“In barring foreign journalists from going to Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh to report the Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama’s week-long visit to the northeastern State which China off and on claims as its own, has the Manmohan Singh government thumbed its nose at India’s great democratic traditions?” asks Sans Serif.

Sri Lanka is dealing quite effectively with a terrorism problem along the scales hitherto unseen in human history. After two decades of constant struggle, the Sri Lankans have untimately proven the whole world wrong; that terrorim can and must be defeated militarily.
For a nation that has proven adept at dealing with such complicated issues with a global participation, internal followup issues will be minor by comparison. For one who has beaten a cancer, a headache is a laughing matter.
Sri Lanka will always address her problems her own way. There will always be those who call her methods wrong. Sri Lankans have learnt the lesson that the outside voices are relevant only upto a point. Our problems need our own solutions. Understanding that much is half the win.
