Electoral Reactivation of Provincial Councils
My late friend and comrade Kethesh Loganathan, son of a famous banker and Georgetown alumnus, noted theoretician of the Marxist-led EPRLF and Deputy Head of the Peace Secretariat (SCOPP), wrote a book titled Lost Opportunities.
He saw lost opportunities as the key motif of the Sri Lankan tragedy.
Historical examples of missed chances include JR's promise of an ethnic Roundtable in 1977, which was only convened in 1984, and SWRD's failure to immediately enter the B-C Pact after the Sinhala Only act in 1956. Chandrika also missed an opportunity to implement the B-C Pact or 13A in her first year.
The question remains, when will AKD hold PC elections? Notable figures such as US Ambassador Robert Blake and President Mahinda Rajapaksa have been involved in related discussions.
Author's summary: Electoral reactivation is an urgent imperative.
