WHITHER PARADISE?

We wonder if even God can help our country now. Our island home was a beautiful paradise and its inhabitants were God-fearing. That was, in the time of the benevolent, respected leaders who TRULY LOVED this country and its people. They fought long and hard to gain independence and maintained the TRUE SPIRIT OF THAT INDEPENDENCE they fought so hard to gain. When did our beautiful island paradise turn into the MONSTROSITY IT IS TODAY? In 1947, the Ceylon Independence Act saw the light of day and the first election in the history of our island elected D.S. SENANAYAKE as the FIRST PRIME MINISTER – CEYLON GAINED ITS FREEDOM! Those were the halcyon days of our country when ministers were respected. In fact, THEY WERE GIVEN THE RESPECT THEY SO RIGHTLY DESERVED!
