Sri Lankan High Commissioner to the UK, Chris Nonis says that although he is unable to comment on the reports that are being circulating of him being assaulted by Sajin Vass, he is sure everyone knows of what happened to him.
Nonis speaking to Newsfirst had made this statement and they the program’s Twitter handle updated this status a short while ago:
News1st @newsfirst_en –
“I can’t comment. I’m sure everyone knows. But I can’t comment at this stage. I’m a professional…”- Dr Nonis to #News1st
Colombo Telegraph was the first to expose the assault on Nonis by the Monitoring MP for External Affairs Sajin Vass in the presence of the Eternal Affairs Ministry Secretary Kshenuka Senwiratne and it was further revealed by Colombo Telegraph, of the immediate steps that was taken by President Rajapaksa to impose a state and private media blackout on the incident soon after his return to Colombo from New York.
Despite his attempts however the story was eventually reported in local media but all of the news reports have withheld from naming the Sajin Vass.
“I can’t comment. I’m sure everyone knows. But I can’t comment at this stage. I’m a professional..”- Dr Nonis to #News1st#srilanka#lka

Dr Nonis forfeited the right to call himself professional after he choose to leave a noble career and opt to mix with a bunch of crooks and thugs, below your class. It was a bad career move. Sadly, any further high office will be determined by the parameters set by this very public public punishment – as bad as being tied to a tree and shamed.
Dr Nonis: You THOUGHT you were defending our 2500 year-old civilisation – you were NOT. You were just shielding a Regime that was not man enough to answer those questions that needed to in the aftermath of the worst debacle to befall our thrice-blessed island.
Dr Nonis: Your best option now would be to opt of public life. Dedicate the remainder of your life to charitable works and thereby redeem your dignity and honour. There is much redemption and respect still available to you.

First of all we are so proud of you and believe that you can do so much to re gain the lost reputation of our country, with respect to diplomatic immaturity.
There are rumors that you have resigned from the diplomatic service.
Only if it is true, you need to know that it is never easy to do the right thing. Moreover, you also need to understand that you do not serve one person who may tried to pull your leg, but a population who need you and your capabilities to make a nation survive with dignity.
I kindly beg you to reconsider your decision for the sake of our generation and many more yet to come..
All the best and we admire you..pls do not let us down..

Chris also remember that you cannot serve a nation when the Authorities noose around your neck and pull and push to get to do things like a puppet master. Then first thing you have to do is get yourself out of the tangle and otherwise you be a puppet of AMBALANGODA and PUPPET MASTER is Sajin of AMBALANGODA.

And how he is going to teach Arabs to fight the West and corner them. Guess his hiding place is Wellington New Zealand of all places a Western country. You may have come across him as well in Wellington New Zealand by the name of Peter LTTE sympathizer living on unemployment benefit from Kiwi tax payer. By the way his first name is Antony.

Feel sad about the current situation of country. All the politicians including MR, raping it together. But according to the Karma, all of them will suffer & they wont be able to bear the curse of suffering people.
We all ways appreciate your work sir. For us, you are a hero. Just like war heros. Respect you…!!!

Heard the sad news that you have tendered your resignation. We are really sad about that since you were one of the few who truly represented Sri Lanka and only one who had guts and brain to defend country diplomatically in front of the media mafia.
If there is any possibility of thinking back about your decision, please be in office for the country. We dont know what is the truth of the stories behind this decision. We respect your personal decisions but this is a moment we need you there. If you can rethink and sacrifice your personal thoughts for a moment, we really appreciate. You might have lost some thing in a battle (we don’t accept it in any ways) but solders lost their lives and parts of body, they now salute the former LTTE leaders since they want to keep the peace for country, not that they feel bad but they have to forgo personal ego…. If you have become a subject of headless politician, dont worry much, you are not the first one or last one. Just avoid them since no one will take actions against them…. Do not associate because they are not your class. (asewanacha Balana )
We urge you to remain in office for the country and general public really appreciate your exceptional work. Please reconsider !!

“We are really sad about that since you were one of the few who truly represented Sri Lanka and only one who had guts and brain to defend country diplomatically in front of the media mafia.
The only mafia most of us know are MR’s mafia with enforcers and hit men with and without uniforms.
“If there is any possibility of thinking back about your decision, please be in office for the country.”
And do what? Everyone is bragging about Nonis service but can anyone be specific as to what he has achieved. UK took us to the cleaners at the CW as well as UN. It has publicly called for an international investigation and accused of war crimes all on his watch.
“We respect your personal decisions but this is a moment we need you there.”
Give me a break and get real.
“If you can rethink and sacrifice “
What sacrifice? According to news coming out now, you got drunk and could not keep your mouth shut. Sajin Vaas only tried to protect a women’s honor. I think he is the victim in all this.

Sandy / October 3, 2014
Nonis is the worst HC we ever had in London. We would like to argue with anyone who wants to come up with fact to prove Nonis has done a yeoman service.
1. Dressed up in a tail coat and a top hat to represent Sri Lanka when he met the queen.
2. Never replied to letters, telephone calls or Emails. There are plenty organisations, members of community have not even an acknowledgement for last 3 years.
3. Nonis says that he has managed to lobby so many British MPs. But by now we have lost all the labour MPs, remaining only couple of conservative MPs , but they are also not powerful. Last Wednesday all the other Torrie MPs joined tiger band wagan. So what has he done? He couldn’t convince a single British MP since Sep 2011. If he has done any we need proof.
4. Because of his negligence, ignorance and giving free hand to operate without any monitoring and countering pro LTTE activities become more powerful than never before. They managed to meet British PM, and now getting support from both leading political parties. Read what Foreign Sec Hugo Sware and his predecessor William Hague have told about SL. So Nonis is NO WHERE
5. Treats staff as shit/ inhumanly. Sacked many talented career diplomats making false accusations. Not allow others to do any work. Staff does not say any word against this Hitler just to keep their jobs. He doesn’t like talented people prefer sleeping beauties , because then he can ignore all the diplomatic work and countering LTTE propaganda.
6. Adviced staff not to invite anyone who has critisised him to the HC and those who have knowledge about Diaspora activities.
7. He says that he has friend at the top yet couldn’t stop UN investigation. He says British PM, the Palace and UK MPs are under control. Then show us results. Nothing happening in favour of SL. LTTE is thriving
8. Driver (Dhanapala) not allows to use servant toilet at HC’s official residence even he is desperate and he uses an empty water bottle for urinate. Keep choo bottle in the car boot and dump in a bin later. Is this the way educated, talented diplomat behaves, treat his driver? Is this our culture, civilization?
9. Pretends he has consent from the President for these entire closely associate Presidents to control others and deceive the public.
10. Promote tea and his businesses. Less priority to diplomatic job. Control business deals carry out by trade division and hide trade deals. Conflict of interests.
11. Very difficult to meet, if you ask a question, youl will be fired. You will be very lucky if you get an appointment. But waiting time is 1.30-2 hrs. If nonis gives an appointment at 10pm you will be called in by 12.00 mid day. You have to wait outside. He wants to show that he is very difficult to meet, very busy person. He does this purposely enjoy watching you waiting outside from cctv screen fixed on his desk.
12. Nonis tried to cover up his blunder during diamond jubilee. All the diplomats those who have a knowledge said not to organise any events outside jubilee programme, but Nonis went his own way and betrayed President by organising Commonwealth Business Forum event at mansion house event because he is a director there. Now commonwealth Business forum is gone bust. As a director he should have inside knowledge about performance of those 2 yers ago.
13. Made two secretaries including highly talented Orissa De Silva to resign from the job by shouting at them in dirty, filthy words. So using filthy, dirty, rude words are not new to Nonis. He uses them all the time to treat his slaves (staff) at High Commission in London
14. Sri Lanka government pays £16,500 per month for Nonis house rent.
So I challenge this forum to come up with fact to counter these points I have raised. I have more information if you want to know. No need lip service, we need action. If Nonis is talented definitely I take my hat off for him for the service he does. But he is NOT. He is doing a grave damage to SL.
/
Lanka Watch / October 3, 2014
Sandy – If all 14 points you have raised are authentic, then this man does not deserve any sympathy from the public. Nonis may have talked out of turn in the party or indirectly criticised the govt. in his diplomatic language, which probably annoyed Vass. Based on the qualities of the man,you have described, he will never give up the job at any cost and business will be as usual from next week

My Dear Matty
I was taken aback to see all that vitriol from your sweet mouth You were spewing filth and fire at the same time at Sajin Vaas when all that he did was to defend a dame’s honour !
Never mind that, be that as it may (as our mutual friend Hoona used to pen) you ask a very relevant question…where neville de Silva is
I hope that you do get to see him soon, he is in Sri Lanka at the moment after being “fired” by the much admired Dr Nonis, Neville was criticising Dr Nonis brutally prior to his departure from UK I hear
In a another post, Sandy lists a number of issues that bring the character of Dr Nonis in to question, he unforunately misss out on Neville, but when you find Neville I am sure that you can get him to confirm all that Sandy has mentioned and hear more about media’s favourite Doctor
Then you may see this incident in a different light and even maybe you will see Sajin Vass (not the politician but the defender of a woman’s valour) in a different light
Ta’ra

Incident in which HC is assulated sounds as if a servant boy attacked to the invitee. This can only be possible Rajapakshe therories. Mahinda Rajapakshe has no what soever kind of cultured behaviours. Today,as we read on the tabloid, as if nothing is occured, Sajin accompanied so called president of the nation to Vatican.
And also my question, at a time, the majoirty of people struggle for their 3 meals, president to merrygoround using srilanken carrier as his pvt taxi – is most stupidst act of MR as the president of a developing nation. Instead of asterity measures are being introduced to the nation, he himself to waste tax payers funds this manner is beyond all ethics and bearing. And the fact for what we have got appointed a Foeign minister if President should do FM work too, as if he has no better things to do on this agenda. Where have we the nation been ?

As you have claimed that you are professional, any professional with a back bone would not stay around after the insult and the beating that he has taken at the hands of his masters. He would simply pack his bags and go home and look for another job whilst taking legal action for the wrong doing.
But then you are also a professional boot licker and you will hang around for the perks.

Only a non-professional would pack his/her bags and go away and then, engage in mud-slinging. Dr Nonis has proved he is a professional by not acting on emotions, but keeping within principles governing the position he holds.
However, if the story is true and Sajin Vass has acted like a thug, then, he has proved he is not a good diplomat and a disgraceful person not fit to represent Sri Lanka in any international forum. Hopefully the President would shift him to affairs within Sri Lanka.

You have to sympathise with the pragmatist Nonis. Despite his debating skills (as effectively shown in BBC’s Hard Talk) his job is at stake as he does not belong to the inner group of cohorts to the Rajapakse regime as does Mervyn Silva and Vass Gunewardene among others. These people believe in violence to resolve all their ills. I believe Nonis repeatedly advised the Rajapakses to reinstate the Dual Nationality scheme because of its massive advantages in revenue and skills but they, especially Gotabaya, whose paranoia steadfastly refuses it citing no disadvantages except the keeping out of alleged LTTE supporters. This is absurd as we have an efficient Intelligence Unit that can monitor it and even if we cannot stop them, it would be easier to monitor their activities within Sri Lanka than outside it.

After all being a capitalist businessman he will opt for the second! I take a bet 1:100 on this!

Nonis after having his single marble sack in the groin kicked by Vass Gona is In a terrible quandary . If he resigns ,there will be 3 possible consequences.1. A white van will pick him up immediately on arrival at BIA and then he will disappear.2.He could meet with a fatal accident as he drives home after arriving at the BIA.3)His beloved Mackwoods Ltd will be destroyed salami style ,piece by piece,slice by slice.Not even his spiritual mentor Cardinal Malcom Ranjith can save him from the situation he himself has got into.
So dear miserable Nonis is paying a terrible price for defending and sleeping with dogs and now awakening only to find he has ticks all over his body.Too late pal just suffer the consequences and if it gets unbearable just prescribe yourself an Over Dose.After all u are a Doctor of Medcine, aren’t you?
Alas! The photo of Nonis above has a board which says “Fire Exit”. In the context of the situation he is now that is ironic.This is one situation from which poor Nonis would have great difficulty in making an honorable exit.Did I use the “honorable” here?Is Nonis a gentleman in the first place?

Giving the boot to bootlickers is a hallowed tradition of Sri Lankan imperial rulers, this one about King Rajkasighe II. See: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/14346/14346-h/14346-h.htm
Thus he often deals with those, whose Children are his Attendants. I mentioned before, that young Men of the best Families in the Land, are sought out to wait upon the King in his Court. These after they have served here some small time, and have as it were but seen the Court, and known his Customs and Manners, he requiteth them by cutting off their Heads, and putting them into their Bellies: other faults none do know. Heretofore, as it is reported, he was not so Cruel, but now none escapes, that serves in his Palace. Then he recruits his Slain out of the Countries, by giving Orders to his Dissava’s or Governors to send him others to Court. Whither they go like an Ox to the Slaughter, but with far more heavy hearts. For both they and their Parents full well know what end the King’s honorable Service will bring them to. Howbeit there is no remedy. Being thus by Order sent unto the Court, their own Parents must provide for and maintain them, until the King is pleased to call them to his Use which it may be will not be in some years. Sometimes it happens, that the Boys thus brought, before the King makes use of them about his Person, are grown too big, and so escape. But those that are employed in the Palace, enjoy this favour, That all such Taxes, Customs, or other Duties belonging to the King, which their Fathers were wont to pay, are released, until such time as they are discharged from the King’s Employment; which is always either by Execution, or by being given to somebody for perpetual Bondmen. During the time of the King’s favour, he is never admitted to go home to Visit his Parents and Friends. The Malekind may come to see him, but no Women are admitted, be it his Mother that bare him. And after he is killed, tho’ for what no man knows, he is accounted a Rebel and Traitor against the King: and then his Father’s House, Land and Estate is seized on for the King. Which after some time by giving of Fees and Gifts to the great ones, they do redeem again: And sometimes the whole Family and Generation perish, as I said before. So that after a Lad is taken into the King’s Palace, his Kindred are afraid to acknowledge Alliance to him. But these matters may more properly be related, when we come to speak of his Tyranny.
Nor is his wrath appeased by the Execution of the Malefactor, but oftentimes he punisheth all his Generation; it may be kills them alltogether, or gives them all away for Slaves.

Nonis is very correct in his prediction that no action will be taken to deal with his savage attacker Sachin Vass Gonaa.Infolanka of today states that he and the woman who is the cause of it all,Shenuka de Silva Nuhuman Seneviratne are on a presidential delegation to meet His Holiness The Pope.
Oh dear Oh dear !!!!! Some one must quickly inform His Holiness to wear some sort of groin guard and helmet and pads that cricketers wear because Sajin Vass Gonaa would definitely meet the Pontiff.Who knows……Sajin Gonaaa might well kick the poor man.
Nonis please be a good Catholic and warn the Pope,so that the Swiss guards that protect him would well prepared to deal with Vass Gonaa.

There is a Sinhalese saying that if you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. This is to say that when you associate with corrupt, bad people you are definitely going to suffer at some time. It is like Karma coming after you. This is an advice man of caliber of Dr. Nonis should have learnt in childhood. I appreciate that he did a great job in defending the country against international backlash. In the process he tried to justify many unreasonable acts of the government including serious human rights violations. I hope the above incident and the proverb will teach a great lesson to many professional public officials like Central Bank Governor, Chief justice and many more judges and others who go “shopping “with the government for various reasons.

“Sure Everyone Knows What Happened”
Only thing everyone or most are sure is that your no different from any other state pampered brat that will go any distance to protect the mafia regime and its crimes against its own people while making the most possible as long as it lasts.
You call your self a professional but from where I stand your a disgrace to the office you hold. At the minimum you should have demanded a apology at the very instant or tendered your resignation. You did neither and doing that now is only damage control.
How are you going to represent the country when the other knows that your a straight face liar without a backbone even to protect your own self.

Dr Nonis says I am a professional and I can’t comment. What kind of logic this. You are not the only professional, there are thousands and thousands of professionals. Are you saying that they cannot comment on anything that concerns them?.
Dr Nonis, please tell us in simple words is it yes or no!.

You need to sue the person who assaulted you. If you dont do it that person will never get penalized.

Now we know the reason why TNA does not want to meet the president in person as they do not want to get their faces shifted. That’s why they
want Mother India in the middle of any conversation. We understand your
predicament you are placed in,so please hold your talks until Mr. Modi
steps into the country with Subramania Swamy as India’s special envoy,
and he will do the talking on your behalf and arrange for the extinction of Tamil race in United Sri lanka.

Nonis, The Professional,
Don’t worry this Karma period will pass through as masses are gullible and forget things faster,even before your swellings on the
face comes down and you will once again become the darling of the govt and could continue with your lying sessions but please ensure to avoid those rascals at BBC,CNN or NBC as they will strip you down if you confront them.

Was it the UNP Ranil who met Dr Nonis after the alleged attack?.
Is that the reason for UNP Heavy Kiriella to demand an UN type Investigation?.
Is this aprt of the latest revelation from Sirikotha by some MP Lady that the UNP Ranil has a secret plan to defeat Rajapaksa.
And all will be revealed ASA the date is announced.
But the UNP Senior the chief Opp Whip Mr John Amaratunga is sitting with the Prez and his Missus in the SLA flight to see the Holy See.
Isn’t Mr Amaratunga the custodian of the Bible Belt Vote Bank?.
Is he going to deliver it lock stock and barrel as gratuity for allowing the these Christian Dalits their once in a life opportunity to see their Holy Father in real flesh.
Can the Nonis factor neutralize the Bible Belt Vote?.

“Having profusely apologised for the inconvenience caused, the extremely courteous official explained that Gunawardena had been compelled to rush to the airport and join President Mahinda Rajapaksa, who would invite Pope Francis to visit Sri Lanka early next year.” The Island 3-10-2014
PAPAL SECURITY PLEASE NOTE THE ARRIVAL OF THE SLAPPER. EVEN IF HE PERFORMS THE SAME ACT ON THE POPE PRESIDENT WILL NOT TAKE ACTION.

Nonis said, everyone knows what happened? I know what happened, nothing happened is what happened. Almost 50,000 civilians were killed because of the damn LTTE buggers and the dreadful SL Army and this clown denied all in the UK, lied through his teeth. Then he also went onto say, that wonderful developments were going on in Jaffna. Therefore, I am categorically stating, nothing happened to this fool. Sajin is a wonderful bloke and he was not even there at the dinner. I hope all gets the drift!!!!
