Sri Lanka’s Consul General in Sydney Australia “Ambassador” Bandula Jayasekera has sided with protestors who disrupted yesterday’s meeting of missing peoples’ families in Maradana with the Colombo diplomatic community present.
Jayasekera who is an ardent Twitter activist and crusader for the Rajapaksa regime accused civil society movements of supporting “terrorist” families.
The Buddhist monks and protestors who stormed yesterday’s event at the Centre for Society and Religion at Deans Road also claimed that human rights activists Nimalka Fernando and disappearances activist Brito Fernando were gathering information from ‘maha veer’ families indicating that these NGO groups were supporting the LTTE cause. The protestors claimed that civil society organisations were involved in gathering information from LTTE families to hurt the Government of Sri Lanka and the military.
Jayasekera who styles himself as an activist against terrorism and uses the terrorist label on all kinds of dissenting voices on the social media network Twitter appears to echo the views of the protestors who disrupted yesterday’s event.
These pro-Government ‘protestors’ have disrupted civil society events and workshops for several months including two Transparency International Sri Lanka events and a Rights Now for Democracy Journalism training event last week.

I think he is not a diplomat but a so called deep low mad created by the government itself to keep his bad mouth shut!

@ Ahmed
The whole trouble with “AMBASSADOR” Bandula Jayasekera is hole trouble. He is confronted with problems especially when dealing with members of the opposite sex! Truth is stranger than fiction?

This wild boar left Toronto leaving a good name there- that was on his womanizing records. Those days, lanken women did not like visiting embassay – anyway this kind of men are th enature of rajpakshe regime.
They have high criminals to murderers to run their programs. This is the reason why Rajapakshe has failed to have lobbies in Europe today. They accuse the tamil diasphora for their crimes.. crimes that are being continued by the bunch of thugs in Raja regime.
We the sinhaalyas have come to fall as no times in the past. Poeple attack previous presidnts, but if anyone would see it clearly, therhe he will be surel of that the govt in power today are facists… they do whatever to fat the pockets of their men. No previous times we the nation faced this much of high corrupted events as it is the daily routine of the country today. Ballige puthas will never let people to raise their heads. THat is their nature. Every good coup could drive away this MR regime and liberate the nation from them. That can then lead to the success of the country.

Don’t blame others for what you have done. Why don’t you own up and return the wallet because you know he didn’t pay you the right amount for the service you rendered?

He is the best diplomat Sri Lanka has ever produced. He did his best at Lake House. He did wonders to concoct news for MaRa. He was operating from Temple Trees. He moved in all embassy parties with Rajpal Abeynayaka for free drinks. He worked with Sinhala Buddhist gangs in Australia and [Edited out]. What else you expect from this guy?

“What else you expect from this guy?” Let us pose this question to Haliyedda assuming she is still at the Sri Lanka Mission to United Nations in New York! I would prefer to respect CT’s comment policy.

A bit of DECORUM would serve him well.
But the real question should be ‘WHO appointed him to this position?’.
Therein lies the rub.

doesn’t the missing people families also include the families of the Sinhala slodiers missing in action?.
Are they also terrorist families?

Diplomacy and Tact, is not a strong point of this administration.
His views in a personal capacity is fine, as a Diplomat for the State, he falls short.

Enjoy your good times with MaRa power, When there is a regime change be prepared to do a Usain Bolt. Don’t lose your glasses.

Few of these people placed in various diplomatic missions overseas
are there not much to serve and address the concerns of the Sri Lankan people, but rather play the role of antagonist and to do the dirty work of MaRa

Bandula has to back the so called protesters because they are his camp fellows. Besides, he has to say and do things that please the king if he is to get a better place on the gravy train!

I know this ass kisser from school days. He is not fit to be a diplomat becasue he didn’t even do his A’Ls. He is the biggest ass kisser I know and he is in sydney only because he bet on the right horse in 2005. When we have DIP LOW MUTS like hime, do we need a Tamil diapora or the LTTE to destroy Sri Lanka
