        It's a dictatorship in disguise if no one has noticed. If it is democracy then it's just for the sinhala ppl not us tamils.

        Come back to reality. Ranil-Maithri government was elected by the minorities, not by the Sinhalese. While it's a good thing that minorities had the chance to represent themselves, a typical democracy doesn't favour minorities when the politicians are useless.

        While thats true in our case we only chose what we thought was the lesser evil but we were so wrong, it was the other side of the same double-edged sword that struck us in the 1st place.

        Not really. You can at least talk about it, protest, complain and hell you could even insult the president for incompetence just like in a normal democracy. It's better than not being able to do all of that.

        True but its that when ever we protest there's a Cid persons video taping and taking pictures of the ppl and they intimidate them later or worse kill them even worse is make them disappear.
