05UndatedThe Rajapaksa regime in Sri Lanka, knows exactly how the political bluff works and uses it to spread lies among the people. What he has done to this country is assassinate the dignity and respect of good citizens while centralising everything into himself and his family members. His ego may lead him to think that it will last forever so to keep his dream alive he will not hesitate to eliminate the person who questions this.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
06UndatedAll it takes is common sense to understand that the Rajapaksa administration has vandalised every layer of the country’s resources to get rid of political obstacles while minimising the space available to facilitate the sharing of authentic political dissent. At the same time the opposition appears to be caged.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗

08UndatedWe as human beings need freedom, and justice, and a true cause to engage in to make life meaningful. This basic and comprehensive dream cannot be allowed to be shattered under any circumstances; if it starts shattering then the resistance will arise.

It will guide us in our search for a secure place to enjoy personal liberties.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗

10UndatedThe government of Pakistan is yet to understand that the insurgency is not the disease but the symptoms of the disease. If the government really needs to cure the crisis in the area, then it must engage in genuine treatment procedure rather than engage in ad hoc solutions that go under the motto: picked up, killed, and dumped. Kidnapping the target and dumping his or her bullet riddled and tortured corpse in a public place to scare the people in the area is a military strategy which aims to provide a lesson to those who still retain seeds of resistance. If this is the only solution that the government is capable of then it will have to commit genocide against the people of Balochistan so that it can continue to steal their natural resources and have total control of the province.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗

13UndatedWe are not subjects of an autocratic King, but are citizens of the country contributing to the advancement of our people who pay taxes out of their hard earned income.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
14UndatedWe are citizens who love to fake life than dig deep into our reality to discover the truth and make amends and correct our own wrongdoings, because we are reluctant to learn from our past.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
15UndatedWe do not have to dig deep into history to understand the reality. The examples of Saddam Hussain, who was executed after a sham trial and the case of Muammar Gaddafi, who killed after surrendering in broad daylight, have given enough factual reality to understand the painful truth.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
16UndatedWhat we can see in most societies is the gravity of suffering, tears of sorrow and nightmares of hopelessness.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
17UndatedMr. President; give me back my country. Allow people to have their humanity. If you do not do this, history will never absolve you!Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗

20UndatedBalochistan was refused legitimacy for its nationhood with the creation of Pakistan due to the geographical location and the rich natural resources. The story would have been completely different if this has been a barren land.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
21UndatedTrump is a counter-product of the traditional political scheme.Nilantha Ilangamuwa / quote ↗
