This changed my father's views regarding the executive presidency, and he always opposed it, saying it was never intended to upkeep the democracy. Lots of Tamils, especially top intellectuals, migrated to western countries. Do you know that some of those people never believed about a separate Tamil country but always supported the unity of Sri Lanka? With that disgraceful day, everything changed overnight.</p></blockquote><p></p>
