This post should have come few days back. But, I was having problems hooking up to the internet. Anyway, it’s late better than never. So, here goes…
Getting to the point, all I can say is “Whoopee!!! Good Riddance for bad rubbish!!!”. The monster that brought chaos to the country and the region is finally gone to rot in hell! It is not only for the thousands of lives he killed, thousands of people he made homeless, thousands of children who were made fatherless or motherless or the millions of dollars worth of damages he did to the country. It is also because of the mess up he did to the mindset of the entire world bringing disgrace to the country and the Tamil community which he claimed to be the soul representative of. Finally, the barbarian who was supposed to be invincible was eliminated and the millions of sighs of relief shed irrespective of the nationality, religion and political party, and the thousands of national flags which were hoisted in all corners of the country vouched for the true feeling of Independence V2.0 of the country.
With all the high spirits about the elimination of the ruthless LTTE, the leadership and courage shown by His Excellency the President was truly incredible. A million ‘thank you’s for you sir for being a true Sri Lankan and showing the so called International Community that we can stand tall as one nation. Furthermore, I am ever grateful to the Secretary of Defence and Commanders of all forces for the amazing dedication they put in to bring the country under one flag. Most importantly, I bow down to all the soldiers in the line of duty not only because of the valiant efforts made by them to get rid of the LTTE, but also because of the professionalism and care shown in rescuing the displaced people. Hats off for all of you!!!
So, with the path cleared, what do we have ahead of us? It is nothing else but sheer development, and show the world that a phoenix is in the rising! It is time for all the nationalities… umm... let me rephrase. It is time for all ‘Sri Lankans’ to get together and march forward for the sustainable development of the country with harmonious co-existence across diversities. Who knows, we might start off beating Singapore! It is not impossible! :)
Bravo mother Sri Lanka!!!
PS : I was trying to focus only on the positive side of this, but anyway as a final note to all those national and international scoundrels who tried to spoil our nation I’d like to say: “I don't consider you all vultures. I consider you something a vulture would love to eat.!!!!”
