Danny,
You are a very small person with a very shallow mind
or you just dont
have a clue of economics.
Governments do sell property, whether it be land,
buildings or other
natural resources for a
nominal value as long it belives in the business plan
presented and
expects economic gains in the
future through employment, tax revenue and growth in
the GDP in
general.
So the question of which race or religion the property
was sold to is
not at issue.
What is the logic in state holding land and doing
nothing while the
unemployment rate in the
country if this high?

These rascals are systematically looting the country

just watching and trying
to justify their behviour.
They have infiltrated the UNP through Senarath
Kapukotuwa and put all

choice in prominent positions so that some day they
will be able to
milk the country dry.
They have done the same thing with the other political
parties as well.
They respecify tender specifications and inflate the
cost and pocket
billions.
Maybe that's why Thondaman flies every week to Tamil

I normally do not respond when I see something way out

am going to make an
exception in your case, as I feel trying to educate a
ignorent person
is a social responsibility.
For your information a coolie works for his living and
earns a honest
days wage. He or she is a
asset to the society as they do the work many do not
want to do. What I
am trying to say is a
coolie has more honour and my respect, than a bigot
like you, who is a
cancer to the society.
Sri-Lanka can be proud that it has a high literacy

Hello all,
This is my first post on this website, although I have
been following
the various threads for
some time.
For a couple of weeks now, the quality of discussion
has improved
significantly from the usual
Thamil/Sinhala bashing to (somewhat) structured
arguements, and hence I
thought I'd chip in my
two cents worth from time to time.
This thread started by Danny is particularly
interesting because he
raises a very valid point
about the Maharajas. Before anybody flames me about
Thamil /Sinhalese
biases, I should like to
point out that that I have no interntion to bring
races/religion into
this discussion - whether
it be a Maharajah, a Sumathipala, a Ratwatte, a
Bandaranayake...I don't
care!
I'll just share with you some information on the
Maharajas that you
would not come across in the
public print. Anandan Arumugam is absolutely correct
when he mentions
that one of the Maharajas
was in fact personal assistant to CBK. Not long after
CBK came to
power, this Maharajah lady
enterred into her trust very quickly by being a 'good
friend'. She was
the one responsible for
ensuring CBK was 'presentable', doing her make-overs,
chosing her saris
and make up, and above
all, being her confidante on personal matters. CBK had
huge trust in
her, and many people close
to her realised that the sophisticated Maharajah lady
was up to no
good. I believe she used CBK
to fill up the Maharajah coffers, and it took some
time for CBK to
realise what exactly was going
on - but once it did, the sophisticated Maharajah lady
was given the
boot! Even now, we don't
hear very much about the Maharajahs. But I can assure
you, about 5
years ago, everywhere you went
in Colombo the Maharajah emipire was the talk of the
town. Now, not a
whisper - like that have
dissapeared into thin air. A wish to keep a low
profile? I think so!
SLpatriot posted October 05, 2004 11:04 AM
I personally have very different opinions regarding
the Maharaja group.
Danny you need to back up
your claims with better evidence. You cannot just tell
me that
maharaja's are robbers and expect
me to believe it. Those are just words. As for Tcups
claim of
Maharaja's wife stealing from
coffers, i don't know about this. But even if it is
true, that would be
a fault with that
particular individual lady and should not be
attributed to the
organization as a whole.
I personally think the maharaja group has done a lot
for the country.
Their news coverage is the
most professional and unbiased in sri lanka. They own
several tv
stations and radio stations,
setting an example as good bussiness people. They
pioneered much of
what we take for granted
today in sri lanka.
It is obvious that the maharajas are hated by
chandrika since they are
strong UNP supporters. THe
UNP and maharajas have worked hand in hand in
enhancing the economy and
introducing new projects.
However, CBK would probably bring her personal issues
into this and use
petty lies to convince
people that the maharajas are the biggest robbers and
such.
And by the way, i think my information is credible
since i have many
contacts who work at a high
level with the maharaja group.
wondermyfoot posted October 05, 2004 03:17 PM
Hi Danny,
I do understand your frustration and it seems to be
like this for
everyone. We cannot blame one
party or one particular group for this. Corruption is
in our blood we
cannot say no for it. We
all know very well and we used it for our favour. (If
you are living in
Srilanka) Be honest with
yourself and ask when did you use or abuse the system
last? Speeding OR
jumping queue OR any
other time. (Even to get employment)
Whether you like it or not this corruption business is
going to be here
for long time and so
people are going to use it. People have not had any
integrity or
self-respect. Why go to
individual but take it as a whole country, Srilanka it
is a Begger’s
paradise.
Every party comes to the power thinks where they going
to get loan
from. So the people. Easy
money I will take it any time. TV, Hifi, video camera,
do not mention
the latest mobile phones.
We have to buy all of it so our salary is not enough
so what are
suggesting us to do? If you are
living in Srilanka, you know the current price for the
essential
products, so what are you
telling. I could only say one thing here that Morden
computer man or
woman thinks all this will
be over if you RE BOOT it. It will not work for real
life and it is not
that easy to demolish it
either. You say it terrorism, corruption, drugs,
protholes, child
abuses, slavery name any thing
we can deliver from srilanka so what is the point of
talking about
Maharaja and others. At least
they are using the system to get rich and wealth. Same
time they are
providing employment for
thousands. Whose fault is that? Some one is getting it
so they are
providing it. It is easy as it
is. I know you all are not serious.
Estate Tamils are the back bone for our economy. They
are honest, hard
working and harmless
people even on this corrupted paradise... (Not the
politicians and
business people)
Some one has to come out, and name, and shame this
corrupted people.
(We would not have any
politicians left then. (Like t.u.l.f))However,
Whoooooooooooo is going
to do it.

Hi Danny,
I have not missed your point and I am trying to
explain to you. Here in
Srilanka if you are a
wealthy man/woman you can do whatever you like to do.
No one ask
question or even complain (call
it is a very free country). You will gain power and
people will go
along with you and agree 100%
even their inner mind say no. Therefore, if you are a
poor man/woman
even you got a brilliant
business idea you will not able to come up or success
on your venture.
They will destroy or you
will not get any business because you cannot pay money
to these
bloodsuckers. Corruption is in
high and people blame it on the war. It has been the
slogan for the
politicians and others too.
Danny do you have any plan to stop all this? I am very
interesting to
know. I will give my full
support to you. I am not jealous or racist about
success people same
time I do not agree that
they can be success by any mean (Buying tenders or

And, subsequently, the gift - Wellawatte Spinning and

When J R was in power, they had a house opposite his (
I was a

Then there was talk of buying Premadasa a house?
Then they shifted from Bankshall Street (leaving
behind their Kovil and

Street (Right behind Temple Trees).
They have a house near the P.M's Office as well.
When Gamini Dissanayake was running for Prez, they had

Do they have property near CBK, Ranil and Karu as well

I am very surprised that the Sunday Leader, renowned
for it's practices
of unearthing unsavoury
details on politicians, business people, and their
corrupt deals, has
not picked up (in their
usual detail) on this Maharajah organisation. (Having
said that, their
style of reporting,
although extremely informative, in usually in bad
taste - maybe not
many would agree with me on
this point).
I did a quick search on Google and found some evidence
on the Maharaja
lady and her huge
influence on the President, but not very much about
what became of her
after she was kicked out
CBK's 'favourite list'.
But I suppose all this is politics...CBK has been
helped financially by
the Maharajah in return
for special favours - this happens all the time, not
only in SL. But
the whole CBK / Maharajah
relationship fell apart due to, in my opinion, one
thing. Once the
public started getting wind of
the fact that the Maharajas were making full use of
the President to
further their business
opportunities, CBK could no longer afford to lose face
with her voters.
It was becoming quite
apparent that CBK was favouring the Maharajah
organisation over other
aspirants on business
deals, and before the kettle got too hot, decided it
was time to sever
all ties with them. Just
my two cents worth...
I have not heard of the lady being arrested and then
pardoned (after
she went to kataragama??)
but then again, I have not seen very much at all
concerning the
Maharajas in general for the last
few years.

Alas, I have nothing more to add concerning the

The thing is, they have been keeping a very low
profile over the last
couple of years, and it does not help that since they
were in the
limelight back in the mid-nineties, I have been living
abroad and thus
not been able to hear any gossip.
Having said that, simply the fact that The Sunday
Leader has not dug up
any stories on them recently leads me to believe that
they are not up
to anything out of the ordinary.
However, have any of you heard about the Cooke family?
Apparently, very

car...rather kitch, no? Just a funny thought...
