The government has yesterday made an amendment to the List of Designated persons published in the Gazette Extraordinary No. 1854/41 of March 21, 2014. In March 2014, the government domestically designated 16 Tamil diaspora organisations including non existing LTTE and 424 persons under the paragraph 4(2) of the United Nations Regulations No. 1 of 2012.

On behalf of the Non-Resident Tamils of Sri Lanka, I wish to thank the government of Sri Lanka for taking this challenging initiative to create a conducive climate to undo the hostile climate created by the previous government.
This meaningful initiative must progress to find a resolution to the historical conflict involving the Tamils with the wider decentralisation of power to benefit all the communities.

I think you meant to say “on behalf of the organisation called “Non Resident Tamils of Sri Lanka…….”

You said it right Mr. Rajasingham Jayadevan. The Govt. must be thanked for the easing the distrust the Tamils had against successive govts.
Like wise, release the political detainees who had committed minor
offences or no offences and charge those committed serious offences or
give them a general amnesty as they did with the JVP group who took up arms against the govt. but do not hold them in prisons without any charges framed against them. It is understood that the ulterior motive of the govt. is to give the Tamils equal rights and do away with discriminations slowly and steadily. The men and women who went thro’
the torture chambers and if found alive, they should be compensated
and kept happy before it blows up into an international issue.

RE: De-Listing Diaspora Organisations And Individuals: Govt. Amends Gota’s Gazette

Why ISIS, and the Wahhabi and the other clones, and their funders, USA, West, France, Saudi Arabia, Gulf states, Turkey etc. are not there? How Come?
Do they have to be Tamil? That is Discrimination against the Tamils!

“Are you senile. No other group is threatening to create a seperate country in SL.”
No, No and No!
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
“Why ISIS, and the Wahhabi and the other clones, and their funders,”
They are trying to create a separate country in Syria, called ISIS and Introduce Wahhabism. They have already introduced Wahhabism to Lanka, called Salsafis or Tawheed, that follow the Devil, Iblis. May be the West may help them, the way they helped LTTE.
Won’t they try in Lanka, the Land of Native Veddah Aethho, just like the Para-Sinhala, and the Para-Tamils tried, ans so fat only the Para-Sinhala have succeeded.

Is this enough?
Please consider granting dual citizenship free of charge with no questions asked for all applicants who were listed earlier. Introduce a pension scheme for them so that they can live without financial worries wherever they reside.

It is high time the government visited this this file and corrected some wrongs by the previous govt. Any one that spoke about human rights, justice and fair play was branded as a Tiger or a tiger supporter. Where as Raja Inc. murders and drug dealers were carrying DPL passports while getting VIP treatment at air ports and customs.

Poppycock: TGTE still listed for.. wait for it..”Terrorism related activities and Financing of Terrorism” without an iota of evidence!! When was advocating peacefully, diplomatically and democratically for the restoration of Tamil Eelam – as per the legitimate aspirations of the Tamil people – as per the Vaddukoddai resolution which got an overwhelming mandate from the Tamil people, called Terrorism? What’s wrong for the Tamil people to claim what was theirs before Portuguese, Dutch, British and Sinhala rule.Then those who agitated for and still are, namely the people of Scotland and Quebec are terrorists too – Absurd. This is nothing other than Sinhala Buddhist Supremacist bigotry! The Sirisena/Ranil Wickremasinghe government are pursuing the alleged war criminal’s gazette releases, SHAME on them to give credibility to Gota whose infamous secret torture camps and mass graves have been confirmed, requiring full investigation by the UN WGEID that recently visited the island – Gota who should have been condemned to be locked up in prison for his primary role in the Tamil genocide but is being protected and pampered by the new regime!

A concerned Tamil / November 22, 2015
Usha, let me ask you two questions. You appear to be talking big shi& about Tamil Ealam (TE).
•How are you going to establish that?
•Where are your children?
Conclusion: You are one of the many selfish scoundrels who would push for TE through the blood of other people’s children. Your kids are in universities/Colleges safely tucked away in beautiful Canada. Since the family is safe, now it is time to cry for TE. Let the people in SL live peacefully. The two satans (MR/VP) are no more. Leave it be. Work on bringing this MR bugger to justice.
No more TE.

“TGTE still listed…” That’s because the TGTE continue to make excuses for the brutal Tamil Tigers and its psychotic leader, Prabakharan. Wake up and smell the coffee, as the Americans say.

To show a stunt to the western world, the Old Royals used the R 1373, by proscribing democratic organization those were legally functioning in the western world, in the loophole of their resolution. Most countries did did not accept the Gazette notification. So they have been receiving pressure from the ICs to repeal it. Now the New Royals, with the RanilPalanaya has amended with a hope of giving it new oxygen.
This is why Diaspora opposed of TNA supporting the New Royals, that started with CC. TNA foolishly destroyed it and became an axe handle to split the diaspora too. The RanilPalayana which had successfully splitted the LTTE has did it this time to the Diaspora.
This Ranilpalanaya has not simply successfully wedged between TNAs’ members like Sumanthiran and CV, now has inserted a very strong, un-pluckable wedge within the diaspora. This amendment is a very, very powerful wedge between the diaspora. Basically IC’s opposition to use the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1373 to ban democratic organization has been baffoon-ed. The New Royals, the Yahapalanaya Government Made its own correction ti R1373 and removed the interpretation was given by the Old Royals based on the Mahinda Chitanta.
What ever happened, the Old Royals did not feel obligated to provide the evidence to the band organizations for the reason of R 1373 usage. Neither Royals. So any organization proscribed by the New Gazette notification is as void as the old one.

What makes you sure that they have not been in the country at least during the last five years. If the main arms procurer can be a free man in beautiful Sri Lanka why cant the financers. Only they would have had to do was grease the palms of the powers to be.

Why not? As you know one of the largest financiers is still living in Hambantotta and an MP.
You don’t seem to be too concerned about him.

NV, MaRa is a very generous man. He gave $180mm to that toothpaste advertisement idiot from the LTTE by the name Thamilchelvan in the Vanni jungles. These Buddhist nationalists will always be blind to the dirty games MaRa played.

” He gave $180mm to that toothpaste advertisement idiot from the LTTE by the name Thamilchelvan in the Vanni jungles.”
When MR offered the sum VP should have run all the way to New Delhi in order to save his neck and bum. It was not up to Thamilselvan to decide on Vital matters. I am sorry VP decided when Thamilselvan went to toilet.

The West has fooled the diaspora leaders and encouraged the Asia’s longest and bloodiest civil war in Sri Lanka. Now the West has fooled the current government as well. Are you telling me that those eight organizations and 157 individuals only supported the Asia’s longest and bloodiest civil war in Sri Lanka? Just wait and see how the drama unfolds in the future. However, the people of Sri Lanka defeated the foolish diaspora and they will defeat the foolish government in due time.

Director of Strategic Initiatives of Yaahapalalanay (DSIY) & the Boss of GTF London says this is not enough..
“All LTTE and Tiger Oragnzsation, Fronts and activists must be delisted” thunders Mr Suren.
How can Mangalan ignore this call, unless he wants summons to appear in Singapore.
Bishop Raiappu may now have to report to Reverend Emmanuel at least on Political matters..Right.dudes !!!
Reverend Emma may even demand that Holy Mother of Madhu come under his protection because he was the custodian when his ex boss Mr Pirahaparan was around.
There is is no way that East can be claimed as Thamil Homeland ,now that Baththudeen is in charge.
And the Whabiss hold the Balance of Power in Yahapalanay Government.with the disenchanted young UNP Turks like Harin and Sajith holding JVP like meetings after dark , to liberate their beloved party from Maithri and his minders Rajitha, Chamapaka ,Venerable Rathna and even Rajitha’s mongrel pup. who is now in parliament representing the Elite and the Anglicans in Gampaha.
