Perhaps this article would have been better served if this paragraph was left out altogether. To say you will not make sexist remarks and then go ahead and make them anyway is disingenuous.

I believe Hirunika is more knowledgeble than Duminda, Namal or any other politicians today. Just because she was presented by a photo in which Mervin and other politicians were also present means not that she may have changed her intentions in terms waiting to a fair judgement of the investigations that is being carried out on her father´s murder case. She reveals this to the press lately, that she would not want to change her party for which his father and other have worked for so long.

However, I am surprised, why Dr. Jayathialaka seems to be not uttering a single word in terms of her father´s murder case – in which Duminda was the core accused but remains to be not cooperated yet.

Editor : i am sure that every religion needs to be questioned not only buddhism practiced by the sinhalese.

This young woman is in her mid-20s, and anyone of that age, (especially someone who lost her father in a deadly shooting) is entitled to some unclarity and inconsistency in her search.

Einstein was in his twenties when he discovered relativity. Newton was in his early twenties when he did most of his significant work. More to the point, I’m 23, a year younger than her, and I know what’s going on. I bet Hirunika knows it too. There’s is no unclarity or inconsistency in her search. Her search is for fame and power, and she knows what she’s doing.

Hirunika is pretty much illiterate when it comes to political philosophy, economics and everything that actually matters. If you’ve learnt some of those things, and if you are a certain kind of person (kind of person Hirunika is not), you will truly try to make the world a better place.

But she knows what she’s doing. She wants fame and power, and her options are,

1. Get closer to Mahinda, become powerful, forget about taking revenge from Duminda
2. Get closer to Ranil, lose everything, forget about taking revenge from Duminda

I’d say that given her objective of having more fame and power, the first one is the most rational thing to do.

P.S. I won’t be surprised if one day she decided to marry Duminda.

My apology to you, no intention to hurt Lord Buddha and his teachings.

I have the greatest respect for Buddhism.
My talking about the Sinhala Buddhist’s means, the People of Sri Lanka who preach Buddhism, but far, far away from practicing it.

Certainly there are exceptions, my late Mother in Law was one.
Would it have been better if I said,and referred to the Sinhala man who has embraced Buddhism?.
There are American, British, German, Japanese, Thai and Indian Buddhist’s, they don’t fall into the category, I am referring to.
So you see I was not referring to Buddhism itself, rather the Majority in Sri Lanka, who happen to be Sinhala speaking, preaching Buddhism.

Unfortunately in this Country, the Ruling Politicians draw reference to Buddhism all the time, using Buddhism to stay in power amidst all the conceivable corruption, are responsible for my statement.

However, I apologize and regret, that you have quite naturally, taken offence at my statement, but now I hope your understand my inference.

But please remember, it is the Sinhala speaking people who are preaching Buddhism who have elected this Sinhala Speaking Politicians who also preaching Buddhism to run this Country, and I am sure you know the end result we are all facing.

I AGREE THAT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BUDDHISM.

Duminda Silva has forgotten that he is an MP and his parents after the shooting. Sri Lanka has Gone for d–s. D–s are in the parliament.

BL Premachandra was with the government, protecting it’s every step until he was killed. Only complaint he apparently would have had was that he was not treated well. We can only assume that Hirunika and other family members were in the same boat. See now Hema Kumara is calling for a common opposition. There can be hundreds and thousands of people who are complaining about this government once they were victimized one way or the other.
It’s high time that reasonable citizens of this country stop listening to this type of people. It’s not going to do any good to change this situation. Those who are with the government will start thinking seriously only when they realize that nobody will listen to them one day when they start complaining one day.

But will our voters ever be that serious? I really don’t think so.
