The story changes decades of illegal migration patterns of Tamil refugees risking their lives by trying to cross the vast oceans in rickety trawlers,\u00a0 and some Tamils hiring\u00a0 rickety ships to smuggle them to Western countries and drop them off on<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>their shores at night.\u00a0 This story tells us how Switzerland wanted to change all that by trying to smuggle refugees in an Air Ambulance making Asia&#8217;s refuge seekers to Switzerland, a sophisticated and a painless exercise.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>In a world\nof terrorism and the western countries banding together to eliminate\nterrorists, how Switzerland decided to go on its own and be out of sync with <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>the rest of\nthe world by having their Federal Court\u2019s rule that the most ruthless terrorist\noutfit in the world, the India trained Tamil Tigers, who created the human bomb\nsuicide body pack, and assassinated two heads of State, Rajiv Gandhi of\nIndia,&nbsp; and President Premadasa of Sri\nLanka, is not a terrorist organization.&nbsp;\nYou could hear the separatist-Tamils rejoice singing in the background\nheartily with a Tamil accent :<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Halleluja..halleluja, we can now <\/em><\/strong><br><strong><em>continue to assassinate <\/em><\/strong><br><strong><em>and murder the Sinhalese<\/em><\/strong><br><strong><em>to claim our mono-ethnic state <\/em><\/strong><br><strong><em>of the racist Eelam.\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Haro\u2026 Hara\u2026 Eelam<\/em><\/strong><br><strong><em>\u00a0Hallelujah.. Eelam.. Hallelujah.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>With the Bar\nAssociation of Sri Lanka (BASL) rapping the knuckles of the Swiss Government\nfor its high handed statement on December 30, 2019, attempting to undermine Sri\nLanka\u2019s core values in her judicial system which they had followed and\ntreasured in abundance for more than two centuries, changed the centuries old\nColonial Masters claim that little Sri Lanka and its peoples were a White-man\u2019s\nburden. With that intervention by BASL,&nbsp;\nthis Colonial Masters claim has taken a 180 degree turn to be portrayed\nas the white-faced Switzerland now being the burden of little brown-faced\npeople of Sri Lanka.&nbsp;&nbsp; This film has new\ngeo-political&nbsp; intentions, implications\nand intrigue. It is an intriguing expose how Switzerland viewed to lead their\nNew World Order of the 2020s and failed miserably.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well,\nHanspeter Mock, if your Swiss Government still wishes to smuggle the Tamils,\nlet\u2019s not go bonkus with an expensive Swiss Air Ambulance Shuttle. Make it\nsimple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Announce\nto the Tamils in the North and East of Sri Lanka, that the Swiss roads are\npaved with gold, as they love gold, and the pastures are greener than Colombo\u2019s\nGalle Face Green, and hold a Refugee lottery. Spray cans of gold-paint on the\nroad that leads to town from the airport, and don&#8217;t pave the road with the real\ngold you all hoarded after World War II as it would be picked at night with a\ndentist&#8217;s tooth pick, and you will have scores of hundreds of Tamils wanting to\nclaim refugee status in friendly Switzerland which has given a clear bill of\nhealth for the terrorist Tamil Tigers.&nbsp;\nSiphon them out, Hanspeter.&nbsp; Make\nit fun and siphon them out in relays like the first batch being the&nbsp; -lingams.&nbsp;\nPull the lingams out like the &#8211; Sothilingam, Rasalingam,\nJayalingam,&nbsp; Suntharalingam,\nPanchalingam, Nagalingam, Sivalingam&nbsp; and\nso forth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Siphon the Raja\u2019s in the second batch of Tamil refugees like Thurairajah, Sellarajah, Senthilrajah, Waratharajah, Nadarajah, and so forth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t\nwaste your time trying to convince the southern Tamils, especially those in the\ncapital region of Colombo.&nbsp; They are the\nTamils who drive BMWs and have no reason to come to live in your country when\nthey are millionaires minting a million rupees a day from their businesses in\nthe city and along the mile long business district&#8217;s Main Street in Pettah,\npatronized by the majority Sinhalese community, like&nbsp; Tamil Spice Stores, Thosai restaurants,\nJewellery Stores, Sari Emporiums, Pharmacies, Thosai flour and rice Stores,\nMasala wade and Ulundu wade boutiques, etc.&nbsp;\nAnd of course the professionals like Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers,&nbsp; Landlords, and so forth, who educate their\nchildren abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nbottom line of all these Swiss massaged shenanigans were to undermine the newly\nelected President Gotabaya Rajapaksa and his new Government that were voted in\nby 1.3 million people of Sri Lanka.&nbsp;\nHanspeter, you certainly weren\u2019t smart enough to figure out that your\neffort to bully President Gotabaya would only bring the wrath of 1.3 million\npeople, who would tell you Hanspeter &#8211; <strong><em>\u2018Pox on You, keep your hands off our\nPresident, who with his military team gave us back our right-to-life which was\nhi-jacked from us for 30 bloody years, by your newly found friends, the\nruthless Tamil Tiger terrorists. Just bug-off.\u2019 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;We were told that you were a veteran\nDiplomat.&nbsp; Phew! You certainly didn\u2019t\nshow your smarts, on this vulgar, crude and your Embassy\u2019s&nbsp; Swiss cesspit issue, did you?&nbsp; Pity!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hanspeter,\nI see that SriLanka has a Peace offering from Bern. Hmmmm\u2026!&nbsp; Quite an interesting turn of events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nThird person note says<strong><em> &#8230;..The Embassy regrets that these\ndevelopments have led to the Sri Lankan authorities commitment to due process\nbeing called into question and reaffirms that Switzerland, like Sri Lanka, is\ncommitted to upholding good governance and the rule of law.&nbsp; The Embassy hopes for a swift return to an\nenvironment conducive to resuming the -positive cooperation between Switzerland\nand Sri Lanka\u2026..\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hanspeter,\nthis is all well and good.<em>&nbsp; <\/em>In my opinion the aberration of the\ncooperation between Switzerland and Sri Lanka was too swift, too condescending,\ntoo arrogant in its quality to tell Sri Lanka, <strong><em>We know all about good governance\nand \u2018due process\u2019.&nbsp; \u2018We are Holier than\nthou.\u2019 <\/em><\/strong>and you were in the White-man\u2019s Bully mode.&nbsp; I will not forgive you for Mocking at my\npeople and trying to intimidate the newly elected President of Sri Lanka, who\nwas voted in by 1.3 million Sri Lankans.&nbsp;\nAnd that should&nbsp; have said\nsomething to you. And as President Gotabaya says, in all the Swiss crap <strong><em>I\nwas the victim.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And my unsolicited advice to him is <strong><em>&#8211;  Sir, Beware of the Geeks coming to you<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>Bearing\nGifts.\u201d&nbsp; These people in Bern have burnt\nthemselves, just be ware of them as they tried to shame you and bury you.&nbsp; They are now good friends of the Tamil Tiger\nterrorists who tried to assassinate you.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well&#8230;Good\nLuck with your conciliation efforts with the Sri Lankan Foreign Ministry\npersonnel and their Minister.&nbsp; Let me\ntell you one thing more Hanspeter.&nbsp; These\nguys<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>at\nthe Sri Lankan Foreign Affairs Ministry are too smart to drop down and roll\nover pretending they are dead, when they hear the Swiss heavy footsteps\napproaching them.&nbsp; You&#8217;re in for a surprise\nand so are your colleagues in Bern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Come\ndown your from your high-horse Hanspeter, and stopping Mock-ing at my Sinhalese\npeople as they will Mock\u2026Mock back at you in double quick time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wish you a Happy and a Good 2020.\u00a0\u00a0 Remember to cultivate a little\u00a0 humility and don\u2019t walk towards them with an uppity nose high up pretending that you are a White-Platinum Tin God.\u00a0 The Sinhalese people won\u2019t buy it.\u00a0 They will shush you away with a Lion and Lioness\u2019s dignity, grace and pride.
