Their stories are swallowed up by foreign NGOs and media and lending institutions as the IMF and World Bank.<br />When will the world ever learn that since independnece successive governments in power have made token gestures such as the rehabilitation they are carrying out and citing as examples a few hand-picked government cronies such as late Lakshman Kadirgamar and Douglas Devananda to show they are meting out justice and fairplay to Tamils.Pearl Thevanayagamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01147770369668187121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468613367801394261.post-91663401690978386702009-11-14T20:48:57.348+05:302009-11-14T20:48:57.348+05:30Please God help those innocent tamils who were joi...Please God help those innocent tamils who were joined to fight with out any other choice, and punish those people how are torturing them. I think the guilty party is not the singhala army, the Indian government, chinese, parkistan and many others. Hope one day all these governments will stop supporting singhala government or ....Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17858531485998372564noreply@blogger.com
