As a responsible citizen of my country I have never let go of any of my duties or obligations towards the government. I have been paying taxes, filing returns annually and been voting in every election. It hurts to see that the same is not being reciprocated by the government. Leave alone the recognition for doing these duties without cribbing. I am extremely displeased with the way the governments of the world are reacting towards the Sri Lankan issue. They are observing a very unhealthy silence that could affect the world peace tomorrow. When the Kashmir issue came up the whole world was silent. When the LTTE issue is havocking lives in Sri Lanka the world is still quiet.
Tomorrow there will be an issue worse than this and still the so called ‘developed nations’ will mind their own business. There is no point in simply giving worthless statements through the media. What kind of a world are we living in? There should be a basic human emotion that runs in us right? Well, there are some people who always think that as long as their stomach is fed and there is no problem for them they would not get into all this. But my question is what if that person was born and brought up in such a war zone? Why don’t people put themselves in the shoes of those living in such a disastrous place? These questions are often left unanswered! Let us all at least spend about two minutes of our time thinking about this. We cannot wait for the change because we are the change! Be healthy do good work.
