Nepotism..! Before people can heave a sigh of relief it takes root again: Daham Sirisena is a UN representative !
This conference is attended by leaders of States and representatives of over 150 countries of the world .SL’s President Maithripala Sirisena ,the foreign minister , the minister of justice, the minister of skills development and vocational training (participation of this minister whose portfolio has no relevance to this conference is a joke deserving a hearty laugh !), the SL ambassador to America and State representatives.
Daham Sirisena the young immature son of the president also was one of the SL representatives at this event along with others (vide photograph).
Interestingly , Daham Sirisena (so called) who is supposed to have completed the higher education, and has not even reached the age of 25 years holds no official post in the government . Hence , the only qualification Daham has to be a representative of the government is the Asian primitive qualification - son of his excellency the ‘King’ , which in the modern world is considered as a disqualification meriting nothing except disdain and detestation because it savors of most reprehensible unalloyed nepotism ( it is significant to note that people elected him on the 8 th of January as president solely and wholly because he loudly said, he will never be a “king” nor wear a ‘crown’ and fantasize himself as a King)
Therefore when the president had vowed most solemnly and loudly before the people he will not be an imaginary ‘King’ or wear a ‘crown’ , who made him a clown now ?

Who made young immature Daham Sirisena a representative and attend the UN assembly ? How did that happen and was it at public expense or were the expenses met out of his personal funds ? If it was out of his personal funds , how did he collect the funds when he has no proper job? Or were the expenses included in president’s entourage expenditure or from his private funds ? If Daham represented the governmment at this assembly what is the benefit he reaped for the country ? The Sri Lankans all over the world of the civilized age are entitled to know the answers to these questions.
Let us not forget, the Sri Lankans through the rainbow revolution of 8 th January threw out Mahinda Rajapakse’s despotic and family rule lock , stock and barrel. It is also undisputable that although Mahinda the despot selfishly plundered the country wholesale for and on behalf of his family , never did the country see his son going to Geneva and occupying a seat at the assembly despite the raging nepotism and cronyism during his reign .
In the present climate under Mathripala , even before the people could heave a sigh of relief that Rajapakse nepotism was got rid of ,nepotism in its worst abominable form seems to have already taken root outrageously at the very place and with the person it was least expected.
No matter what , let anybody who is trying to play fast and loose be warned , the triumphant rainbow revolution of the people which commenced on 8 th january cannot be reversed , and will not be reversed. Good governance shall flourish and those selfishly opposing it overtly or covertly shall perish. Buffaloes shall be tethered or sent back from where they came .
People should hence resist complacency and be alert against evil trends and evil leaders trying to take the people down the garden path while engaging in lip service, and doing disservice to the nation as a whole
