"We hold the view that the people come first, not the
government". John F. Kennedy.
The 1978 Constitution was drafted with the misguided and selfish
blind hunch of the UNP which planned to capture political power
over and over again. The 17th Amendment though passed
unanimously came to be disregarded with predictable caprice.
The 18th Amendment was passed by politically castrated eunuchs
to satisfy the selfish monarchical ambitions of the then President
to be a dictatorial despot, an autocrat planning to perpetuate a
dynasty that turned out to be corrupt to the core. One is reminded
how Adolf Hitler was persuasive enough to democratically
achieve leadership he was called Fuhrer and establish a Nazi
dictatorship that carried out socially immoral actions including
genocide.
Here in Sri Lanka, even with the Right to Information in place the
Minister of Justice is contesting the right to information about the
wealth of the President and Prime Minister as if they are
impeccable super deities. They are also citizens and the least of
the citizens, even if there be such in this country, are equal in
human dignity and have human rights equal to those of the
President and Prime Minister. With some ministers stupidly
considering and acting as super citizens above the law, the
equality of all people, irrespective of their social, political,
economic position, tends to get blurred. No one should possess
wealth illegally and immorally gained. No one should evade just
taxes. No citizen should be above the law. The New Constitution
should uncompromisingly underpin these principles and become
the instrument of a reformed new political culture because the
one that exists is abominably evil, begets evil, nurtures evil and
corrupts everyone. The vast majority of parliamentarians are set
in their evil ways, enslaved in many a political illegal gain, illicit
pleasure, social mischief and deceit. Enslaved as they are, how on
earth could they bring any kind of liberation to the people?
