JVP, LTTE instrumental for economic crisis: S.M. Chandrasena
Colombo, March 22 (Daily Mirror)- The actions of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) and the LTTE were the main instrumental factors for the current economic crisis, former Minister S.M. Chandrasena said.
He told reporters that if the destruction of property and lives caused by the JVP and the LTTE was evaluated, it would be clear that their actions must have led to the crisis situation the country was facing today.
He said the JVP is now trying to show the country that they are good people by pointing fingers at others for the bankruptcy.

Just the Direct loss to the economy was 200 Billion USD by the ethnic conflict. The rebellions in the south caused by extream left inflicted USD 50 Billion loss on the country. This is according to a former Indian ambassador to Sri Lanka who served during the conflict.

Partly true. But we had since recovered. Until the Rajapakses came on the scene and robbed the place left, right and centre. And now they are all back to further ruin our country. Like the wicked fairy in Sleeping Beauty.

You are certainly a one not to realise the truth of thst statement. JVP was created to disrupt the economy and country. They did that for so many years and they will continue to do so as long as idiots like you think that they can do a better job.

The economic destruction is mainly due to lack of competent, bold and visionary leadership but just looking after their self interests. This has been since independence and caused deterioration in all sectors finally hitting a big bang on the economy

Thank GOD he is a former Minister, as he is CLEARLY HALUCINATING. Let us NOT go there Mr. Chandrasena as it is a well known fact around the world as to those responsible for bringing the Country down to its knees, just go READ and DIGEST what the SUPREME COURT has come up with.

Hope he understands that during the long war the country was not bankrupt and only after the war ended the country went bankrupt. Although long term implications are there, the contributions of our politicians are not to be ignored. Also JVP and the LTTE are symptoms of wider issues. However, in all these mess the politicians seem still doing well.

This is a correct statement but their actions were caused by JR and Premadasa governments. JVP was created for instigating troubles whenever foreign powers wanted to control Sri lanka. The damage caused by JVP and LTTE is much bigger than any amount allegedly stolen by Rajapakshas which has never been proven by anyone sofar. Rajapakshas were responsible for mismanagement however.

@Sanath, prove your point in the courts of law when your brothers party take power. Otherwise what you do is to blame someone for your own weaknesses.

Well! Both parties are ‘terrorist’ organizations! No doubt! One is international other is home grown! Main objective of terrorists are to jeopardize nations and economies and disrupt normal life. At least after 2009- one party is restricted to overseas shows and annual commemoration. The other keeps jeopardizing normal life in every aspect from education to essential services upto now - Shame!

Hey Sena, The economic crisis started 75 years ago !!! Lankans only cultivating Paddy and it's not even enough for local consumption. The real economic debacle started when SL government started borrowing at an alarming rate. The Sovereign Bond issues put the final nail in the coffin. Just to give you an idea the sovereign bonds issued with 6.875% interest rate. just comparing LIBOR less than 3% and American bonds coupon rate also Less than 3% so the regional Pension Fund managers parked their fund money in government guaranteed high yielding (More than double the market rates) SL Sovereign Bonds. The end result, SL went bankrupt!! Sena, the government borrowed way way too much money then government didn't and couldn't payback THOSE DEBT.

Those who lent us on these Sovereign Bonds too should have assessed the ability of the GOSL to repay them back before buying them. It was a risk they took and now the GOSL can hold those payments.

Sri Lanka gives too much importance to politicians and what they say and too little to what educated people have to say.But if you speak to a parent they will all say they want their children to get an education and be a doctor accountant lawyer scientist whatever.We send them to the best schools we can afford.And then when they graduate we listen not to them but to uneducated greedy politicians who ruin the country.How crazy is that

In 1983 who burned down businesses in Colombo, Jaffna and elsewhere? When people elect hooligans to top posts they take fire to burn, burn and loot all to take the country to bankruptcy.

SL is not an egalitarian society like Australia NZ no equality of opportunity, policies not national, always favoured one section against the other, due to bad leadership, led to terrorism on both sides among Sinhalese and Tamils, current crisis, bringing country to bankruptcy due to mismanagement by govts in recent times.PRESENT situation is SL is in danger of LOSING Its SOVEREIGNTY becoming a puppet of foreign powers.DONT analyse the past view them as stupid distractions , concentrate on the road ahead in FRONT of you otherwise All Will Be Lost

This lunatic comment shows that one by one the SLPP cronies are also getting frantic by the day and going insane. All of them are trying to blame everybody else except themselves for their own downfall. BR said it was the fault of the Peoples mandate that caused it while this guy is trying to pin it on the past LTTE and JVP, while other Phottuwa gang blame previous Govts and overseas influence! Look forward to more absurdity from them in time to come.
