Deiyo SAARCi

SAARC is coming to Colombo and it seems like the people are getting battered from it just like the Tsunami. I hear that the entire city center is going to be closed. And to add to that they are driving people out of their houses. Certain people have been asked to vacaste their houses for seven days while the others who were living in illegal tenaments have had their houses destroyed. This whole SAARC fiasco is making the life of the average person who is trying to make a living in this torrid country even more trying than what it is.
I hate to imagine what will happen when the conference is actually taking place. I think it might be best if we just declare five days of holidays and close businesses. Even if we come to office we will not be able to move.
What really gets my goat is the high handed manner the government is setting about bullying the very people who voted them in. Specially asking all those who had booked functions in the hotels to cancel or postpone them I thought was a very callous and crude thing to do. Surely they knew well in advance when the SAARC conference was happenning at least two years back. They could have informed the hotel at that point which wouldnt have caused as much pain. Well it just shows what a bunch of Morons these idiots are.
If I had the choice and the courage I would put up a big banner from a building on the Airport road so all the delegates could see it and it would say SAARC DELEGATES YOU ARE NOT WELCOME IN SRI LANKA.
