\u00a0SRI LANKA CAN \u00a0QUICKLY BOUNCE BACK IF SRI LANKANS WANT IT \u2013 by <\/strong>N.S.Venkataraman<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

\"Sri<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka has a population of\u00a0\u00a0 slightly more than 22 million.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Sri Lanka’s population is reported to have an adult literacy rate of\u00a0 more than \u00a092 percent\u00a0, which is above average by world and regional standards. Computer literacy is more than 30\u00a0 percent and website users\u00a0 are\u00a0 reported to be more than 32\u00a0 percent of the population.\u00a0 Certainly, Sri Lankan society\u00a0 can be considered as .well informed one , as education plays a major part in the life and culture of\u00a0 Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n

In such circumstances, people around the world , who have knowledge about Sri Lanka\u2019s history, culture and tradition , are taken aback to see the type of violence that is now sweeping the country , \u00a0which have made many people wonder as to how Sri Lanka would come out of the present crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent years, Sri Lanka has considerably suffered due to a sort of civil war launched by Tamil separatists. The country\u2019s leadership has somehow defeated he separatist forces and everyone thought that Sri Lanka would move on to regain \u00a0it\u2019s glory and reach greater heights.<\/span><\/p>\n

The economic crisis that happened in Sri Lanka in the post pandemic period has overwhelmed the country. While there have been a lot of discussions about the causes that led to the economic crisis and there is no need to do apost mortem now, what is necessary at present is to see how the Sri Lankan government and Sri Lankan people living in Sri Lanka and abroad would work out a revival path.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Obviously, the government leadership in Sri Lanka has failed to anticipate the problems\u00a0 and do adequate forward planning to solve the impending economic crisis. In such a\u00a0 scenario, Sri Lankan people are disappointed about the performance of the government.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the present economic crisis has become a political crisis with more discussion in\u00a0 the media \u00a0\u00a0and amongst politicians about the political scenario rather than \u00a0\u00a0the economic scenario.<\/span><\/p>\n

The inept handling by the government in the wake of\u00a0 the economic crisis \u00a0has encouraged the negative forces in Sri Lanka to\u00a0 unleash violence and destroy property .\u00a0 The leaders of political parties in Sri Lanka , whether belonging to the ruling party or opposition party, \u00a0have conducted themselves without foresight and with short sightedness and \u00a0have encouraged hate politics rather than \u00a0\u00a0adopting a cooperative attitude to put their heads together and find a solution.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vituperative language used by opposition party leaders\u00a0\u00a0 have certainly contributed to a vicious climate , when the opposition party leaders themselves have no tangible solutions to offer to solve the economic crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n

All said and done, one can say that leaders of all political parties in Sri Lanka including the ruling and opposition parties are responsible for creating such\u00a0 violent and disturbed conditions and in the process, whipping up passion and driving people to\u00a0 agitational\u00a0 mood \u00a0\u00a0No one politician is \u00a0less guilty than others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Section of people and opposition politicians want the President to quit after the Prime Minister , which would \u00a0create a constitutional crisis.\u00a0 Sri Lanka cannot afford a constitutional crisis at this stage and \u00a0all political leaders should\u00a0 have \u00a0known this.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the circumstances,\u00a0 particularly in the changed situation in the last few days, Gotabaya should stay on as President for the next four months . To defuse the situation\u00a0\u00a0 and relieve the tension, Gotabaya should speak to the Sri Lankans in Sri Lanka and abroad \u00a0over national television and tell people that he would resign after four months and hold general elections. He also should promise that he would not contest the election himself, owning responsibility for the sad turn of events in Sri Lanka\u00a0 during his tenure.<\/span><\/p>\n

The opposition leader seems to have said that he would not accept any position as Prime Minister or minister while Gotabaya remains as President. This is a very negative and irresponsible attitude and\u00a0 needs to be condemned. This is not the time for such polemics.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Gotabaya needs\u00a0 to do now is to constitute a taskforce of economists, social scientists,\u00a0 \u00a0academicians\u00a0 and\u00a0 business men\u00a0 with high levels of credibility and \u00a0integrity to work out action plans and take their guidelines to retrieve the situation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Technically, Sri Lanka has residual strength in the field of agriculture, mineral deposits etc.\u00a0 and there is no need for panic. Agriculture production can be quickly stabilised to normal level and exports\u00a0 of tea, rubber, spices and minerals can be quickly\u00a0 resumed. Once normalcy is ensured, tourism too will happen.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0What Sri Lanka needs today is the US dollar to import the necessary inputs such as diesel, petrol etc., to keep the economy moving.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is reported that a team from the IMF is in Sri Lanka \u00a0now to examine how much of the oan needs\u00a0 to be given and how it should be given. The task force to be constituted urgently must be asked to meet the IMF team, instead of discussion being carried out by bureaucrats , who are also responsible for the economic mess.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Lankan government should decide that they would take loan only from\u00a0 \u00a0the IMF or world bank and would not seek loan from India , China and others. From these countries, what Sri Lanka needs is only technology support and investment and not loan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Certainly, those who have \u00a0indulged in violence are misguided \u00a0people due to want of proper leadership\u00a0\u00a0 Gotabaya should view their undesirable violent acts with understanding \u00a0\u00a0and recognise that it is due to their \u00a0\u00a0frustration .It is necessary to keep in mind that they are Sri Lankans and have to be dealt with without hate feelings.\u00a0 Dealing with them with force will only become counterproductive and Sri Lanka does\u00a0 not need this.<\/span><\/p>\n

The strategy for winning back the glory of Sri Lanka is that \u00a0\u00a0Gotabaya should directly address the countrymen \u00a0\u00a0by\u00a0 establishing a channel of communication with cross section of people , instead of relying on the politicians and political\u00a0 leaders of various parties, \u00a0\u00a0all of whom\u00a0 shamed themselves in one way or another by not viewing the problems of Sri Lanka in a holistic manner with highest level\u00a0 of patriotism in their mind set.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overseas Sri Lankans have a duty to help Sri Lanka at this stage by liberal contribution and organise\u00a0 support in kind atleast for the next twelve months. Coordinated\u00a0 efforts from overseas Sri Lankans are not yet seen in adequate measure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Media in Sri Lanka have to highlight the positives instead of sensationalising the issues and avoid provocative discussions .\u00a0 Media groups should work out a code of conduct for themselves that will be in force atleast for the next six months. In a literate country like Sri Lanka, the media need to have a high sense of responsibility \u00a0and care.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, it should be seen that out of more than 22 million Sri Lankans, only a few thousand people have indulged in violence and agitations. Others have remained as silent spectators.\u00a0 People who can see the ground realities clearly and understand the gravity of the situation and need for a constructive climate without violence should assert themselves , speak to\u00a0 the\u00a0 media and everywhere wherever possible \u00a0and condemn the violent acts and\u00a0 confrontationist attitude\u00a0 with courage of conviction.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let all Sri Lankans realise that Sri Lanka is\u00a0 blessed with various resources and if Sri Lankans want ,\u00a0 Sri Lanka can quickly bounce back.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
