The Ceylon Workers’ Alliance General Secretary Suppiah Sathasivam addressing a gathering at the New Town Hall in Nuwara Eliya said it was the PA government which provided all amenities and facilities to the Estate workers during its tenure of governance in this country. He said the UNP which has a traditional name being the mudalalies party, continues to do so, and it will never help or foster the working class in the hillcountry.

Sathasivam, who is in the PA’s national list and a former CWC’s dissident, said in the forthcoming general elections, he was confident that the PA government would be formed under the President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga and there was no doubt about it. He appealed the plantation workers for whom, this government has done so much to vote for the PA.

The Ceylon Workers’ Alliance’s first anniversary which fell recently was marked with celebrations.

Sathasivam who gave a detailed account of the PA’s achievements in the country with particular related issues to the plantation sector and the estate workers, said there was no second word that it was the PA government and its leader Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumratunga, who had a strong will and vision to find a lasting solution to the ongoing war, and which had been thwarted by the reactionaries.
