We witnessed an opportunity to introduce something different, interesting and beyond traditional classified advertising, to the local market. The Harimila.lk interface is easy-to-use and convenient for both sellers and buyers. We are optimistic about the Sri Lankan market and we want to be a part of the growth that the country is experiencing.”</p>FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-74302438118425498222020-12-10T04:29:00.006-08:002020-12-10T09:05:08.090-08:00How did Sri Lanka make 'Ikman' a 1800 million rupees company?<p><span></span></p><a name='more'></a><div><br /></div><ul style="text-align: left;"><h3></h3><h4><ul><li><b><span style="color: #800180;">Employee base = 400 employees</span></b></li></ul><ul><li><b><span style="color: #800180;">Monthly Payroll = 10 - 20 million rupees</span></b></li></ul><ul><li><b><span style="color: #800180;">Revenue = 1800 million rupees</span></b></li></ul><ul><li><b><span style="color: #800180;">Ownership = <span style="background-color: white; font-family: charter, Georgia, Cambria, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; letter-spacing: -0.063px;">Swedish</span></span></b></li></ul></h4></ul><div><span style="color: #292929; font-family: charter, Georgia, Cambria, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: -0.063px;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #292929; font-family: charter, Georgia, Cambria, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><span><!--more--></span></span></div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Ikman.lk (meaning, roughly, fast) is a classifieds site that took over the Sri Lankan online market within few years.

This is what they did in Sri Lanka too. As a result of this, they’ve reached the top rank in online classifieds in Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Ghana despite relatively old technology they used. In simple technical view, what you see there is a 80% static web site with very little modern interactive features. But with the support of their creative marketing campaign they know how to place that as best solution for all our classified ads needs. </span></div></span><p></p><p style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />If you carefully access the way their business is growing, you will understand that they are having a long term business objective to capture Indian Market. In my analysis, I looked at the places they expands. They are evidently circling around BIG India. I mean despite the profit they make from Sri Lanka and from other countries, it is my assumption that they are aiming at India as their next growth target. We all know how big that market is, that is where the leaders in this space operate focusing to gain higher revenue, around 200 million dollars (~40, 000 million rupees) per year.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc01TZb04NuB5rdZTV7gQKT9TSjmkB9kBc9OPeJSm4rxKbvxMQfE7_PzKRAnjM97XN7sq1aOK0jFvEDs2Ve2WLevLwwRzrh8BiyrIKU0nVLg3btkUR0kiiFByJcN1Ryv6bXKPVAkTzqo_V/s1506/Screenshot+2020-12-10+at+10.07.52+PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="940" data-original-width="1506" height="294" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc01TZb04NuB5rdZTV7gQKT9TSjmkB9kBc9OPeJSm4rxKbvxMQfE7_PzKRAnjM97XN7sq1aOK0jFvEDs2Ve2WLevLwwRzrh8BiyrIKU0nVLg3btkUR0kiiFByJcN1Ryv6bXKPVAkTzqo_V/w470-h294/Screenshot+2020-12-10+at+10.07.52+PM.png" width="470" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><h2 style="clear: both;"><u>Profit Sharing</u></h2><span><!--more--></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">As of now the entire company is own by Saltside Technologies, unfortunately most of the money they make out of advertisement moves out from Sri Lanka.

පසුකාලීනව, අවාසනාවකට මෙන්, එලෙස ජොතිස්යයට ගැරහීමට පුරුදු කරනු ලැබූ එම ජාතීන්ම අපව යටපත් කළහ. ඒසමගම ඔවුනගේ මතවාදයන්ද ජොතිස්ය ආදී මාහැඟි ඉපැරණි විද්යාවන් සුරැකිව තිබු ලොව නැගෙන හිර දිසාව පුරා පැතිර ගියේය. අපගේ පොතපත ඔවුන් විසින් ගිනිබත් කලෝය. උගතුන් මරා දැමුහ. අනිකදු නොව බුදු දහමේ පදනමද දෙදරා හැරියේය. බුදු කෙනෙකුන් කිසිදා ලොව පහල නොවුණි යැයිද, බුදුන් මනක්කල්පිත චරිත්යකෙයිද කීහ. නමුත් පසුව බුදු දහමේ ශක්තිමත් පදනම් ඔවුන් පරයා නැගුනද ජෝතිස්යට එසේ කල නොහැකි විය. එය සැකයට භාජනය විය, එහි විද්යාත්මක බව ප්රශ්න කරණ ලදී. නමුත් අවාසනාවකට ලොව නැගෙනහිර විසු උගතුන් ජොතිස්ය වෙනුවෙන් පෙනී නොසිටියහ. ජොතිස්ය නමැති මාහැඟි විද්යාව තවදුරටත් පෙරලෙස නොබැබිලිනි. එය ඉහල සමාජය තුලින් නැති කරන ලදී. ගම්වල විසු නුගත් ජනයාගේ අවශ්යතාවයට පමණක් එය ගම්වලම සිටි යම්තම් ජොතිස්ය දත් නුගතුන් අතට පත්වී රැකුණි. ඒ ලෙසම අපරට විසු අංගන් ශිල්පීනට සිධු වූ ගහැට ගැන වෙනමම කතා කලයුතුය.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">ජෝතිසය අතීතයේ සැබැවින්ම බුද්ධිමත් මිනුසුන් භාවිතා කලාද?</span><br />
<br />
එසේය, අතීතයේ විසු රෝම, ග්රීක, ඊජිප්තියානු සහ ආසියානු ජෝතිස්යඥයන් සියලුම දෙනා ගණිතඥයන්, තාරකා විද්යාඥයන් අදීකොට ඇති එම සමාජවල සිටි බුද්ධිමත්ම අය වුහ. ඔවුන් වරෙක ජීවක වෙදුන් වුහ, වරෙක ගුරුවරු වුහ තවත් වරෙක වස්තු නිර්මාණ ශිල්පීන් වුහ. ඔවුන් අද ඔබ ලොව දකිනා මහා ඉදිකිරීම් වලට නායකත්වය දුණි. රජවරුනට රටේ අනාගතය ගැන අනාවැකි කියනා ලදී, බෙහෙත් හේත් කරණ ලදී. නිවැරදිවම කියනවානම් ඔවුන්ගෙ දැනුම මතින් අද ලෝකය නිපදවුණු ලැබිණි. ඉජිප්තියානු පිරමීඩ දෙස බලමින් පුදුම වෙන ගමන්ම ජෝතිස්යට ගරහයි. අපට කුමක් සිදුවී ද යයි මම නොදනිමි. නමුත් කිසියම් වරදක් සිදුව ඇති බව නම් ස්ථිරය.<br />

නමුත් අද ලෝකය මුළුමනින් ආගමික උවමනා මත කණපිට හරවා ඇත. තොරතුරු විකුර්ති අර ඇත, ඉතිහාසයන් සම්පුර්ණයෙන්ම වලලා දමා ඇත. මෙම මාහැඟී විද්යාවද තම ඉරණම් ගමනේ යවා නැතිද? ඔබම සිතා බලන්න..<br />

ඉරිදා සිංහලයෙන් හිරු නම් ග්රලෝකයට අධිපති වන දවසයි. මෙය ජෝතිස්යානුකුලවම කර අති නම් කිරීමකී. පුදුම සහගත ලෙස එන්ග්ලිෂ් බසට අනුවද මෙම අදහස අනුවම යමින් එම දිනය සන්ඩේ නොහොත් Sunday - the day belongs to the planet sun, ලෙස නම් කර නැතිද? මෙම නියමය සිංහල දින නාම තුල නොකඩා මුළු සතියේ දවස් හත තුලම දැකිය හැකි උවද. In English you see this same pattern is preserved only in three days of the week and that is Saturday (Saturn's day), Sunday (Sun's day) and then Monday (Moon's day). මෙම දිනාධිපති ක්රමයට යොදා ඇති නම් තවත් බොහෝ රටවල දින නාම සමග හොදින් ගැලපේ. චීන ආදී රටවල මෙලෙස දිනාදිපති ග්රහයාට අනුව දින නාමය තබා නොතිබුණද වෙනත් ජොතිස්ය මුලදර්ම භාවිතා කර එය සිදුකර ඇත.<br />

මහා ඇලෙක්සැන්ඩර් රජුගේ ගුරු වූ ප්ලේටෝ පඬිතුමා මහා විද්වතෙකි, නමුත් ඔහුද ඇලෙක්සැන්ඩර් රජුට ලොව පැතලි තැටියක් ලෙස උගැන්විය. තවද ලොව නැගෙන හිර දිග ආක්රමණය නොකරන ලෙසද, එ දිග ඔහුව ගිල දමාවි යයි ද උගැන්වීය. නමුත් එම රජු ඔහු උගත් එම තැටියේ කෙලවර සොයමින් ලොව නැගෙන හිර දිග ආක්රමණය කර ඉන්දියාව තෙක් පැමිණියේය. ලොව තැටියක් නොවන බව තේරුම් ගැනීම කෙසේ වෙතත් නෙගෙනහිර දිසාව ඔහුව ගිල ගත් බව නම් සැබෑය. ඔහු ආපසු සිය රටට ගියේ ආසියානුවෙකු ලෙසයි.<br />
ප්ලේටෝ පඬිතුමා ලොව තැටියක් ලෙස කල උගැන්වීම ජෝතිස්යට අනුව වැරදි වෙයි. එම පඬිතුමා ජොතිස්ය පිලිබඳ හසල දැනුම ඇති අයෙකු බව සැබෑය, නමුත් එහි පදනම පිළිබද කිසි හසරක් නොදත් බව නවීන විද්යාව දන්නා අපට දැන් පැහදිලිය. ලොව තැටියක් නොවන බව අපි දනිමු. නමුත් දුරේක්ෂ, චන්ද්රිකා නොමැති විශ්ව ගවේෂණ නොකළ එම යුගයේ ඔහු කෙසේ එය දැන ගන්නද? මා සිතනා ආකාරයට මෙය ඔහුගේ දැනුමේ පැවතී සිදුරකි.<br />
<br />
තවද ලොව ගෝලාකාර බව නොදැන මුල් යුගයේ ඉර්ෂිවරුනට ජොතිස්ය නිර්මාණය කල නොහැක. ඔවූන් ලොව ගෝලාකාර බව දැනසිටියා නිසැකය. එසේ නොමැතිව මුළු විශ්වයම තම අත්ලේ තබා හොඳින් බලමින් කල දෙයක් ලෙස තාරක විද්යාව සමග ජොතිස්ය ගැලපෙන්නේ කෙසේද? ප්ලේටෝ ලෙසම තම දැනුමේ සිදුරු නිසා පඬිවරු කියූ වැරදි කියුම් ඉතිහාසය පුරා ඇත. එවා බුධිමත්ව විමසා බලා තීරණය කල යුතුය. මෙවැනි දේ, ඉතිහාසයේ යම් කාල පරිච්චේදය කදී ජොතිස්ය පදනම පිලිබඳ දැනුම මැකී ගියා දෝ හෝයි සිතිමට පොලඹවයි. අනාවැකි කීමට උවනා භාවිත දැනුම නිතර නිතර පාවිච්චි කල නිසාම ඉතිරි ඌවා විය යුතුය. මුලික පදනම් සිද්ධාන්ත වල තිබු සංකීර්ණ බව, ඒවා නිතර භාවිතා කිරීමට නොලැබීම, එකල ලිවීමේ සහ සන්නිවේදනයේ තිබු දුර්වලතා යනාදිය මෙවැනි සිද්ධාන්ත කෙමෙන් අමතක වී යාමට හේතු වුවා වියුතුය.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">අහස දෙස බලා සිට පුරාතණයන් ජොතිස්ය නිර්මාණය කලාද?</span><br />
<br />
අහස දෙස බලා සිට තරු අදුන ගෙන ඉන් පසුව ජොතිස්ය නිපදවූයේ යයි කියනා කියුම මම නිතර අසා ඇත. එවා අනුවණ ජොතිස්ය පිළිබද හසරක් නොදත් නුගත් අයගේ කතාය. එසේ කල හැකිදැයි බැලීමට මම ඔබට කිසියම් පරීක්ෂණයකට ඇරයුම් කරමි. ඔබ ජොතිස්ය හෝ තාරකා විද්යාව නොදන්නා අයෙකු නම්, තරු පිරි අහසක ජොතිස්යයෙදී භාවිතා කරනා තරු රාශි පහක් හෝ හයක් අඳුනා ගැනීමට උත්සාහ කරන්න. ඔබට ඒ සඳහා ඔබගේ මුළු ජීවිත කාලයම උත්සාහ කලද නොහැකි යයි මම කියමි. තාරකා විද්යාව, ගණිතය උගත් නොයෙක් උපකරණ සහිත නවීන විද්යාවෙන්ද සන්නද්ද අපටද තරු පිරි අහස ඉතා සංකීර්ණ, විස්ලෙෂනයට අපහසු එකකි. ජොතිස්ය හොඳින් දන්නා අය මෙය දනියි. එසේ තිබියදී වසර 25000 කට පෙර ග්රහයන් ගැන ඔවුන් කෙසේ දැන ගත්තාද? සෞරක්ග්රහ මඩුල්ල සමග මුළු ශීරපතයම අතට ගෙන ගණයන් කරමින් කල වැඩක්දැයි මට වරකේ සිතේ.<br />

එපමනකුදු නොව එක එක ග්රහයා පෘතුවියට සාපේක්ෂකව ගමන් කරනා වේගය, සාපෙක්ෂතා වාදයේ පිය වන අයින්ස්ටඉන් (Albert Einstine) ඉපදීමට තබා ඉපදීමේ සලකුණක් වත් නොමැති යුගයක, ඉතා නිවැරදිව (සාපේෂ ප්රවේග මුලදර්ම යොදා) දැන භාවිතා කර තිබෙන්නේ කෙසේද? ඒවා වගු ගත කර දියුණු යයි කියනා අපටද භාවිතා කල හැකි ලෙස සකසා තිබෙන්නේ කෙසේද? මෙය රාත්රී අහස දෙස බලා කල හැකි යයි යමකු කියනවා නම් ඔහු මෝඩයෙකු නොවන්නේද? ඇත්තෙන්ම කියනවානම් එසේ කියනා අය ජොතිස්ය විවෘර්ත මනසින් යුතුව උගත්තේ නම් එසේ කියනවා තබා සිතන්නේ ද නොමැත.<br />

මා කලින් සඳහන් කල නාම ලැයිස්තුවේ ලක්දිව කුරුණෑගල යුගයේ විසු අනවම ධර්ශී සංග රාජ මා හිමිද සිටියි. උන්වහන්සේ විසින් රචිත “දයිවඥ කාමදෙනුව” නම් අගනා ජොතිස්ය පුස්තකයක් වෙයි. එහි මුල්පිටු ගණනාවක්ම යොදා පෘතුවියට සාපේක්ෂව හිරු ආදී කොට ඇති ග්රහයන්ගේ සාපේක්ෂ ප්රවේග ගණනය කරණ සංකීර්ණ ගණිත සමීකරණ පැහැදිලි කර ඇත. මා එය තේරුම් ගැනීමට අසමත් වීමි. නමුත් අද තාරක විද්යාවට අනුව කර ඇති ගණනයන් සහ පෙර ජොතිස්ය නිර්මාණයේදී කල වගු භාවිතා කර කරණ ගණනයන් සංසන්දනය කලෙමි. ඒවා පුදුම සහගත ලෙස සමාන විය. එය ජොතිස්ය තව තවත්ඉගෙන ගැනීමට මා පොළඹවන ලදී.<br />
<br />
නසා ආයතනයේ විද්යාඥයන් වසර පසළොසක් පමණ පර්යේෂණ කර නිපදවා ඇති සංකීර්ණ පරිගණක අල්ගොරිතමයක් මා හට හමුවිය. එමගින් අද වනවිට හඳුනාගෙන ඇති සියලුම අකාශගත වස්තුන්ගේ පිහිටීම් සහ ගමන් මාර්ග මෘදුකාංග ගත කර ඇත. ඔබ කිසියම් දිනයක් වෙලාවක් දුන්විට එදින එම වෙලාවේ අහස සිතියම් ගත කරදීමට මෙම මෘදුකාංගය සමත් වෙයි. එම සිතියම්ගත කරනු ලබන අහස සමග පුරාතනයන් නිපදු ජොතිස්ය වගු බාවිතා කර ගණනය කල අහස් සිත්යම් සංසන්දනය කලෙමි. ඔබ පුදුම නොවන්න, පෙර කියූ ලෙසම අහස් සිතියම් නිවැරදිව සමාන වුනු බව සහතික කරමි.<br />

එසේ හෙයින් ජොතිස්ය නම් මේ මාහැඟි සාස්ත්රය අතීතයේ විසු මහා බුධිමතුන් පරිසක් විසින් සොයා ලොව එහි පිහිටවා දායාද කලා විය යුතු යයි සිතමි. එය තව දුරටද පැහැදිලි කරමි.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">ජොතිස්යය විද්යාවක්ද? එය සැලකියුතු වටිනා ශාස්ත්රයක්ද? (තෙවැනි කාණ්ඩය)</span><br />

සතිය සැදුනු අයුරු දැන් පැහදිලිය, එම පැහැදිලි කිරීම නිවැරදි නම් මාසයද ඒ අයුරින්ම පැහැදිලි කල හැකි විය යුතුය. එය එසේමද කියා කෙටියෙන් හෝ විමසා බැලීම වටී. එක වසරකට මාස දොළොසකි. ජොතිස්ය බෙදීම අනුව චන්ද්ර මාස සහ සුර්ය මාස කියා දෙකකි. චන්ද්ර මාසය නම් පුර්ණ සඳු ගෙන් පටන් ගෙන නැවත පුර සඳු දිස්වන දිනය තෙක් වන කාලයයි. එහිදී දළ වශයෙන් මාසයකට දින 30 කි. එමගින් මාසය වෙන්කර හඳුනා ගත හැකි උවද, වසරකට මාස දොලසක් ලෙස වෙන් කිරීමක් එමගින් කල නොහැක. අධි පොහොය තව තව ප්රශ්න ගෙනෙයි. එලෙසම මාස පැමිණ ගෙවී යාම නැවත නැවත සිදු වනවා මිසක මාස කිහිපයක් එක්කර වසරක් ලෙස සැදීමේ ක්රමයක් එහිදී පැහැදිලි නැත.<br />

එලෙසම ඔබ අද භාවිතා කරණ කොනමානයන් අංශක 30, 60, 45, 90 සහ 180 යන අගයන්ගෙන් සමන්විතය. නමුත් මෙම අංශකයන් අප එදිනදා කතා කරණ ආකාරයට රවුම් අගයන් නොවුනේ මන්ද, ඔබ එය සිතුවාද? සැබවින්ම මේවා ජොතිෂයෙදී භාවිතාවන ග්රහ දෘෂ්ටි බලපවත්වන අංශකයන්ය. මේවා මීට වඩා සවිස්තරව පැහැදිලි කල හැකිය, නමුත් ඔබ එයින් විඩාවට පත් වනු ඇතැයි සැක කරමි. එනිසා එසේ නොකර මින් පෙර සවිස්තරව දැක්වූ දේවල් විමසා බලා ඒවා නිවැරදි ලෙස පෙනේ නම් පමණක් මේවා ද පිළිගන්නා ලෙස ඉල්ලමි.<br />

මා සිතනා ආකාරයට මෙය උගතුන් විසින් හදාරා නොමිලයේ පොදු යහපතට භාවිතා කල යුතු දෙයකි. මුදල් උපයන පරමාර්ථ පෙරදැරිව මෙහි නොයෙදිය යුතුය.<br />
<br />
කොතරම් සාර්ථකව ජොතිස්ය පර්යේෂණ සිදුවී තිබේද? (සිව්වැනි කාණ්ඩය)<br />

කළු කුහර හා ආකාශ වස්තූන් පිළිබඳව අති විශේෂඥ මහාචාර්ය ස්ටීවන් හෝව්කින්ස් මහතා පවසන අන්දමට මේ ග්රහ ලෝකයෙන් පිට, මේ සෞර ග්රහ මණ්ඩලයෙන් පිට, මේ චක්රාවාටයෙන් පිට අපට වඩා නැණින්, බෙලෙන් දියුණු ජීවිහු සිටින බව සනාථ වී තිබේ. මේ නව සොයා ගැනීම් ඔස්සේ ලද, ඇමරිකා එක්සත් ජනපදය ලොවට හෙළි නොකරන, ඔබගේ කෙස් කෙළින් සිටුවිය හැකි රහසක්ද ඇත.<br />
<br />
ඇමරිකා එක්සත් ජනපදයෙහි, නෙවාඩා ප්රාන්තයෙහි,ලාස් වේගාස් අග නගර බල ප්රදේශයෙහි, මොජාවේ නම් මරු කතරක ඇති අතිශය සංකීර්ණ එක්සත් ජනපද ගුවන් හමුදා කඳවුරු සංකීර්ණයකි, "එඩ්වර්ඩ්ස් ගුවන් හමුදා කඳවුර"<br />
<br />
මෙම ගුවන් හමුදා කඳවුරෙහි සේවක සංඛ්යාව මේ වනවිට 3,000-3,500 ත් අතර වෙතැයි ගණන් බලා තිබේ. මේ සේවකයන් සියළු දෙනා එක්සත් ජනපදයට ඉතා තදින් ආදරය කරන දේශ ප්රේමීන් අතුරින් තෝරා ගත්තවුන් වන අතර ඔවුහු, ඔවුන්ගේ දරු පවුල් සමඟම මෙම කඳවුරෙහිම වෙසෙති. ඉන් පිටව යාම ඔවුන් බහුලව නොකරන අතර එම කඳවුරෙහි සේවයට බැඳෙන්නෝ සිය නෑ, හිත මිතුරන්ගෙන්ද වෙන්ව තම පවුලටම පමණක් සීමා වූ ගුප්ත ජීවිත ගත කරති..<br />
<br />
මෙම කඳවුරට එහි පනස් පස් වසරක ඉතිහාසය පුරා පට බඳින ලද අනවර්ථ නාමයන් ගණන 27 ක් පමණ වේ. එනමුත් වැදගත් වන්නේ ඉන් එකදු නාමයක් වත් නොවේ.ඊට ඔබ අප කවුරුත් හොඳින් දන්නා සුප්රකට අනවර්ථ නාමයක් ඇත. ඒ "51 වැනි කළාපය" නොහොත් "ඒරියා 51" යන නාමයයි. (Area 51)<br />
<br />
ඒරියා 51 යනු හුදෙක් ජනප්රිය චිත්රපට හෝ මාලා නාටක වල එන සංකේතමය වටිනා කමක් ඇති මුසාවක් වත්, නො එසේ නම් විශ්ව රහස් පසු පස යන දැනුම පිපාසිතයන්ගේ සිත් හි මැවෙන "ෆැන්ටසියක්" වත්, ජනප්රිය සංස්කෘතියේ නව නිර්මාණ ලක්ෂයක් වත් නොවේ. සැබවින්ම ඇමරිකානු යුධ කේන්ද්රස්ථාන අතර ප්රමුඛ මෙහෙයුම් කේන්ද්රයක් ලෙස එවැන්නක් පවතියි. මෙය ඇමරිකානු "අභ්යාවකාශ ආඥා දායකයේ" (United States Space Command)නියෝග මත "තහනම් ගුවන් කළාප අංක 4808"(Restricted Flight Zone R4808) ලෙස සිවිල් හෝ "සාමාන්ය" ත්රිවිධ හමුදා ගුවන් යානා වලට පිවිසුම ඇසිරූ කළාපයක් කොට ඇත.<br />
<br />
මා මෙම කඳවුර ගැන සැකෙවින් ඔබට විස්තරයක් ගෙන ආවේ පෙර කී "කෙස් කෙළින් සිටුවන රහස" මෙම කඳවුර තුළම ලොවින් සඟවා ඇත්තක් බැවිනි. එහෙත් අනෙක් සෑම ශිෂ්ඨාචාරය සොලවන රහසක් මෙන්ම මේ රහසද සියළු විදුලි ආරක්ෂක පද්ධතීන්, සියළු CCTV කැමරා, සියළු M-16 රයිෆල, සියළු පරිගණක නිරීක්ෂණ පද්ධතීන්, මැඩගෙන මහ ජන සවනට කාන්දු වී තිබේ..එවැනි රහස් සඟවා තැබීම කිසි විටකත් සිදු කළ නොහෙන්නේ ඇයි දැයි ඔබට මෙය කියවන විට වැටෙහෙනු ඇත..<br />
<br />
මෙකී රහස් කඳවුර තුළ පිටසක්වළ අතිශය බුද්ධිමත්, තාක්ෂණයෙන් අපට වඩා ගව් ගණනක් ඉදිරියෙන් සිටින ජීවී වර්ග හා ඇමරිකානු රාජ්යාධිකාරීන් මුණ ගැසෙන බව සැබෑවකි. හිටපු මධ්යම රහස් ඔත්තු සේවා අධිපතීහු පවා මේ ගැන සිය විශ්රාමික දිවිය අතර තුර සමීපතමයන්ට හෙළි දරව් කොට තබා මෙලොවින් නික්ම යන්නට වග බලා ගත්හ. මෙවැනි හමු වළදී හෙළි දරව් වූ විශ්ව රහස් දහස් ගණනක් වුවද ඉන් ඔබට වැදගත්ම රහස වන්නේ මෙයයි...<br />
<br />
"පිට සක්වළ ජීවිහු අතර "දුර බැහැර ග්රහ ලොවක ඉපිද, ජීවන චක්රය හා ඉන් මිදීම ගැන මාර්ගෝපදේශකත්වය දුන් මහා පඬි රුවණක් සරණ ගිය කොට්ඨාශයක් වෙති. ඔවුහු අසම සම මානසික ශක්තීන් අතිශයින් බල සම්පන්න ජීවිහු වෙති. සිය දේශක නායකයාට ඔවුහු "තත්ථාගහ්" (Thaththaggah) සහ "නීදෝක්" (Needhok) යන නාමයන්ගෙන් අමතති..."<br />
<br />
මේ කියන්නේ මේ චක්රාවාටයෙන් ඔබ්බෙහි ග්රහ ලෝක වල සිටින බුදුන් සරණ ගිය "විශ්ව බෞද්ධ" ප්රජාවක් ගැන නොවේද?......( ඒරියා 51 වෙතින් හෙළි වූ ආර්ථික, තාක්ෂණික රහස් සිය ගණනක් ඇතත්, මෙවැනි "ආගමික" රහසක් ඒරියා 51 වෙතින් පිටතට කාන්දු වී බොහෝ රහස් අතර වෙනත් නැත. වෙනත් කිසිදු "පෘථිවි" ආගමික දර්ශණයක් තමන් හඳුනතැයි ඔවුන් පවසා නැත..මේ එවැනි රහසක් ලොවට කාන්දු වූ පළමු අවස්ථාවයි )<br />
<br />
බුදු පියාණන්ගේ විශ්වනීයත්වය.....<br />
<br />
"තථාගත" යනු සිදත් සඟරා ඇජරනට අනුව "යථා ගත" හෙවත් "සත්ය ගාමී වූ" යන්නය. නො එසේ නම් " සත්ය මඟ පිළිපන්" යන්නය. බුදු පියාණෝ දෙවියන් උදෙසා, බඹුන් උදෙසා, අමනුෂ්යයෝ උදෙසා මෙන්ම සකළ විධ විශ්ව ජීවීහු උදෙසා කරන ලද සූත්ර දේශානායෙහි බොහෝ කොට තමන් වහන්සේ හඳුන්වා ගත්තේ මේ "තථාගත" යන නාමයෙනි. උදා: අමනුෂ්ය බල පෑමෙන් වේශාලිය මුදවා ගනු වස් කළ රතන සූත්රයෙහි "තථාගතන් දේව මනුස්ස පූජිතං" යනුයෙන් සඳහනක් කළ සේක.<br />
<br />
තවද මේ නමින් උන් වහන්සේ විශ්ව ප්රචලිත බවට කදිම නිදසුන් වන්නේ "ධජග්ග පරිත්තයෙහිද", "ආටානාටිය පරිත්තයෙහිද","මහා මංගල සූත්රයෙහිද", " අනාගත වංශ දේශනායෙහිද" බණවර කථායෙහි සක් දෙව් රජු, සහම්පතී මහ බඹු, වෙසමුණි යක් රජු, සතරවරම් දේවතාවෝ ඇතුළු බොහෝ භගවත් ඇසුර ලද නොමිනිස් ජීවිහු උන් වහන්සේ ඇමතීමටද "තථාගත නාමය" ම යොදා ගෙන තිබීමය.<br />
<br />
එසේ නම් "තථාගත" නාමය මෙ සක්වා තළයෙන් බැහැර වෙසෙන ජීවින් සිය මහා ගුරුවරයා හඳුන්වනු ලබන "තථාග්ගහ" නාමයමය. අප "බුද්ධ" ලෙසින් අමතන විශ්ව ගුරුවරයාණන් ගේ පිට සක්වළ සිසූහු උන්වහන්සේ හඳුනන්නේ මෙපරිද්දෙන් විය හැක.<br />
<br />
දැන් "නිදෝක්" නාමය ගෙන බලමු.<br />
<br />
බුදු පියාණන්ට ඇති සමානාර්ථ නාම 1018 අතුරින් තවත් අතිශය ජනප්රිය නාමයකි "නිදුක්ඛ" යන නාමය..අප බුදු රදුන්ට "නිදුකාණන් වහන්සේ" යැයි අමතන්නේද මෙහෙයිනි. පාලි බසට සහ සිදත් සඟරා විවරණයට අනුව "නි" නම් "වැරූ හෙවත් වැනසූ" යන්නය. "දුක්ඛ" යන්න එහි අර්ථයටම යෙදේ..එනයින් "නිදුකාණෝ" යනු දුක විනාශ කර දමා ජය ගත් තැනැත්තාණන් වහන්සේය.<br />
<br />
දැන් ආටානාටිය බණවරය ගෙන බලන්න..එහිදී වෛශ්රවණ දිව්ය රාජයා තිලෝගුරු පාද මූලයෙහි සිට උන්වහන්සේව මෙලෙස අමතයි..<br />
<br />
"නිදුකාණන් වහන්ස, ඒ රජ හට ආකාශ තලයේ (Outer Space) ආටානාට, කුසිනාට, පරකුසිනාට, නාටපරිය, පරකුසිතනාට නම් පුරවරයෝ වෙති. නිදුකාණන් වහන්ස, කුවේර නම් රජහු ගේ විසාණා නම් රාජධානියක් ද ඇති"<br />
<br />
(මොවුහුද පිට සක්වළ ජීවිහු වෙති - E.B.E- Extra Terrestial Biological Entities or "Aliens" in short form)<br />
<br />
"නිදුකාණන් වහන්ස, රෞද්ර නපුරු ගති ඇති, එකට එක් කරන්නාවූ අමනුෂ්යයෝ ද ඇත්තාහුය"<br />
<br />
"නිදුකාණන් වහන්ස, මේ ආටානාටිය ආරක්ෂාව වනාහි භික්ෂු, භික්ෂුණීන්ගේද, උපාසක, උපාසිකාවන්ගේද, ආරක්ෂාව පිණිසද, නොවෙහෙසීම පිණිසද, සුවසේ විසීම පිණිස ද පවත්නේය"<br />
<br />
වෛශ්රවණ නම් බල සම්පන්න පිට සක්වළ ජීවි නායකයා තිලෝගුරු බුදු පියාණන් අමතා ඇත්තේද "නිදුකාණන් වහන්සේ" යන නාමයෙනි..<br />
<br />
"බෞද්ධ ආකාශ වස්තු විද්යාවට" (Buddhist Cosmology) අනුව මේ "දිව්ය" ලෝක තලයන්ගේ ආයු කාලය මිනිස් ලොව ආයු කාලය මෙන් සිය දහස් ගුණයකි. "කාලය" (Concept of Time) ඇල්බට් අයින්ස්ටයින් මහ ඇදුරාට අනුව අප විසින් ගොඩ නඟා ගත් හුදු මනං කල්පිතයක් පමණක් නොවේ. විශ්වයේ සෑම භෞතිකයක්ම වටා ක්රියාත්මක "ජීව ඔරලෝසුවක්" ඇත. (Cosmic Biological Clock)..එනයින් මිනිස් ලොව කාලය සහ විශ්ව කාලය එක කුඩා පොදු ගුණාකාරයකට ගෙන බලන කල වෛශ්රවණ දිව්ය රාජයා රජ කරන "චාතුර් මහා රාජික" දිව්ය ලෝකයෙහි ආයුෂ මනුෂ්ය ලෝක කාළයෙන් වර්ෂ මිලියන 9.4 ක් වේ..(වසර අනූ හතර ලක්ෂයක් - 9.4 million years )..(මෙම ගණනය පුරාණ ඉන්දීය "සර්වාස්ථිවාද" සංකල්පයන්ට අනුව සිදු කොට ඇත.)<br />
<br />
බුදු පියාණන් වහන්සේ පිරිනිවන් පා වදාළා අපේ මිනිස් කාලයෙන් තවම ගත වී ඇත්තේ වසර 2550ක පමණ කාළයක් පමණි.. එය විශ්ව ඔරලෝසුවට අනුව නම් ඉතාම සුළු කාළයකි..."චාතුර් මහා රාජික" ඔරලෝසුවට අනුව තප්පර ගණනකි!!...<br />
<br />
මේ අනුව අපට නිගමනය කළ හැක්කේ එදා බුදු පියාණන් සෙවණේ ආටානාටිය විමසූ දිව්ය, යක්ෂ, කුම්භාණ්ඩ, රාජයන්ට තවමත් බණ අසා ගොස් වැඩි වේලාවක් ගත වී නොමැති බවයි...!!!!<br />
<br />
එසේ නම් එදා ගෞතම බුදු සරණ ගිය "ඒලියන්" උපාසක, උපාසිකාවන් මෙන්ම එදා බුදු පා සෙවණේ ආර්ය සත්ය අවබෝධ කර ගත් "ඒලියන්" සෝතාගාමීන්, රහතුන් මේ මොහොත වන විටත් "හබල්" දුරේක්ෂයට නොපෙනෙන චක්රාවාට වල සිට "නමෝ බුද්ධාය!" කියනවා විය යුතුය....<br />
<br />
මහාචාර්ය ස්ටීවන් හෝව්කින්ස් පවසන අන්දමට පිට සක්වළ ඉතා බලසම්පන්න දියුණු ජීවීන් සිටින මුත්, ඔවුන් අප ගැන හොඳින් දන්නා මුත්, ඔවුන් අප ආක්රමණය නොකර සිටින්නේ ඇයිද? යන්න ඔහුට බලවත් ප්රහේළිකාවකි. ඔහුට එය ප්රහේළිකාවක් වුවත් එය මා හට ඔහු යම් දිනෙක පුද්ගලිකව හමු වෙතොත් (මා බඳු කුඩා මිනිසෙක එතුමා පුද්ගලිකව හමුවන්නට තරම් භාග්යවන්ත යැයි නොසිතමි. ) මට මෙසේ පහදා දිය හැක...<br />
<br />
"අදටත් ඔවුහු මහ පොළවේ ඔවුන් හා සන්නිවේදනය කර හැකිවුන් සමඟ බුදු දහම ගැන යමක් පවසනවා නම් එය අරුමයක් විය නොහැක..මිනිස් ලොවෙන් පිටතත් දන්නා එකම මිනිස් දහම බුදු දහමයි..!!! ඒ පිළිබඳව කිසිදු සැකයක් තිබිය යුතු නැත.. ඔවුහු පෘතුවි ජීවින්ට වඩා බෙහෙවින් බල සම්පන්න වුවත් ඔවුහු අප ආක්රමණය නොකරන්නේ "බුද්ධොත්පාද" ග්රහ ලෝකය ඔවුහු පූජනීය කොට සලකන නිසාම විය යුතුය...."<br />
<br />
"මාගේ ධර්මය ඒ දිවයින් හි සුරැකෙන්නේය!" යන බුද්ධ විවරණය ලබා බුදු දහම රකින එක්තරා ජාතියකට එරෙහිව මුළු මහත් ලෝකයක් පැමිණියත්, මොන තරම් දියුණු ත්රස්ත ජාල, මොන තරම් ධනවත් රටවල් සමඟ ආවත් මේ අල්ලක් පමණ වූ කුඩා දූපතක සිටින එම ජාතිය සමූල ඝාතනය කිරීමට ඔවුහු අසමත් වන්නේත් උක්ථ බලවත් සක්වළ ජීවින්ගේ රැකවරණය නිසාම විය නොහැකිද??<br />
<br />
("රෝම, චෝල මණ්ඩල, අරාබි, බ්රිතාන්ය ආදී වූ මහ බලසම්පන්න ලෝකාධිපති අධිරාජ්යන්ට ඒ කුඩා දූපතේ බුදු සසුන අතු ගා දමන්නට හෝ එය රකින සංඛ්යාවෙන් අල්පයක් වූ ජාතිය සමූල ඝාතනය කරන්නට කී වතාවක් වැර දැරුවත් නොහැකි විය.")<br />
<br />
එසේ නම් මේ ග්රහ ලෝකය රැකෙන්නේ අවිවාදයෙන්ම බෞද්ධයන් නිසාම විය යුතු නොවේද?...<br />
<br />

I know that some of you may not have access to Sinhala fonts. Thus, I will publish this all important faction of my writing in English as following:<br />
<br />
"Mind precedes the Body...Your Physical evolution will take the direction of your psychological evolution..These are the perimeters in the journey of Sansara..This is the Buddhist theory of Evolution..!!"<br />
<br />
එසේ නම් " සාර සංඛෙය කල්ප ලක්ෂයක්" ඔස්සේ පාරමිතා දහය පිරීම යනු, "ක්රමානුකූල මානසික පරිණාමයකි"...සම්මා සම්බුද්ධත්වය ලැබීම යනු "මිනිස්" හෙවත් "හෝමෝ සේපියන්" නයින් අප දන්නා ජීවි විශේෂයේ ඉපිද හැදී වැඩී, අතීත මානසික පරිණාමයේ (පෙරුම් දම් පිරීමේ) ශක්තිය කැටි කොට මිනිස් ජීවී විශේෂයේ සිට "විශ්වයේ එක්වරකට, එක කල්පයකට එක් අයෙකු පමණක් පහළ වන්නාවූ" අති ශ්රේෂ්ඨ සුපිරි ජීවි විශේෂය" වන "සම්මා සම්බුද්ධ" ජීවි තලයට කරන "මහා මානසික පරිණාමික පිම්මයි" (කළලේ ඉපිද කළලේ හැදී වැඩී ඉන් නික්ම..... )<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">What you see above is the sunny side of the sky by 2012-12-12 12:00 PM relative to earth (to be exact, at the capital city of Colombo, Sri Lanka). As you see, Mars, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Saturn will be seen right on top of your head, while the planets making a </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">straight</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> line </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">across</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 100%;"> the bright sky (I </span>purposely<span style="font-size: 100%;"> made it dark so that you could see the planets). In another word, six out of seven planets are to be seen on the bright side of the sky. In </span>astrological<span style="font-size: 100%;"> terms this year will facilitate the born of a </span>re-known<span style="font-size: 100%;"> world famous </span>Buddhist<span style="font-size: 100%;"> munk.</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">If you want few more evidence, then </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">study it </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">astronomically too, still </span>you<span style="font-size: 100%;"> will realize that this is rare, special and unusual event that would happen not often. That is after even ignoring the recently discovered Solar Flares (A solar flare is a sudden brightening observed over the Sun's surface</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">), </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">Galactic</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> Alignment (The Galactic Alignment is the alignment of the December solstice sun with the Galactic equator) or Earth Pole Shift, that could happen in the year 2012.

<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;">Originally, it was the Mayan Calendar that made the year 2012 a special. If you time travel and get to the future using software used by NASA, and investigate the sky by 2012 </span>December<span style="font-size: 100%;">, you will see that the month December carries some planets combinations that scientist have not seen in the recent past. So not just astrologically but in astronomy/ science point of view too, the ancient Mayan culture is not to be ignored. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;">Though it was not </span>archaeologically proved, t<span style="font-size: 100%;">here are few evidence and </span>folk-shores<span style="font-size: 100%;"> to believe that '<b>Mayan'</b> culture has an ancient roots to Sri Lanka (Thun-Hellaya) that initiated when </span>noble<span style="font-size: 100%;"> king '</span><b style="font-size: 100%;">Ravana</b><span style="font-size: 100%;">' was ruling the world. Once, way back in the history Mayan was called the culture of ‘</span><b style="font-size: 100%;">Pathala</b><span style="font-size: 100%;">’. The '</span><b style="font-size: 100%;">Pathala</b><span style="font-size: 100%;">' is a culture that matured under the ruling king '</span><b style="font-size: 100%;">Ravana</b><span style="font-size: 100%;">' (Please read 'Ramayanaya', if you have not heard of king Ravana). I believe that the modern astronomy (</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px;">in the form of astrology)</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%;"> might have first appeared (this idea is strongly supported by the researches done by the senior Sri Lankan </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;">writer</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%;"> Arisen Ahubhudu) during this period.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: 100%;">Dr Michio Kaku, the great scientist (professor of </span>theoretical<span style="font-size: 100%;"> physics) of the modern era, recently speaks of type 0, 1, 2, and 3 civilizations that could exist in the universe. He says today we see few initial seeds of a type 1 civilization that blooming on earth too. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;">Those who have read the ancient scriptures would have read '</span><b style="font-size: 100%;">Ravana</b><span style="font-size: 100%;">' as the king for all human and divine races, and the one who can command the Sun. Now, that could be an utterly exaggerated write-up or may be, after hearing how <b>Dr Kaku</b> described a type II </span>civilization<span style="font-size: 100%;">, I just wonder whether they are trying to interpret a type 2 civilization in laymen terms. I cannot take a hard step at it, but I do encourage you to </span>research<span style="font-size: 100%;"> further..</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">Now, for those who have never heard of Dr Michio Kaku he says.. A Type II civilization may resemble the Federation of Planets seen on the TV program Star-Trek (which is capable of igniting stars and has colonized a tiny fraction of the near-by stars in the galaxy). A Type II civilization might be able to manipulate the power of solar flares, may control </span>weather etc<span style="font-size: 100%;">. A type III can control the entire fabrication of the entire universe..</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">So all in all what I wanted to tell you once again is that, '<b>Mayan Culture'</b> is something to be taken very seriously.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 100%;">Now, coming back to the sky of December 12th noon of 2012, by that date we will see all major planets (six out of seven in our solar system) come to one side of earth. </span>Additionally<span style="font-size: 100%;">, we all know that during this same period the earth get closer to the center of the milky way galaxy (that is a black hole) too. Then to make it worst, the earth </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">pole</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> twist happens every 27000 years comes right around the year 2012 too. So by considering the </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">galactic</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> alignment, 6 planets being </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">positioned</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> on one side of earth and getting closer to the black hole will increase the gravitational force (away from earth) more than any other time in the recent history.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">I hope you all know what galactic alignment is and that is earth, sun and the center of the galaxy aligns to form a straight line. I have heard many talk about this but ignoring many other important points..</span></span><br />
<br />
<ul style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
<li style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">Galactic alignment happened in the recent past too. So we cannot believe that just the galactic alignment alone can make significant influence on earth..</li>
<br />
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;">This time the earth/ Sun is lot closer to the center of the galaxy than any other galactic alignment occurred in the recent past. So this </span>phenomena<span style="font-size: 100%;"> together with the Galactic Alignment could make a decent influence..</span></li>

Depending on how stable the earth plates (there are many plates in earth. We live on top of those plates. They constantly move, when an edge of a earth plate meet an edge of another plate they get unstable, and that could result earth quakes) would be, there will be a high probability for us to experiencing earth quakes and tzunamis during this period. That is with the obvious support given by the additional gravitational forces that would have on earth during this period. And depending on how other variables come about, and earth whether pattern respond to the earth pole twist, we may even see weather changes than we saw in any recent past... So all and all there are enough factors to believe that it is not going to be as smooth as some optimistic would expect to go pass year 2012.</span></span></div>

But if you want to keep it for long then you need to find an easy way to clean it. I thought of building a fish tank. But knew that the cleaning of the fish tank is ultimately going to be the problem.. So as it was with any other case, I researched to find out the possibility of making my aquarium a self-sustainable one.<br /><br />As you know there are three type of living agents in a fish tank<br />1. Consumers (fish),<br />2. Producers (plants),<br />3. Composers (shrimps, snails).<br /><br />If you know how to balance the three in the tank, you got it self-sustainable. On my way..<br /><br />* I talk to few local experts in the respective fields but all said it is not possible<br />* Some have done research, and saw them on the internet<br />* <a href="http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/">Back yard Aquaponic</a> looks great<br />* <a href="http://theaquariumwiki.com/Walstad_method">Walstad method</a> is excellent too<br /><br />So it seems the path ahead is not totally dry..<br /><br /><br />After much research I started to build it. The end result was a giant tank holding roughly about 3000 liters of fresh water.. The tank was purely built using cement, sand and something called cement brick (native to Sri Lanka I guess). I had three 3 x 2 ft 8mm thick glasses. Later I thought whether I would have added one more glass of same size to improve the inside visibility. But then again less glass mean less sunlight which turn to less algae in the long run. Anyway it is too late to change it now..<br /><br />The tank was prepared for fish (In theory the new cement layer produce many toxic and also high PH level) by putting water, coconut husk and letting the two stay there for about a week. In a very short period you will see algae grow and then the mosquitos started to breed. In native term, this indicates that the tank is just ready for fish now. The tanks was further prepared ..<br /><br />• ½ cubic meters of fresh soil – I used fresh soil as that has less iron, and other chemicals. That also can hold fish waist lot longer than soil taken from the surface. This way plant can grow to consume nitrate of water and soil later.<br />• ¼ cubic meters of large rocks – This adds variety to the tank and also helps to control the temperature inside the tank.<br />• Aquatic plant, one wheel borrows – They are the oxygen producer and also the nitrate consumer. They help to control the temperature inside the tank. Most of these collected from the paddy field at the end of our land. There are many emergent plants around this area but not many submerged plants. Emergent plants with their aerial advantage can oxygenate the tank bed much faster than submerged plant which depends on the co2 of the water. This area is rich with many varieties of ferns.<br />• 10 different varieties of submerged plants – I bought many varieties of submerged plants from the local aquarium shops. You need to buy many varieties of submerged plants as you don’t know which can survive under you tank condition. Obviously some of these plants will dies while some other will find their way to establish in this new setup.<br /><br />Being in an Island I can easily find sea sand.. so I added few basket of sea sand to cover the whole tank bed. This made a 1 inch thicker sand layer on top of the fresh soil.<br /><br />Then water is introduced to the tank. On my way, I noticed these…<br /><br />• Mud color in the water<br />• Sea sand had some chemicals that dissolve in the water and they added a greenly color to the water. From the time I saw that I knew it came to last long. Sea sand is a bad choice, specially the one you can find in hardware shops these days.<br /><br />I used to live in a village of Sri Lanka and in such places every home has a dug well (dug well water has limited oxygen so that you cannot add fish to this water immediately after you completed adding). The tank is filled with water, mud, and with the dusty color made by Sea sand. About two days later the mud settle down but not the green color added by the sea sand.<br /><br />So it is time to introduce few fish to the tank. The water channel has enough fish in it. I pick few variety of<br />1. Dandies (<a href="http://fishbase.org/Country/CountrySpeciesSummary.php?c_code=144&id=5493">Striped rasbora</a>),<br />2. Local variety of Fighter Fish (Betta),<br />3. Two small loola fish (variety of <a href="http://fishbase.org/Country/CountrySpeciesSummary.php?c_code=144&id=343">Murrel</a>). I hope to control the fish population with these two,<br />4. One mada kanaya (<a href="http://fishbase.org/Country/CountrySpeciesSummary.php?c_code=144&id=5147">Spotted snakehead</a>). It jumps out of the tank twice and then after putting back survived only a day as it does not to have its habitat. The fish needs an ultra-soft mud layer to hide him so died in my fresh soil tank bed.<br />5. 4 tilapias,<br />6. few dozens of Weligouva (Bar eyed goby) and<br />7. Small shrimps to clean the tank bed. But I never saw the shrimp lately saw I wonder whether the fish ate them later. I know some fish eat shrimps.<br /><br />I went about another 4-5 days. The fish were looking healthy but I never feed them and the water get little clearer now, but still not clear enough to see the fish if they are not close to the glass. I knew that the plants also take time to establish themselves in this new setup. Until that time I have to bear with the bad coloring of the water.<br /><br />A week pass by, the water got slightly better, mud went away but the dissolved coloring continue to stay.. Some plants gradually started to pick up while some ferns died away. I had a 76 fish in the tank and it was too little for the size of this tank. I decided to add more<br />1. 40 neon tetras,<br />2. 20 small white angels,<br />3. 8 two dotted gouramies,<br />4. 8 medium size silver sharks (wonder whether it was one of my bad selections),<br />5. 8 gold barb, and<br />6. 4 other small fish that their name I didn't remember..<br /><br />The total added up to 175 fish in the tank now..<br /><br />About two weeks later, I suddenly noticed that algae is starting to pick up.. It is so evident that algae going to beat the plants. A biological fight has to start now. The plants are still at their very primitive stage, so I cannot wait till they grow enough to absorb nitrate to reduce algae.<br /><br />The fish pollute water and add ammonia to it. Then the bacteria in the bed of the tank convert it to nitrate which is what encourage the algae growth. As the tank is getting outside sun light during the whole day, I needed to act fast.. I throw few of my trump cards…<br /><br />1. Covered the top part of the tank with water lettuce (Local variety) to reduce the sun light while introducing a confident nitrate consumer. These are so aggressive that they can beat algae by consuming more nitrate while hurting algae by the way of reducing sun light.<br />2. Introduced Kang Kung (Water Spinach) that is another aggressive submerged plant and also a vegetable. Kang Kung is so aggressive that start to grow rapidly in days. Now the top part is fully covered and you hardly can see the inside. This is with the mud added with the water lettuce and also the dissolved colored chemicals added with the sea sand.<br />3. 5 W pump to filter the water – This is a(for Sri Lankans, this consumes 3-5 unit of your electricity and have virtually no impact of the monthly bill) small water pump (600 L/H and I bought it for about 1300/= (~ 13/ $) Sri Lankan rupees) with a homemade sponge filter. I had to clean this every day. I know that once the plants are established I can remove the filter..<br /><br />The tank start to show some results now. It gets clearer every day.. the coloring added with the sea sand also start to pass away slowly.<br /><br />Now the half completed tank looks like this.........<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ogFW8MYMtdk/TWY93XPveRI/AAAAAAAAArk/nX7EFKp25tc/s1600/DSC00026.JPG"><img style="width: 200px; height: 150px; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577213209887078674" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ogFW8MYMtdk/TWY93XPveRI/AAAAAAAAArk/nX7EFKp25tc/s200/DSC00026.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EVfwFbIZ-aY/TWY93OsRnaI/AAAAAAAAArc/LxmWtnEIdsg/s1600/DSC00024.JPG"><img style="width: 200px; height: 150px; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577213207590837666" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EVfwFbIZ-aY/TWY93OsRnaI/AAAAAAAAArc/LxmWtnEIdsg/s200/DSC00024.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MFgH6snsP28/TWY929iIDeI/AAAAAAAAArU/tICTnZ4p2S4/s1600/DSC00025.JPG"><img style="width: 200px; height: 150px; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577213202984865250" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MFgH6snsP28/TWY929iIDeI/AAAAAAAAArU/tICTnZ4p2S4/s200/DSC00025.JPG" /></a><br /><br />Today when I check the water is much clearer and I can see the wall of the tank which is about 4 ft away from the glass..<br /><br />The view of the tank after 2.5 months later given below.. now the tank is settling.

But no matter what, at the end MR will surely win and be the next president of this country, but the million dollar question is the percentage of the lead that he would acquire. <br /><br />In the same time, a win for MR would reduce the much expected post election violence.<table><tbody><tr><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDSGeCuTE8tWgtwNpYBpvd10mJKaZQU6KAuDHWAycwSBkuS4Hj6nU-ZMB9kNuk0XdMXKhKSZfL2TmaUEU4ZKf0TQhlX1JL5ABcz2mcuAs6RXa6B3Qg7PQt-fNFS7cOKryCS0XvBKDKwykM/s1600-h/SF.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 146px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDSGeCuTE8tWgtwNpYBpvd10mJKaZQU6KAuDHWAycwSBkuS4Hj6nU-ZMB9kNuk0XdMXKhKSZfL2TmaUEU4ZKf0TQhlX1JL5ABcz2mcuAs6RXa6B3Qg7PQt-fNFS7cOKryCS0XvBKDKwykM/s200/SF.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546641502747186" /></a></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td><br /></td><td></td><td>---------------</td><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGsb6pItjLPVkduS8hxJfIgMhswf79hWjGdG9Y6SXzQ8M2LYkRmksUVSjiMp5pWHTe5l-xDbXygdJ9tLDzyxhO2owAYuKi-0VlGp-ueXAEQYkgQqPS_BwqvC1e_KayPGHtEBv27flNXQB2/s1600-h/MR.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 91px; height: 114px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGsb6pItjLPVkduS8hxJfIgMhswf79hWjGdG9Y6SXzQ8M2LYkRmksUVSjiMp5pWHTe5l-xDbXygdJ9tLDzyxhO2owAYuKi-0VlGp-ueXAEQYkgQqPS_BwqvC1e_KayPGHtEBv27flNXQB2/s200/MR.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546638330107538" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table>If it is a close win. That would create doubts among people, making the upcoming parliament election an even closer fight. That can increases the uncertainty, forcing a signification portion of floating voters to vote for UNP at the next election. A close win would also give ever needed confident to a significant portion of frustrated government MPs to swap their side. If a win for SF could put the country in an anarchy state, a same could expect from a close win. A close win can paralyze the government, badly effecting the growth of the country. MR is a good leader and he take right decisions the right time (good or bad), but if the win in the presidential election is a close one, then the paralyzed enemies will gain energy to rise against him openly. That, in one way can press the morals of his proud family members to the wall. <br /><br />If MR can manage to get a 60% win over the main opponent in the presidential election that can very well guarantee an easy win for him in the upcoming parliament election.<table><tbody><tr><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDSGeCuTE8tWgtwNpYBpvd10mJKaZQU6KAuDHWAycwSBkuS4Hj6nU-ZMB9kNuk0XdMXKhKSZfL2TmaUEU4ZKf0TQhlX1JL5ABcz2mcuAs6RXa6B3Qg7PQt-fNFS7cOKryCS0XvBKDKwykM/s1600-h/SF.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 146px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDSGeCuTE8tWgtwNpYBpvd10mJKaZQU6KAuDHWAycwSBkuS4Hj6nU-ZMB9kNuk0XdMXKhKSZfL2TmaUEU4ZKf0TQhlX1JL5ABcz2mcuAs6RXa6B3Qg7PQt-fNFS7cOKryCS0XvBKDKwykM/s200/SF.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546641502747186" /></a></td><td>-------</td><td>---------------</td><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/S1mf6e4oBZI/AAAAAAAAAq8/fB9B8vDJX_4/s1600-h/m.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 88px; height: 66px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/S1mf6e4oBZI/AAAAAAAAAq8/fB9B8vDJX_4/s200/m.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546652843640210" /></a></td></tr><tr><td align="right">--------</td><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGsb6pItjLPVkduS8hxJfIgMhswf79hWjGdG9Y6SXzQ8M2LYkRmksUVSjiMp5pWHTe5l-xDbXygdJ9tLDzyxhO2owAYuKi-0VlGp-ueXAEQYkgQqPS_BwqvC1e_KayPGHtEBv27flNXQB2/s1600-h/MR.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 91px; height: 114px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGsb6pItjLPVkduS8hxJfIgMhswf79hWjGdG9Y6SXzQ8M2LYkRmksUVSjiMp5pWHTe5l-xDbXygdJ9tLDzyxhO2owAYuKi-0VlGp-ueXAEQYkgQqPS_BwqvC1e_KayPGHtEBv27flNXQB2/s200/MR.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546638330107538" /></a></td><td>-----</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td align="right">---------------</td><td><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij_-MT1o3R1PRAb2mQAsmkb09u1izAXNmaURKQ3KDQKLS8cmjEwO4sFT-vOQTcaMyb9AbfNTfbo3yRUJTTkMyUERXy81JgUXACJGRJA410gwARWisOtqQFkJTQo43bVDGkhRjNs4Jl0KlT/s1600-h/images.jpeg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 126px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij_-MT1o3R1PRAb2mQAsmkb09u1izAXNmaURKQ3KDQKLS8cmjEwO4sFT-vOQTcaMyb9AbfNTfbo3yRUJTTkMyUERXy81JgUXACJGRJA410gwARWisOtqQFkJTQo43bVDGkhRjNs4Jl0KlT/s200/images.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429546648145635410" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table>After the win, it is going to be challenging for MR to not to take the path, which CBK took in her second term. She single handedly managed to create a barbaric queen out of her. That deposits energy in the people of this country to chase after her after her term ends. She ran out of the country like a traitor (She is truly a sex addict traitor). Who ever brought her to power in 1994 did a historic mistake. So where we are with MR, is he going to do the same..? I can categorically note that he is very precisely aligned to frustrate the people who will vote for him.<br /><br />This will be MR’s last win and that will be the last win for UPFA too. In another term it will be their death win. MR can bring forward one of his brother (Basil, Probably) as the next presidential candidate, but only to create strong objections from his own party. That will break the party in to several pieces. In the same way bringing up one like Maithreepala Sirisena would also be an efficacious remedy to lost the election. He is the next logical selection for the post. But he is not a popular character among people. I don't think that he ever had a vision like it was with MR. It can be some one from UNP or the candidate may not be even from UNP, but whoever it is, the bottom line is that it is going to be someone from another party (not UPFA) who is going to govern this nation after MR. That day if MR and his family does not want the people of his country to chase after them forgetting everything they did in the past, just like they did to CBK, he has to perform miracles, arrays of miracles just like he did by winning this war against terror. We will just be observers, they are the actors of this scene.. <br /><br />In my view point after they complete MR terms, UPFA will definitely lose the power. That will bring the much waited election violence into the stage too. That day, many politicians (including Mervin Silva), few media personals, army officers, artists will have to pay for the life they earned by doing what they do today. So it is going to be an interesting future ahead.. Election violence, corruption, and political jokes, political dramas (likes of what Wimal Weerawamse is doing) will be of their peaks. This will burry many into the sand valley of the nature as traitors, theifs, loons etc .. If one <span style="font-weight:bold;">can</span> remain as a Hero.. I sincerely hope that it would be MR. He has to be the Hero of this era.. <br /><br />The pen (to write the history) is with MR and he will be writing the history for him after the win over this election.. <br /><br />Later... In 20 years time from now....., the time will tell whether he really is the hero of this era or not..FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-11765192005974343812009-08-26T02:20:00.000-07:002009-08-26T02:40:09.557-07:00Anarkali Akarsha to Southern Provincial CouncilAnarkali Akarsha, to contest for Southern Provincial Council elections representing the Galle District under the UPFA ticket, confirms Susil Premajayantha General Secretary UPFA..<br /><br />In this regards, She has received the nod from the President himself to contest for the Bentara-Elpitiya polling division at the upcoming Council polls.<br /><br />Anarkalli Akarsha was Mr. Samaraweera´s Coordinating Secretary during his days as Minister in the UPFA government.

It also calls for investigations into possible war crimes during the conflict against the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). A counterresolution, tabled by Sri Lanka and backed by powerful allies including China, Russia, and India, calls for the UN to cooperate with the Sri Lankan government in providing humanitarian assistance. <br /><br />During the session, Sri Lanka clashed with Western countries as it attempts to curtail investigations into allegations of war crimes, reports The Times of London. <br /><br />Tuesday's special session on Sri Lanka was requested by 17 nations, including France, Germany, Britain, and Canada. A Human Rights Commission special session has been convened on only 10 previous occasions. <br /><br />Observers at yesterday's preliminary meeting in Geneva, which was described as acrimonious, said that the 47-member Council was divided over the European resolution, with 18 countries for and 18 against. The other nine are undecided…. <br /><br />The two competing agendas clashed in the preliminary meeting when an Asian bloc led by India, Pakistan and Malaysia argued for today's special session to be abandoned altogether. India, China and Egypt walked out of the meeting after this was refused. <br /><br />Sri Lanka went to the meeting backed by powerful new allies such as China, which provided much of the military hardware for the final offensive that defeated the Tamil Tigers last week after a 25-year war…. <br /><br />Several undecided countries, including Chile and Mexico, are pressing for a compromise resolution incorporating elements of both drafts. <br /> <br />International human rights groups are dissatisfied with the European resolution because it fails to call for an international war crimes inquiry and instead suggests that Sri Lanka launch internal investigations, reports Agence France-Presse. <br /><br />Although the European-led text targeted violations during the conflict and backed investigations, the watchdog group UN Watch dismissed it as "a joke". <br /><br />"Despite the call by UN rights officials for an international inquiry into possible war crimes, the proposal instead asks Sri Lanka to investigate itself -- it's a joke," said UN Watch's executive director Hillel Neuer…. <br /><br />Advocacy group Human Rights Watch said that the Council needed to examine the creation of an impartial commission of inquiry to investigate allegations of human rights violations committed by both parties as a matter of urgency. <br /><br />But the Sri Lankan government denies such reports and insists it is in favor of a national reconciliation campaign. On the eve of the Human Rights Commission session, a Sri Lankan government official said international monitoring was unacceptable, reports The Nation, a Sri Lankan daily news paper. <br /><br />The international community is welcome to provide Sri Lanka with assistance, but it should be according to the wishes of the people of this country, including the people of the North, Senior Presidential Advisor and MP Basil Rakapaksa said in a message to the international community. <br /><br />"If they want to be our friends, then they should be genuine friends. We do not want 'monitors,' we need partners. Be our partners in this task to help our people," Rajapaksa said. <br /><br />An opinion piece in an Indian newspaper, the Deccan Herald, argues that the Human Rights Commission's disagreement on how to tackle Sri Lanka is evidence of a global power play underway in the Indian Ocean. <br /><br />In essence, Sri Lanka is the theatre where Russia and China are frontally challenging the US's incremental global strategy to establish NATO presence in the Indian Ocean region. The US has succeeded in bringing the NATO up to the Persian Gulf region. The NATO is swiftly expanding its relationship with Pakistan. But it is Sri Lanka that will be the jewel in the NATO's Indian Ocean crown. Russia and China (and Iran) are determined to frustrate the US geo-strategy. The hard reality, therefore, is that geopolitics is sidetracking Sri Lanka's Tamil problem. <br /><br />Meanwhile, the Sri Lankan government last Tuesday rejected the Tamil Tigers' offer to participate in the country's democratic process after being defeated last week, reports the BBC. <br /><br />In an interview with the BBC, [Sri Lankan defense secretary] Gotabhaya Rajapaksa said the LTTE rebels could not be trusted to give up "terrorism".... <br /><br />He said: "I do not believe the LTTE can enter a democratic process after years of their violent activities." He added that there were "enough democratic Tamil political parties in the country" to represent the Tamil minority.... <br /><br />Mr Rajapaksa also said the work of government forces was not yet over as they had to recover weapons hidden by the LTTE in the northern and eastern regions.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/2009/0526/p99s01-duts.html">Read More....</a>FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-62080907721938276802009-05-20T22:40:00.000-07:002009-05-21T21:30:54.339-07:00Prabakaran is not dead???One more attempt, huh!!..

Did they capture anything new?? What I see in the news is just the regular seen that I saw many times before. This means nothing, specially compared to what happened in Iraq, Palestine or in Afghan. Isn't this video proving that the camp is well managed? What I see here is a set of artificially made stories that would have created with or without getting in to this camp.. I know Tamils are excited about this new channel4 news. Channel4 is making hot news (most of the time hot news are lies) here.. International community has to be careful as some media create controversy for their own advantage. Anyway let’s go through couple of their comments to see if we can answer to them..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Dead bodies left out in the open for days</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - Channel4 is claiming this with no evidence. A man sneaks in to a camp with a camera, but he is telling that dead bodies are everywhere but with having no facts to support his claim. Is this how channel4 produce fair news. If you say this is hot news, then who else wouldn’t have created this, this way??<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Shortage of food and water</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - You are just assuming things in big time.. Open your eyes little more and just look at these people, and just judge it by their body shape, do you think that they have a food shortage? In another place you claimed that people are dying but have failed to capture a single shot of a person who is about to die too. Do you really want someone to believe you? When it comes to food shortage, mm… maybe it is for the main coordinator of channel4 news? He look very thin, isn’t he?..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Channel4 news manage to get cameras passed the army check points</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - Oh.. Great.. That is illegal, not worth for a reputed news channel. So this alone tells the story behind your pain over this problem. The LTTE is having lots of money and they are spending them wisely now. They are buying good lawyers diplomat and are cheating the whole world. I doubt whether some of your reporters are also in their (LTTE’s) payroll.. </p><p>Rightnow, Channel4 is thrown out of Sri Lanka. They deserve it for what they did..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Aid worker is saying that he saws four dead bodies inside the camp, three women and a man, warms came out of mouth of a one…<br /></em><br /><strong>Answer</strong> -An Aid Worker? Who is he any way? I can see a shadow of a man. Is this news created about a serious matter? If bribe some civilians and recorded this, will you not kick their ass? Give me a single evident to prove that this aid worker is from the camp. He can be anybody and it can be anybody’s voice. Who else cannot create news like this? Does the intelligent world believe these?? Shame on you channel4.. You have tried very hard.. More you watch the clicp more it proves that it is a lie..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – one mother have asked him for two spoon of milk powder to feed her kids</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - What are you trying to say here? They may not have milk (why don’t your country sent a ship filled with milk?? So then we will give it to them), that is true, but they do have enough food. Government is sending foods three times a day, but you have failed to note it. I am sure that you would have seen it. But, Yes, I know you don’t want to mention it. It is not assisting your hidden agenda, isn’t it? In the south, dry foods, cloths, medicine and other necessities are collecting (I myself donated stuff to our village temple) and are sending them in lorries every day to these camps.. But you here is shouting that they don’t have milk. Man, you are really one sided.. Your intension is to get richer..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – there are still children without their parents </em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - How many you think came to Army controlled areas just in last month alone? It was in big numbers (over 200 000 came).. So if this happen to your country, do you expect your government to resolve all the problems in matter of hours.. Jesus.. be practical.. You are an asshole and also an idiot.. Have you ever heard of prioritizing your work?? If you have two news to report at the same time, which one you pick, this is not rocket science.. Yes, I know, Media people are *generally* uneducated..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – There is a lack of coordinate<br /></em><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - Just a claim again, you have no proof here. Show us where they have failed to coordinate.. Anyway, when you manage a human avalanche of this size, it is expected, isn’t it??.. Give some time to the government. They will get it organized. I hope you remember the way we recovered form T-Zunami?? Keep watching…<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Women are sexually abused<br /></em><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - Again you have no proof, but will look it to that once the war is over..<br /><br /><em><strong>Comment</strong> – Women have to bath in the open area</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong> - No PROOF AGAIN, it is just a claim again.. but will look it to that once the war is over..<br /><br />Now, what they have done here, they are just fishing in the mud water to create controversy. They are making their news channel famous through that. I have never heard of channel4, but now they are as famous as BBC or CNN. I guess that this is a calculated move that channel4 took to lift them up on the table? I encourage the people with little bit of brain to think about these….<br /><br />News channels wanted to gain access to these areas. But can a responsible government allow news channels to run around and create news at their will in an area where they fight with the most ruthless terrorist group of the world? The answer is NO. However, this may be difference when Australian firefighters fighting with a wild fire. Here, we are up against a terrorist group who will dare to do anything for their survival, in this hora the next minute is not defined.. Let’s assume that Channel4 sent to no fire Zone where terrorist are among civilians. Now, what if a group of news reporters were captured by LTTE and kept on hostage, demanding the government to stop the offensive operations? What will be the result? Look, we have fought this war for 30 years and have lost too many things to risk it for the name of media freedom now. So let’s wait for couple of more months, then we can arrange you news channels a workout to north to write/ show whatever they want.. </p>FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com23tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-84627232750567667572009-05-05T01:51:00.000-07:002009-05-05T05:31:24.431-07:00Answer to BBC [Hospital 'hit by Sri Lankan army']The LTTE is conducting false propaganda to cover their defeat and to find a breathing time to regain their lost power. In this regards a well organized network is assisting them to control the international Medias. Recently an e-mail was sent by a doctor who is working for LTTE with some images attached. It would very well have been ignored, but made the headline of BBC South Asia.<br /><br />I think we need to have some kind of an online source to counter attack these propagandas in a timely manner. Let this be a such initiative....<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:The Sri Lankan army has killed 91 people at a makeshift hospital inside a civilian safe zone in the last two days, two doctors have told the BBC.</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: As a respectable institute we expect BBC to be fairer when producing news. This is such a sensitive topic. To say that SLA hits hospitals, they need to at least give the name of this doctor. That doctor, T Varatharaja is an LTTE stooge. Why would these news organizations take his words as gospel truth?<br /><br />Going along this, can I also make headlines by sending an email with bunch of photos to prove something that never happened? <br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:The doctors said bombardments from the army had killed 64 people on Saturday, including patients, their relatives and bystanders in Mullivaikal.</em><br /><br /><strong>Comment:</strong> Given that he sent photos, why did he failed to produce the photos of the 64 people died in the incident as well. I mean even if one produces them, will you believe it, not knowing the date of which those photos were taken.<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:About 87 people were injured. Another 27 people reportedly died on Friday.<br />The army has denied bombing the hospital, saying that Tamil Tiger rebels carried out suicide attacks.</em><br /><br /><strong>Comment:</strong> Who denied this, let us see the sources to trace this news back, then again who said that LTTE terrorists are carrying out suicide attacks to damage hospitals in their areas? Jesus… Am I getting this right???<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:A doctor in Mullivaikal has sent images he says show shelling at the hospital<br />A spokesman for the Sri Lankan army said that although soldiers had heard explosions in the area, they had not fired any shells.</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: First there is only one spokesman for army. Second we never heard him say this. However he did say that LTTE was firing shell from inside out. The LTTE is firing shell to the out skirt of safe zone to first, kill/ threaten civilian who are about to leave, second to put the bad name on Sri Lankan Army.<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:The army had not used heavy weapons for some days, he said, since the government announced on Monday that it was halting its use of heavy weapons in the conflict zone.<br />The army spokesman said Tamil Tiger rebels had launched eight suicide attacks in the space of two days.<br />A doctor working within the zone has e-mailed the BBC a number of photographs which, he says, show the aftermath of recent shelling at the hospital in Mullivaikal.<br /></em><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: Simply there is no hospital in Mullivaikal. Didn’t responding to this news, Sri Lankan government say this?<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigap9LvHHleXfJwA8yOCEliRSKiKNm0RcwwXPCjyO7WiqxOy0jDwNFhZaQjkuLGqt65KlZE51Tz_vV8ky-mjOVSgQOXFJz5gxtYOHhH-SWKz4ACWNvb5jXwA04MHUwknna3nOWhyphenhyphentB2Lla/s1600-h/Untitled.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332265933840323042" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 228px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 173px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigap9LvHHleXfJwA8yOCEliRSKiKNm0RcwwXPCjyO7WiqxOy0jDwNFhZaQjkuLGqt65KlZE51Tz_vV8ky-mjOVSgQOXFJz5gxtYOHhH-SWKz4ACWNvb5jXwA04MHUwknna3nOWhyphenhyphentB2Lla/s320/Untitled.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><em><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrDb9MoQoZtokug6VSkrQdILzn8kh7Lsh2uNHr7RXE8uv-DOzgtAi2U0igidAZFhwjVcY7d-07a2-jX5vMePxEZnIjXELbFaZSt7JZvF5PI2rxotVcdyKPuzDPzAlyg61JBbL18NqkYel-/s1600-h/Untitled-1.gif"></a><br />One image appears to show a father and son killed as they slept.<br /></em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: In another image it shows shelling at the hospital, but in the same image we see an unharmed tire and a trolley alongside, which tell us that a magical shelling has been taken place to blast off the hospital while not shaking the tire.<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:The hospital lies within a government-designated safe zone set up to protect civilians.<br />In contrast, the defense ministry has put on its website video clips which, it says, show the rebels moving an artillery piece through the zone they control, our correspondent says.<br />Journalists are not allowed near the conflict zone, so the conflicting accounts cannot be independently verified.</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: Yes you cannot verify the accountability, fair enough. But then why the hell you give publicity to the photos sent by so called doctor (I call him an LTTE carder)? Isn’t it what makes the headline of this article??<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:<strong>Trapped civilians<br /></strong>The images sent by a doctor appear to show bodies and damage to structures<br />The reports centre on a tiny strip of land on the north-east coast, where Tamil Tiger rebels are still holding out against government forces.</em><br /><br /><strong>Comment:</strong> They are not rebels they are terrorists, the whole world including LTTE diplomats claim this, but not BBC.<br /><br /><em><strong>BBC</strong>:The Sri Lankan military has restricted the rebels to a 12 sq km (5 sq miles) area and believes it is close to defeating them.<br />Tens of thousands of civilians have been trapped in the area, and the EU and the UN have urged Sri Lanka to observe a pause in its campaign to let them out.</em><br /><br /><strong>Answer</strong>: There is a difference between “been trapped” and “forcibly kept”, what do you think is happening there?FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com318tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-60449146141039044492009-04-28T23:33:00.000-07:002009-04-29T00:08:53.077-07:00Windows 7 RC and CriticsOver the past few years, world have asked Microsoft to make changes to Windows. They say that they listened closely. Now the time has to share the early look at how they've used our feedbacks. They say Windows 7 is faster, more reliable, and makes it easier to do what you want. Check it out below...<br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GqDQ0wUcSPQ&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GqDQ0wUcSPQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Windows 7 seven First Official Video</span><br /><br />While admiring what Microsoft has done to lift up IT as a whole, I’ve been on many blogs where people keep complaining that this new OS is a rip of of OS X, and that the new Taskbar is like the Dock in OS X, and that it’s going to suck. I also think that the picture viewer on tablet is a direct copy from i-phone. In addition to that early reviewer doubt that Windows 7 will be unstable, slow and full of useless features as it was with Vista..<br /><br />I my opinion, MSFT will continue to use their new modular approach they used for vista to license this OS too, but some believe that Microsoft could charge users a monthly fee based on usage. That idea seems a bit far-fetched, because it will really put complete control of consumers’ in the hands of Microsoft.<br /><br />In general, Microsoft, since the introduction of Windows 3.2, have done little to change the core part of the OS, rather they have patched around with multimedia rich features in the name of user friendliness. This approach has vastly reduced the overall performance of the operating system and has become a white elephant that eats up hardware for nothing.<br /><br />I think it is the right time for Microsoft to think fresh and start over to build a new OS that match the current day requirements.FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-4224631533726500212009-04-20T21:23:00.000-07:002009-04-20T23:21:31.053-07:00The World’s Biggest Rescue Operation is on…<div align="left">The president of Sri Lanka (one and only Mahinda Rajapakse) has just taken Praba (the leader of LTTE) on to his shoulder and is about thrash him down on the ground as the Sri Lankan Army is carrying out the world's biggest the mother of all rescue operations, to rescue an over 100, 000 civilians kept on hostage by the LTTE…<br /><br /></div><p align="left"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326996478753284354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 231px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPLU6nPKK4xpWaHnXCCdAIfBdERZOGksmpOkF90qZvL8ta4UAyHNklDtakeFZGEjFpbv7SOYaJ1IfqUtoLGZ_AIZUZYAYCxK8IRg-JDtK6PQa22YO9Mk7VzUlh9ddK0vKKhuOlqWghgfBs/s320/IMG_0406.JPG" border="0" /><br />It is the first time ever in the recorded history of this world, an operation was conducted to rescue more than 40, 000 civilians from a ruthless control of an terrorist outfit within a single day… I believe we are lucky to vitness a group of master combatants showing their master skills up against the world's most dangerous terrorist group..<br /><br />As the battle with LTTE is reaching its peak, Major General Sarath Fonseka(SF) himself steps to the warfront while Sri Lankan Army stand toe-to-toe with so called Prabakaran the Mahaweera. At SF's able hands, many impossible have already become possible. Lots of things happened for the first time as he who loved by the war gods, kept on winning this war. This war is, once said, never winnable. This country with its strong roots leading to many thousand years back, has gifted enough with talents. As it happened many times before (through out in the Sri Lankan history), the right opponent for the LTTE had finally emerged.<br /><br />Wouldn’t the man who beat the death have remembered the miscalculated suicidal attack LTTE did to kill him once? That day, I know LTTE tuned him perfectly by giving him the right will to end this war for ever.<br /><br />Today, SF is at the battle front, standing tall waiting for his opponent to face him eye to eye. If the war between Ravana and Rama made all the worlds including heavens stand still, wouldn’t this be the same.<br /><br />One would have thought that Army is resting with the two day combat break they had to celebrate the Sinhala and Tamil New Year. It was not that case, at around 2.00 A.M. of 20th of April, Sri Lankan Army unpredictably started an operation. They marched under the able leadership of Brigadier Savendra Silva to breaks through the last stretch line to open up another route for civilians to escape. Oh man… isn't that opens the flood gate.. over 40, 000 civilians, let me repeat it again 40, 000 civilians were fled to Army controlled areas in a matter of hours. It is called the great escape from terror…<br /><br />A human avalanche is detected from the sky, same spy planes of Sri Lanka Air Force detected LTTE was using their fire power against their own people to stop them from fleeing away, but it is also noticed the great avalanche continues…<br /><br />President has given the final warning to LTTE and also said he has no objection for them to eat the one that dangling from their neck… So it is the last few hours before Sri Lankan Army penitrate through LTTE leaders. Shame on Diasporas for pumping money for LTTE kill their relatives who lived with LTTE for this long... These Tamils who live in abroad wanted the innocent Tamils who live in LTTE controlled areas to fight and get killed to earn them a brand new home land.. These idiots earn enough money, hence did pomp them to LTTE to drag this war this long.. look what the end result really is..... They have gain nothing, but make the weapons sellers rich..</p><div align="center"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ-g6Osg8-IWY_DQ9cJj30EEtMZ0jVP9sVLa-y90BltBjpSJ33f0bb9OfWoQBpIrOA9iFgKtUZxFheFUj6hZdy2RRuwnANgY2nyT5-hgmNrNTHewYLQ9Bxvyd8fyTe05LLWCUz2lhUbjZA/s1600-h/SLA-Rescue.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327009543845183154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 243px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ-g6Osg8-IWY_DQ9cJj30EEtMZ0jVP9sVLa-y90BltBjpSJ33f0bb9OfWoQBpIrOA9iFgKtUZxFheFUj6hZdy2RRuwnANgY2nyT5-hgmNrNTHewYLQ9Bxvyd8fyTe05LLWCUz2lhUbjZA/s320/SLA-Rescue.gif" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:78%;">Civilians are running away from LTTE controlled areas.. </span><span style="font-size:78%;"><br /></p></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrzNluEhlgRDilLGGY6CFI8s__aNuEgI5gP7Mh5z-3WJ6VfKANpbkhp0mcrlSR7_dUfyK4qbwUos0z6KXOKDpPh1QJh94DkSzZQkNYmozD_mfQ-kM2kN3EiLSAba0gEy0kepdUKz8L8gIW/s1600-h/LTTE-Attack.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327009536600634146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 245px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrzNluEhlgRDilLGGY6CFI8s__aNuEgI5gP7Mh5z-3WJ6VfKANpbkhp0mcrlSR7_dUfyK4qbwUos0z6KXOKDpPh1QJh94DkSzZQkNYmozD_mfQ-kM2kN3EiLSAba0gEy0kepdUKz8L8gIW/s320/LTTE-Attack.gif" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:78%;">LTTE is attacking the civilians with their heavy armed cars </span><span style="font-size:78%;"><br /></p></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAP6G3rnUoJJbp1P-IRGbQ7cAvoPDv1gPkegvn07x_0f1HW2Ns4UoGcUTtEHhb109nVbmqgSUuCv3y0ElTzZ7vSGRhSrPMhcbLaWkbsyhmS_bUCwge2kz9SxK8EYOrqMxjJEmdH02HN5uv/s1600-h/SLA-Rescue-3.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327009543627617826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 249px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAP6G3rnUoJJbp1P-IRGbQ7cAvoPDv1gPkegvn07x_0f1HW2Ns4UoGcUTtEHhb109nVbmqgSUuCv3y0ElTzZ7vSGRhSrPMhcbLaWkbsyhmS_bUCwge2kz9SxK8EYOrqMxjJEmdH02HN5uv/s320/SLA-Rescue-3.gif" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:78%;">Last part of the great escape, civilians are crossing the Pudukuduirippu Lagoon to reach their final destiny to end that heroic journey.. </span></p><p align="center"><span style="font-size:78%;"></span></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6KH_n_FROlw8XTjQoBu4npAoULtpSJVah_UP8FNxKTTzlIc53KL1OIpGXEQQax6DhVccu9QVZUl1A-YSA-kFpDqIbn6Ggy4pUTJleHjnELuPsVS7l_YdxhukW8htL4Q83Gh_iGCyX24lk/s1600-h/SLA-Rescue-mission.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327009545762339634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 248px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6KH_n_FROlw8XTjQoBu4npAoULtpSJVah_UP8FNxKTTzlIc53KL1OIpGXEQQax6DhVccu9QVZUl1A-YSA-kFpDqIbn6Ggy4pUTJleHjnELuPsVS7l_YdxhukW8htL4Q83Gh_iGCyX24lk/s320/SLA-Rescue-mission.gif" border="0" /> </p><p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:78%;">Civilians are coming in massive scale...</span></p><p>One little boy who tried to run away reported to have his both legs cut off in the midst of others being held and while his parents looking at it.

Operation Entebbe, also known as the Jonatan Operation or Entebbe Raid or Operation Thunderbolt, was a counter-terrorism hostage-rescue mission carried out by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) at Entebbe Airport in Uganda on the night of 3 July and early morning of 4 July 1976. In the wake of the hijacking of Air France Flight 139 and the hijackers' threats to kill the hostages if their prisoner release demands were not met, a plan was drawn up to airlift the hostages to safety. So the writer, with his good brain, thinks that, this master rescue operation is similar to the one which Israelis did that day. I am just speech less… I am angry, and very angry…. How long these people will take to think that we can do something by ourselves? Why they always try to find something from the west to compare our work. If it was not for Sir Arthur C. Clark, these people wouldn’t dare to say that great kingdom of Seegiriya is like the back yard of White House or something too…. Man, feel shame about what you said (I am so angry, hence cannot find the right words to show my anger).<br /><br />I personally hate media (uneducated, idiotic, foolish and opportunist), all of them one way or other working toward their own agendas. I know, it is harder for anyone to write something without injecting their political view to that, I am OK with that but showing an unbelievable persuasive attitude toward west like this or changing the truth completely to suite his hidden political agenda will bring us nowhere… </p>FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-310474716644163188.post-15546068058465399162009-04-15T22:40:00.001-07:002009-04-20T02:31:20.696-07:00MIA, Protest Rallies and LTTE's Diplomatic Front<table><tbody><tr><td><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEv-W26lkJqCucAHnBmM_v3A4n6EFBAHi-vtEdrvVCf7Bot_FGnDSMoUQNtb-8OJwZiGU1aLU3svrxnzNBEFUtxaul0d-H5pEkA0uE_vqLIQfgbQ8kMA7weS9WY0E-Hq2Tadwz00z0mcV9/s1600-h/mia2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325160879645428770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto; WIDTH: 170px; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEv-W26lkJqCucAHnBmM_v3A4n6EFBAHi-vtEdrvVCf7Bot_FGnDSMoUQNtb-8OJwZiGU1aLU3svrxnzNBEFUtxaul0d-H5pEkA0uE_vqLIQfgbQ8kMA7weS9WY0E-Hq2Tadwz00z0mcV9/s400/mia2.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrnTlN7Wfe0xDW4TxspNlOP7rkHO_3p_WNzBZPzRGqJtCpHTiVIuN8w7j40fkwQ0FQj9auI8g61x1Q9lMVQrO2BZjKaFC1Xu9Uzj47CUnW-kxdUOTSiyQ0AuDKkLcjZJdlZCEPXyFcKdsX/s1600-h/mia_one.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325160873085714354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto; WIDTH: 170px; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrnTlN7Wfe0xDW4TxspNlOP7rkHO_3p_WNzBZPzRGqJtCpHTiVIuN8w7j40fkwQ0FQj9auI8g61x1Q9lMVQrO2BZjKaFC1Xu9Uzj47CUnW-kxdUOTSiyQ0AuDKkLcjZJdlZCEPXyFcKdsX/s400/mia_one.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/SebFlb2V8lI/AAAAAAAAALk/FYbkraDmdZQ/s1600-h/pregnant-mia-grammys-2009.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325160856333709906" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto; WIDTH: 170px; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/SebFlb2V8lI/AAAAAAAAALk/FYbkraDmdZQ/s400/pregnant-mia-grammys-2009.jpg" border="0" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><p>For any artist a good or bad the publicity is good.

What an embarrassment to all expecting ladies.<br /></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinEUhumaDMDHvUXZs4d_5V9081Q0qjYTLpA7g86QlZ9O3sbEWhyu0dhtCNBt7pP_np4O6KkirZGGclO-60qZ-3aYhu5eGG3V5MCSO6Z9WF4_Fl0uSLwjAxHQoa-YkMbw17U2tqmKh3TNx1/s1600-h/mia-grammy-performance_0_0_0x0_400x525.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325162542288062338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 304px; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinEUhumaDMDHvUXZs4d_5V9081Q0qjYTLpA7g86QlZ9O3sbEWhyu0dhtCNBt7pP_np4O6KkirZGGclO-60qZ-3aYhu5eGG3V5MCSO6Z9WF4_Fl0uSLwjAxHQoa-YkMbw17U2tqmKh3TNx1/s400/mia-grammy-performance_0_0_0x0_400x525.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Let’s lalso not talk about the black money the world's richest terrorist group (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">LTTE</span></span>) has or the hidden agendas they run from behind, but let’s start from accepting that M.I.A. is really nominated for both Grammy and Academy. Let’s also accept that she is truly a talented musician, so as Mohammad Ali is truly a talented Boxer. I am not willing to compare M.I.A. with great Ali but the truth remains hidden that M.I.A. is carefully and cunningly has positioned her in a slot, which once great Mohammad Ali occupied to turn US society upside down. I have heard she claims that she is the only tamil who has a stage to talk about Tamils. She pretend like she wanted to put LTTE aside and help the Tamils. But the truth I believe is that she is trying to find that narrow margin where she can support LTTE while claiming that she supports civilians.<br /><br />It is amazing at times to see how people like M.I.A positioned them self in a way so that even the most talented media personal cannot identify them. I have seeing how US media whole <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">heartily</span> supporting her not knowing who she really was/ is/ will be. Let me try to explain it here. In nature, there are two types of reptiles, some are venomous and some look like venomous but they truely are not. They just have the look and feel of a venomous creature for survival. In this case, it is hard for one to find which one is venomous and which one is not unless one let it bite to see whether it hurt. I believe M.I.A. is also like that venom less reptile. Mohammad Ali is like a venomous reptile. In this case M.I.A is pretending almost like Mohammad Ali but in reality SHE IS NOT, but tells me, how you going to prove it? If we can prove that, then we should be able to tell Oprah, why she should not have M.I.A. in her talk show..<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/SebHX42ID8I/AAAAAAAAAME/vijHC9kGugg/s1600-h/mia.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325162822622515138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/SebHX42ID8I/AAAAAAAAAME/vijHC9kGugg/s400/mia.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Let’s break into the core part of the story, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">LTTE</span></span> is a Tamil formed terrorist (FBI named them as the most ruthless terrorist group of the world) outfit that has a aim to break apart <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Lanka</span></span> and India to form a new homeland. M.I.A.’s father was a member of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">LTTE</span></span> and worked <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">full time</span> for quite a long time. M.I.A. was once openly supported <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">LTTE</span></span>, but as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">LTTE</span></span> is losing the recognition they had internationally, she carefully changed her stance and re-positioned her as the only Tamil who has a strong presence in USA musical stage to talk about Tamil genocide in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Lanka</span></span>. Sometime M.I.A. can be an innocent musician, but as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">LTTE</span></span> sees the recognition she has internationally, willingly or unwillingly she has to do what <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">LTTE</span></span> want her to do. That is the way <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">LTTE</span> work. I am sure that many of you have heard that Sonia Gandhi (President - Indian Congress) had become a target of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">Lankan</span></span> Tamil terrorists (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">LTTE</span></span>). So for an organization that had powers to kill the Indian Prime-Minister, MIA must be just a toy. So I believe MIA is made to work toward a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">LTTE's</span></span> plan. These days she does not openly support <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24">LTTE</span>,</span> but that can very well be a part of the plan too. In return, I doubt whether <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25">LTTE</span> pump black money to assist her do wonders in the American music world. These days for US media, MIA seems to be the Mohammad Ali of the decade. But knowing her legacy with LTTE, can shee be an innocent Tamil who is begging for life of the Tamils who live in the war zone areas?</p><p>The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26">LTTE</span></span> has one goal and it is the only goal they have, that is to form a new country. On their way to achieve it, they have trained (brain washed) carders to suicide them self too. They are getting defeated in the war front now, but are trying to <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">emerge</span> in the diplomatic front with the help of internationally recognized Tamils such as people like <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27">VICO</span></span>, KP and MIA.<br /><br />In the war front, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">Lankan</span></span> Army has open up a whole new paradigm for world’s fight against terror. They have proved that defeating a terrorist group by military mean is not only probable but possible too. As the war is coming to its last part, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">LTTE</span></span> has lost all their strongholds. They are using a human shield to protect them self. That tactic obviously can delay the defeat but obviously cannot prevent it. LTTE is doing this to earn time to assist their diplomatic front, so that they can convince international community to get that most wanted cease fire. However the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32">Lanka</span></span> Army is at the eve of starting the world's largest ever rescue operation now (Already started now). </p><p>We all, including M.I.A. knows that Tamil civilians are forcefully used by <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33">LTTE</span></span> as a human shield, but for some unknown reason no one seems to be bothered about that any more. We need to hit the head of the nail. That is, we need to ask <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36">LTTE</span></span> to release the civilians, which will lead to end the fight soon and also will direct to an automatic sees fire later. However the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37">LTTE</span> diplomats are so good at wrestling with this issue to cheat the international community by showing the damage the war caused on civilians. In that sense international community is showing mercy to LTTE but is forcing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38">SL</span> government to give freedom of movement to civilians who got freed from <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39">LTTE</span> areas. I doubt whether international community has realized the possible threat of LTTE regrouping and is attacking the Army from behind <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40">here. Additionally</span>, I am not sure what method these international communities are using to separate a terrorist from a civilian?<br /><br />Let’s come back to M.I.A. issue again, so I think US media need to seriously study her before they cry for those on-demand hoaxes she made in every interview she faced. She seems to be having a thick skin, a sexy look and a corrupted mind. She can do anything to assist her coward acts. We all know that she openly supported Obama once too. Obama is the president of United State of America now. If one carefully studies, we can see a series incident linked one after the other in an orderly manner there. I am not saying that US president is supporting <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41">LTTE</span></span>, but when a South Indian Tamil wrote a book about Obama, we just thought that it cannot just be another book but that was written with a purpose behind. It is that common goal that they all are trying to achieve.<span style="font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQcAKzLXOmoBU42uNe_MUwabjo3asnvwvdkvLsBQjsxa4-HpHGcgxKmoncwK01Sc3G1PvTVNeMRf7L-m1eGHzM0IrIrLbFp7SRkgnc3odw86Oph-P63MOvYnlIZav9ZpEpAYrEqnalzMme/s1600-h/ad.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325495797269390834" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQcAKzLXOmoBU42uNe_MUwabjo3asnvwvdkvLsBQjsxa4-HpHGcgxKmoncwK01Sc3G1PvTVNeMRf7L-m1eGHzM0IrIrLbFp7SRkgnc3odw86Oph-P63MOvYnlIZav9ZpEpAYrEqnalzMme/s320/ad.jpg" border="0" /></a></span> We all know that South India is fully behind LTTE and is supporting them openly.<br /><br />While this drama is performing in one part of the world, we see a series of Tamil protest rallies in other parts. It is common to see people comes to road and shout about Tamil genocide in war zone areas of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42">Sri</span></span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43">Lanka</span></span>. International media gives full coverage to these protestors who unsettle the daily life of these countries. However interestingly the same media didn't speak a word, when the similar were happening in Iraq... Sad part of the story is that many of these Tamils have their own goal and they are shedding crocodile tears. </p><p>How many of you know that most of these Tamils, who live in war zone areas, are willingly stay with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_44"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_44">LTTE</span></span> to support their fight? Most of these Tamils who <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_45">stay</span> there <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_46">right now</span>, either have their family members currently working for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_45"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_47">LTTE</span></span> or have relatives who got killed while <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_46">serving</span> for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_47"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_48">LTTE</span></span>. They are waiting there willingly and they wanted to get <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_48">injured</span>/ killed, so then, these so called diaspora can have brand new topics every day for their ongoing protest rallies. Let me tell you the truth, these Tamils who have migrated (<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_49">largely</span> to countries like Canada, England, Swiss-Land, Australia, Norway etc) as refugees will have to come back, if the war ends. These Tamils wanted to drag the war. But now the war is ending, so these Tamils know that they have to come back soon, as they cannot live as refugees anymore. So these refugees are protesting as they have no other options. They are protesting for them in the name of Tamils civilians who are willingly stay with LTTE.</p><p>When Tamils attacked the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_49">Sri</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_50">Lankan</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_51">embassy</span> in Norway, do you believe that a single face of a attacker was not captured by any media who recorded the scene? Can that just be another incident?? Can that just be something done by a group of innocent T<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_52">amils</span>?

The Media today is act with no responsibility. They do whatever they want, hiding behind those two heavenly words called "Media Freedom".<br /></div><br /><div>In my mind the media's role is significant in a society like ours. It can play the role of development of collective understandings, new concepts, social awareness and the momentous decisions needed for the growth of our society. However the fact remains that the media today knowingly and willingly report falsehoods for commercial reasons, controversy makes them richer.</div><br />It is common these days to see Medias report the same incident in many different ways to prove their pre-meditated ideas. <br /><br />Recentlt we saw how Media act in an unbelievably selfish manner too. The stories given below have ample evidence to this irresponsibility that the Sri Lankan media has shown ..<br /><br />The picture below evident how media behave, when Lasantha Wickramatunga was rushing to the Kalubowilla hospital after an unidentified gunman shot and injured him. The brutally injured reporter was obviously in a bad shape and he should have been allowed to be taken in to the hospital without the nurses and doctors having to scream at mostly media people who wanted a picture of a person fighting to stay alive.<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/ScIGOSo6h4I/AAAAAAAAAKs/s3YLYXdAPKA/s1600-h/lasantha.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314817352841987970" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 257px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_blxJMA_Pkvs/ScIGOSo6h4I/AAAAAAAAAKs/s3YLYXdAPKA/s320/lasantha.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br />It got worst as Minister of Posts and Telecommunications, Mahinda Wijesekara carrying to the hospital after being air lifted to Colombo for surgery.<br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_Sj7bsIhpW4zu294Oje594BJoDJuuLzV6AFuvgQrpol_W5wJG4UcVXHbig-QI_R7oL3sqgJ6hLatiJ_0IcRnB94nrfWf1LtRY_jZtA8jXHtDhSYwHTm_6m5WxB3GkE3u7jfLUeMLkFgF_/s1600-h/Sri_Lanka_Civil_War_sff_standalone_prod_affiliate_80.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314818557241948434" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 234px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_Sj7bsIhpW4zu294Oje594BJoDJuuLzV6AFuvgQrpol_W5wJG4UcVXHbig-QI_R7oL3sqgJ6hLatiJ_0IcRnB94nrfWf1LtRY_jZtA8jXHtDhSYwHTm_6m5WxB3GkE3u7jfLUeMLkFgF_/s320/Sri_Lanka_Civil_War_sff_standalone_prod_affiliate_80.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br />It is reported that not just at the outside of the hospital but even inside the operation theater there were battling to get a photo of that injured minister who was fighting with the death.

It was almost two days passed by but still Indian Army is struggling to take control over the scene. The terrorist are still attacking and have already achieved their goals.<br /><br />The immaturity shown by the Indian defense is highly questionable. That raises many doubts about their readiness for a sudden terrorist attacks of this nature. However India had his long wind habit of pressurize/ advice Sri Lanka about how to deal with terror.<br /><br />This is a simple comparison that I have done in between Indian Army against a terrorist group and Sri Lankan Army against the most ruthless terrorist group.<br /><br />You will have the Indian army in the left side while Sri Lankan Army is in the right side..<br /><br /><br /><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td><p align="center"><strong>India</strong></p></td><td><p align="center">Vs</p></td><td><p align="center"><strong>Sri Lanka</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzAah3Sb_lcZoBPUyxxkJXBWgODCJJ07GBZhmjrmTB43HuXA0j99Ekip_y8LD3BzkZkX61u13nnemyafGNy9WjNEwk3Np_zPNch5wobLFsMqhTWPJqJMF4_5xZLb_TLR0tejpRpx59sfXw/s1600-h/1.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5273680061753974322" style="WIDTH: 250px;

Today we are facing a similar threat from TAF.<br /><br />Remember... realization that a problem exists is the only way we can ever reach a solution. Understanding the problem is the key to the formulation of a good solution. Our present air defense system lacks the ability to detect and engage extremely low- flying (I guess the actual segment of this air-space is between the ground and 100 feet above) attack planes that are currently in used by LTTE. The improvement of LTTE’s air wing has created a leak in our air defense umbrella. As per it stands today we have a threat that requires immediate attentions. We were attack in multiple occasions now. However it is unreasonable and also unrealistic to expect SLAF alone to prevent such future threats from TAF without assisting them by doing significant improvements to their current air defense setup. <br /><br />We know that our radar coverage is insufficient to provide timely warning and also the existing air defense weapons (we have a range of weapons) are lacking the accuracy, depth and capabilities. As a result of this the ZLINs have evolved to be a serious threat to the ongoing war against terror, to our country, and in general to the whole region. According to the way I see it, this need a “quick fix” as well as a long term solution (with an array of progressive interim solutions).<br /><br />In my field of expertise (I am not a defense expert) there's been debate about the impact of open source approaches on security. The open source exposes the source code of a software system to everyone, hence both the attackers and defenders get access to it, as per my view point the end result is better security than a close code system. If you apply the same concept to military defense, I thought it would be ideal to have the problem discussed in public to indentify the main defense framework against ZLIN (Zlin-143, which is the aircraft used by TAF). That I hope will produce a good start to a realistic end solution.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqDtCb2OReZGsAvwpGX_M7NF-Hy5m00t6s9fvsGgEDFip33OQAuJ0yfNWFnwWQ0LdByVRvCKmlFnOboGNghYAYUVj3_LZj3_eKvDsdE6xjtpyppwLl_dUYwfmTu-QIEIOGstV_KCWhUOkS/s1600-h/z143l_5.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266467147627032786" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 136px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqDtCb2OReZGsAvwpGX_M7NF-Hy5m00t6s9fvsGgEDFip33OQAuJ0yfNWFnwWQ0LdByVRvCKmlFnOboGNghYAYUVj3_LZj3_eKvDsdE6xjtpyppwLl_dUYwfmTu-QIEIOGstV_KCWhUOkS/s200/z143l_5.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The ZLIN or TAF has open up a whole new context to this war. I can remember once Sri Lankan media (foolish, opportunist and greedy) were shouting saying that the final war will be fought on the sea with LTTE. The same was heard from LTTE spoke person too. But what has happened today, the LTTE naval wing has been almost neutralized by our SLN (Sri Lanka Navy). We worked toward what was shown but did not notice the hidden plan. I think sea-based-war was LTTE’s plan A. So then what is their plan B, which no one bothered to find? Even today, I am not sure how many of you have recognized that a war on air has already begun. In that context, LTTE is having the upper hand.<br /><br />We all need to start analyzing this ponderous issue thoroughly. It has to be through a combined effects of technological and tactical knowhow (we need to combine all forces here), available weaponry (we need to combine all weaponries here), and the desire (which we all have), that we can find an acceptable solution under which we can operate (that mean, be cost effective).<br /><br />As I have already mentioned, keep the picture in your mind that this flight starts at the ground and rises only enough to avoid impact with low obstacles. It also can use ground obstacles such as high rising buildings, land diversity (such as Mountains Rivers etc) to its own advantage too. Now visualize all these happening in a dark night. Having these in your mind, think that you are deployed on the ground with an anti-aircraft gun to shoot down this aircraft. So how feasible would that be, with a one-shot opportunity to gun this target down. It is not that easy right? Having that in mind let’s now try to find some solutions to this problem more closely.<br /><br />According to my understanding the first and most important is to accurately identify, where the TAF platforms (airport) poised. As per the media, I am utterly confused, and sometimes it is even said that last attack was carried out by a plane airborne from South of India. In this regards, I heavily favor Long Rangers (LRRP units) to trace down the location of these ZLIN. We need to form a new special unit for this task. We need to train them with the help of our ally countries such as Russia. Today the LTTE activities are limited to killinochchi, which is about 625 square kilometers area. It is just 25 Km wide land area. That is where TAF keep their planes, and that is where we need our LRRP units to focus. <table><tbody><tr><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOls9TuBNN-7tm3cjQyEsJzCPpMbQpcf5uEsGZDxNqS2kRuEHtLRxm4T5B_NT62DJWmwrrw83caxsLF4zLjozYLkftFD3Zb86PW4nUKFqmsMK18hYDuh5POL5YHLqewdVxBKLpdzSa-1gZ/s1600-h/LRRP4.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266470004890251634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 124px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 83px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOls9TuBNN-7tm3cjQyEsJzCPpMbQpcf5uEsGZDxNqS2kRuEHtLRxm4T5B_NT62DJWmwrrw83caxsLF4zLjozYLkftFD3Zb86PW4nUKFqmsMK18hYDuh5POL5YHLqewdVxBKLpdzSa-1gZ/s200/LRRP4.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyrzmJjl-gO3Q6lnyNADjWYsFHQ2tr90h2JDL9y4BRqhERMVO97-dAMeMEmUaGqdum7wHa8l708caM1wY8yghCt98PmT13KUYWktT4keCaA8Pwoa1n-RgplzarJUYWN2Rt6s1UIqd855XL/s1600-h/LRRP3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266470005532308114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 123px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 83px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyrzmJjl-gO3Q6lnyNADjWYsFHQ2tr90h2JDL9y4BRqhERMVO97-dAMeMEmUaGqdum7wHa8l708caM1wY8yghCt98PmT13KUYWktT4keCaA8Pwoa1n-RgplzarJUYWN2Rt6s1UIqd855XL/s200/LRRP3.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkwb_99daPlPRYputCH2sVyLPX-x5pp3MAY200YTrgcYBtVs2sxkjqL3dhPM0ZNIvOeDLzILB-UzGnVSHVc18HEOC48gMqzrQOu35zl46yvsdAJ46YU2KKrya3UmOgCzwFjlMC2QFwuqW1/s1600-h/LRRP2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266470004772644082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 118px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 83px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkwb_99daPlPRYputCH2sVyLPX-x5pp3MAY200YTrgcYBtVs2sxkjqL3dhPM0ZNIvOeDLzILB-UzGnVSHVc18HEOC48gMqzrQOu35zl46yvsdAJ46YU2KKrya3UmOgCzwFjlMC2QFwuqW1/s200/LRRP2.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8zp7TnNiLm6IxZQFO9Vofhf4W2DIuCISzgZZACIJr5J35s6C_aAQQ1FoICIIVNQUpTHLTv3APU6c6I68noGIbIM8dwTX5dceYoPzSULmKPPnpR2aPlXsL4kj_0ZJ5BS6H-3dPSrPofWnY/s1600-h/LRRP1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266470004733224466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 124px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 83px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8zp7TnNiLm6IxZQFO9Vofhf4W2DIuCISzgZZACIJr5J35s6C_aAQQ1FoICIIVNQUpTHLTv3APU6c6I68noGIbIM8dwTX5dceYoPzSULmKPPnpR2aPlXsL4kj_0ZJ5BS6H-3dPSrPofWnY/s200/LRRP1.jpg" border="0" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:78%;">Long Rangers - SLA LRRP Units</span></p>Given the money we spent over this tiny aircraft, if we are willing to spend few more dollars to bribe couple of Tamil civilians, who would dare to risk their life for money. We may start receiving some accurate information about the ground location of these planes as well.<br /><br />Above two, along with increasing the aggressiveness of ground operations (if possible) are the cheapest and also the quickest solutions that we have right now. I know ground operations have its own goals but as the low flying zlin become the primary threat, they all need to be re-adjusted to support the mission against zlin. No matter what other solution we find, above three have to be the mandatory.<br /><br />The next step of our analysis will be to look at present air defense systems and the problems created by the existence of the evolving low-altitude threat. Let's get started with a discussion of the capabilities of zlin-143 (TAF). The Z-143 is a light aircraft, famous for pilot training. It is easy to manure and can fly at night or (in) low visibility conditions. However the most important but ignored factor here is that it can take a pay load of 1000kg (2200lbs). But have we seen them carrying 1000 KG of explosive in any of the recent attacks? What we have seen is, it only carrying four bombs. So it seems to have a fair bit of unused space to carry more weapons. Now the million dollars question is, was it just the tip of the iceberg? Think about couple of modified zlin-143s storming to Colombo with 12.7mm four-barrel, chin-mounted, rotary gun; four 32-round packs of 57mm or four 20-round packs of 8Omm unguided rockets; and four AT-2 Swatter antitank, guided missiles, four bombs together with decoy flares (or radar jammers) for self-protection (it is like a Mi-24, yes I know it is bit of a work to get a zlin-143 modified like this). What do you think the outcome of it would be? If we have not accurately read the strength of our enemy yet, we must improve our military intelligent wing and find answers to these sprawling questions before it is too late.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3cZmoG3C2jXzVOeRqKbr_daZhc0kxRJtVtpkyu4l0aOmSjtLXJlg09o0wpgYnD3FR7J2jf0vtvTsL-CUntlzozu538TgWx-wf1aFz_rjgvMs9Yn1u3uJmOH0BeuV8fRkkmSpqqqiVxnH/s1600-h/Drawing1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266504128574796754" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 142px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3cZmoG3C2jXzVOeRqKbr_daZhc0kxRJtVtpkyu4l0aOmSjtLXJlg09o0wpgYnD3FR7J2jf0vtvTsL-CUntlzozu538TgWx-wf1aFz_rjgvMs9Yn1u3uJmOH0BeuV8fRkkmSpqqqiVxnH/s200/Drawing1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />If we opted to attack this plane on the air, then we at least need to satisfy the first principle of air defense, early warnings. But the existing infrastructure that we have is incapable of giving it. That is with the obvious fact that LTTE always manure their plane just 100 feet above the ground level.<br /><br />So then the common problem that we have to deal with is the detection. Today, we simply can't see low-altitude targets with our current equipments. In order to employ our weapons against this enemy, we must first be able to detect their presence. A realistic detection range of an air target at 100 feet below (which is what zlin-143 is flying) is very short and that again depending on the amount of ground clutter present around the radar base. However, let’s assume that we deployed/ configured radar systems to detect air born sources at 100 feet. That will require a set of strategically positioned radar units to track the position of the plane continuously. All these need to happen in a timely manner so that a fast moving attacker like F-7G (with Max Speed ~ 2,175 km/h) can chase down the ZLIN before it reaches its goal. If we are able to detect early and continuously trace its route then we can also deploy a Mi-24 too. In order make this a real we indeed need certain upgrades to the Mig21/ F-7g radar system to effectively detect low flying aircraft while avoiding ground clutters (radar system with Low Altitude Navigation Targeting Infrared for Night). However there is a big cost associate with that.<br /><br />Again, if we employ our fighter jets for an on-air-attack, that will effectively have us shut down the anti air craft defense system to avoid "confusion" and minimize friendly firing in the overhead airspace at night. In addition to this given the current condition of F-7, it may require continuous assistance from the ground radar units to guide its way to find this low flying aircraft, which mean we may have to deploy many ground radar units to increase our detect-ability. On the other hand when flying low, an F-7 can suck dust, birds and even dead trees damaging its engine. That solution will be costlier and may incur long term additional cost to secure assets.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPDvcG9Zw6MJ2iVPOPpht5y6Eg0mjviNNR0_PXW1tOirqUohcSjZtrD5CfbUCddDJ9ryjllMbIqtjAz-mx-1RUbzefqyasQ7nDGMgWFIkRstEcPNkR9JNk8UWIbhx0eOluM6Yg7b87RnER/s1600-h/Lanka.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266473768960399234" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 158px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPDvcG9Zw6MJ2iVPOPpht5y6Eg0mjviNNR0_PXW1tOirqUohcSjZtrD5CfbUCddDJ9ryjllMbIqtjAz-mx-1RUbzefqyasQ7nDGMgWFIkRstEcPNkR9JNk8UWIbhx0eOluM6Yg7b87RnER/s200/Lanka.png" border="0" /></a>So there has to have a solution to improve our ability to detect these airborne targets. In this regards we may have to consider a option of some kind of a Lightweight Early Warning Radar Web (let’s called it “Security-Web” hereafter) which can effectively cover the whole island. This newly proposed Security-Web has to be a man-portable, and will have that human touch to make it more accurate. It will be highly mobile, but positioned to effectively cover the whole Island. As per my view point a solution of this nature may answer to some of the needs in our quest of finding a solution to this problem. Think about a cheap GPS panic device that most soldiers can carry. The device is configured to send two signals. One is to a centralized monitoring center to mark its position, and the other signal is to trigger all other devices to an alert mode. In the recent incident the ground soldiers of the FDL noticed these planes well over before it reaches Colombo. If we have enough units deployed to effectively cover the Island. Then the ones with this device can trigger signals immediately after they detect the airplane. As the signals reached the main control center, it will reveal its original position of which the plane last detected (via Global Positioning) on the map of Sri Lanka. As the Security-Web (let’s assume that each device is deployed at 1 km apart) is activated, the soldiers (or whoever the barer will be) will have their eyes on the sky looking for the plane and to effectively track it down. These signals will draw the moving path of this air craft. As this is having that human touch which most systems do not have, the accuracy will be higher. A simple mathematical formula can process the input data and adjust them to get pin point accuracy at the end. This will give accurate location coordinate/ moving path for an F-7 (radar range 30km) or a MI 24(radar rage 10 km), to gun down this enemy in timely manner. However in such an encounter the slower speed and low altitude of the zlin-143 is an advantage to TAF as it forces the fixed-wing (F-7) to constantly concentrate on ground avoidance. So as I said before I iterate and reiterate that my best choice against fixed-wing ZLIN is a Mi-24 helicopters (once we tracked the route we can deploy about 10 helicopters). In addition to this, we can improve our ground attack capabilities too, that is by mean of giving more training to the soldiers. In the end, if we go for a solution like this, the money we spend over a framework (infrastructure) like this will very well be paid back later as there will be many other businesses (related to GPS) that we can run on top of a framework like this in future.<br /><br />However, it is equally import to realize that new ideas won't become reality until for quite a sometime, so till that we need more and more quick fixes.<br /><br />In addition to the ones noted above a less expensive alternative include tethered balloons with good look-down radar and/or infra-red and electronic detection devices.<br /><br />We need to take immediate decisions to determine the weaponries and detection equipments that are required to regain control of our low-altitude air space. I envision three major equipment requirements as necessary to defeat the threat. They are:<br /><br />1. A high quality anti-aircraft gun<br />2. An "air-superiority" helicopter<br />3. A better performing low-altitude missile<br /><table><tbody><tr><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt6xvyXSP2skWkP1o-iSFheeoANXmzie7AKSSI1IMcbGhcQBonRCnHwxafFpoEEvmscT2g2f857AGdvFeETSk4cSBl45cKfyaeqBW0Km4BdMoG7ZGqgKh96m2myTiczD6Qd3ihY1WgT5J8/s1600-h/aa4.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266481188650794066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 125px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt6xvyXSP2skWkP1o-iSFheeoANXmzie7AKSSI1IMcbGhcQBonRCnHwxafFpoEEvmscT2g2f857AGdvFeETSk4cSBl45cKfyaeqBW0Km4BdMoG7ZGqgKh96m2myTiczD6Qd3ihY1WgT5J8/s200/aa4.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAKcyW26YoxkpR8re0UGyC8DKRzRLW1YSIn2DYrTyL9xpvru3nz_xsQgB0498VtSLZxdR2tDg8ohLPg-DriSSjmqqnd01lFpxhDMsIkny5qFuq9fFpI99dZgN-l2yizqxH8VK21UHn61dp/s1600-h/AA3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266481180024840930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 125px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAKcyW26YoxkpR8re0UGyC8DKRzRLW1YSIn2DYrTyL9xpvru3nz_xsQgB0498VtSLZxdR2tDg8ohLPg-DriSSjmqqnd01lFpxhDMsIkny5qFuq9fFpI99dZgN-l2yizqxH8VK21UHn61dp/s200/AA3.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiVtEy2Anq2oLQ5nAFHEIBI09mIm9o-uCgWxny2Vk0uXkwfdBoRzEpKnqBu65DrALnX9RyWUAQzjcBWA8dcMO94cOxQOYIRJtKRqTwVAzYrUe-6rUtbvnKk85iF-_kNAPZPIlGC7GJCAH-/s1600-h/AA2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266481179048962034" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 125px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiVtEy2Anq2oLQ5nAFHEIBI09mIm9o-uCgWxny2Vk0uXkwfdBoRzEpKnqBu65DrALnX9RyWUAQzjcBWA8dcMO94cOxQOYIRJtKRqTwVAzYrUe-6rUtbvnKk85iF-_kNAPZPIlGC7GJCAH-/s200/AA2.jpg" border="0" /></a></td><td><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBD0_BHiM0dgFLRpYBoU0IqtiuhNpu9-EWD-p03QoQ0E_1gKjfekxt-rXGU640bGTH7W8qDdXFeuhRffUtZI-zx33ziKje0dLcbX7XPOxRGiUZMk5kbSeW7teUxtONnBF2kOgjY_g5PAle/s1600-h/aag1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266481172032768722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 125px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBD0_BHiM0dgFLRpYBoU0IqtiuhNpu9-EWD-p03QoQ0E_1gKjfekxt-rXGU640bGTH7W8qDdXFeuhRffUtZI-zx33ziKje0dLcbX7XPOxRGiUZMk5kbSeW7teUxtONnBF2kOgjY_g5PAle/s200/aag1.jpg" border="0" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:78%;">Colombo Blackout - AA gun at work</span> </p>Unfortunately the money we spent here will be an utter waist if LTTE is having a Plan C to back their currently active Plan B as well.

In this attempt, they first did a destructive (? not sure) attack to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Mannar</span> military base to get the military eye focused on to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Mannar</span>, and then they sneak their way to the main target at Colombo. That sounds like a good plan.<br /><br />According to the media information, two bombs have fallen to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Thalladi</span>, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Mannar</span> where our Army base is located and then those two <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">LTTE</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">aircrafts</span> were headed toward President House while bombing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Kelanathissa</span> power plant on their way. This drama triggered the Colombo air defense system, which minimized the possible damages. However both of these <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">LTTE</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">aircrafts</span> were managed to sail their way back <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">safelyto</span> marked their 11<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">th</span> victorious air raid on our sky (Yes, it is a shame). This incident raised lots of questions and was an eye opener for public to question the accountability of our Air Marshal <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">WDRMJ</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Goonetileke</span>’s exclusive interview given below...<br /><br /><strong>Q</strong>: You are confident that the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">LTTE</span> air capability is no longer a threat to the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">SLAF</span>?<br /><strong>A</strong>: Yes we can say that we can deal with them effectively. Last time they came and dropped bombs in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">Weli</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">Oya</span>. That was the safest location they could reach and drop bombs and return.<br /><br /><strong>What is this Z-143 and who is <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">TAF</span> and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">SLAF</span></strong><br /><br />The Z-143 is a light aircraft, famous for pilot training. Its great flight characteristics and additional instruments make the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">ZLIN</span> easy to fly at night or (in) low visibility conditions. It is reported that Tamil Tiger Air Force (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24">TAF</span>) is having 3 or 4 modified versions of this <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25">aircrafts</span> (They have purchased them during the peace time with the help of either Norwegian “piece” makers or some <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26">NGOs</span>). Today <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27">TAF</span> has become the first terrorist outfit in the world to have an air force associate with them. In the field of general aviation, this aircraft is incompetent even competing with a much simpler and lighter <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">aircrafts</span> such as Cessna or Piper. However the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">Sri</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">Lankan</span> Air Force (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31">SLAF</span>), a much stronger rival, is struggling in big time to protect their air space against this enemy today.<br /><br />The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32">ZLIN</span> is an amazingly low grade flying machine (with Max. Speed ~ 267 km/h and Endurance ~ 5 hours and 10 minutes and Range with max fuel ~1000km). The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33">TAF</span> is using it to their maximum advantage while <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34">SLAF</span> is struggling to fight it with much more superior modern state of art technologies, weapons and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35">aircrafts</span>. They have aircraft such as F-7Gs (with Max. Speed ~ 2,175 km/h), Mi-24 (with Max. Speed ~ 335 km/h), <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36">Kefir</span> and MIG 21-27. It is said that Mi 24 has recently been upgraded with modern Israeli <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37">FLIR</span> and electronic warfare systems and radar, with fully functional helmet mounted target tracking systems, and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38">AAMs</span> as well. So with all these it is very interesting to analyze and see “why we cannot” and “how we can improve” on counter attacking these so called low flying tin-cans.<br /><br /><strong>What limitations <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39">SLAF</span> is having today</strong><br /><br /><strong>Systematic</strong> – It is said that <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40">SALF</span> needed to follow a lengthy/ time consuming approval process followed by a series of checkup before taking off an aircraft. This may not only delay the mission start but also earns time for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41">TAF</span> to go back and disappear themselves into the north jungles. The approval processes may have its reasons and I don’t have any questions having it for all general missions too. But the mission related to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42">TAF</span> is an exceptional one. Therefore that need some special adjustments and creative planning to improve our effectiveness against this enemy.</p><p><strong>Leadership</strong> – It is said that media can make a patriot out of an enemy or wise versa. However if the incompetency of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43">SLAF</span> leader is what putting everybody at risk today, then this will be our last chance to correct it. Because in the next time, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_44">LTTE</span> will make sure to do it right and the result of it may even be the end of this WAR.<br /><br /><strong>Equipment</strong> – The main weapons we have for air to air combat are F-7 (Chinese version of Mig 21) and the upgraded MI 24.<br /><br />The F-7 have a very basic radar system (the range is relatively shorter ~ 30 km) which makes it nearly impossible to find and attack a low flying aircraft at night. It just has only the “close air-to-air agile combat” ability. It does not have various other advance options to be effective in an Air-to-Air combat (simply it can attack another plane right in front of it). So to me, F-7 is not a effective weapon against <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_45">ZLIN</span>. It has to have some luck (or some extra-ordinary ability), for you to find / hit / destroy a low flying <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_46">zlin</span> in a dark night uisng an F-7.<br /><br />The MI-24 is relatively a better (radar coverage is ~ 10 km). However we may need to have at least 10-15 Mi 24 helicopters to increase the probability of finding the enemy in a random search. The way LTTE operate ZLIN will challenge the Mi-24 radar system as it may not detect a low flying air craft at a distance. But once engaged, a MI 24 has a better chance of destroying a ZLIN, with it advance weapons, low flying ability and slow speed, than a F-7.<br /><br /><strong>Analysis of the current situation?</strong><br /><br />If the government of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_47">Sri</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_48">Lanka</span> or our military hand is looking to buy more expensive weapons / advance aircraft to sail over this challenging enemy. I bet we will end up spending all our money yet <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_49">LTTE</span> will keep outsmarting us. We spent enough money over this already and none of those counter measures took, worked but became white elephants. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_50">SLAF</span> needs to understand that it is not about weapons but about smartness what matters here. I have no doubt that <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_51">ZLIN</span> is a very creative and innovative selection from TAF side. The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_52">LTTE</span> is keep on effectively outsmarting <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_53">SLAF</span> over and over with their "kurumbatti machine" (name is as per our mad, uneducated media). But <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_54">SLAF</span> is still not getting it, that is the problem (for me). </p><p>So buying new euipment will encourage the enemy to be more advanced next time. It will be easier to beat him in the current context, by smartly closing and openning loop holes in the current system, than in a whole new context. Today, SLAF is trying to change the pillow cover to cure thier eye ache (or whatever).</p><p>Right now there is a high demand to install a 3d radar system to fight against this tiny enemy. I think we needs at least 4 radars (there are some which can trace up to 90 km) to cover up the whole island. I am not sure how costly they are, or how messy their radar images can be, but to me they look very expensive (unnecessarily). In the recent incident the ground soldiers of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_55">FDL</span> noticed these planes well over before it reaches Colombo, so then we have detected the planes. Then, why we need a much more expensive radar system, is it just to trace the planes? Again what if <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_56">LTTE</span> may have fixed Radar J<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_57">ammer</span> already? Again what <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_58">guarantee</span> we have to say that <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_59">LTTE</span> can't destroy the radar units via a ground attack? Let’s assume that we have the radar system in place, but still a radar cannot gun down a plane? Can it? It is like having the Plan-B, without the Plan-A. </p><p>From the other hand, it can be the world's most expensive and sophisticated radar system. We can have radars also mounted along the costal line (range is ~3km? or limited). But to effectively track a low flying aircraft with a radar system is not practical. It is given that the earth’s sphere shape and the high land diversity of Sri Lanka (rivers, mountains etc). </p><p>I know that all tall building in Colombo is having cheap anti aircraft guns mounted now. But they seem to be capable of effectively “missing” the target all the time. So anti aircraft guns (we have) are not a very good option to fight with ZLIN either. I hate to say this, this ENEMY IS A SMART ONE and if you are to beat him, WE HAVE TO OUTSMART HIM. It is a chess game, no matter how many times you change the board, if you are not smart enough, then you will ended up losing the game. In this case buying more equipment is like changing the board.<br /><br />I think it requires a combine effort and a effective <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_61">utilization</span> of current resources to bring down this tiny master. I am not a military expert but these are my two cents.. </p><ul><li>-If they plan well, outsmart them with superior plans </li><li>-If we cannot break into their intelligent secrets, break into them by outsmarting them.</li><li>-If our <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_62">LRRP</span> cannot penetrate into <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_63">Kilinochchi</span>, penetrate into it by outsmarting them.</li><li>-If they manage to hide their <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_64">aircrafts</span>, reveal them by outsmarting them.</li><li>-If they manage to sneak their way to Colombo, outsmart them by catching them.</li><li>-If they have radar <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_65">jammers</span> to find their way, outsmart them by blocking their ways.</li><li>-If you cannot bribe Tamils, outsmart them by bribing them</li></ul><p>It is only by outsmarting our enemy that we can win here and not by buying new weapons or equipments. If you choose the second, then we can delay the next attack but won't be able to prevent it. </p><p>In my mind our first goal has to be to locate the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_66">ZLIN </span>base. We don’t have to wait till they attack again to do that? Today the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_67">LTTE</span> activities are limited to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_68">killinochchi</span>, which is a 625 square kilometers area. It is just 25 Km wide land area. It cannot be that hard, given the things we did before (SLAF look at SLA). Unfortunately we are not focusing on doing that. We always try to spend more money over defending us against <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_69">ZLIN </span>but do little over offending TAF.<br /><br />Enough is enough and this is the time to stand tall ..</p>FUTURE TECHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14645101029700176249noreply@blogger.com6
