Our Message and Call to the People:

So, once again, at the cost of millions of public funds, we have to
face a Presidential election. Two equally bloody, corrupt, and
parasitic Capitalist Alliances have come forward for the contest,
represented by Mahinda Rajapaksa and Sarath Fonseka. This Presidential
campaign is going to be a bitter and deadly fight between two equally
reactionary camps of the ruling class as to who is going to exercise
chauvinist dictatorship over the people of Lanka and feast on the
blood of the Tamil nationality and other communities. Let us not
become mere pawns in a deadly game of chess played by two rival camps
of the ruling class. Let us hold this State and this ruling class
accountable for the crimes willfully committed against the people and
against humanity. It will be the basis to mobilize masses against the
prevailing pro global Capitalist political order and the
militarist-chauvinist-agenda represented by both ruling class
candidates.



The continued incarceration internally displaced Tamil persons
including, sick and pregnant women in military camps in the North,
under pitiful sub-human conditions, is a damned indictment of the
prevailing pro global Capitalist State and political order. Along with
the gross criminal violations of human rights committed during the
war, these violations constitute continued crimes against humanity.
Who is to be held accountable for the horrible massacre of seventeen
humanitarian aid workers, the murder of five Tamil students, the
assassination of Hon. Joseph Pararajasingham, Hon Raviraj, Mr.
Lasantha Wickrematunga and others? Along with these abominable crimes,
is the crime of keeping some 12,000 political prisoners in various
detention camps and prisons, against whom no legal charges have been
filed. Some have languished in these dungeons for over a decade. In
this context of the willful defiling of our collective dignity and
humanity, it is our duty to get the immediate and unconditional
release of all detainees and political prisoners. The Emergency
Regulations and the Prevention of Terrorism Act and all such draconian
legislation be will be rescinded. The dismantling of the Sinhala
supremacist pro global capitalist state is the basis for gaining the
Tamil nation cohabiting in the North-East its right to live with
dignity, equality, autonomy, and the right of self determination. ;
Also for gaining security and democratic freedom, of the Hill Country
Malayaga Tamil community, the Moslem community and all other
ethnic-religious communities.

Former president J R Jayewardene brought in the executive presidency
to serve a particular agenda. The open economic policy needed such a
strong political head. If the Multi National Corporation (MNC) system
is to come in and play the important central role expected of them, it
was necessary to give all the facilities requested by them. Thus it
was introduced as an instrument to support the MNC system. When they
need any agreement either economic or security or any other it will be
easy to go through an executive head, with the ministries of Defence
and finance than through parliament with all the obstacles of
transparency and criticism. Information will be confined to
secretaries and advisers to the president and decisions can be arrived
at, without delay. So it was brought in to facilitate international
moneylenders and plunderers of global capitalism. Global capitalism is
the modern version of imperialism. It integrates the entire MNC system
with the IMF, WB and the WTO as management organs. We explained all
that in 1978 Feb. 4 and Bahu was locked up in prison for that. Now
everyone is clamouring for the removal of this tree of vultures, but
once they get elected they hold on to it not necessarily due to the
greed for power, but because of international pressure of the global
masters.
Today, the global capitalist system is in disarray facing an acute
economic crisis. All attempts to put the system into order have not
been sufficient so far. Still to come is a food crisis that could put
a large part of humanity into hunger and death. There is an energy
crisis and a threat to the global environment so it is vital for us to
seriously consider developing our food production, particularly paddy,
fish and milk. If we do not turn towards a nature oriented,
environmentalist approach we may be too late. In the past three
decades, the so-called development projects were responsible for the
insurrections both in Sinhala and Tamil rural areas. Because it
created poverty and alienation while rich became richer. While local
industrialist and producer were marginalized a large section of the
population was thrown out as human dust unconnected to the system. The
plight of women and children, particularly in slums and in rural areas
became most miserable. Patriarchy combined with militarization and the
rise of under world reduced most women to the level of domestic
slaves. Struggle of youth and the proletariat was used to intensify
the repression in all sectors. The media repression was so bad many
media people ran away from the country to escape death. But the world
tendency is against this global system working on the imperative of
super profit. The global capitalist system based on unbridled search
of super profit should be displaced by a system based on human
kindness and cooperation. No need to turn to Marx, but turn to
Thripitakaya, Baghawat geetha, Bible and Koran, and just read the
sections on kindness and cooperation.


While denying the vast majority of toiling, suffering people of their
right to a life free of poverty, indebtedness, misery and degradation,
the ruling class used the open economy to amass vast fortunes, build
empires of private profit and plunder, and to waste public funds,
through naked corruption. The Collective Agreement relating to the
Plantation workers, which has split the workers movement and betrayed
their interests, is a good example of bondages crated. It should be
torn up. A minimum basic daily wage of Rs 500 for all plantation
workers with the minimum wage in all sectors at Rs15000 per month
should be established with an increase in wages/salaries of all
government and private sector workers in accordance with the present
Cost of Living Index. t the just grievances of workers, graduates and
students should be addressed democratically and with justice, as
opposed to erecting barricades, baton charging, showering tear gas,
arresting and violently suppressing their human and democratic rights.
This regime is on trial for unleashing the very same armed forces that
brutally decimated the Tamil uprising and its leadership, against the
predominantly Sinhala workers, students, graduates and other oppressed
masses. So much for the ‘patriotism’ of these chauvinist candidates.

How can there be democracy in a land, which is kept divided by
nationality and religion? Even now, the two agents of global system
Mahinda and Sarath clamour for democracy without any hint of pulling
the masses together in national unity.
Both worked together to crush the Tamil uprising that was waged
ferociously to defend the autonomy of their people. Both were singing
and dancing with their masters about the victory until the workers
started the battle in the work places.
The strikes pushed them in to a fresh debate and they emerged as a two
headed serpent to face the people. Yes, we lost in both insurrections
but we beat them back in the trade union battle. Now they have come
out in a presidential election united in policy but divided in
camouflage. Let us get together and give a real blow to both of them,
and move forward for a united Lanka to face the dictates of global
capital. Let us build the strength to raise our vision of a world
without domination, exploitation, oppression and WAR! Let us unite our
forces across divided boundaries- North-East-South-Hill Country to
build a united, free and democratic People’s Republic of Lanka.
