + Tie + Western jacket. Some did sport a cow-horn rim on top of the head, with long hair sporting a bun\u201d.\u00a0 That just might suit the new President aka AiO My3\u201d Sirisena.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sri Lanka will have a Real Life “Charlie” Chaplin, entertaining the political scene.<\/p>\n

\u00a0President should remember, One cannot Please or Fool, All the People All the Time!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
