( September 30, 2013, Melbourne, Sri Lanka Guardian) Last night at the Sri Lanka Reconciliation Forum here in Sydney we had a robust discussion on Sinhala Nation, Tamil Nation and Sri Lankan Nation.

This morning I read the Sri Lanka Guardian article ‘Are The Tamils And The Sinhalese, Same Or Different?’ by Dr. Laksiri Fernando – who was also part of last night’s discussion group. I understand that Dr. Laksiri Fernando’s article is in response to Professor Hoole’s response to Dr. Laksiri Fernando’s article “Some Ethnic Differences Observed by Robert Knox”
