Finding a long-term solution is a key issue in next week's parliamentary elections.
The current government says it wants to devolve power to Tamil regions. But the former president, Mahinda Rajapaksa, is warning that would be a disaster.
well in next week's elections
Mr Rajapaksa told me he was convinced that devolving power could lead to Sri Lanka splitting in two. He said he would do everything in his power to stop that happening.
But he is not popular in Tamil regions. He led the country in the last years of the war, when both sides committed appalling violations of human rights.
Could conflict resume?
The Tamil National Alliance party's spokesman, Suresh Premachandran told me he thought a return to armed struggle was a real possibility. "Who knows what might happen if Tamils aren't accorded the same rights as other citizens?" he asked.
Is that a threat? "It is not a threat," he said calmly. "Maybe in the future it might be a reality."
That is a frightening thought for a country that is only just beginning to recover from a 26-year-long civil war.

All sounds a bit "lefty" to me Desire!!

Something you would see in ABC / Fairfax press.

What do you expect? Country has come out of a long civil war with a nasty conclusion. There will be a significant period of adjustment - always is! But life will go on (and investment will form a significant part of this) and the chances of another "uprising"? Buckley"s and none!

Pls DYOR and all IMOO!
