Victory Day : Lest We Forget

• The March of Folly 42 – Understanding why Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated: the bad ‘cronies’ August 31, 2018
  I looked last week at Nalaka Godahewa’s account of why Mahinda Rajapaksa lost, which he attributed to the excessive influence of eight people who ‘were not listening to the voices of the grassroots anymore’. Though an intelligent analysis of some aspects of the last years of the Rajapaksa administration, the article failed to distinguish between […]

• The March of Folly 41 – Understanding why Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated: the good ‘cronies’ August 28, 2018
  ‘Surrounded by cronies and not listening to those who mattered’ is the explanation Nalaka Godahewa gave in an article in Ceylon Today on why Mahinda Rajapaksa lost. I found it most interesting, with added value from the fact that Godahewa was close to the former President, and indeed came to his rescue when both Indrani […]

• The March of Folly 40 – The multiple betrayals of Maithripala Sirisena June 24, 2018
  It is true that many of the problems he now faces he brought on himself, but this was because of weakness, and because he relied on those who had no interest in ensuring he succeeded.

• The March of Folly 39 – Old wine in new bottles June 19, 2018
  ... had not been consulted in the planning, and were angry they could not put forward projects catering to their own agendas. An alternative view was that Basil wanted to control the funds himself and did not like the decentralized manner in which the project had been conceived.

• The March of Folly 38 – Marapana as compromise Prime Minister June 16, 2018
  I do not suppose the President has any illusions about Ranil’s shelf life being over, but obviously he is frightened to act, in case he finds himself without a parliamentary majority.

• The March of Folly 37 – Arbitrary detention unquestioned June 12, 2018
  I could find no reports of this in any newspaper, nor any worries by the usual run of human rights activists about what seems arbitrary detention.

• The March of Folly 36 – Corruption compounded June 11, 2018
  How true this was became clear as evidence emerged of his connections with individuals such as Gonawala Sunil and Kalu Lucky, who led demonstrations against Supreme Court judges who had found against the government in a fundamental rights case – which I recalled when Ranil’s cohorts decided to demonstrate against the bond commission.

• The March of Folly 35 – Restitution with transparency rather than revenge June 10, 2018
  Unfortunately, in the boost the government received from the President’s hasty dissolution of Parliament, that Report was forgotten, and hardly any media outlet publicized the horrendous tale it contained.

• The March of Folly 34 – The sad death of liberal Karu June 9, 2018
  The saddest casualty of the Yahapalanaya government determination to abandon all pretence of promoting democracy, let alone good governance, has been Karu Jayasuriya. I once thought of him as a decent man, weak but never doing dastardly deeds on his own. When he first started abusing the office of Speaker, I made excuses for him, […]

• The March of Folly 33 – German funds for the corrupt June 6, 2018
  ... the role of the FNS in funding what seems to be a plundering project. The reports of how Ravi misled the state banks to ensure further profits for Aloysius, and now the role of another of his principle associates, Shalila Moonasinghe, should make the Germans think, if indeed they are concerned about good governance.
