East is a far cry today but we have hope as we still have the same fertile land that can be tilled-this time after having consumed the last dregs of humiliation in having been reduced to the begging bowl from the Grand Granary-and also as we have the same mold of people who can be made to put their hands to the plough with proper guidance on techniques, modern equipment and a youth friendly rural society-this time guided private entrepreneurs and not by our chair-warming and lethargic \u2018public servants\u2019<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p

countries It is apt to touch on this much hackneyed subject which is common knowledge to the average reader-with capitalism caricatured as the blackest devil-although several of the communist countries of the bygone era have professed capitalism-unfortunately not very willingly admitted by our local variety-for known\/unknown reasons: this concept must be bourn in mind when we consider

managed by the mercantile system of companies especially in cases of tea rubber and coconut; this system prevailed till independence-at which time our country was termed prosperous-until it changed with the Land Reforms Commission and the lands managed by the state with consequent heavy losses: there were intermittent changes of management with sparse attention given to tilling of land for food crops like paddy-so much so that ensuing generations of tillers were averse taking to tilling the land.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p

traditional preserve of a few-having an aura of mystical beliefs surrounding it: this social aspect may not have met with the rigid demands of the vibrant mercantile sector-which at that time would have preferred to fish in peace without muddying the waters!<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-6485248490997687206ydp19ce10eayiv7694141026ydpe483ddb3msonormal\" style=\"text-align:

can be said that the youth were enamored with the luster they imagined of the city dwelling-resulting in their having to live in makeshift chum merry spaces in the city and this was repugnant to the
