UN resolution against our country ?

Dear forum members, This is not related to Investment, But I thought to put this topic to this forum,because there may be members in this forum who knows actual situation of this topic.

What is the Resolution UN going to bring against our country ?, What will be the impact of that resolution to our country ?

The resolution is to request/require Srilankan government ......

1) to implement LLRC recommendations,
2) to investigate accountability issues arising from the final stages of the war,
3) to carry out a meaningful reconciliation with minority ethnic groups and
4) to demilitarize north and east.

The impact only arises when the resolution is passed with a majority votes in UN Human Rights Council. There are 47 countries in the human rights council.

There won't be any major impacts immediately as this is just a resolution to ask GSL to do certain things.

If those certain things are not carried out, they may be looking for alternative options. I guess looking for alternative options may take 6 to 12 months in that case.

All this talks about this matter is due to Our government does not like internationalization of this issue. So we are against the resolution.

In my opinion this is a diplomatic failure on our side.

Nothing to worry about sanctions or anything at this moment. If that is an option it may take 1 to 2 years from now.

These are my personal opinion and I'm not a specialist on political matters

This should be taken as positive development (like the IMF conditions) for the country as a whole if taken seriously. Blame others for our own failures are like hiding our head in the sand and sooner we attend to the issues, better it would be.

As Kithisiri told we need to take this as a good opertunity.

Western powers will push the government to implement what they promised during the war to them.(which might be hiden to the public then and even now)
If the government won't implement these forces can start to destabilise our country by various dirty tricks and alienate the rulers from the public.
After that, they will take war crime bla bla stories against the rulers.
It will take 1 - 2 Years time.
Simply these are power players plot.
Our government gave them the chance.

If the government really concern of its people....nothing to worry about these things, if implemented it will bring long lasting peace and stability which eventually good for the entire country.

LLRC is the government's committee .. so they cant reject to implement its recommendations

If we want a long lasting peace north and east also has to be like other part of the country what I mean is sinhalese,tamils and muslims all should be there.This part must not be tamil concentrated area.

Powerful nations use different types methods to control countries which do not follow their agendas.
Nowadays Human Rights is the main tactic they are using.

In Israel ,war betrayers are killed instantly.That is how they survive in the heart of their enemy countries.
But some countries betrayers are jailed and that will lead to future problems.

We love Sri Lanka,but dont love cheap politics.If we cant,some body has to pressure for stop government militarism

Also peoples attitude should be changed.

SL has to promote the principles of good governance, transparency, justice, democracy, and independent state institutions.& also release SF immediately....

If people want to enjoy the real peace,go to some developed country & see.I agreed they do some cheap things to other countries but not for their people.

The draft resolution looks like this......


"Sri Lanka HRC19 Resolution Draft Elements

"Guided by the Charter of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Human Rights, and other relevant instruments,

"Reaffirming that States must ensure that any measure taken to combat terrorism complies with their obligations under international law, in particular international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law, as applicable,

"Noting the Report of Sri Lanka's Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) and its findings and recommendations, and acknowledging its possible contribution to Sri Lanka's national reconciliation process.

"Welcoming the constructive recommendations contained in the LLRC report, including the need to credibly investigate widespread allegations of extra judicial killings and enforced disappearances, de-militarize the north of Sri Lanka, implement impartial land dispute resolution mechanisms, re-evaluate detention policies, strengthen formerly independent civil institutions, reach a political settlement involving devolution of power to the provinces, promote and protect the right of freedom of expression for all, and enact rule of law reforms.

"Expressing concern that the LLRC report does not adequately address serious allegations of violations of international law, and expressing serious disappointment that the Government of Sri Lanka has not fulfilled its relevant legal obligations and stated commitment to initiate credible and independent investigations and prosecutions of those responsible for such violations,

"1, Calls on the government of Sri Lanka to implement the constructive recommendations in the LLRC report and additionally to take immediate steps to fulfil its relevant legal obligations and stated commitment to address serious allegations of violations of international law by initiating credible and independent investigations and prosecutions of those responsible for such violations,

I do not want this forum to be politicised and respect others view.
But this idea is totally rubbish.
What message you want to convey?
These mentality made our country to this stage.
Try to respect other communities individuality.
Unity in diversity is needed at this time.
So in future China or India or USA can come into Srilanka and chase us from our motherland and colonise other language speaking people? Will you agree for that?

Yes.. these are highly sensitive issues. Better we draw a line to discuss only the impact of UNHRC Resolution on our stock market and Srilankan economy

Yes its correct,only we have to discuss about the impact to stock market.If not this forum can be politicized???

As I mentioned in previous comment,peoples mentality & attitudes should be changed to see an eternal peace.

I also don't agree with Mr rijasooriya comments,Thats what i just mentioned people attitudes in lat comments without further explain.

Mr rijasoo.. Please don't take as personal...

Your assumption is completely wrong.
The basic problem the politicians (both side) made misunderstanding between the community with false infos.
Better to stop at this point and concentrate on stock trading matters is good for the forum as well as inter member relations.
Thanks for the discussion.

Yes it is better to stop here as u have said

Your assumption is completely wrong.

which means that u are so bound to ur idea that there is no any room for reasonable discussion.

Thanks.

Let us talk on the impact of this issue to our economy. I think this gives bad publicity to Sri Lanka & it will certainly reduce FDI in the future. If the resolution is passed and we do not heed & take remedial action as proposed sanctions can be imposed.

Yes. I wonder why foreigners activities to be seen during last week, If your above point is not known to them or what? or sanctions not going to effect share prices or what?

Today also foreign inflow, If there is a fear of sanctions , Do foreigners buy continuously ?

කීර්ති වර්ණකුලසූරිය ජිනීවා නුවර සිට

ශ්‍රී ලංකාවට එරෙහි ඇමරිකානු යෝජනාව අද (28 දා) දෙවැනි දිනයේ පැවැත්වෙන ජිනීවා මානව හිsමිකම් සමුළුව වෙත ගෙන ඒමට ඇමරිකානු රජය තීරණය කර ඇතැයි අනාවරණය වේ. මේ යෝජනාව පසුබිමේ ඇමරිකානු රාජ්‍ය නිලධාරීන් වූ රොබට්‌ බ්ලේක්‌ සහ සමන්තා පවර් සිටින බව ඊයේ (27 දා) හෙළිවී ඇත. ඊට ඡන්දය විමසීම මාර්තු 23 වැනිදා ආරම්භ වෙයි. මේ අතර ඇමිනෙස්‌ට්‌ ඉන්ටර්නැෂනල්, ඉන්ටර්නැෂනල් ක්‍රයිසස්‌ ගෲප් ඇතුළු රාජ්‍ය නොවන සංවිධාන 37 ක්‌ ශ්‍රී ලංකාවට දඬුවම් කිරීමේ අරමුණින් ජිනීවා වෙත පැමිණ තිබේ.

මානව හිමිකම් සමුළුවේදී ජාත්‍යන්තර නීතිය ක්‍රියාත්මක කරන ලෙස ද ඔවුන් මානව හිමිකම් කොමසාරිස්‌ නවනීදන් පිල්ලෙයිගෙන් ඉල්ලා තිබේ. ජිනීවාහි ඇමරිකානු තානාපති අයිරින් බොනතෝ ද ඊයේ (27 දා) විදෙස්‌ තානාපති නිලධාරීන් හමුවී සාකච්ඡා පවත්වා ඇත.

මේ අතර මෙම ඇමරිකානු යෝජනාව ඉදිරිපත් කිරීමට ඉඩ නොදෙන ලෙස ශ්‍රී ලංකා අමාත්‍ය කණ්‌ඩායම විසින් මානව හිමිකම් කොමසාරිස්‌ නවි පිල්ලෙයිගෙන් ඉල්ලා තිබේ. මෙය ලොව අනිකුත් රටවලට ද බලපානවා. එසේ වුවොත් එක්‌සත් ජාතීන්ගේ R 2 S නමැති මැදිහත්වීමේ ක්‍රමවේදය ක්‍රියාත්මක කිරීමට ද අවස්‌ථාව හිමිවෙනවා යෑයි ශ්‍රී ලංකා බලධාරීන් විසින් දන්වා ඇත.

ඇමරිකාවේ මෙම ශ්‍රී ලංකා විරෝධී යෝජනාව ඉදිරිපත් වීමට ඉඩ දුන්නොත් ඉන්දියාවේ කාශ්මීර් අර්බුදය හා චීනයේ බෙදුම්වාදී අර්බුදයකට ද මැදිහත්වීමට ඇමරිකාවට ඉඩ ලැබෙන බව ද ආරංචි මාර්ග දක්‌වයි.

This is a resolution to convince sri lanka to push to implement report. There is nothing major they can do here I understand. Anyway, if it come to worse , we still have some strong firend countries who make big change.
