more than 85% of tamils boycotted the elections Please check the facts No tamils in Srilanka wanted to participate in the elections Only 15% tamils have registered their votes That too forcibly made to vote All Tamil dominated areas Rajapakse lost miserably. Fonseka lost in his birthplace badly

they boycotted the elections because they knew they had no right to vote in another country. If they want to vote, they should vote in TN elections.

I am sorry. Tamils are a part of Lanka and have as much right to vote in our elections. They never did boycott the elections and participated in them with vigor

what do you mean they participated with vigour. The turn out was 20% in tamil areas. Stop spreading your lies. You are trying make Sinhalease sound nice and hide the human rights violation and the fear psychosis created by your people on tamils.
Well, you are an example of a good tamil. one that knows he is a minority and cannot ask for undue demands. Well done for voting for Rajapakse. So did I. We need more tamils like you. Please ask your brothers and sisters who do not act properly in the Sinhala Land to go back to Tamil nadu. Thank you for being a model minority.

Mr. Colombo boy go read your Mahavamsam and u will understand that sinhalese came to srilanka after Tamils and only because you are a mojority now ask the Tamisl to go back to Tamilnadu. And Mr. Singaravelu I think now you understand the mind set of Sinhalese who treat Tamils always as a second class citizen cum Slave.

whatever may be . people will praise hopless one and scold good man. but this guy very strong, able to sit in president post. not like our president, PM, foreign minister, defence minister etc. such a small country ransacked LTTE from lanka. hats up rajapakshe..god bless you
This man lead a small army and crushed the LTTE, the very same LTTE, larger countries could not defeat. This man has brought back Sinhala pride to Lanka. Congratulations Mr. Rajapakse. Please reduce the population by another 20000.

Yes this is the man wholead a small army with the help of big countries like China, India and Pakisthan and killed many innocent civilians in the process of defeating LTTE. The population will be reduced as per your wish as now he is a undisputed king of sinhalas.

How did you arrive at the figures of 30,000 deaths? True, during the war there were excesses, resulting in pain and destruction. But the end has justified the means. Anywhere the war would have casualties.

It is the LTTE which made Rajapakshe great first by killing Rajiv Gandhi and then by boycotting the last elections which he won by a slender margin.

Colomboycoy - Yes you are correct a small army of 2 Lakhs with full equipments from India,Pakistan,China,Russia,Israel,UK & other Country to defeat 15 Thousand Fighters Plus 30 thousand & more Innocent Civilians.

Every country is dependent on other countries for technology and weapons. For instance, India has sanctioned yesterday shopping of a list of defence items, worth more than $2billion from the US. Does that mean Indian does not have a huge arsenal?

Yes Every Country is dependent on other countries to buy fire arms but Srilanka got help in all terms such as Sattelite information on movements of enemies,Round up by Indian Navy, Technical support by Indian BEL employees and pakistani pilots

YOU BE ONE AMONG 20000.BE HUMAN.EVERY ONE HAS TO DIE SOME EARLY AND SOME LATE BUT FINALLY EVERY ONE HAS TO DIE.
I am a war-weary SL Tamil from Pesalai, Mannar. I forgive Rajapakse for the excesses his army committed during the war, as any war in the world would have caused casualties. Anyway, finally, the ends have justified the means. Today, I can have access to Internet; send my children to school without fear of LTTE abductions; and walk on the road freely with the hope of returning home safely. Although it looked appealing, the LTTE really ruined our lives. Now we have the peace, and I voted for Rajapakse this time.

This is a beautiful post Singaravelu. If more people both on the Sinhala side as well as the Tamil side emulate your attitude, Sri Lanka will be well on the way to prosperity and a glorious peaceful egalitarian future. Well said and best wishes to you.

Singaravelu, You can send children to school yes and when you try to send him to good university (provided your son gets high score)then you would understand why all the problems started. I hope you will realize soon. You said Rajapakse would do something for tamils. We are all going to watch. Let us see
Re: Re: Congratulations Rediff for this article
by Singaravelu Anthoni on Jan 28, 2010 10:27 AM
Sarath Fonseka: I know you are hiding behind the mask of that valiant commander. He was great man too. That's why most Tamils sided with him, and voted for him too. But he shouldnt have been power-hungry.
Re: Re: Re: Congratulations Rediff for this article
by sarath fonseka on Jan 28, 2010 10:34 AM
Do u mean Rajapakse is not power hungry ? Anyway, If you do a clear analysis of the outcome of the elections there is a clear divide between the singhalese and tamils in Lanka.The results are really a onesided while there is an equal vote bank for UNP and SLFP. All Singhalses including from Ranil's UNP voted for Rajapakse just because Tamil parties sided with Fonseka. That shows what kind of mentality singhalese have ?
Re: Re: Re: Re: Congratulations Rediff for this article
by sarath fonseka on Jan 28, 2010 10:36 AM
And dont forget that the tamil party TNA which is sided with Fonseka, was LTTE supporters and they have won 80% of tamil votes

Believe me, my daughter got through her A Levels with great difficulty, and now hobnobbing with the Sinhalese students at the Peradeniya University. The discriminatory policies have disappeared now.
Re: Re: Re: Congratulations Rediff for this article
by sarath fonseka on Jan 28, 2010 10:38 AM
Yes you are right. Your daughter strived hard to get into A Levels to enter peradeniya Univ where as Singhalese need to take only B levels to enetr th same Univ

Singaravelu, That colmbo boy is abusing your daughter indirectly... Report abuse!
its high time rediff starts using some brain when writing their news. He killed 30,000 tamils with his so called Midas touch - and killed scores of Sri Lankan journalists. For all the hype about his election victory, Sri Lankan Chief Election Commissioner has resigned - basically invalidating legitimacy of the election itself. I strongly condemn Rediff.

Congratulations to Rediff for presenting news as it unfolds. Who are you to instruct seasoned News Editors? Today the talk of the town in all the newspapers in flamboyant and charismatic Rajapakse.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: insensitive headline

Agree 100%. Why didnt you raise your voice when the LTTE bombs and mines killed hundreds of Sinhalese people?
