what he all speak is genuine. He is trying to offer us gifts, sarees, flowers, earrings ornaments lavishly with lovely marriage promises - Because he sincerely worth this marriage. He is on little flattery on his bridegroom he wants to copulate greedily and ruthlessly in the late night. India is here, as it is threatened of Chinese presence and investments – that’s the genuine reason for this gentleman's’ visit. He is a good businessman and a good negotiator. Recently Obama was in India, to alley against economic competitions for their common rival – China. Personally Modi, and may be every Indian Prime minister did not want to include much, intervene much on our sourvergenity. But specially in the south part of India, politicians, people keep lot of political, business, emotional and cultural interests in Sri Lanka. This is the time India went to close ties with US to beat China in their close competition for economic dominance. I believe we must never be a decisive part in between the three powerful nations – US, India, China.
Seeing his speech I remembered the “කපුටා සහ කේජු කෑල්ල”. See below, I borrowed from his speech, he is very direct and determined of what he wants. We must not put our nation in the ruthless economic competition the three world giants run. We must make a independent nation, with peace and happiness for all. We could do that through giving good education – by providing niche expert human resources to the world. Going for mass production, going for industrialization is never the way for a small country like ours – due to various reasons like industrial pollution, stressed work, desperate values.
In Singapore – I have seen the fastest modern economic development resulted urbanization, good homes, buildings, industrialization, jobs and clean roads. But have the economics/materialistic development haven’t make the people actually happy?. Their original values are greatly compromised. Their teenagers/young girls generally prefers white males - night clubs and brothels. I have seen some whites walking in the streets putting their hands in to the pants of the young Singaporean girls - whom looked very young. For native Singaporeans young generation, their native language is second, the western values happen to be the best than to the true westerners. I never mean westerners are bad, We have probably the best people in the world in the western society. If something gone bad in the recent developed countries, are such that the local communities have attracted so much to the garbage of western civilization than to its inherent quality features.When these developing nations could not survive and protect their identity - they will be like in to history as like Native colonies in USA. Today we can see these abandoned native only practice or commit worst things in the society - drugs, women, liquor, aggression, hatred with uneducation at the fall of their values and believes. Singapore was a marshy tiny land of culprits,and bandits before the economic revival. So for Singapore island the present choice should still way much better than what it was before.
Ours is different. We have a rich culture, rich civilization, rich values and believes over multiple thousand years. We still have remains of a good culture and a good core value system, which majority protect and respect. Just that we got to improve it on corner cases. Our people are actually educated compared to majority Asian nations. Always bad minority are highlighted – and indeed our society also has started transforming negatively towards above social erosion. In my generation at office or at bus, we see emerging signs increasingly of social erosion. Statistics are rocketign devorce rates, straying rates etc. This corrosion is always sourced by bad economic pressure, and wrong values/believes which are socialized as innovative thrilling modern world to young generation - through our own education system and media. Society must not be greedy at short term economic benefits at the stake of the important qualities they inherently have. We must keep the unity of home, we must keep the chastity of our women, we must protect our cultural and religious values – they must not be compromised in terms of economic benefits. We don’t want nuclear power. We don’t want a land where we can’t drink our water due to cheap classless Investments. I l tell you one example – we are such foolish, those days when we go to those Ja-Ela’ Raddolugama area – we could drink the water from wells. We bathe in the well waters. Now my friend and his family live there can not. It is just 15 years for this pathetic transformation. This is a clear indication of unplanned economic development not managed properly – due to the rush and completion.
Read his promise ...
“India has become the fastest growing major economy in world. World see India as the new frontier of economic opportunity. But our neighbors should have the first claim on India. And I again repeat -the first claim in India is our neighbor to Sri lanka. I l be happy if India serve as a catalyst in the progress of our neighbors. In our region Sri Lanka has the potential to be - the our strongest economic partner. We will work with you. We address your concerns to boost trade and make it more balanced. India’s trade environment is becoming more and more open. SL should not fall behind others in these competitive world. That is why we should conclude and ambitions comprehensive economic partnership agreement. India can also be comprehend a natural source of investment for exports to India and elsewhere to world and to build your infrastructure. “
Development partnership – what does he want in return ? Every partnership is very dangerous when we don not actually in sync with our spirits and intentions. My gut feeling is we must never marry India. Neither China. Will keep some casual but compassionate friendship relationships with both. We must not take them to our bedrooms. Please leave the relationship in the living room.
China and India, both countries are now in a huge competition for us to offer various gift packages. We have to carefully observe them, and accept what we can afford. But we must never involve to their power struggle directly or indirectly at any stake. Unlike China Indian political landscape can change any time. Interests of south india and ours always clashes. You know what happen in Thimpu – Indira as the central government she had to intervened the clash between Thamilnadu and Sri Lanka. She had to be fair for both parties. What she did – She trained Tamil LTTE carders saying they are trained to have self defense. She took the Sri Lanka to negotiation table. Negotiations break – We lost thousands life. Same happen during the Wadamarachchi operation. You know about operation Operation Poomalai. I am never against india. I never think they have been expecting separation. But the central Indian government is always subject to various troughs and peaks. Realistically they always have to alter the strategies against this country based to various predictable and unpredictable waves in south part of their country. India is a friend, but never can be an intimate friend when they are closing us with economic expectations.
The cultural interests of Specially South India’s towards Sri Lanka is very high. Sri Lanka holds some emotional hostility to every Indian – it just that they don’t declare open. They may still think the land got Rawan Avatars. Majority Indians are emotional, irrational thinkers, never believe in rational decision making when it is there neighbor. You can observe this typical nature more or less from top to bottom. I still believe if we can actually reap the real harvest of Hambantota harbor – disregard the political shades, It is still good enough to make a regional service centre. India will not wish it success due to the competition. That’s why they want a channel call Setu Samudram – to stream the naval flow across their borders – between Sri Lanka and India. The proposed gas sites are also close in position to the same channel. Imagine if Hambantota could made the next Singapore harbor, - Why cant we transform that white elephant to an economic success to achieve the intended goals.
I never say we must not work together. But we must stay avoid the fight between three Jumbo powers. If we can develop the country slowly, gradually, progressively without polluting our water, without torturing our kids, without letting stray our women, - with good values and virtues, that is more than enough for me than the Competitive Economic Philosophy that Modi want to charge on us. India is still not with rich niche technology, rich quality assurance and high quality final product ensuring the end to end eco friendly. We have been working with them for long. Still majority investors attitudes towards quality is very low to an unacceptable level. True that they have world class Engineers, business men and talent. But when it is not managed by non Indian, I hardly have seen they inherently value those. We must not attract cheap investment from any nation – who comes to pollute the beautiful land with dumps and heaps of various industrial wastes.Still in India the poors are badly exploited, women are badly raped. They don't have a culture which respect women, and respect hygiene. I have seen many Indian Industries – We can not accept that careless pollution to happen in here. I can not agree Indian quality compromising and cost cutting strategies, they always compromise to an unacceptable deep level that is been repeated everywhere in the world as their management approach. We must go for niche strategies sir!. We can rely on our talent and people if the education and training is properly given.
So Dear respectable Modi, I still don't think you are an Asoka for us. Greatest warrior Asoka shared us with the most sacred spiritual gift filled with compassion and understanding for which in return he would never have expect anything but good will and peace for this community. This time you offer us materialistic gifts, promises and an accomplished wishlist which only spread greed, stress, dependency, no inner peace. Kindly don't make my poor country a helpless piece in an intense global political checker board for the happiness of rich guys you know.
