This website is intended to provide an avenue for the
intellectual community of this country to highlight National
problems and offer solutions to these problems. This is NOT,
we repeat IS NOT a site to sling mud, accuse, defame, libel
or even point fingers at the governance, ministers or anybody
for that matter. It is intended solely to be a site to offer
the possibility for the Sri Lankan intellect community to
address National problems and offer corresponding solutions,
giving them an opportunity of self expression in the hope
that relevant authorities will then take note of these issues
and solutions highlighted through this site.
We who developed the concept of this site believe that
our Children are our future and we are theirs…We are
their future because what we do for them today will have
a bearing on what they will inherit tomorrow. Daily, we
come across national issues ranging from issues of national
importance such as corruption, lawlessness, malpractices,
ethnic issues, political issues, waste of valuable resources,
inefficiency and wrongful public sector policies among many
others which would have a direct bearing on the current
situation in the country which some day will be have a bearing
on the lives of our children - who represent our future.
As such if we don’t do something about it now then
we have failed our next generation who represent our future.
The concept of the site stems from the fact that at this
present moment in time in our country we have a vast segment
of intellects who are concerned with National issues - who
in turn may have worked out solutions to these issues –
but have no way of bringing forth these issues. These National
minded intellects segment does not have a manner of bringing
forth the valuable suggestions they posses due to reasons
ranging from their own busy schedules, the need for anonymity
or purely due to total inaccessibility of relevant decision
makers who should otherwise take good note of these intelligent
solutions to key issues. This valuable resource opportunity
has not been utilized as at present.
After a ruling party is voted to power the intellect community
who may have valuable solutions in reference to National
issues have to stay silent due to lack of expressive opportunity.
As such this site offers the opportunity for the intellect
community of this country to take up National issues that
have a negative impact on our country’s prosperity
and essentially offer solutions depending on their co- expertise
on respective subjects. It is envisaged that by maintaining
the quality of the site strictly to be within the problem
- solution concept, that the relevant politicians or public
sector decision makers - who are otherwise not accessible
– will be compelled to view the site and will eventually
find this site a valuable resource of reference. If we could
achieve this objective then we have done what we could in
our own small way but a giant leap in terms of a future
for our children.
Having this site is not a guarantee that the problems and
solutions offered will be taken up by the governance. But
it will eventually generate a greater degree of benign pressure
on public sector decision makers to focus on posted issues.
In any event those who make submissions to be posted on
the site may at least have the reward of knowing that we
have done something in our own little way towards making
a better Sri Lanka for our selves and our future generations.
This site is a forum for the National minded intellect
community of our country to bring forth National problems
on specific subjects and to offer a workable solution to
same. As such it is not a site mealy to present a problem.
But offer solutions to identified specific problems as a
means of sharing objective solutions to damaging issues
that urgently need attention. As such any malicious, defamatory
or unproductive submissions will NOT be posted on the site.
Also submissions with only problems will not be posted on
the site. Such content will be deleted at source. A panel
of like minded individuals will peruse all offerings to
the site and ONLY the material falling within the PROBLEM
- SOLUTION format will be posted on the site in order to
keep the site pristine and within the objective of overall
National benefit.
This web site offers you the opportunity to address problems
that you face in your day to day life at your respective
work place, neighborhood, government institutions and such
other similar institutions which have frustrated you with
its burearatic inefficiency for example or lets say with
underhand corrupt deals or favoritism out of which today
you are frustrated because things are not going the way
they should for our beloved country. If you have a solution
for such problems, then you are most welcome to write to
our website and appraise us with your problem and its corresponding
proposed solution. We in turn make it our responsibility
to become your medium, your bridge to carry it through to
our higher relevant Authorities by way of public display.
We would like to reiterate that this website will not welcome
any articles which have mere complaints unaccompanied by
a corresponding proposed solution. We will only display
those articles which will include not only the genuine problem
but also a proposed solution which the subscriber of the
article perceives as a tangible and an effective one. We
the panel at this end will not make our selections based
on political biases or partialities, therefore it would
be a waste of precious time if any member of the public
tries to utilize this opportunity to carve out a method
to “sling mud” or “wash dirty linen in
public”…..We will surely take it upon our selves
to distinguish those articles that are devoid of substance,
and will be compelled to reject such articles.
This website is aimed at helping those members of the intellectual
community in our country, to assist in taking to the doorsteps
of those in power, methods of resolving issues which are
prevalent in institutions all over the country .Therefore
these articles /contributions must include problem- solution
packages which are of national level. If we may further
define the nature of these problem-solution packages, the
problems must be ones that essentially plague people and
institutions in SRI LANKA, and the solutions must emanate
from those who have a genuine need to put a stop to such
raging issues.
These problems can range from corruption at your work place
to bribery at your recreational institutions, or it can
be an issue on pollution in your community ,or lethargy
in your department. As long as it is a problem of which
YOU are aware of and of which you are ready to put an end
to with the assistance of higher authorities then YOU the
intellectual community of this country can come to us. We
will link you with the right source, may it be the President
himself and/or a relevant ministry, our website will bridge
the gap.
This website is a result of an effort, to attempt at giving
a helping hand to those of you who are weary of certain
problems but are genuine in the need to eradicate them,
so as to make our homeland a better place to live for us
and our future generations. Let us take at least one step
forward in making our county a better place. In doing this
we will assure you that your articles will be taken with
much respect and responsibility by the panel of editors,
however this will be subject to the condition that they
shall be based on the following criterion.
