We have done it! Come and learn from us

Our great army completely eliminated LTTE terrorism from our mother land. Five years back it was a task people thought that we were never going to achieve. Five years back if you ask ten people, can we beat LTTE from the war eight would say no you couldn't. But today it again proved that what majority thought was wrong. During the 2005 presidential election campaign I remember how certain media act on behalf of some candidates whose opinion was that LTTE cannot be eliminated from a war.

There are lots of things we can learn from this victory. For me the main thing is when there are right people in the right places there is nothing impossible. First of all we have elected the most suitable person who got the help from patriot people as our president. Then the president give the responsibility of this huge campaign to the most suitable military leaders. The right vision and the great plan gave the invaluable gift to the mother land.

The other thing is the current president didn't win the election by a big margin compared to some other previous leaders. But he did the task that all the others failed to do. This tells that people you trust most the time are not the real champions. It is some other who you may not think will become the man of the match.
