Sri Lanka on the way forward ?

I am overjoyed with excitement with the news that hopefully the whole country will be free of terrorism within a matter of few weeks. Terrorism is the single biggest reason that left our country stranded among the poorest of nations in the world.

All around the world, there are many professionals who were born and educated in this island nation, but now living in foreign countries after giving up hope for a better future for our mother land. But once this lunacy of terrorism is over, I guess we would have an environment where all the Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims and the rest can live in harmony. Every where I look in our country, and every industry that I think about, I can only see the potential for investments and development. I always imagine a future where all of our engineers, researchers and scientists return to Sri Lanka and start building the future Sri Lanka as one country, one nation and one people.

In the mean time, I wish that our tamil brothers and sisters would understand the reality of what is actually going on. Please open your eyes, don't be shadowed by the propaganda of the terrorists. There is nothing called a 'good terrorist' and a 'bad terrorist'. Realize that there is a difference between a true 'freedom fighter' and a 'terrorist'. Listen to the true voices of the innocent people who are been taken hostage by the ruthless organization.

If anyone feel that the Sri Lankan government can't be trusted, why not listen to the international media and international representatives. Check out the following videos.
