(December, 15, Sydney, Australia, Sri Lanka Guardian) You obviously knew what you were saying, and Dominic, with your sympathies you have now exposed yourself to be vulnerable bait for the Tamil Tiger Mafia in North America. If they had tried attempting to bribe US State Department officials with one million American bucks to remove their organization, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) from the State Department’s list of designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations, don’t be surprised if you will be the next looking at a wad of crisp American dollar notes as an incentive to be their international spokesperson for the Tamil cause in the United States.
Here Full Text of the Letter,
His Excellency. Dominic Chilcott
High Commissioner for Britain in Sri Lanka
British High Commission
190 Galle Road,
Colombo – 3
Sri Lanka
Dear Mr. Dominic Chilcott:
Your undiplomatic blatant disregard for your host country with your uncanny statement alluding that the political aspiration for a Tamil state was legitimate, was a case of interfering in her internal affairs, and it is troubling. And the Government of Sri Lanka through her Foreign Secretary Dr. Palitha Kohona too has told you so. With your next posting to Washington which is south of Canada’s border, all what I can intimate to you is, take a deep breath and just Chill-out Dominic before you get over to North America.
To try and wriggle out of it by way of an explanation saying that what you meant was that political aspirations could be expressed through legitimate methods, just as much as the aspiration for independence for Yorkshire, was feeble and wasn’t good enough.
I am sure your Grammar School English teacher explained to you the difference in metaphoric semantics, allusion and ambiguity. What you said was nothing obscure as you spoke with your brain in your heart with a minimum of folderol showing sympathy towards the Tamil separatist Eelam cause. In case you think that you were fooling me and the others who have been irritated by your statement as it was meant to be a funny Ha! Ha!! story, then you were certainly pulling our wrong legs as we all had our Christmas jingle bells strapped to our right ankles.
You obviously knew what you were saying, and Dominic, with your sympathies you have now exposed yourself to be vulnerable bait for the Tamil Tiger Mafia in North America. If they had tried attempting to bribe US State Department officials with one million American bucks to remove their organization, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) from the State Department’s list of designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations, don’t be surprised if you will be the next looking at a wad of crisp American dollar notes as an incentive to be their international spokesperson for the Tamil cause in the United States. You better watch out, as we will be watching you in case you have a spill of heart with greed to provide your muffled endorsement around the US for an Eelam.
Welcome to North America Dominic, but be careful and watch your step, as promoting the mythical Eelam for a wad of American dollars, with the pompous pretext that you are now an expert in Sri Lankan ethnic politics having served in Sri Lanka for a couple of years or so, will be a perfect recipe to cultivate enemies among the Sri Lankan community in North America. I really don’t think you need that, as you are now out of the Sri Lankan desk in diplomacy. And as I had advised you earlier, just Chill-Out Dominic, before you get over to the States as the second in command at your Mission in Washington.
Sincerely,
Asoka Weerasinghe
Gloucester,
Canada
