... Presidential Election in Sri Lanka

 

Certainly not all the Sri Lankans had been too pleased with his policy over the past few years with a steep economic decline, many disappearances, the situation of media, civil rights, environment and so on.

But still, the Sri Lankans sound grateful to Mahinda Mama, as they love to call him at times because he had managed to finish the war by having teamed up with China, from where had had received cash, weapons and strategic military experts while the West had dropped the Island completely due to a low profile in terms of human rights and media freedom.

 

Now the Sri Lankans have their first free election Nationwide without LTTE guns pointing at the Tamil voters and it will be interesting to see, where the future for Sri Lanka will be.

 

The UNP has tried to harden their profile by having added former General Sarath Fonseka to the team of regular opponent Ranil and a fierce fight was seen which had even included assaults on the man who had led the Sri Lankan army over many years to the final victory.

A young democracy is trying to shake off the wounds and hardship of a long and bloody civil and hopes are with the Sri Lankan people for a brighter and much more safer future.
