Sri Lanka It's Happening

April 1, 2004

In this land of cowardly people the election commisioner is known to be an upright gentlemen with the courage to do what's right. Many times during his career he has had to stand up to presidents, prime ministers and their appologists.

Almost everyone would agree that the election commisioner is an unbiased and honourable gentlemen. Many of these people were alarmed to see the left alliance spokesman attack the commisioner for appointing a competent authority to oversee the state media mafia during the last three days of the campaign.

The state media has been grossly abused by all parties in power for the last quarter century. Yet what we are seeing this time around is probably as bad is it ever got. Thus the election commisioner was compelled to appoint a Competent Authority to stop this blatant abuse of public resources. Naturally the people who did the abuse are not too pleased.
