Geneva anti-Lanka resolution: LTTE lobbyists at work in Australia
Separatist activists and LTTE supporters are attempting to lobby support from federal Parliamentarians in Australia into making a statement and to pressurize the UNHRC to take action against Sri Lanka. These activists are trying to mislead politicians across the globe.
“We want to explain to the federal Parliamentarians, the actual situation about Sri Lanka. After the 30 year war, how the government of Sri Lanka is dealing with resettlement and reconciliation, how it was affected by terrorism and how it has defeated terrorism. We are countering false propaganda,” said Nagesha Wickramasuriya, media spokesperson for Sri Lankan Australians in Melbourne.
Wickramasuriya also added that Sri Lanka High Commissioner in Australia, former Navy Commander Thisara Samarasinghe knows the situation and how terrorism was defeated. Professor Rohan Gunaratne is also supporting the cause of Sri Lankan Australians in Melbourne and lending invaluable assistance.
Wickramasuriya also said that there are terrorist elements posing as human rights activists.
These elements have also started a fund raising campaign. One dollar per week. The amount of money they are collecting annually is staggering. “There is a misconception amongst some Sri Lankans that the LTTE have been finished. But internationally they are there in a big way. They have been defeated militarily but their activists are around the world so the terrorist problem is not over. They are active in American, Canada, France, London and even in Australia,” said Wickramasuriya.

Wonder what these clowns are upto?
The SL High Commissioner is under investigation by the Australian Police for alleged war crimes.
The Australian Citizen, Mr P Kohonna is already facing war crime charges in the Hague.
Prof Gunaratne is a self seeking “professional” who copies from Tamil websites and compiles the clippings into a book on “Terrorism”.
The Tamil woman, Tamara Kunanayakam, SL Rep in the UNHRC is doing a far better job that all these clowns in Australia and in Geneva, put together.
Pottu Amman,
It is “The Sri lankan woman” Tamara…., there is no need for narrow tamil racism any more. That racist concept is only left for primitives who worship god’s private parts.
World has moved on, leaving primitives behind. It is now upto the primitives to join the new world, or to live in the dark jungles eating human flesh.
Also there is no need for lies, which will show you to the world as a moron and a fool. Lies are a way of culture of primitives. None of the people you mentioned in your crap are being investigated by anybody. Your lies will give you the “primitive” status sooner than you think.
Tamara Kunanayakam is a tamil woman and we are extremely proud of her. The yeoman service she does for the Nation is appreciated by the tamil community. I wonder the sinhala clowns have the same level of appreciation.
Thank you for relating my name to that of LTT’s 2nd in command. It is indeed a great privilege; I simply cannot aspire to reach that position. I am honoured by your (erroneous) conclusion. Thanks Manjula.
The name Pouman is derived from the Maouri word “Pounamu” which means “treasured rock” in the Maouri language. The name “Pounamu” is common in Maori indigenous tribes. I suspect the name Pouman in Sri Lanka comes from the inter-relationship between the Veddah tribes and indigenous tribes in the South Pacific.
Kumari is a comon name in Maori tribes. “Badaginnie” (meaning hunger in Sinhalese) is the name of a village in Australia’s Victoria State. They all point to tribal inter-relationships.
