RE:This influx needs to be restrained !

Srilankan tamilians are not immigrant population but are aborginals, though they constitute a small group of immigrants and their further generations, who officially are citizens. Hence what srilankan government is upto is racism and not kicking somebody for claims in a foreign land. Think of all rights the immigrant indians/second generation indo-american population enjoys in USA or even in europe/asia pacific zone.
Second point is whenever there is war or natural calamity or struggle for survival, people keep fleeing from one place to another for better settlement or security. As far as refugees are concerned we need to be compassionate and feel like a global citizen rather than cry for one's tax money.
