If I could only share one lesson with the world, it would be this. Procrastination is an emotional problem. You don’t put things off because you’re lazy, unmotivated, or lack discipline.
• Work hard. • What others think of you is none of your business. • It's OK not to have all the answers. • Experiment, Fail, Learn and Repeat. • Knowledge comes from experience. • Imagination is important. • Do what interests you the most. • Stay curious.

Umm no, it’s not the job of the oppressed to carry the burden of educating the Sinhala masses who were well aware of the systemic discrimination and genocide, and actively celebrated or condoned it. This statement is placing blame on victims.

#RepealPTA Lawyers at the Mirihana Police Station have been informed by the police that they are going to detain arrested persons under the #PTA. Yet another eg of the human rights deficient nature of #PTA that allows it to be abused by state at its whims. @EU_in_Sri_Lanka
Where do you even begin with the malignant shamelessness of this? Force out a community from their homeland with discrimination and violence in one generation, vilify them in the next generation, now expect them to forget everything and come to rescue you from your incompetence?

My dispatch from Jaffna and Batticaloa about the ongoing abuses, abductions and torture in Sri Lanka, 13 years after the civil war ended. Tamils but also Muslims have been targeted. We speak exclusively to @Justice4Hejaaz after his 22 months in detention theguardian.com/world/2022/mar…

Such license schemes to import vehicles and duty-free permits for vehicles should not exist. Both these forms of licenses and permits promote corruption parliament.lk/news-en/view/4…
@rangaba My experience regarding this EV permit: When I was is SL I met my bank manager and he told me that I’m eligible for this. Gave me a contact num. talked to a person on HQ of bank. That person gave me another phone number to talk to, it was a min office number a person explained
May be good to find out thru which company most of the vehicles were imported. U will see a pattern.
