Fire Storm Politics of Ceylon and Coronavirus



Fire Storm Politics of Ceylon and Coronavirus
   
Our politicians are not stupid but crafty in manipulations.
There is a Dhamma Pada verse that, where there is a man who is facing three mortalities (deaths) hanging (Hanging on to Power) on a faulty rope (slipping) gleefully sipping (sipping Power) honey drops.

Rajapaksa Clan epitomizes (with their clan of “Mahavada Monks”) the greed of the man hanging on to a rope and sipping honey (power).

They are pressuring the Election Commissioner and the Commission for early election which is a damn stupid IDEA.

1. Number one the coronavirus is under reported.
Just to hoodwink the masses blindfolded “that we are better than South Korea”.

2. Number two is the number of tests done are hopelessly inadequate.

3. Number three is this epidemic lasts more than a year and may be two to three years.

4. We are unable to practice what South Korea did in a short time (including temperature checking at the polling station)

5. This parliament was dissolved for political reasons and it could have gone well beyond 2020.

6. Neither President (by statute of the constitution)) nor Lame Duck Prime Minister (he has no say at all) can influence the decision making process.

7. “Deal Dasa’ is giving statutorily wrong interpretations.

8. The compromise is to context the decision making process in courts of law by the Election Commission. 

That would drag the election well beyond September.

In other word holding election is not life and death scenario.


9. lot of people including me (by default) will boycott the election by fear of Coronavirus.

10. It is playing politics with fire and life of the poor Punchi Sinho, the voter.

11. I hope the election commissioner would be mindful.

When the second wave of infection rampages the country, he will be used as the scapegoat by the winning party (never by a big margin).

12. Nobody should be given 2/3rd majority.

13. Working majority is the best to revitalize democracy.

14. Monks should be asked to stay (in other words quarantined fully) in temples and not to politicize Dhamma bringing Muslim and Tamil Hate factor (No Metta in their practice) to surface.

15. Beware Rajapaksa politics. 

They are wild tricksters.
Chetiya Rajuruvo (King) reborn.

King of Kossole outdone by a big margin.
