Workers and students struggles have
started pushing the government to the wall

Bahu tells Vatamesaya in Lankadeepa
This is the only ruler that classifies a
demand made by hungry workers for higher salary a conspiracy. Only the
proletarian international supports the workers rights. But no such
pressure has come today on this country. If there is such, it cannot
take place without our knowledge.
We request the international proletarian support for the developing
very fair trade union struggle. All workers from plantations to other
sectors are unable just to survive. Struggle is developing to protect
their existence.
We told the JVP to abandon the chauvinist position and to fight taking
a proletarian left stand. Within that we are prepared to work with them
too. In this context the policy of the government based on repressing
the media, duping the masses, burying democracy, and attacking workers
and students, has started to collapse.
The chauvinist column of the government has already collapse. General
Sarath Fonseka's visit to America cannot bring any good to the
government. While international pressure is developing on one side, on
the other side workers and students struggles have started pushing the
government to the wall.
All are realizing that this breakdown is the best for the peole of the
country. If such national and international conspiracy is taking place
we shall openly support it. Because, it is the best for the country and
the people.
Workers are struggling today not for a conspiracy. They are fighting
for three meals a day for their families. Why? Because they have not
got stacked up billions from frauds and commissions. If the government
is incapable of giving into these just demands then it should get out.
It must leave the country to be led by a group, who can save the
country from bankruptcy and decay, uplift the human survival and
develop the country.
