Hilmy Ahamed was the main contact person for Minister Faizer Musthapa to turn coats against President Mahinda Rajapaksa at the very last moment, around the last week\/1<sup>st<\/sup> week of January 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Things have changed since a the Presidential Elections &#8211; January 8<sup>th<\/sup>.,2015 and the General Elections \u2013 September 14<sup>th<\/sup>., 2015. The duped and hoodwinked Muslim voters who were made to vote\u201d the Hansaya\u201d have begun to understand the treachery of these Muslim Civil Society Leaders, Community Leaders, and Ulema Sabai Leaders by the action of the Yahapalana Government\u201d now. They are disgruntled\u201d and they have begun to show their displeasure and have begun to retaliate against these so-called deceptive, hoodwinking and opportunistic Muslim Civil Society Society Leaders, Community Leaders and Ulema Sabai Leaders to safeguard their legitimate Muslim Rights\u201d. They are no more willing to be duped by the press releases and media dramas staged by these stooges of the Yahapalana Government\u201d anymore.<\/p>\n<p>The Muslim Youth and the young professionals of the community have begun to use SOCIAL MEDIA\u201d to challenge these scoundrels. They have begun to oppose the contemplated move by the Yahapalana Government\u201d to amend the Muslim laws that are in the statute books in Sri Lanka since independence which is a political move by the Yahapalana Government\u201d to please the European Union\u00a0in order to expedite the granting of the GSP facilities that are been withheld since 2010. It is also alleged that this is one of the conditions the EU has laid down, if the EU is to restore the GSP + Plus concessions to Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>The Yahapalana Government\u201d has no consideration to the Muslim Community issues or the MUSLIM FACTOR\u201d at all. The Yahapalana Government\u201d is NOT going listen to the Muslim Civil Society Leaders, Community Leaders and Ulema Sabai Leaders, though they have been making BIG NOISES\u201d about the MUSLIM FACTOR\u201d over the last two years, since bringing President Maithripala Sirisena and the Yahapalana government (PM. Ranil Wickremasinghe) to power with our tipping the balance\u201d \u2013 nearly 800,000 votes plus the Tamil votes. The majority President Maithripa Sirisena got was 649,072 votes. Since our vote-bank had been traded by our politicians, the SLMC is dead. The ACMC is busy making money and covering the corruption charges made against them and the Muslim politicians stooging the UNP are ONLY interested in their personal benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The ungrateful Muslim politicians who benefited the most from Mahinda Rajapaksa, Basil Rajapaksa and Gotabaya Rajapaksa are now stooging the Yahapalana government. As a result of all these deceptions, Muslims in Sri Lanka do NOT have a voice \u2013 a POLITICAL VOICE for that purpose.The Yahapalana government (President Maithripala Sirisena and PM Ranil Wickremaratne) have forgotten that it was the minority Muslim votes and the Tamil votes and a very small fraction of the Sinhala votes that tipped the balance for the Hansaya\u201d to win the Presidential Elections and the General elections in 2015. The en-block Muslim votes and Tamil votes to the Muslim candidates and the Tamil candidates made the Yahapalana government to get their majority in parliament in the 2015 general elections.\u00a0<strong>In the next elections, surely the Muslims are contemplating to vote the Joint Opposition\u201d to power, Insha Allah.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Yahapalana Government\u201d is betraying the Muslims who voted the Hansaya\u201d enblock.\u00a0By Noor Nizam \u2013 Convener \u2013 The Muslim Voice\u201d, November 28th., 2016.
