		Where the hell were the Sri Lankan reps? It wasn’t pretty- at all… Finally the moronic ground manager for the airline and the ditz at the counter who I semi-yelled at last time show up and make promises of accommodation with no apologies and too much ego.
		Sri Lanka is still to some extent an agriculture/plantation based economy, coconut, tea and rubber being three of our main exports.
		Last night all us Sri Lankans both at home and away came together to support the home team and suffered the contemptible brunt of cowardice of "freedom fighters" as they call themselves, who tell anyone who will listen that they are fighting for a cause and fighting for the nation.
