A.”miraculously achieved triumph would be protected”
i.”triumph” is protected by excessive militarisation and by giving excessive power to the military
ii. militarisation of the North began in 1958. Mrs Bandaranaike began to intensify it in 1961 and further by sending Neville Jayaweera as GA in 1963(according to his memoirs published in TheIsland in 2008) though he didn’t meet the expectations and on the contrary began to be sympathetic towards the Tamils.
B.”perpetual peace and harmony” can be acieved easily by adopting the Buddhist precepts genuinely or by avoiding to violate the International Law/UN Charter.

I wouldnt touch a flag with a lion thrust with a sword by inhuman humans – inhuman to make a living creature hold a reprimanding sword. Reprimanding whom?
I’d object to it if any coutry has such a flag. I ddon’t know why WWF/environmentalists/nature-lovers/religionists haven’t objected to it. It shouldn’t be surprising that i.we’ve been having a series of racial riots and oppression of ethnic minorities and ii.the singing of the national anthem in Sinhala at afunction in the North unreported in govt websites.
My only appeal to the constitution-makers is to have a flag for peace – we’ve had a flag of violence for 68yrs.

Therefore, I have no objection to singing the Anthem in neither Tamil nor English , because we were under control and managed for centuries by English , we still have English railways ,education, language , brown English men and tea ,coconut and rubber etc , so why can’t we sing the anthem in English too. I personally cannot see any sign of progress of integration among us although the radical steps have taken by new regime to build the eternal peace bridge .
It is evidently indicated from the attitude of that Vijayakala and chief minister wingnsswaran . If the efforts were productive , there shouldn’t be a limbo . Presumably credible signs of improvements should have prevailed by now for long lasting peace and unity . But as the leaders are bragging about there aren’t much tangible changes yet to see except largely visible colossal infrastructures that were built by former president .
However , it is not that we as ordinary people responsible for the whole mess that country suffered for decades , because those who the distinguished old professors from all races made decisions to drive the country into this level time to time , I can see even today that distinguished old professors in the country have emphasised what is right to strengthen the harmony and prosperity today , but I am pretty sure , they will not alive here to be part of saving country when it needs to sacrifice by ten of thousand lives for their blunders .This is the bitter reality while considering the situation , that we have acrimoniously experienced in the past . Yet ,I cannot pessimistic the same thing will happen again , but as a precautionary ,it could be a grand consolation to all Sri Lankans if the miraculously achieved triumph would be protected for a perpetual peace and harmony
