We have given the right to build condominiums
(Lanka-e-News-09.June.2012,11.55PM) Minister Patali Champika Ranawak during a meeting in Homagama said that the government has given more than the equal rights to the Tamils living in Kollupitiya and Wellawatta to build condominium houses in the marine drive. He said the rights to build condominiums were given during the period of successive Sri Lankan governments and not by Pirabakaran in the Vanni.
I should teach Paatali Champika that it is not the right to build condominiums but it is the simple right disallowing to sing the national anthem in Tamil.
The minister is suffering from a memory syndrome for a very long time that he has forgotten that it was in this same Wellawatta during the 1983 communal riots which burnt thousands of Tamils into death. Further he does not know the difference between the fundamental rights of an ethnicity. I don’t know whether this minister knows that no compensation was given for the loss of lives and properties during these communal riots where thousands of Tamils were burnt inside houses and properties looted. I wish to ask Champika did the so called patriotism of Champika Ranawaka bring the perpetrators of 1983 communal riots into account.
I doubt whether this minister was among the clan during the time where Tamil youths were stripped naked in the pavements of Colombo during 1983 which is similar to stripping of the dead bodies of the Tamil women LTTE carders. Being a Buddhist I feel shame for the atrocities committed by the Singhalese during the 1983 communal violence. I don’t know the kind of amusement you get surrounding and looking the nude body of a female dead corpse. There is nothing much for this Singhalese minister to blabber about communal hatred because these are the ministers who are descendents of the endemic Sinha (lion) tribe. I wish if this minister would have watched the program of Ven Dambara Amila in the Ya TV so that he can differentiate the difference between a Buddhist and a Singhalese.
Ministers like Champika and Wimal Weerawansa should come out from the tribal community and think this is not a country owned by Singhalese and other communities to live as visitors. If this minister says that Tamil people in Kandy, Negombo and Wattala are living together with harmony it is the coexistence of the people and nothing to boast for a politician like Champika who disallow to sing the national anthem in Tamil.
If it is to bring communal harmony there should be justice met first. I don’t know why politicians like Champika and Weerawansa are frightened about the word accountability. As a matter of fact Sri Lanka is a country which survives under foreign aid, World Bank and IMF loans; it is not a secret how we kneel in front of IMF regulations to cover the budget deficit. At a situation like this we should be mature, civilized and professional and be transparent to handle any accountability issue which affects our integrity. Blabbering about condominium rights in political arena we become jokers when dealing with international politics.
We should be able to prove our credibility in a way safeguarding our integrity and sovereignty of our nation. It may be the endemic quality of the lion in the jungle not to be accountable when hunting a life of another animal but we are living in a civilized society in the 21st century where humans are bonded with humanity and justice. If we see an injustice happening for a fellow human as a Sri Lankan we should be able to raise our voice against the injustice despite he is a Singhalese, Muslim, Tamil or a Christian. If anyone can raise a question what about the crimes done by the LTTE? The answer is very simple if the government can bring K.P and Karuna into accountability for alleged war crimes.
The present generation should know there are many incidents in the past that crimes not brought into justice and accountability. We are not lions living in the jungle we are civilized humans with sixth sense living in cities coexisting with fellow humans. We have to come out from the endemic tribal behavior and get assimilate by means of education, spirituality and practice preached by Lord Buddah not to get instigate for speeches of Weerawansa and Champika and be provocative and brutal until we feel the smell of human flesh.
