    This tread is for your cultural knowledge. not to debate on any other racist
    grounds.

    It`s a well known fact that the Kandyan Convention was signed by the Kandyan chieftans and the British, what is less well known is that some of the chieftains signed in Tamil. Ehelepola and Ratwatte(Great Grand father of President Chandrika Bandaranayake) signed in TAMIL. Pilimatalawe`s signature contained a mixture of Sinhala and Tamil letters as did the signatures of Dullawe and Millawe Disawas.
