Foreign Intelligence Agencies covertly gives millions of rupees to Tamil parties to split the Tamil votes | Sri Lanka Guardian

External forces and their real intentions…

It is clear that certain governments do not want the Tamil and Sinhalese communities to reach a lasting political settlement as it would potentially disrupt their strategic long term plans…

If the Sri Lankan government were strong, and relations with Russia for example were concrete things would be a lot different as countries like India would then have to choose their side openly and play ball.

The Indian establishment should also learn from its past failings to desperately keep the monarchy in power in Nepal and resist the Maoists take over and eventual overthrow of the pro-New Delhi Nepalese Royal family. The U.S. too should be focusing more on the dark clouds covering its own turf as opposed to hoodwinking the Tamil community of Sri Lanka and applying pressure on the Sri Lankan Sinhalese administration when it suits the U.S. in order for whichever Colombo regime is in power to tow their line.

You guys will remain slaves to India for ever. You had your chance, but did not take it. China wont forget the betrayal. Hope India treats you all well.....

It's true. Sri Lanka had a chance to be independent and wealthy. Now it will become another Bhutan or, at best, Bangladesh. They accepted slavery under RAW.

China will stop all political and strategic investment in SL. Maldives will gain all the benefit.

This is the verdict of the people of Sri Lanka, Nothing to do bilateral relations with either China or India.. It was a vote against misrule ,corruption and nepotism.. So respect the democratic choices of the people of Sri Lanka without posting stupid rhetoric

What has this election has to do with India ?? India doesn't have have anything to strike with in this case

In case your ignorant Sri Lanka is the oldest democracy in Asia.. The first to have universal suffrage.. And have had multi party elections since the turn of the 20th century.. Leave your gloating elsewhere

its a democracy and srilankan people exercised their right to choose their future goverment for their well fare..
its a childish thinking that India can control the election of any sovergien country.

If it had been Rajapakshe too. India would have welcome it. We don't have any issue with China - Srilanka relations.
every sovergien country has right to build relations to anyone.

Sri Lanka needs US , western ,Japanese and Indian investments as well
And I don't think you have any power in the Chinese government either

It is divided but his popularity is lower than it was in 2010 and many have a negative view on him. But he is still very popular in the South

Divisive figure.. People across the political division s appreciate his role in defeating Tamil tiger terrorism and bringing long lasting peace and stability to the nation

But his second term was marred by corruption, nepotism, complete misrule and total absense of law and order.. So the people have given him the message not once but twice within 8 months for him to go home and that the country need a visionary leader for the peacetime, not a war time president.. Horses for causes

I too felt the same, he did a great job by ridding the nation of a huge problem & was wondering what went wrong.

 

[surya kiran]

Tell you what, this proves that SL has a strong democracy. The chap, accepted the verdict and moves on to fight another day. Hopefully, this continues and there will be a prosperous SL to our South. And hopefully, relations between our countries will only get better and stronger.

Guess, he was the Churchill that SL needed at that time. And his place in history is guaranteed for ridding the South Asian region of the LTTE menace.

do you mean what is "Election"??

I bet "Election" is a banned word in China.

Sri Lanka is a free country,whose countrymen has right to choose their leader(Unlike you).and its expected that they were going to throw this government of misrule ,corruption and nepotism.I wonder why such governments always become "Apple of China's Eye"..
