A Sri Lankan Mix

With an ethnic conflict in full scale and misunderstanding and miscommunications between races and religions I think its time for me to add some fuel to the fire. The following is not always subscribed by me but is generally known to the general public and or is endorsed by most Sri Lankans.



"Sinhalese people have a very short term memory"


"There is an abundance of Tamils in the IT industry"


"Tamils are loyal"


"Kanyan's hate southerners"


"Southerners hate Kandyan's"


I'm not sure about how this goes but there is something to do with a river and crap like that but the bottom line is Kanday's say that they would not even keep Cat from the south.


"Never trust a Muslim they will cheat you"


"Tamils make good accountants"


"Sinhalese are ungrateful people"


"Southerners are industrious and cunning"


"Kanyan's are lazy farmers who like to sleep and kill someone now and then"


"Careful when you do business with a Muslim"


"Jaffna Tamil's Hate Upcountry Tamils"


"Sinhalese don't like to see their neighbours prosper"


"Muslim men fuck Sinhalese Women before they get married to a nice conservative Muslim woman who they will keep covered from head to toe"


"Catholics believe their Religion offers salvation and they pray to one true God"


"Muslims believe they should do everything to protect their Religion that offers them salvation and they pray to one true God'


"A lotta Buddhist have got their wires crossed and think they pray to a God"


"Hindu's pray to their Gods and well they generally keep to themselves"


There are things said about Burghers as well but I don't recall right now so can't put it down, oh but this I remember.


"Burgher women are easy"


Obviously Sri Lanka a land like no other. With such a diverse background do you ever think there will be peach here? The best anyone can hope for me thinks is that this religion crap gets thrown out the window and they make it a crime to be of any one race. Then we just become Sri Lankans. If not, given my social observation over the last decade or so nothing will change. Mistrust between the Sinhalese and Tamils will exist. I've seen it on both sides. The Muslims will start asking for their own part of the country and well The Buddhist will go after Catholics and start another war.


People cannot get along in this country that’s the long and short of it. It is generally understood that burghers have left Sri Lanka because they can't get along with the Sinhalese. They are more hippie type so its an easy life or a really fucked up life that they lead.


A true combination for a grand screw up.


The truth must be spoken and if anyone thinks that this is not the perception most in this country have please do feel free to let me know. I personally have made observations and there are some truths that cannot be changed but I don't hold it against anyone for being born into any race or religion I believe that everyone deserves an equal chance to prove themselves and I honestly hope maybe people will get past this.. that is if it is if the impossible is possible.
