  • fuck the singalese, fuck the tamils, in the end we are all sri lankan

  • @xterker23 aioo..annaa our leader is still running-why?

  • @sadhaklal lol is that why we tamil killed muslims?..lol

  • @xterker23 tell me, who was the first person that Prabakaran killed? was he a sinhalese, or a tamil? Because if I wanted to start a struggle against the majority, I would have started it by killing people that I hate the most....so ironical isnt it?

  • @pandithaya999 No we are 2 nations 2 languages and 2 religions. Long Live Tamil Eelam.

  • The Sri Lankan government practiced fascism... 

  • The Sinhalese should learn Tamil, in Belgium the majority people (Flemish) learn the minority language (French).

  • @LeHuyAnh i see where you're coming from. but i know sinhala and a lion is called a singha in the language.

  • @SLwootwootUK Yeah, I'm sure. 'Cause the name "Ceylon" is from the vernacular pronounciation of the Sanskrit "Sinha/singh" ("lion"), which they would have said as "Sihalam" or something like that. So "Ceylon" would have naturally been a corruption of it. The Chinese were aware of the name "Ceylon" since at least the 3rd century, about 700 years or so before any precise European knowledge of that island. But then again, the Chinese often confused Sri Lanka with the rest of the subcontinent.

  • @LeHuyAnh are you sure, because didn't ceylon come from ceilao in portuguese. it would have come from somewhere but i doubt it was from sanskrit/pali
