Gota Must Go

By Mangala Samaraweera – MP

Mangala Samaraweera

Over a month ago in June, we said in a statement released to the media, “This country, can not afford to allow such an inefficient, non administrative service person to handle a serious and important ministry as its Secretary, and allow the country to go chaotic and into anarchy. People of this country, what ever their political affiliations can not live with such unsolved crime, dictated by politically backed armed thugs under a Secretary, who is not even willing to accept he is a total failure as a State officer.”

Defence Ministry Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapakse has again proved us more than right. He has not only proved he is “inefficient”, he has also proved he is wholly uncultured and uncivilised too, to hold even the most menial of all public posts. His verbal purging thrown on journalist cum editor of the Sunday Leader, Ms. Fredrica Jansz, should have immediately grounded the entire print and electronic media into a loud halt in any other country. Most unfortunately it is not that here. Even those men and women who talk about internet obscenity and want websites banned for polluting a great ‘Sinhala culture’, is yet to speak their first words on how vulgar and threatening, the language of the Defence Ministry Secretary is.

With such a person who continues to break all the rules of the establishment code with his arrogant, uncouth and psychotic behaviour giving leadership to the Ministry of Defence, it is not suprising that the law and order situation in the country has totally collapsed. The law of the jungle is preailing today and it is not surprising no to hear the Police media spokesperson say, during the first 06 months of this year, the police have recorded 975 cases of rape against women and 700 of them were against teenage and little girls. This society knows it is Rajapaksa’s ruling political party thugs brought in as local government nominees and voted as members who have gone maniac in raping and sexually abusing young girls. A new and insane political culture at grass roots is now being nurtured with rape against women and young girls growing and drugs pedalled into villages with political patronage. This most certainly would be the local election machine of this Rajapaksa regime, when elections are fixed in the future. The police are therefore kept inactive and at times complicit in crimes committed by these political thugs, with pressure brought on the police.

We therefore once again say quite clearly and with responsibility, its the culture of impunity under this Ministry Secretary, who does not know his language is foul and vulgar, knows not his ways of reacting to queries and criticism is much less than sane, that had allowed this society to go this beastly and wild.

Unbridled power, he thinks he could wield with vulgar threats, is definitely intolerably anti social. If still the President does not remove Gotabhaya Rajapaksa from the post of Secretary to the Ministry of Defence and Urban Development, we don’t hesitate to say, its the right of the people to demand his removal from his office, immediately.

We therefore call upon all democratic organisations, trade unions and independent professional organisations to join us in bringing this maniacal administrator to leave his post for a saner, competent person to have law and order re established, in a decent and a disciplined way.

    So should you. You and Ranil together with a few others are ruining the only hope people have for a alternative governing option.

      The UNP MUST ask the international community to BOYCOTT Gota’s show next month when the Sri Lanka Army will hold the ‘Defence Seminar-2012′ with the participation of foreign experts on the post-war 5Rs – Rehabilitation, Re-integration, Re-construction, Resettlement and Reconciliation. Defence and Urban Development Ministry Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa will deliver the keynote address. The three-day seminar is scheduled to be held from August 8-10 on the theme ‘Towards Lasting Peace and Stability’. Reconciliation is non existent in Sri Lanka at this time and
      MILITARIZATION IS THE PROBLEM AND NOT THE SOLUTION! For reconciliation there needs to be peace-makers not uneducated war makers speaking like Gota the goon speaking. This is a joke that so many international delegates are taking part. As them to stay away.
      Over 63 countries have been invited to attend the seminar in Colombo and over 100 foreign delegates are expected to participate in the event that will present subject experts from foreign countries on post-war 5Rs spheres. The international community MUST boycott Sri lanka’s GOTA THE GOON!

      Maggie says “Gota MUST go” …
      There is no difference of the LTTE rump and the Maggie …
      Both are living in the world of dreams and no idea about the ‘reality’…
      LTTE rump thinks that the LTTE had won the war outright and wanted the full pound of flesh …
      Maggie thinks that he is the most popular leader in the country and demanding ‘MUST’s …
      Maggie always plays to the IC gallery who are hellbent on destroying SL by releasing ‘we are concerned…’, ‘we are really concerned…”, ‘we are extremely concerned’ media releases … .. These ‘democratic’ leaders like Maggie shivers uncontrollably when the word ‘election’ mentioned … What pathetic opposition SL has!

        If you haven’t already been awarded one, let me nominate you here and now for a PhD in GIBBERISH.

        I know this page has a moderator to ensure that abuse and such do not appear on it. However, it does seem to need someone to ensure that totally incomprehensible nonsense parading as erudition doesn’t appear as well.

    Yes Gota must go, so must Mervyn. But that is easier said than done. The President has decided to have near and dear ones in his government. Jokers who are unqualified, crude, and arrogant. Whatever these thugs say or do, does not seem to faze Mahinda. After all, it is this type who will do his bidding and the dirty work.
    Gota has brought the already low standards of this government into the gutter. What an embarrassment to
    this country, that the world can see us for what we are – a banana republic run by a gang of corrupt, unqualified group of thugs.

      I would better propose Mervin to fill up the long vacant “Hangman” position. That suits him the best. Mervin is a disgrace for the entire lanken community. I cant remember that we ever had such personalities in our history after independence. See, even if he remains a malign cancer to the parliament and nation, whatever he does -is not being investigated, no charges.

    Now the UNP must realise that , Because of the ledership of UNP and the weekness that the Masses cannot come forward to protest, Ranil keep enjoing the benifits from MR and he does not talk when the Oppotunity arrives.

    Rohan K, hansan et al

    Common guys, you have to grow up. Please learn to live with the opposition leaders we have – we have no other alternative. If you wish to keep Mahinda in power for many generations you can go on criticising the opposition leaders.

    In a way you must praise these opposition leaders for refusing to accept Mahinda’s ministerial post, car, luxury bungalow and unlimited corruption money from official positions. The opposition leaders are still sticking to their guns because of their conviction in good governance, discipline and the rule of law. You must remember Magala threw away a juicy ministerial post because he refused to say ‘yes, sir’ to these psychopath brothers.

    ALL ANTI-MAHINDA FORCES MUST UNITE TO REMOVE THIS MOST CORRUPT REGIME FROM POWER – THAT’S THE NEED OF THE HOUR. WE CAN SQUABBLE ABOUT MANGALA/RANIL/SAGITH LATER.

    Really? YOu guys think that by replacing Gota or MR or Basil everything will be ok? That the country will be a model for democracy and all our economic woes will be over? As far as i can see this dog issue is an administrative issue and not a political one and nothing is going to change by just removing Gota

    P.S: Its alarming that you people have forgotten that Gota saved Fred J’s saved her during the white flag case. Sheesh, memory of a gold fish

      Real Peace:
      For starters you’ve spelled your pseudonym wrong and it is incomplete as well. Judging by what you write it should read, “Real PIECE of S..t”

    Another Saddam Hussein, or Hosni Mubarak, or Assad or is it a Frankenstein that we are seeing in the neighbourhood. When the killing of innocent tamils were started (not saying prabhakaran was a saint, but innocent tamils who were shot dead point blank) and prabhakaran was killed, all of SL rejoiced and in their joy they never saw the monster that they created. This is a self inflicted wound. Now a day will come when the chinese will buy SL with full blessings of the rajapakse clan and others and then no one would be able to save SL, only God. Democracy is gone rather its dictatorship now in SL.

    ALL ARE Still Celebrating and Gloating.

    Because WE WON A WAR ???????.

    Think Tanks, Intellectuals, and Bureaucrats,. please Think.

    I Remember the Story Of Nero the Emperor who “fiddled while Rome burned”
    Foolish Voters given opportunity to Rulers and their families to wine dine and dance.

    Mother SRI LANKA BURNING, with looting of government money, theft of lands, over taxing of masses. Drug crimes killing crime raping and sexually abusing of young Children and women by politicians /politico-sons and their goon stooges.operating of abductors, killer mafias.
    All these done by Ruling Politicians With the help of S L Security Establishments.

    SO Who cares .

    RULERS MAY HAVE GOT INSTRUCTIONS to Start TO GOVERN LIKE CHINESE SYSTEM.

    ALL UNDER THE CUNNING BRAIN OF MINISTRY OF DEFENSE.

    Ex;MOST OF THE CHINESE COMPANIES AND CORPORATIONS ARE OWNED OR SHARED BY PEOPLE’S LIBERATION ARMY.
    Which is not suitable for SRI LANKA AS WE HAVE FEW POLITICAL PRISONERS.

    First Mr.Gotabhaya Rajapakse must learn to control his temper. It is understandable that,when hears FJ’s vioce he goes off the rocker but as a senior public servant he should’nt loose his temper. Best thing for him to do is to refuse to talk to FJ. He has every right to do that since she has been reprimanded by the courts and apologised to Mr. Rajapakse on previous occations.
    This whole thing was a result of a totally unnecessary act of a stupid idiot who thought to impress GR.

    What a disgrace this man is! He was Minister of Media when the LTTE took total control of the Vanni, lost Elephant pass and allowed the bombers free passage into the city. He filled Lake House with the incompetent and the criminals. The Rajakarunanayake brothers, the Security men were all his “boys” from Matara. Not qualified at anything but they were able to say “We know Mangala”. How did this man who kneels before the “big” families Bandaranaikes and Jayawardena/Wickremasinghes suddenly become a paragon of virtue to be able to say who should be in charge? All the journalists on the run were his spies at Lake House and those who were fractionally against him and his mistress CBK (not sexually)weree banned to Siberia. One man Clifford Hailer was even banned to Anuradhapura on false charges. Manbgala should remember that he had the JVP accuse Ranil of the Batalanda Torture camp deaths. He was not man enough to do it himself spo he had proxy. Mahinda was always on the side of the weak. remember?
    Susanthika Jayasinghe the woman who looked like a “negro man” to this lover of anal activity. You must have a very short memory Mangala but then there are proper journalists who were there when a man who had finished a ten year stretch at Welikada for stealing Rs 10,000 from a Corporation was accepted as a “journalist” at the Daily News at a thumping Rs 18,000 to start with while the real journalists were at Rs 8000. Can you at least now tell us who killed the Satana Editor on your watch. Was it [Edited out]?
