Royal-Thomian annual hockey clash today

The sixth annual hockey encounter for the Orville Abeynaike Trophy between Royal and S. Thomas', will take place this evening at 4.30 p.m., at the Astro Turf Grounds, Reid Avenue, Colombo 7. The old boys match at 3.30 p.m. will precede the main match.
From its inaugural trophy match S. Thomas' have consecutively won all the encounters for the past five years.
But the Royalists have done well in recent years to narrow down the margin of defeat.
For the reason that in the year 2003 Royal lost by the odd 1 goal to Nil, and last year it lost 3 goals to 2. The difference being a solitary goal, and so a keen tussle will be on today on the Astro Turf. Royal College will be led by G. Dissanayake and S. Thomas' by D.N. Karunaratne.
In the old boys match the two captains are Royal - Manju Guanwardena and S. Thomas' - Mininda Morahela.
The line up for today's main match will be:
S. Thomas' from: D.N. Karunaratne (Capt.), T.P. Edirisinghe, G.N.M. Perera, R.N.A. Gunasekara, A.J.R.E. Isaac, L. Nathieeskumar, T.A. Cassim, A.Y. De Silva, M.N. Ranasinghe, M. Amjad, A.U.B. Kohona, Y. Suganthan.
Royal from: George Dissanayake (Capt.), Hashan Niroshana, Dhanushka Senaratne, Shalitha de Silva, Supun Kulathilaka, Ashane Peiris, Aloka Amarasiri, Suneth Karunathilokaratne, Nalaka Wijekoon, Praveen Buddhika, Marlon Senanayake, Shami Gajanayake.

JR, Premadasa betrayed the country- Pillayan

       Tamil issue should be addressed carefully...as stated in the article JR opposed to Chelvanayagam since the requests were not reasonable.True, if it was done the Tamils have more power than Sinhalese. Still i dont think that Pilleyan realizes that. 
       Also not a single Sinhalese family owns a piece of land in Jaffna. That is not because they dint lived there but since the "sudda" came up with a rule saying not to sell land to the Sinhalese (had to be a Tamil if some one intended of buying land in Jaffna). So all the Sinhalese people who lived there many years ago also sold their lands to Tamils. If Tamils are allowed to live in Wellawatte then same has to be done in Jaffna. Pilleyan needs to understand that as well. 
    All in all, I dont see a point in documenting rights.Sinhalese will be the first while others are treated equally.
       It is a fact that most people dont know much about the real history....this is a great explanation to all those who think that a War Victory is possible with out the help of the leader....even tho its a well proven fact some Colombo based idiots still cant admire MR's role during War era...best to read this article and see it your self...


Chief Minister- Eastern Province, Sivanesathurai Chandrakanthan better know as ‘Pillayan’, on Wednesday suggested that the powers of the provincial councils should be strengthened with more powers to the provinces.

Sivanesathurai Chandrakanthan addressing the Lessons Learnt & Reconciliation Commission
“Government should allow to fully exercise the powers vested in the provincial councils,” the Chief minister told the Lessons Learnt & Reconciliation Commission. “That is the only way we can win the hearts and minds of the people,” he said.
He said that, in the past, mistakes made by successive leaders had paved the way for the creation of armed groups. “This is an appropriate time for the government to take correct action to safeguard the rights of the citizens of this country, as the government currently has a two-thirds majority in Parliament,” he said.
“There are land issues in the Eastern Province. In the past, permits have been issued for lands in the Eastern Province, but due to the war situation, people fled the area. If those people return and demand their land, we will not be able to allocate the same land, as they have been already allocated to other persons.
“However, if persons in possession of the original deeds, return and demand their land, we can make arrangements to get back the land for them,” he said. “I am doing my best to solve the land issues in the area, and have visited some of the locations personally. I am working towards restoring ethnic harmony,” Mr. Chandrakanthan said.
Responding to a question about his reaction to Muslims chased away from the north, he said that Muslims were not chased from the east, but that he was willing to submit a full report on land issues to the commission.
“In Sampur, there are about 6,000 people living in camps. The coal power project backed by the Indians is coming up. We will benefit economically from the project, as the sea is deeper than in the Hambantota port area. But the people want to return to their original lands. I am trying to resettle them in other areas. However, if the people insist on returning to their old areas, it is only the President who can take a decision on the matter,” he said.
“In the 1990’s, the armed forces committed atrocities against the people. That made me join the LTTE. I have seen many bodies. In 1990, there was a group who killed people by slashing them with knives. Three of my classmates too were taken away. Some who worshipped seeking their release were shot. Therefore, the politicians who were responsible for these incidents should tender their apologies,” he added.
He was asked whether he shouldn’t tender an apology for the killing of 600 policemen in the east.
“As a former member of the LTTE, I can tender an apology. They were killed in June 1990, while I joined the LTTE in 1991. Therefore, it is not proper for me to tender an apology. The then leader Karuna (Vinayagamoorthy Muralitharan, currently a minister in the government) could tender his apology.
“Initially, S.J.V. Chelvanayagam formed the Thamil Arasu Katchchi, and signed a pact with former Prime Minister S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike. But J.R. Jayewardene who was in the opposition opposed it.
He claimed the Tamils will have more rights and therefore, the pact was not implemented. Thereafter, former Prime Minister Dudley Senanayake and Chelavanayagam signed another agreement. That too did not work out. Later, the District Development Councils were formed, and that too failed. The Tamil people never asked for separation, but opposition politicians gave distorted versions of the Tamil demands. As a result, there were atrocities against the Tamils. When the Tamil parties failed to fulfill their aspirations, armed Tamil groups sprang up. There were differences among the groups, which resulted in rival killings. Finally, the LTTE became the recognized group to achieve the Eelam goal”.
He said that, after former president Jaywardene formed the government, the provincial council system was introduced with the assistance of the Indians.
“The person who opposed the Bandaranaike-Chelvanayagam pact, eventually went beyond that and entered into an agreement with India to set up the provincial council system,” he said.
“However, then President Ranasinghe Premadasa opposed the provincial council system, and captured power. He provided the LTTE with weapons and sabotaged the functioning of the provincial councils.

“I feel that former leaders Jayawardene and Premadasa betrayed the country,” he added.
