• Fundamental legacy of The Nuremberg and Tokyo Trials (1945-1948) January 24, 2020

• Swiss Embassy Saga: ball in President’s court to end selective prosecution January 26, 2020
  Ishanka Malsiri, a young archaeologist, recently published one of the most exhaustive scholarly treatise I’ve read in Sinhala or English from anyone in the social sciences in this country. The title was ‘dutugemunuge harda saakshiyata pilithurak [A response to Dutugemunu’s conscience].’ The title is drawn from what the content is all about, an examination of […]

• How far away are the faraway places? January 23, 2020
  ‘Faraway’ is a word that makes one think of the most beautiful places, destinations minimally touched by human beings. Idyllic. In a sense it tickles that part of our beings that is unhappy, disenchanted or even disgusted with the places we happen to inhabit, literally and metaphorically. It nudges the urge to ‘get away from it all.’Not everyone can get away […]

• Credibility gaps and complicities January 23, 2020
  Is Ranjan Ramanayake a hero or a villain? Depends on who you ask and depends on what you are talking about. If anything he has done or said causes embarrassment to someone or some political group then that person, his/her supporters or the party (as the case may be) would not cheer him. The relevant opponents might. There’s a lot of subjectivity in these Q […]

• The March of Folly 46 – Return to the East December 16, 2018
  And one always worried on the long stretches between checkpoints on the Amparai-Mahaoya road even after it had been opened to traffic. Memories of the Aranthalawa massacre, when 30 novice monks were dragged off a bus and killed, along with some older monks and laymen, always recurred as one passed the area, even though this had taken place before the Indo-La […]

• The March of Folly 45 – Ranil’s treacherous behaviour December 8, 2018
  .. understandable in someone who obviously has no qualms about the #SriLanka people being punished so he and his party can continue in clover. And given the enormity of the bond scam, it is sad that President Sirisena is parroting ..

• The March of Folly 44 – A disgraceful Attorney General November 23, 2018
  President Sirisena’s query from the Supreme Court as to whether he was entitled to a six year term was both sad and silly. It was sad because it suggested that he was anxious to go on for longer than the reduced period laid down in the 19th Amendment for which he had claimed great credit. […]

• The March of Folly 43 – Ranjith Atapattu November 17, 2018
  It was profoundly ironic that the funeral of Ranjith Atapattu took place the day after the appalling spectacle in Parliament. My attention was drawn to this by the former Secretary General, Nihal Seneviratne, the launch of whose book about better days was one of the last public events that Ranjith had attended. I saw Nihal […]

• 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.

  ... 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.
