Suggestion to Eradicate the Sufferings of Tamils in Srilanka

Vanakam Nanbargale (Friends),

As we are aware of the great suffering of the Tamils in Srilanka for a very long time now and this time being more worse than before. The atrocities they have been facing are indescribable too. The civil war and racial discriminations happening in Srilanka has gone beyond the limit and it appears that the government is not bothered at all by the various efforts and protests by the Tamils around the globe.

I would like to suggest the following to eradicate these suffering and it will only work if the Tamil in the world get together :-

·All these are happening all because we Tamil people do not have a land for ourselves to call as a country. We only have a state in India and even if the state wants to accept all the Tamils of Srilanka or any other parts of the world as citizens instead of refugees, the central government may not agree to it. So, the solution that I can think of is to :-

* Form a protem Tamil government/committee.

* Identify and purchase an island (as big as Singapore or bigger than Singapore)
* I am sure all Tamils around the world will contribute an amount
they can for this purchase.
* If any country is willing to donate an island without any
obligations, then that will be better too.

* Give a name for the island and register/seek recognition of it as a
country by the United Nations.

* The protem government/committee should draw out the constitution and have some foreign advisors like the former prime-minister and current Minister Mentor (Singapore) Mr Lee Kwan Yew.

* Seek the help of the United Nations, countries and NGOs to setup the basic amenities for the country to function :-
* Water (deslination plants, etc)
* Food
* Medication
* Hospitals
* Homes/Shelters
* Defense, Civil and police forces
* Infrastructure development (telecommunication, road networks, public
transportation, etc)

* Seek the help of the various countries for investments.

* The people of the new country which will truly be a Tamil Naadu must
get together and work together and hard for the development and
progress of the country and people.

If Japan (after World War II) and Singapore (after its independence in 1964) can do it, so can this new country.

This I truly will help the Tamils not only of those in Srilanka but those around the world.

A country to call their own (Tamil Naadu). A country that accepts any Tamilian from any country as its resident. A country with rich Tamil culture and traditions.

All these will only be possible if the Tamils around the world get together and ACT instead of just talk.

Ondru pattaal undu vaazhvu.
