President Mahinda Rajapaksa has persuaded Chris Nonis, the Sri Lanka High Commissioner in the UK to continue in his post although he got mercilessly assaulted by Sajin Vass Gunawardena, Monitoring MP for the External Affairs Ministry.
He had told Nonis that he will take strong action against Gunawardena but other sources told Colombo Telegraph this was a ploy. “He will not take any action against Sajin Vass because he does all his dirty work,” said an External Affairs Ministry source in Colombo.
With the face swollen from a slap, Nonis has left London for Birmingham to attend the Conservative Party annual conference. Among those he is expected to meet there is Opposition Leader, Ranil Wickremesinghe.
Vass Gunawardena and Kshenuka Seneviratne are now known to be very close friends, earlier enemies now known to be very close friends. That is how he gives orders her to change anyone in the Ministry whom he does not like. Last Tuesday night he was drunk on Blue Label Whisky at Dilan Ariyawansa’s New York residence.
President Mahinda Rajapaksa, who returned to Colombo from New York, after attending the UN has ordered the state and private media to blackout the news and not report anything on this matter. He personally spoke to everyone concerned.
The incident took place at the house of Dilan Ariyawansa, who is now Director of Sri Lankan Airlines in New York. He has thrown a dinner for many members of Rajapaksa’s team taking part in UN General Assembly. Ariyawansa was originally sent to New York as an employee-manager of Sri Lanka Travel Inc. in 2000 by Lalith Kotelawala and was involved in many controversies.
One of the persons who took part in the dinner told the Colombo Telegraph that among those who took part in the dinner were Nonis, Foreign Secretary Kshenuka Seneviratne and Sajin Vass Gunawardena.
In a highly intoxicated state, Gunawardena MP has got involved in an argument with Nonis. He called him a “bloody pariah” and accused him of using the words “fucking bitch on Kshenuka Seneviratne.” He has raised his hands and given Nonis a thundering slap forcing him to fall on the ground. Thereafter, Gunawardena has continued to kick High Commissioner Nonis. His toe was hurt because of this and he was walking with a bandage.
Nonis did not sit for the string hopper, chicken curry and seeni sambol dinner. He drew to the five star NEW YORK HOTEL Rajapaksa stayed and gave his resignation. The next morning he took a flight from New York to London.
Nonis complained to a member of the Sri Lanka delegation Rajapaksa will not take any action against Gunawardena. He had revealed Rajapaksa told him I will deal with the fellow but nothing will happen, he said.

Chris Nonis,
“President Mahinda Rajapaksa has persuaded Chris Nonis, the Sri Lanka High Commissioner in the UK to continue in his post although he got mercilessly assaulted by Sajin Vass Gunawardena, Monitoring MP for the External Affairs Ministry.”
“Nonis CHe had told Nonis that he will take strong action against Gunawardena but other sources told Colombo Telegraph this was a ploy. “He will not take any action against Sajin Vass because he does all his dirty work,” said an External Affairs Ministry source in Colombo.”
Amarasiri has a suggestion or two for you.
Tell the MaRa that you will take Sajin Vass Gunawardena’s Job of Dirty Work, and ask MaRa to appoint Sajin Vass Gunawardena,to be the UK High Commissioner.
After he is appointed, beat him up.
Or ,if you have any honor left, just, quit or jump into the English Channel.

Nilanta / September 30, 2014
I think you all should look at the bigger picture….this is not a simple incident that happened. It has far more grater implications…. Whatever said or done nonis has has achieved something that no other high commissioner was able to achieve the respect and admiration of the British parliamentarians aswell as Cameroon him self. He is probably the only person who could pic up the phone and speak to the prime minister, to the palace or any mp.
The last 3 years in office he has been promoting SL saying that the rule of law applies, there is freedom, all equally treated etc… And now for him to be assaulted in New York, a day before the president address the assembly MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT assaults the High Commissioner to the UK….if this can happen to an ambassador and the person can evolved is still an Mp well that’s means whatever is said is true…and eventually the Late diaspora wins…
/
burt / September 30, 2014
“Whatever said or done nonis has has achieved something that no other high commissioner was able to achieve the respect and admiration of the British parliamentarians aswell as Cameroon him self.”
What makes you come to this conclusion knowing well bow British parliament and Cameroon treats SL. We saw it at the CW as well as the UN. Who are you trying to fool?
“He is probably the only person who could pic up the phone and speak to the prime minister, to the palace or any mp.”
This is bull and you know it or you don’t have a clue of the British system.
“The last 3 years in office he has been promoting SL saying that the rule of law applies, there is freedom, all equally treated etc…”
So you agree he was a straight face liar with no integrity or honesty.
“And now for him to be assaulted in New York”
It looks like he got what he deserved. He is young he should smarten-up and try to live a honest life without prostituting himself for luxury.
/
Susantha / September 30, 2014
Nilante, how do you know all these rubbish?
“Take a phone and talk to Cameroon and the palace directly” Are you mad? Who told you this crap?
NO-nis is nowhere. As SLHC, he has ordinary diplomatic access to all those places, nothing else. He hasn’t build up any friendly relations with anyone. Have you seen the way David Cameron behaved in Colombo during CHOGM? That’s my answer.
Since the day No-nis assumed office in September 2011 not a single British MP was won over by him. So what the point of talking about his fluency in English, capabilities and talents ect. No-nis is British citizen grabbed this post by giving a huge donation to 2010 Presidential election.
/
Nilanta / October 1, 2014
Well that’s my point. He is no ordinary diplomat. Have you ever thought why he was appointed in the first place. It is because of the access he had even before becoming a high commissioner. Cameroon studied at Eaton. No he was at St. Paul. He is the nly Sri Lankan to be the deputy chairman of the royal society. The only Pearson from Sri Lanka to be on on a trust of Prince Charles…..it was because ofnthat he was ropped in.. Tell me my other everyone from sl who has that…

Thank Bacchus !! Most Sri lankans are drunkards and gamblers, with high rate of suicide to cap it all off.
leaving aside the many issues the sinhalese buddhists have within their society (example cattle slaughtered because too many buddhists consume same), they are highly worried about other community issues.
Firstly make grass root level effort to reform the Buddhists, then 70% is in the bag, sadly they look at other communities (30%) achievements and try to stop their progress.
More buddhists have to think on these lines and assert themselves without toeing the line of Rabble rousing Bodhu bala senas rhetorics

Ben Hurling / September 30, 2014
It is indeed a grave mistake to let the “Baggage Boy” get away.
Dr. Nonis must act with dignity and fight back. Not listen to King Kong who is a Con Artist himself. Specialised in baliing out criminals by sweet talking to victims.
Dr. Nonis must at once file a complain with either Metropolitan Police or NYPD.
Unlike utterly corrupt, boot-licking Sri Lanka Police above named Police Departments would act.
Most likely the “Baggage Boy” would be invited for a polite chat “Down Town” upon arrival in either USA or UK to discuss assault. Next time around.
It would atleast keep the Baggage Boy at Bay from both UK & USA. Saving enormous amounts of funds in terms of Baggage Boy’s travel expenses to impoverished Sri Lankan tax payers.
That in itself will be a big service to our country.
Cheers!

He has been advising GoSL to reinstate the Dual Nationality program because of its huge benefits in revenue and skills but the morons headed by Gotabaya paranoid with LTTE supporters gaining it keep saying no. It should be easier to control the LTTE supporters, if the hordes exist as claimed, within SL than abroad.
/
Sylvia Haik / September 30, 2014
I hope not as Sri Lanka is already the laughing stock in world politics thanks to Mervyn Silva and his thuggery. Poor Nonis must be at the end of his tether as the Rajapakses don’t take a blind bit of notice to his advices. He has been advocating the reinstatement of the Dual Nationality scheme for years for its benefit in revenue and skills, but the morons, led by Gota himself keep saying no for fear it will be flooded with LTTE supporters. It is not true as they are more effective abroad. He has not got the mental capacity to know it is far easier to control the LTTE supporters within SL than outside it. It looks like the regime is relying on the BBS to divide the communities and hand them the election.

Sajin Sir!
GL Peiris must be shivering now. GL tells various things against you with Namal. Among other things he has told Namal to ensure that your close relative General Prasad Samarasinghe should not be appointed as the next Army Commander.
Now we hope GLP will keep quite. We know that you have got only one boss and he knows that you will deliver anything. Sri Lanka will become a paradise soon if we have got another dozen of people like you. I am telling you this seriously. When you are doing your best to improve the Foreign Service with young blood it is natural that people with vested interests will continue to criticise you. Let the dogs bark you need not worry. Let them learn the hard way.
No one likes Nonis. People at Mackwoods are damn happy over what you have done to Nonis. They say that you should have removed some of his false teeth.Ideal place for Nonis is Angoda and not London HC. Nonis will continue in his HC post even if you make him paralysed. He does his Mackwoods tea promotion without any cost to his company. At the same time Mackwoods people say that Nonis will not leave Rajapakse company as he does very lucrative business with the Army by selling power using his Kirloskar generators. Sajin Sir thank you for displaying that you are a no nonsense character. After all you are a Royalist by all means. You have made other Royalists proud.

Take this opportunity to reflect on how kamma works. If one with intention, cover up injustice or any other form of bad governance, one is creating that world for oneself from inside and outside. One cannot escape the currents of that world from inside and outside. When innocent human beings suffer from injustice, the likes of Chris were so swift to cover it up with clever language. There were thousands to applaud it, and Chris apparently enjoyed a good deal of ego too on social media. Yet, the creating forces of those lies continue to swirl in the back of his mind (like it would do in any other’s mind) bringing frustration and depression. Simple glass of whiskey is enough to crack open those swirls. Unfortunately for him, he let go of that in front of somebody of the same feather, that he toiled so hard to cover up. Bang! Classic demonstration of the dynamics of kamma.

As a plumber would not be able to do the job of an Architect – MR #s stupid appointments can only go to some limits – after that only the ones that have collected exp in such areas should be given to continue. Next possible one would be DAYAN DE SILVA. His being rather than a Jayathilaka will do even more harm to us, though DJ has some good sides too.

Sajin is one of the guardians of the King’s testicles (like Mervyn) and the King knows that they know some of his innermost secrets. In life, guardians of the testes enjoy untold privileges. So, NO harm will come to Sajin.

Native V,
There is more to this than meets the eye. Remember a few days ago
the photograph of Nonis with some near-naked ladies – presumably, of the easy virtue variety – were seen in these pages with the focus on a dancing Nonis. Obviously, the physical attack on Nonis is part of a well orchestrated pre-plot to get him out and place a favourite in St. James Square.
Naturally, MR will want him not to resign as it is a terrible embarrassment to the regime. If our HC in the most important diplomatic Capital in the world is subject to adipudi, this is even worse than what the Rajapakse regime is capable of. It is the very bottom. This is quintessential Kudu Mervin stuff.

This story reminds me how MR told fuming Khelia Rambukwela Don’t worry let me deal with it but you continue as a minister, following KR’s rage when he heard that his Daughter who was working in the UN office had been physically advanced by the Army Brigadier Shivendra De Silva the 2nd permanent rep working with Dr Palith Kuhuna.

Kevin / September 30, 2014
All this is pre-ordained and in our genes. Here is an extract from Robert Knox’s famous book about his time in captivity in the Kandyan Kingdom titled:
An Historical Relation Of The Island Ceylon
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.
He seems to be naturally disposed to Cruelty: For he sheds a great deal of blood, and gives no reason for it. His Cruelty appears both in the Tortures and Painful deaths he inflicts, and in the extent of his punishments, viz, upon whole Families for the miscarriage of one in them. For when the King is displeased with any, he does not alwayes command to kill them outright, but first to torment them, which is done by cutting and pulling away their flesh by Pincers, burning them with hot Irons clapped to them to make them confess of their Confederates; and this they do, to rid themselves of their Torments, confessing far more than ever they saw or knew. After their Confession, sometimes he commands to hang their two Hands about their Necks, and to make them eat their own flesh, and their own Mothers to eat of their own Children; and so to lead them thro the City in public view to terrifie all, unto the place of Execution, the The Dogs follow Prisoners to execution.Dogs following to eat them. For they are so accustomed to it, that they seeing a Prisoner led away, follow after. At the place of Execution, there are alwayes some sticking upon Poles, others hanging up in quarters upon Trees; besides, what lyes killed by Elephants on the ground, or by other ways. This place is alwayes in the greatest High-way, that all may see and stand in awe. For which end this is his constant practice.
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.

They (The Nadayas comprising 70) stayed in one of the most expensive hotels (Woldorf Astoria) in New York reserving two floors while Mara’s room alone costing US $24,000 per day while spending Tax Payer money lavishly for one whole week while our poor women slaving in ME to bring in foreign currency.
Finally what have they achieved…….Nothing. Even a Parrot can do a better job than these Kingfishers.
Now the London has become a No Go show for Rajapakses and soon many other towns and countries could follow.
Monkey do Monkey know. Jayawewa…. Namo Namo Matha. Keep fooling 70% villege uneducated Masses.

latest info to Dr. Nonis incident in NY says that he has demanded if he is to stay in office as the ambassador, Sajin Vaas must be punished.
He has taken the correct decision.
Dr. Nonis must stand by that demand for the punishment Sajin Vaas.
President Rajapakse may send thousand of angles to soften situation. But if he gives in he will loose his dignity and respect.
Further it will send the wrong signal to Vaas, that even after stooping to such a low level in public, he can get away with it.
If Nonis stands firm on his demand, he may have to leave the ambassador post in England sooner or later. So what ? what is he loosing ? Nothing !
But if Nonis gives in he loose every thing !!!! – His dignity , His self respect and respect for him form the society !
President Rajapakse must understand that Dr. Nonis’s breading and Sajin’s gutter breading are worlds apart !
President must decide who would be more useful for the country, an ambassador with a gentlemen breading or a uneducated minister with gutter breading !
