This is posted by my cellphone and I will have a swipe at every possible corner of Ceylonese politics
First of all, I pay my gratitude to the British for many antecedents in history, including how they treated the Estate Labour and finally, it was the BBC who highlighted the plight of the Estate sector.
1. Highest level of maternal death in the region.
2.Highest per capita consumption of alcohol.
3.Poor Education facilities.
4.Lowest paid sector in economy.
5. Poorest of living quarters.
None of which is resolved after 100 years of high output labour and an active labour union which succumbs to power politics in the deep south, if not Colombo.
I must state few words about Sir John Kotalawala as a prelude.
He saw that Labour imported from the India would be a political hotbed.
He drafted legislation even before the independence and he had seen to that the Indian people labour force was not given citizenship entitlement after six years of continued stay in Ceylon.
With the help of Estate Superintendents they were dished out pure alcohol that (this is carried to present day by developers who give hard core drugs to casual labour in Colombo) their daily pay is returned to the capital with outstanding arrears.
Now come to Thoppi Thotan and Thonda.
Unlike his grandfather he died of short illness purported to be heart attack, if not due to Coronavirus in relative young age.
He had become very lazy in Colombo, and just like his Sinhala counterparts who are absolutely lazy but inherently vociferous with racial rhetoric.
In addition he became a carrier of Coronavirus back to estates where this infection will spread like wild fire with the high level of funeral he was accorded.
With the downturn of economy which came with Coronavirus, there will be no market for Ceylon Tea while cost of production would go up and the yield per estate would come down drastically due to poor replanting strategy.
They will fall from pan (tea dust) to the fire while a particular Muslim strategist is adulterating the tea bought from the auction (rejected tea mixed with tea dust used for manure).
Now coming to Sirima who was a pest, just like her husband in Ceylon politics succumbed to pressure by Indian Indira who helped creating the LTTE with the help of Raw ably helped by Sweden and Canada.
I must refer to heroic Mr. Douglas Devananda who did not curry favour with LTTE and looked after his clan in Mannar diligently by looking at the problem holistically and survived many attempt at assassinations.
He was steadfast unlike Thonda.
I would wind up with a slur that Tamils will never be emancipated unless they shed the hereditary Caste System that is despised by Lord Buddha.
