Sat, 2008-05-10 04:14  admin
Basil RajapakseSpeaking to ‘Asian Tribune’ Basil Rajapakse MP said that it is very clear that Ranil-Rauff coalition who are splintered and incapable of keeping their own members in the fold, could not be expected to lead people of the East.

He said that the election campaign went on very well as the awareness level of the people reached a high level. They fully understand what is at stake in this election.
Disruptive Tactics by LTTE-UNP Underground Elements to Thwart Will of the People will Fail
Sat, 2008-05-10 04:40  admin
The LTTE suicide bomb, sickeningly described by them as “the enchanting weapon of noble purpose” has been used to rescue the Ranil - Rauff UNP coalition when defeat was staring in the face. "Asian Tribune" reported few hours ago, that underground goons of the doomsday coalition were using terrorist tactics to disrupt the elections in the East. The prediction came true as a bomb detonated in a café in Ampara killing 11 innocent people. Ranil Wickremesinghe’s UNP preaching democracy and freedom from the roof tops were now locked in an unspeakable attempt to thwart the will of the people. The LTTE is using terror to sabotage the elections. This is doomed to fail as the people are fully aware of these tactics and will go to the polls no matter what obstacles are put in their path.

British Authorities Missed Opportunity to File Criminal Charges Against Karuna: Human Rights Watch Flabbergasted
Sat, 2008-05-10 23:53  admin
Vinayagamoorthi Muralitharan, known as Colonel Karuna Amman has escaped prosecution. Shame says Human Rights Watch. It should have been tried for crimes against humanity no matter where they occurred. The British government's failure to file criminal charges against a former Tamil Tiger leader for grave human rights abuses in Sri Lanka is a tragic missed opportunity to bring a notorious rights abuser to justice, Human Rights Watch added. In spite of strong efforts by the Metropolitan Police, on May 9 the United Kingdom government announced that the Crown Prosecution Service found there was "insufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction for any criminal offences in the UK" against Karuna Amman. "Britain is missing a golden opportunity to show that human rights violators like Karuna will be tried for grave abuses, no matter where they took place," said Brad Adams, Asia director at Human Rights Watch. "If he escapes prosecution, it will be a tragedy both for his many victims and for international justice."

Appreciation: Prof. “Tawney” Rajaratnam was respected and loved by all
Sat, 2008-05-10 02:38  admin
Prof. “Tawney” RajaratnamOne of my cherished memories of the days as an under-graduate at Peradeniya was meeting Tawney Rajaratnam sub-warden of Arunachalam Hall. Tawney and our warden Prof. D E Hettiarachchi would often join us at a game of table tennis whenever we took a breather from our studies. 'Tawney' Selvaratnam Rajaratnam, born on 10 May 1928, was a senior academic in Economics at Peradeniya for a long time. He was renowned for his knowledge of the economic history of England. He entered the lecture hall without even a scrap of paper, rattled away dates with a vengeance as he walked to and fro with a slight stoop.

Will coalition survive in Pakistan…..?
Sat, 2008-05-10 00:08  admin
Pakistan is faced with a catch-22 situation. President Pervez Musharraf is having his bad days ahead, giving him sleepless nights and enough of cause for consternation. His ‘wings’ are likely to be ‘clipped’ by the new government. Either he will be impeached and forced to step down, or he will be reduced to a 'titular head', when an omnibus constitutional package is introduced in the National Assembly. It all depends on how the U S will act to save him.
