Angry President Accepts Nonis’ Resignation

An infuriated President Rajapaksa on Friday accepted the resignation of Chris Nonis as Sri Lanka’s High Commissioner in the United Kingdom.

Mahinda FCA FBHis acceptance came from Rome where he had visited the Vatican on a special flight to meet Pope Francis.

Rajapaksa was furious that Nonis, a dyed in the wool Catholic, had persuaded Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith (who also went to Rome) not to allow Sajin Vass Gunawardena, Monitoring MP for the Ministry of External Affairs, to meet the pope. This is when Rajapaksa, Chief Justice Mohan Pieris, External Affairs Minister G.L. Peiris and a host of others had an audience with the Pope.

Vass Gunawardena, though he was part of President Rajapaksa’s delegation, was thus prevented from meeting the Pope. This angered Rajapaksa and he ordered G.L. Peiris on Friday (the day he called on Pope) to accept Nonis’ resignation.

The news came just a day after the Information Department in Colombo announced that there will be an inquiry into the incident where Nonis was slapped and into a complaint by External Affairs Ministry Secretary Kshenuka Senewiratne that Nonis abused her.

Before that President Rajapaksa ordered all the Colombo media to blackout the incident to save Vass Gunawardena. Even official spokesman and media minister Keheliya Rambukwella who first admitted the incident at a news conference later spoke to G.L. Peiris on his mobile phone. After Peiris denied there was any such incident, like a parrot Rambukwella repeated the same remarks. As a result, there is more mud on the face of the government.

One UPFA Minister said Sajin Vass Gunawardena will be allowed to continue. “Don’t be surprised if he is made Deputy Minister of External Affairs. Bad eggs get promoted whilst others are used like condoms and dropped,” he said.

It was Colombo Telegraph that initially disclosed the attack on Nonis by the Monitoring MP for External Affairs Sajin Vass in the presence of External Affairs Ministry Secretary Kshenuka Senewiratne in New York.

However, despite the President’s attempts the story was eventually published in several local media including newspapers and websites but they have all withheld from naming the attacked as Sajin Vass.

    No tears for Nonis, the doctor who took the hypocrite’s oath and lied through his nose for Rajapakse. Hope the Pope washed his hands well after touching the murderous war criminal Rajapakse and the other criminals who went with him. His holiness must have been somewhat tarnished. But, BBS will set him right when he comes to Lanka.

        “Whatever his short comings, everyone knows that MR had decimated the terrorist LTTE and end the humanbomb blast in buses, trains and public places in Sri Lanka for good.”

        How long you intent to live off from this lie (another myth) that MR decimated LTTE? Even MR and GR stated on the record that without Hindia they would not have defeated the LTTE. By the way VP won the war for MR.

        Grow up and grow wise.

            “fact of the matter is LTTE was decimated when MR is the President period”

            Was it an accident, coincidence or predisposed that MR was in power when LTTE was obliterated.

            In early 2005 Hindians persuaded Chandrika to go for all out war against LTTE. Hindians were very generous in their pursuit, provided Sri Lanka everything needed for a good war, from training, intelligence, surveillance, loans, helicopters, boats, ……. except lethal weapons.

            This is not ancient history.

            This happened only ten years ago hence your reference book is not Ancient Jaffna (1926).

            The psychopath VP was glorified as a “thinking man’s general” or “master strategist” until he surrendered and was hacked to death. Not many would acknowledge that his glorified short lived military achievements(?) were sustained by Hindian actions or inaction or both.

            Once Hindians decided to obliterate LTTE lock stock and barrel there was no going back. This was the strategy Hindians used in attack on Golden Temple, luring militants into one confined area and butchering them. US is trying its best to use the same strategy albeit in a much larger scale in Iraq and Syria.

            Once in a while the stupid Sinhala/Buddhists and stupid Tamils need celluloid heroes. VP and MR fit the bill.

        The credit for defeating the LTTE must go to our excellent Army, Navy and Air Force Commanders. The Rajapakses were lucky to be in the position at the right time. The exception would be Sarath Fonseka who was fortunately out of the country (in China) at the final stages.

          All three services and Police had committed war crimes since 1971. In fact you should be demanding independent war crime investigation for the period from 5th April 1971 to date.

          Hi Sylvia Haik! quote you:”The credit for defeating the LTTE must go to our excellent Army, Navy and Air Force Commanders”. This is what you call ‘monkey praising its own tail’. Didn’t you know that there were 20 countries that were involved in decimating LTTE. Also Karuna Amman’s[5000 men who posed as LTTE cadre] spying& inside informers for the army since March 2009 till end of war. Then,the India and the west who gave help with the satellite intelligence, weapons from China, Banned weapons “like phosphorous bombs and cluster bombs” from Pakistan, mercenaries, from Ukraine and Israel Pilots, who did 8000 sorties from Jan-May 18th 2009[Gota vouches this] Funds from the USA,UK and EU, all helped because MR told them that LTTE was the problem for peace. Once decimated the ethnic problem would be solved. This big-lie that prompted the UNHRC for the resolutions from 2012,2013and 2014 asking Srilanka for accountability and reconciliation. But the government with its “sham development projects” is still trying to cheat and divert the attention of the International community.Continuing With It’s daily atrocities on the Tamils and other religious minorities, MR overtly trying to paint a rosy picture about the country. BSS and 963 Burmese monk trying to create a Cry of ‘Tiger Tiger’ scene in Srilanka. There no Muslim Jihad or Tamil separatists “You can fool some for some time but can’t fool every one all the time”. MR’s time is up for his burial or cremation. The big story in town today is that Srilankan HC was slapped and kicked by a Thuggish MP that too a monitor for the external affairs ministry. It seem a lose cannon projected on GLPieris. a wonky professor of Law! Sad to watch that Pope being hoodwinked as well, What is the Lankan Catholic clergies are promoting?

      How many more days Meeharaka will lead the nation are numbered to this day.

      External affairs are almost thuggery being exercised by Mervin Silva and drug kin pins. All these to see as otherway around – MR has appointed a professor as as the minister – but it is just for the cover story, but these culprits go ahead with their hidden agendas as they are not capable to mastering stardard diplomatic ties.

      I believe the days ahead of us we could get more. Today, Mervin the culprit has expressed that he is no longer happy with the way he is being kept today.

      It is all Mahadanmutta and golayos are the ones that take butcher like decisions just thinking not beyond their noses.

      These baggage boy to slap on a man got education in the UK and ran the HC there is beyond all bearing. We dont respect the way Dr. CN worked on his kind of untruths in the days of CHOGEM cirucs, but we believed – truly believe, lies will not stay intact longer. Next days, we will see what and how CN will have to put all the untruths clear to the world, perhaps not even thinking about the damage will be made by them to the nation and country.

    This is my take on this saga:

    A. At last so called Dr. Christopher Nonis from a affluent Colombo family had to give way for the baggage boy which was quite expected.

    B. This means Ms, Kanthilatha a.k.a Chuti a street walker doing the worlds oldest profession in Ratnapura city, and Chris Nonis are both have professional integrity to go against the injustices that came against their chosen profession.

    C. the cheap-Justice who is a govt servant has to join the presidential mass delegation to invite the papal to visit the cursed island of ours and bless the nation. This is just conflicts of interests and even in a african banana republic a chief justice will not be a pawn of the head of state like this.

    d. Also the opposition UNP’s leader of the house, old John was one of the members of this delegation and what kind of man of principle is this John guy? just after the violence and unethical elections for the Uva province, this moron is going with MaRa and this servers me right as UNP will be in the opposition for ever with this type of Johns.

    e. Catholic Bishops are having control of our presidential delegation to meet the papal and this is a NGO/Diaspora/Norway conscpiracy and BBS need to address another big meeting to let the islanders know of this pending threat.

    I think Dr. Nonis announced his resignation publicly after understanding that this time his letter of resignation will be accepted. Otherwise, if he wanted to do it he could have done it immediately without allowing the people to confuse. He waited to create sympathy about him and damage others.

    He is not a professional diplomat. He was a Doctor of Medicine and a Businessman. According to the information I have, he also stopped practicing as a medical doctor long time ago. Now DJ, Tamara K and Dr. CN (Chris Nonis) are in one camp. They will make some media stories for some time.

    If DJ was allowed to continue in Paris, Tamara K in Geneva and the so called Prof RW is to have the peace secretariat or appointed at least as a Minister of Rehabilitation and Reconciliation they all would have blamed Dr. CN for the current episode. CN will lose the opportunity to use his post to attend parties and Royal ceremonies.
    He will continue to say that he was the one who made the CHOGM to happen in SL and David Cameron and Charles came to SL because of his untiring lobbing. Further, he will also say that 600 businessmen attended the Business Forum, 1500 media personnel visited SL during CHOGM because of his efforts.

    In fact if someone else was serving in CN’s place all what had happened during COHGM would have happened.

    Anyway, I was reading “BHAGAVAD GITA SUMMARY” gifted by one of my friends, I sincerely hope that the following will be very useful for DJ, TK, CN and Rajeeva W.

    “Why do you worry without cause? Whom do you fear without reason? Who can kill you? The soul is neither born, nor does it die.” • “Whatever happened, happened for the good; whatever is happening, is happening for the good; whatever will happen, will also happen for the good only. You need not have any regrets for the past. You need not worry for the future. The present is happening…”

    • “What did you lose that you cry about? What did you bring with you, which you think you have lost? What did you produce, which you think got destroyed? You did not bring anything – whatever you have, you received from here. Whatever you have given, you have given only here. Whatever you took, you took from God. Whatever you gave, you gave to him. You came empty handed, you will leave empty handed. What is yours today, belonged to someone else yesterday, and will belong to someone else the day after tomorrow. You are mistakenly enjoying the thought that this is yours. It is this false happiness that is the cause of your sorrows.”

    Will Dr. CN will ask Her Majesty for SIR titled now, because he is British Citizen.

Now he is steamed, and will try to get even with Nonis and will make life miserable for him, and will try to get even with him, for inconveniencing Sajin Vass Goon, and preventing him from seeing the Pope. MR is angry that Nonis did not toe the line this time (any self respecting person who has got assaulted like that should not) and once again Sri Lanka can see that these Rajapaksa’s surround themselves with thugs, uneducated dolts, and no class drunkards, who embarrass this country.

    The most critical insight from President’s decision is that he and the regime have more to fear from Vass than from Nonis, even if including the possibility of having to face extreme embarrassments, domestically and more so, internationally.

    After all, Nonis was in one of the most elite of world capitals and power centers (and Callum Mcrae’s neighbourhood!) and was in fact recognized internationally for his Diplomatic performance within his short life there. Despite all that, in regime’s assessment, the negatives from displeasing Vass obviously trumped the likely negatives from displeasing Nonis as well as the internationals, and this at a time when the country is under hawk-eyed attention of the international powers. That tells it all.

    Although Nonis may entertain hopes of some revenge at Vass if not higher, as long as the regime remains entrenched (as per the Dayan’s thinking, wishful or otherwise) the better of all options for Nonis, unfortunately, may be to fade away. (Dayan must now be caught in between two devils – support Nonis to avenge GL, or continue to support MR with dreams of future cake and wine, or at least mere crumbs?!)

    On a positive note, Vass undoubtedly will get even bolder. Hopefully nature would take its course, emboldening him to the inevitable “Turning-point”. We can all pray for that! Amen!

    That should have been understood when Dr. Nonis announced his resignation to the media. Earlier he was telling many people that he wanted to resign after the CHOGM but the Prez wanted him to continue. This time also he would not have expected that his letter would be accepted. That why, I believe, he was waiting to see the response. Otherwise, He would have announced his resignation immediately after the incident.

    Now he may ask Her Majesty for a SIR titled.

    Given the plethora of reports on the events in New Jersey, I have drawn together a summary of the views of all concerned, having had to ‘read between the lines’ to make sense of some. Here is what the main actors said.

    Ariyawansa – King of New Jersey. I had no idea that Red Label was so powerful. Actually, to tell the truth, I didn’t see anything because I was busy paying attention to my ‘baduwa’.

    Shaynookie ‘The beautiful and almost virginal’. I like the males around me to be in a state of musth. Nobody called a ‘puckin’ bitch’ but it is possibly that I may not have noticed it at all because ‘they call me that all the time’.

    Sajin baby – all I could hear was puckin’ puckin’ puckin’ I thought ‘nodukkin’ this must be the way diplobuggers talk. Anyway, I cannot remember a thing. Chef, the chicken curry was ‘maru’…..

    Nonis Appu – It was very warm night and, after the first sip, the room started turning and I knew there was trouble ahead when I saw the weird crazy smile of ‘mata hari’ Sheynokia the tale carrier, and then it was puckin’ puckin’ puckin’ pattas! Next thing was I felt my cheek getting hot like somebody had rubbed kochchi miris. Straightaway, without even waiting for the stringhopper feed, I hotfooted to the grand old New York hotel where the Prez of our 2500 year-old civilisation was relaxing and gave him my resignation.The Prez of course kindly refused saying ‘what else will you do? Think about it.

    The Prez: ‘See all the time I have clean up the children’s shit’.

    Keheliya Rambuttangoda – Chief Mouthpiece. ‘Yes’ ‘No’ ‘No’ ‘Yes’ ‘Um Um let me check with the EAM’.

Anyhow, the President of Sri Lanka is known for his iron fist in dealing with terrorists, which we have failed after having invaded two countries.

    Truth to be told, Nonis did business of his Macwoods company misusing the position. Courtesy brother Lorenzo.

    Concerned Sri Lankans in the UK pointed out that according to Government Establishment Code (Chapter XXX titled ‘Rights of Government over its offices’: Sections 1:1 and 1:2), “a government official cannot engage in any other business”.

    They quoted the relevant sections: “The government has a total claim to the time, knowledge, talents and skills of its officers and their salary is fixed on the assumption, unless specifically provided for otherwise. No officer may take part in the affairs of any commercial or business undertaking or of any firm carrying on any description of professional work”.

    One of the key questions asked from prospective candidates under ‘Future Employment Relationships’ is – “will you sever all connections with your present employers, business firms, business associations or business organizations if your proposed appointment is confirmed?”, they pointed out.

    No difference between MR’s brother-in-law Jaliya doing his tea business misusing the US embassy.

    Same lot.

    If anyone is a Rajafucksa appointee, you cannot expect honesty from him.

      One of the main reasons Sirimavo-Kolvin-NM-SA
      Wickramasinha coalition was sent home in 1977
      was corruption.People have almost forgotten
      “Dasa” Mudalali,a govt sponsored business
      tycoon,the sole importer of many consumer
      products.Where’s his empire today?SLFP was
      born to force people into doing what they
      wanted.UNP of JRJ broke their arms never to
      touch private sector once again but they
      still fill the public sector with their
      cronies and henchmen.

    The Rajapakse’s should be careful who they mess with. Nonis is privy to many of the skeletons in the Rajapakse brothers’ cupboards that might bolster the War Crimes charges now teetering at the edges. Nonis’s successor could well be Gotabaya Rajapakse if only he’d learn common etiquette and learn how to use a fork and knife he would need when entertaining foreign diplomats.
