Hi Jayasuriya what about the Singhal colinisation of historical Tamil Districts. If you look at he a sri lankan map th elate forties fities all the names in tthe eastern provnce were Tamil. Now lots of these names have been changed to Sinhala and lots ancioent Tamil Hindu village names hav ebben also changed to Sadam Hussein Vilage . Husseen Nagaram etc by the Tamil Muslims ( withhte encouragement of Sri Lankan Govt. ) when Tamil come to Colombo ( the are alomst 40%) they dont change Singhalsed name or the history they buy property homes business etc with theior own funds. A citizen in countey has a right to live any where . A sinhalse in Jaffna a Tamil in Matara. But govenment deliberatley sending colonist to change to etcnic make up of the region and then change the names history etc is called genocide and etnic ecleansing . So the SriLankan govenmet does not wnat this to happen in Palestine but this if fine for Sri lnkan Tamils. And Mr . Jayasuriya ar eyou aware that the Kandyan rdala are largely descended from tamil Nayakas. And the Singhalese casted of Karawe Salagama Durawae Hune Berawaiya etc are of pure south Indian Tamil Originand only migrated tosri Lanka froem the 15 century onwards. These are the backbone th eextremist ultra nationalist parties like JVP and Jhu, and do not want Tmai lright to be granted . What a joke.The last Tamil/Singhalses King of Kandy signed the Kandyan convention with the British in Tamil and most of the so called Singhalese Kandyan chief
