    This is not to make fun of anybody or to make light of anyone's life situation. But at the rate things are going, Sub-Saharan Africa will surpass Sri Lanka when it comes to things that matter. Maybe then, the less enlightened among us will finally realise what they once had and gave up for a 'venasa.' Watura na, kaema na, light na, salli na, andum na, raekiyaa na... kamak na... Mahinda gedara ne. Let us wish Sub-Saharan Africa the best, at least their leaders seem more competent than our own.

    Please open your eyes and look around you, Sri Lanka is sliding backwards, about to be hung, drawn and quartered by the USA and India with their puppets in power and their agendas to fulfill. Our ancestors fought long and hard, endured so many trials and tribulations for more than two thousand years to maintain our independence and our identity and our freedom. We're now failing them terribly; stabbed in the back by our own, so to speak.

    Yahapalanaya is taking Sri Lanka back into the bad old days when nothing worked and Sri Lanka was stuck in what seemed like an endless purgatory. There is no silver lining here. Only darkness and gloom. We cannot let this sunless future be our destiny.

    Sri Lanka suffered its worst nationwide power cut in 20 years Sunday causing water shortages, transport and trade disruptions across the country, officials said.

    The national grid switched off early afternoon and attempts to reconnect failed as the system was unable to cope with night time demand, a spokesman for the state-run Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) utility said.

    It was the second major power failure in less than a month, following a three-hour disruption late February.

    Six hours into the latest breakdown, there was no word on when power would be restored, making the latest blackout the longest since May 1996 when the entire country was without electricity for four days.

    CEB chief Anura Wijepala accepted responsibility for the latest breakdown and offered to resign, the state-run Daily News said.

    Traffic signals failed and public transport was disrupted, while many shops were unable to process credit card payments and fuel pumps were out of action.

    Internet and mobile phone services were also disrupted in many places where there were no stand-by generators.

    Power blackouts occur sporadically in Sri Lanka but the latest nationwide outage came even as an investigation was underway into last month's embarrassing disruption while New Zealand Prime Minister John Key was visiting the island.
