Cecil was drawing on the children\u2019s game of using \u201cKos Kola\u201d [ Jak leaves] as \u2018play money\u2019 to alert the audience that printed paper currency has no intrinsic value, except acceptance by those transacting business with such currency that each currency note has the value printed on its face<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 577.418px;\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 327px;\" valign=\"top\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Cecil focuses on how the USA used the fact that in the Second World War they saved the Allies from defeat at the hands of the German Forces to force the lesser privileged countries to accept the U$ as the currency for all their international trade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The drama caters to the visual entertainment but carries a serious message in the dialogue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The drama opens with \u2018Siriyawathie\u2019 being in a confused state as a result of a coconut falling on her head. Seeing Siriyawathie in her bemused state, Chin makes an approach to resume a previous sensual relationship but is thwarted by the amnesia caused by the coconut falling on her head.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The intended allegory is for the audience to conclude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">At this stage Bharathi arrives and comments on Siriyawathie\u2019s apparent state of confusion. Bharathie rules out Chin\u2019s suggestion of \u2018jump starting\u2019 the lost memory by dropping another coconut on Siryawathie\u2019s head. He suggests reminding Siriyawathie of the matters she had forgotten<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 237.418px;\" align=\"center\" valign=\"top\"><strong>Chin Chun Chan\u2019 [China]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>[Prasana Samapth Jayaweera<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-2.gif\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20461\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"149\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bharathi\u2019 [India] Bharathi\u2019 [India] [Sunil de Silva]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-3.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20462\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-3.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"149\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Chin points out her house and reminds her that she is a widow with three children. Bharati shows the tear drop shape isle which her home. Chin shows her the extensive land mass, which is China and explains that he has a large family and he has instructed them on the \u2018one child\u2019 policy, but that his family is engaged in prolific manufacture of exportable goods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Bharathie introduces himself as Siriyawathie\u2019s closest neighbour with a large family and points to a large extent of land occupied by Engalaanti, as a wealthy woman.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Siriyawathie\u2019s recognition of Engalaanthi prompts Chin to remark that her memory appears to be recovering from the haze reminds her that Engalaanthi\u2019e father had been in occupation of Siriyawathie\u2019s land, and proceeds to narrate how moustached Hitilara had attempted to capture Siriyawathie\u2019s land when Bharati chips in that they were fighting a losing battle till Uncle Sam intervened to gather them together and that defeated Hitilara. Bharathie then explains that they were all grateful to Uncle Sam and started to accept him as their leader<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The next scene \u2018flashes back\u2019 a technique adopted by Cecil to demonstrate how the USA used the leadership role earned by their significant contribution to the Allied victory to combine with England and ensure economic dominance\u2019 The modality of the operation was to first wean away from Gold Standard and the 1944 Bretton Woods Agreement, to adroitly have the International Exchange Rates pegged to the U$ and made the U$ a global currency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Uncle Sam\u2019 [The USA ] &#8211; [Prematilaka Ranasinghe] and ENG Laanti\u2019 [England] [Mihiri Fernando]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-4.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-20463\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-4.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"237\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-5.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-20464\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/dram-5.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"236\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Uncle Sam sums up the post World War economic scenario where China manufactured goods in excessive quantities and obtained the natural rubber required for their industry by bartering their excess rice for rubber from Sri Lanka, Uncle Sam prohibits barter and decrees that U$ be the currency for all international trade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Cecil draws attention to the growing trend for the USA to move away from a $ backed with a gold standard to mere printed currency \u2013in other words of no more intrinsic value than a \u201cKos Kolaya\u201d [a Jak leaf] falling from a tree with no effort required on their part, to acquire goods and services created by the less privileged countries with their hard labour and sacrifice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The impact of this deal is worsened when England seduced by U$ into the US embrace, then uses the U$ provided by the USA to lend money to Sri Lanka and set off Sri Lankan garments, tea rubber and coconut in lieu of interest and not in reduction of the loan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The scene moves to Sri Lanka seeking assistance for losses caused by the tsunami, dengue, floods and landslides. China and India come to Sri Lanka\u2019s aid and we find a deflection to the \u2018parippu\u2019 air drop by India in 1987. The U$ makes a trivial contribution but demands that their assistance be given indelible acknowledgement.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"> Like in all evil designed strategies, Uncle Sam realises that the US is purchasing enormous quantity of Chinese goods has placed a dangerous pile of U$ under the control of China. U$ sufficient to take over the US economy and engineers a plot with England to convince China that Sri Lanka has designs on acquiring China and conversely that China has designs on Sri Lanka. The US provides China with weapons and England supplies guns to Sri Lanka for the purpose of fighting with each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">India intervenes to point out the absurdity of China accepting that Sri Lanka with its tiny population would pose a threat to the territorial integrity of China.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Cecil winds up with a comical twist, where Sri Lanka proposes that Sri Lanka, China and India transact business using each other\u2019s currency and rejecting the U$.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">This provides the punch line of Chin and Bharati each independently concluding that another coconut has fallen on Siriyawathie\u2019s head.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:
