Sri Lanka: Shaggy Dog Recommendations
by Nilantha Ilangamuwa
( April 28, 2014, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Apparently, at least one so called "rational intellectual" the country produced thinks that by sending former army general, Sarath Fonseka, perhaps the best army commander in the world and the former President Chandrika Bandaranaike, to parliament that the regime will be able to justify their political vulgarism during the last decade. Perhaps he is seeing an in-depth relationship between the regime and Fonseka – Chandrika as being a panacea. In terms of political ridicule this is not only a shaggy-dog theory but also a dangerous evaluation of the reality of politics in this crucial time. This is not what we need in this hour of need.
