Cendric Kumaran Kovil Chief Kurkkal Dematagoda Needi Rasa Sharma of
the Western Province United Tamil Organization (WPTUO) said that they
were very happy today after peace was achieved under the leadership of
President Mahinda Rajapaksa.
Today no one was checking our kovils and we perform our religious
rites in peace and freedom. We do not trust candidate Sarath Fonseka and
will wholeheartedly support President Mahinda Rajapaksa.
A WPTUO member Champika Wijeratnam said we lived in fear and doubt
earlier. But now we are a free people. Therefore we will work to make
President Mahinda Rajapaksa our king.
President WPTUO Saroja Devi said they had worked for the UNP before
but now they would work for President Mahinda Rajapaksa as Sarath
Fonseka is trying to do a job that he had no qualifications to do.
