Our good government become extremely good not because that
it has over 40 cabinet ministers which have ministries but not been properly gazetted,
it’s because our president’s son recently started an English class through his Facebook
page. First of all we should thanks to this young man’s attempt of improving English
knowledge among Sri Lankans and we wish he will get many international
conferences .Then we can learn at least a single word from each conference which
he will be attending.
Mr. Dahama Sirisena explained the word” nepotism “As per his
explanation we Sri Lankans are total miss leaded by the meaning of this word.
Any way those who did not read Mr .Daham
Sirisena’s explanation this is what the oxford dictionary says.
Nepotism
ˈ(nepəˌtizəm)/noun
The practice among those with
power or influence of favoring relatives or friends, especially by giving them
jobs.
Synonyms: favoritism,
preferential treatment, the old boy network, looking after one's own, bias,
partiality, partisanship
Origin
Mid-17th century: from French
népotisme, from Italian nepotismo, from nipote ‘nephew’ (with reference to
privileges bestowed on the “nephews” of popes, who were in many cases their
illegitimate sons).
I agree with Mr Daham Sirisena so far he has not been awarded
with a good position in government jobs. When he finished his studies in
England he will definitely get a good job considering his qualifications like
his uncle.
The other thing is most of Sri Lankan can’t afford sending their
children study in England, like our president does. In a way Mr Daham Sirisena you
are very lucky. Now you already have attended United Nations conference as well.
We, Sri Lankans are not jealousy about your greatest achievements, we are proud
about you and your father, when we are seeing that your father, our president is
sitting next to Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin at the lunch table we Sri Lankan
did not even eat for days, because we lost our hunger.
But meantime you must have asked from UN sectary Ban Ki Moon
why did not he invite Mrs. Obama or Mrs. Putin .Al we are aware of that Mr.Modi, the Indian
Prime minister is still unmarried. They should have brought their children
instead of wives. Of course you missed the company of those children.
It appears to me Mr.
Daham Sirisena is only teaching what he thinks appropriate to us. He has simply
ignoring the full meaning of the noun. Furthermore he is comparing this is much
better than this country with Mr .Rajapaksha. Yes I have to agree, but his
father was the man who asked power to end that era. But are you willing to do
the same? Please Mr .Daham Sirisena don’t try to justify with this sort of
feeble answers.
As young law student Mr Daham Sirisena must have known that
famous statement in law education "Not only must Justice be done; it must
also be seen to be done."
I think we can rephrase this “"Not only must GOOD GOVERNMENT be done; it must also be SEEN to be done."
Again Mr Daham Sirisena please continue you r English class
through Facebook. We are willing to be your students.
But I would like to mention something I have heard from President
Abraham Lincoln for your knowledge.it s better if you can also visit Washington
D.C and see Lincoln memorial.
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and
remove all doubt.”
Abraham Lincoln
