	India, Pakistan and the Sri Lankan Ethnic Conflict
		Sri Lankan government is so afraid that India might again arm, train and shelter Tamil fighters (as it did between 1983 and 1987), that it gets Indian government permission before making any move relating to the ethnic conflict.
		Sri Lankan President, Prime Minister and cabinet ministers visit Indian capital New Delhi so often that they are visiting New Delhi more often than the Indian state chief ministers and ministers.
		Sri Lanka might have thought that India may not object to a rather low-level agreement with the sole super power, especially in view of the closer relationship developing between India and America.

	Sachi Sri Kantha - Ethnophaulisms
		In Sri Lanka, four ethnic groups are present, namely Sinhalese, Tamils (Sri Lankan Tamils and Indian Tamils), Moors-Malays and Burghers.
		Of Sri Lankan ethnic groups, Sinhalese call Tamils, 'Demala', 'Para-demala', 'Thalaiya'; Tamils call Sinhalese, 'Sinhala-modaya', 'Sinhala-kaadaya'; Indian Tamils are called as 'Kallathoni' and 'Kochchi' by Sinhalese, and as 'Thotakkattan' and 'Vadakkathaiyan' by indigenous Tamils.
		But, as Rose points out, "the difficult is that, on hearing a joke or story about his group or another, the listener is often unsure whether the teller accepts or rejects the stereotypical characters and characteristics described." This is especially so, with inter-group humor, tinged with the bitterness of self-abasement.

		In 1983, the Sri Lankan government passed an amendment banning all activity that espouses separatism.16 This provision could circumscribe a citizen’s ability to practice religion freely.
		While current ethnic strife in Sri Lanka has religious causes at its roots, it is often difficult to determine whether intolerance is directed at groups primarily because of their religious or political beliefs.

		Many of the broadcasters and publishers are owned by the government, including two major TV stations, radio networks operated by the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation (SLBC), and newspaper titles in Sinhala, Tamil and English.
		As a result of this it is very rare to see Sri Lankan newspapers engage in investigative journalism or daring exposes of big business.
