Is the country being administered according to the Constitution or just ” certain parts of the Constitution” that suits the administrators and totally ignoring the other parts of the same Constitution.

As Shantha Fernando points out it is TOTALLY WRONG. The Administrators must either to act in accordance with the Constitution IN FULL or reject the Constitution IN FULL. If rejected in full, it means that the Administrators are administering the country without a MANDATE FROM THE PEOPLE.

Then it becomes an ILLEGAL ADMINISTRATION.

Then the country is not governed by a LEGALLY ELECTED GOVERNMENT.

Dil,
Like you, I am not yet convinced that we can let Dayan be the sole trustee of the task at hand, and i personally do not have any testimonies to confirm or challenge his honesty – therefore I make no judgements. I have noticed however that he has managed to keep his integrity in tact – even if that is by avoiding the contentious issues with somewhat silly excuses like "[finance and economics] is not my domain". It is not difficult to empathise though because he is compelled to self-censor his speech because his superiors do not have the maturity or self-assurance to be able to tolerate any form of criticism.
But as a private citizen, I appreciate the fact that Dayan has chosen to participate in an open forum such as this and face criticism (and even personal insults) when he can easily choose not to (but it's unlike him to avoid or back off from such).
Dil, please don’t feel any obligation to take my views under advise, but I am saving my angers and frustrations to be vented out on the day people like Dr Silva come online and personally see no point in venting it out on Dayan when that time could be better spend in engaging him in constructive conversations.

Thanks for the positive view point, will reflect on it. I confess I dont know much about the "Ambassador", he appears to be educated but then SWRD too was educated and he messed up big time. If the general view is that he is honest and capable and hopefully works with intergrity and passion for the country lets hope for the best. Just that from the writing & the video he appeared to be dodgy and reflecting on past photos and books published by him, kind of like"when I ope my lips let no dog bark" type, but I will consider your viewpoint and attempt to look at it from that perspective…..lets see and hopefully these academic types will mend fences and raise the bar, instead of basking in the adulation of high positions.

Dil,
Firstly, I am not here to defent anyone – least of all Dayan, who as well all know is quite capable of defending himself.
I wanted to make the point however, that all of us have our virtues and vicesand it is unfair to assume "guilt by association". The country and even the world at large needs the talents, knowledge and core competencies of educated, honest, capable men and women at work especially where those qualities are found lacking. Kadirgamar didn’t serve a completely honest and blemishless government, but he made the government that he served a bit more honest and was a counter weight to its blemishes. Men and women, who are better than the average, make the average a bit better – and often, such is the nature of progress.

I think it is evident to a person of average intelligence like me that the Ambassador has no qualms representing a corrupt government and being under the leadership of a very obviously corrupt foreign minister to begin with. I dont think you have to be an academic to figure that out just as much as you dont have to study music to appreciate music. Some people have this overwhelming desire to be in the limelight and for some even representing a repressive and corrupt government is the only route to it. Thats what it seems like to me.

" ….When and why did the change happen Mr Ambassador?" you ask.

"The change happened" at exactly the same time and for exactly the same reasons that it did for every single Tamil militant group other than the LTTE, especially those groups of the Left — namely the Indo-Lanka accord and the Provinicial Councils, on the one hand, and the butchery perpetrated by the LTTE, which had degenerated into a fascist force, on the other. This historic turning point has been explained by Siddharthan and Douglas Devananda, many times, in their interviews.

As for your question as to when my leftist instincts led me to support bourgeois revolution, well that was after I had read, as a teenage lad, Marx's Communist Manifesto, Lenin's Two Tactics and Mao's On New Democracy which taught me to support bourgeois revolution as the most progressive outcome when socialist revolution is no longer or not yet possible.
