Jeyaraj Hello Friends, The overall situation in Sri Lanka at the present time is not something anyone truly concerned about the land described once as the Pearl of the Indian Ocean can be proud of or be happy about. The decadent political culture deteriorates gradually. The corruption, nepotism,crime, sycophancy,the rise of the mediocracy coupled with the decline in democracy and rule of law are all issues that compel those who feel and those who think to cry out for the beloved country.]]> http://dbsjeyaraj.com/dbsj/archives/1735/feed 161 http://dbsjeyaraj.com/dbsj/archives/1372 http://dbsjeyaraj.com/dbsj/archives/1372#comments Tue, 09 Feb 2010 04:17:50 +0000 Administrator http://dbsjeyaraj.com/dbsj/?p=1372 by D.B.S.

Jeyaraj January 26th 2010 is upon us! It's the Day of decision for Sri Lanka as it faces yet another election to either re-elect or elect the most powerful person in the Country. My thoughts and prayers with all Sri Lankans as they cast their votes in what is perhaps the most crucial, controversial and colourful presidential poll the Country has seen. I took some time off from the hustle and bustle of daily life to ponder over this election. We've had many flaws in conducting elections in the past. The present one has already demonstrated its deficiencies. The poll is certainly flawed. in Upparu-Trincomalee district, Jan 4, 2010 pic by: drs.
