Nobel Peace Prize for Rajapakse and Prabhakaran?

- Secret meeting held in Polonnaruwa

- Another Cease Fire Agreement Soon?

- Prabhakaran will be granted an amnesty by India

“The meeting of the three along with a presidential secretary and two other officials from the foundation and a prominent LTTE supporter from Oslo took place in a secret enclave not far from Polonnaruwa and what used to be a Rest House in colonial times and now refurbished into a luxury bungalow with an underground meeting hall. It is well covered by huge trees including several banyan species.”

by Anita Joseph reporting from Oslo, Norway

(April 01, Oslo, Sri Lanka Guardian) We have news from very reliable sources here in Norway that an emissary from the Nobel Prize Foundation has secretly met with President Mahinda Rajapakse and Velupillai Prabhakaran and offered the 2008 Nobel Peace Prize jointly for both if they agreed to a certain proposal put forward to them.

The meeting of the three along with a presidential secretary and two other officials from the foundation and a prominent LTTE supporter from Oslo took place in a secret enclave not far from Polonnaruwa and what used to be a Rest House in colonial times and now refurbished into a luxury bungalow with an underground meeting hall. It is well covered by huge trees including several banyan species. The access to it is through a tunnel said to be about three miles long from somewhere near Polonnaruwa.

This place is a popular habitat of at least three herds of elephants and leopards have also been spotted but essentially it is deer and elk country.

The proposal of the Nobel Prize Foundation was that both President Rajapakse and Prabhakaran must agree forthwith to immediate ceasefire unconditionally as a gesture of goodwill but with a promise that a federal solution is sought and legally enacted by August 1, 2008 and on Independence Day 2009, Sri Lanka becomes the Federal Republic of Sri Lanka with five states - Northern, Eastern, Southern, Western and Central.

Furthermore the Federal Prime Minister becomes the Executive Head of the country, and the president the nominal and titular with the position rotated every four years among the various communities of the country. Each state will be headed by a Chief Minister and all elections, both state and federal are held on the same day but not based on proportional representation. Five state constituencies will constitute one federal constituency with some exceptions in the heavily populated urban areas.

The most remarkable proposal of the Nobel Prize Foundation was that Prabhakaran should accept the position of the Federal Vice President in February 2009 to show to the world that his intention for a peaceful resolution is genuine; likewise President Rajapakse, that his talks of peace in Sri Lanka is his primary goal. The Nobel Prize Foundation also advised both leaders that the best guideline they have is the Indian model even more than the Swiss system.

It is believed prior to his visit to Sri Lanka, the Nobel Prize Foundation official had talks with India’s Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh and the head of the Congress Party, Mrs Sonia Gandhi and both agreed to support Sri Lanka to give a quick start to Sri Lanka’s economic development once a federal state is established. They also agreed that in the event this becomes a reality, Velupillai Prabhakaran will be granted an amnesty by India following a mere technical arraignment in an Indian court and pardoned in the larger interests of Sri Lanka and the South Asian region. Prabhakaran seems to have accepted this suggestion.

Its is an insult to the democracy and hooray to the dictatorship and armed thuggery. If Mr. Parbarkaran is very serious about peace and his intensions, he should give up arms, rehabilate himself and hold a referendum. Also, one should take into account of the cost effectiveness of running a such a model in a small country.

Then If I may say so Norway and UK could follow suit by adopting a similar model as it has been drumed into me that Scottish and Irish have been discriminated for over 1000s of years. If it is not appropriate for UK then certainly not for Sri Lanka. If I remeber correctly Srilanka is only the size of London - such a model will never be implemented in London. It is a better idea to work towards coexistence, learning to respect others and their values and so on.

I do not understand how this model will alleviate racial, religious, idelogy discriminations. This is a another demonstration that there is no more racial discriminations in SL than anywhere else in the globe. Infact the situation in SL(in the south) is more bearable than for instance in UK. For instance, few weeks back, i visted a Petrol station near my house to purchase a sandwitch. There were about 3 customers waiting to be served, as soon as I walked into the shop, cashier shouted at me saying "we cant serve you because the till not working". Rubbish, its owned by Tigers. There are loads of examples to demonstrate that this struggle started in 1977 is nothing to do with any discriminations faced by Tamils.

When the leaders of the first world nations are not willing to negotiate with dictators and terrorists, such as Zimbauwe, I cant see why Tigers should be given legendary treatments in SL. Recently, IRA deided to denounce violence and pursue democracy to address their grievences. However, like Karuna, Mr. Prabarkaran could always resort to democracy to solve the grievences face by Tamils. Who is to say that in future the whole country might not be subjected to similar treatments received by innocent Tamil population in North and East of the country. If the West is bending backward to please every behest of Mr Prabarkaran, it is not very hard to rule out anything.

The wholestory is like a fairy tale, which is further enhanced by the phrases like:
"The access to it is through a tunnel said to be about three miles long from somewhere near Polonnaruwa."
&
"Prabhakaran seems to have accepted this suggestion."

Best dose of Punnakku I have had in a long long time. From the current position the Govt. is in, there is no need for any bargaining whatsoever. When Gotabhaya Rajapakse said "We won't leave the war for the future generation" he made the govt. position crystal clear. It is total annihilation we are after. We don't need any quebec style separatism and threats to face in future by agreeing to stupid Federalism.
