Politics of Sri Lanka...

Well, Sri Lanka, which is known as ''pearl of the Indian ocean", had great leaders such as King Dutugamunu, King Pandukabhaya etc. The  development of the country  was in its' peak as it was in safe hands of wise rulers. That is the past status of Sri Lanka.

Today Sri Lanka is a social democratic country, a political system which combines the principles of socialism and the greater personal freedom of democracy. Via this type of political system, all the citizens  were given the power to influence their government with their sovereignty rights.

But, there are few questions to  be answered.
1.Does the citizens truly  have their  democratic rights?
2.Does the policies of  social democracy  protected?
2.Does this political system achieved the great targets we expect from it?

In my opinion non of the questions can't be answered "YES".

In order I have mentioned, 1st one, the citizens DON'T truly  have their democratic rights.
Back in 1980s when Mr.R.Premadasa was the president, thousands of people were killed accusing "attempting to rebel".  In 1990s when Mrs.Chandrika Bandararanayake was elected as the president, all the state people were relieved.

But despite the fact, she was accused after corruption and found guilty. Unfortunately, by the time, her ruling period was over and imagine the amount of money she must have wasted. When Mr. Mahinda Rajapakshe elected as the next president, and he proved the fact that he is a good leader by ending the war of thirty years.

But, the bunch of  fools around him has let him down. Specially the education minister and the health minister.Exam system was a total mess in last year.Several school girls were dead because of bad vaccination.Insects were found in medicines.

So how can we say that people have their democratic rights.?

Concentrating on the other two questions, I must admit that I don't have a positive feeling about it. IF the policies of social democracy was protected, SF (Sarath Fonseka), presidential Candidate of the opposition,can't be in jail after the election.

But, the worst thing is, If the people wanted MR to go home,they are helpless as they have no other option. Because, opposition leader, Ranil Wickramasinghe, has proved the country that he couldn't even control his mouth!!!



So, the whole point of this article is, Democracy of Sri Lanka hasn't achieved its' targets and the politicians of Sri Lanka is USELESS.If the state people wanted our country developed, I must suggest that, they must be very careful when  choosing a leader......
