  • "Her Body, Her Right"?: Interrogating the Discourse on Abortion in Sri Lanka' Carmen Wickramagamage
    Sri Lanka Journal of Social Sciences 2004 27(1&2): 17-59 "HER BODY, HER RIGHT"?: INTERROGATING THE DISCOURSE ON ABORTION IN SRI LANKA' CARMEN WICKRAMAGAMAGE Abstract This paper calls attention to an issue, abortion, that requires the urgent attention of those interested in the reproductive health indicators of women. The author's investigation of the issue arises from three particular phenomena: a) the high incidence of back-alley abortions in Sri Lanka; b) the failed attempt in1995 by .d the People's Alliance government to liberalise the restrictive law on abortion; and c) the media campaign of the Women's NGO Forum in 1999 to generated a public debate on the issue. The paper begins with an analysis of both how and why abortion has come to be such a key issue in discussions on and debates around women's rights and women's reproductive health across the globe and argues for considering it a vital reproductive health issue in Sri Lanka as well. It then critically interrogates the vocabulary deployed by the Women's NGO Forum to initiate a debate in Sri Lanka and proposes an alternative grammar of communication that might better suit the particular socio-cultural context and better address the issues at hand. This paper offers theoretical interventions into an issue, abortion, that requires the urgent attention and intervention of all policy planners, family planning service providers, health care professionals, and women's rights activists interested in the reproductive health indicators of women. My reflections on and interrogation of the Abortion Question arise from three particular phenomena: a) the reportedly high incidence of back-allgy (i.e., illegal) abortions in Sri Lanka; b) the absence of political will among Sri Lankan parliamentarians as demonstrated in 1995 when they f~&dto make even minimal amendments to the archaic, lgth century, law on abortion to bring it into line with present day realities; c) the attempts by the Women's NGO Forum in 1999 to generate a debate on the Abortion Question through the media, i.e., a television and newspaper, campaign.

  • SL Election Media Monitoring Report.Pub
    Report of the Election Media Monitoring Team Sri Lankan Parliamentary Elections December 2000 REPORT OF MEDIA MONITORING TEAM OF CPU IN SRI LANKA DURING ELECTIONS IN OCTOBER 2000 he Commonwealth Press Union put together and sent a five-person team to T Sri Lanka for nearly three weeks to observe the conduct of the print media during the last parliamentary elections held there in October 2000. The members of the delegation were drawn from five different Commonwealth countries - Uganda, India, Malaysia, Zimbabwe and the United Kingdom, bringing a wealth of professional experience and insights to the assignment. The CPU was partnered in this unique and pioneering initiative by the Editors Guild of Sri Lanka, an independent body comprising of the island’s leading edi- tors. Without their co-operation and acquiescence, this assignment could not have succeeded. Mention must also be made of the co-operation given by the Sri Lanka govern- ment in general and its information department and the diplomatic missions in particular. At no stage was there the slightest hesitation in giving information or indeed facilitating the task of this mission. The government had already opened its doors to various observer missions, including from the European Union and the Commonwealth and the media monitoring team was accorded the status of visit- ing media-men, with all the rights and privileges therein. Right from the beginning the office of the competent authority responded to every request with alacrity and without this assistance, the monitoring team’s task would have become difficult. OBJECTIVE & METHODOLOGY he objective was very clear and focused: to observe how the print media, T both government-controlled and independent, covered various aspects of the election campaign.

  • The Sunday Leader the Entrenchment of a Fascist State
    Sri Lanka: The death of a newspaper – The Sunday Leader The entrenchment of a Fascist State Brian Senewiratne MA(Cantab). MBBChir (Cantab). MD (Lond). FRCP (Lond). FRACP Consultant Physician Brisbane, Australia On Friday 21 September 2012 (another ‘black Friday’1), The Sunday Leader, the only newspaper critical of the Rajapaksa junta, was ‘killed’ (silenced), the ‘body’ quickly ‘cremated’ (handed over to one of Rajapaksa’s stooges), and the ‘ashes’ scattered in the President’s House (Palace) and ‘Temple Trees’ (so that the President and his brother can keep an eye on them to make sure they do not rise again (get back into circulation and be a thorn in the flesh)). ‘Temple Trees’ is the official residence of the Prime Minister – now acquired by the President presumably because the vast President’s House in the Colombo Fort is unable to accommodate the ever-increasing Rajapaksa dynasty. It used to be “Queens House”, the residence of the Governor General of Ceylon, and then became “President’s House” in 1972 when Ceylon became the Republic of Sri Lanka. I have no idea who occupies it now, presumably the Rajapaksa clan or the de facto President, Gotabaya Rajapaksa, with the de jure President, Mahinda Rajapaksa, demoted to “Temple Trees”. The assassin of The Sunday Leader has not been identified but the bloody footprints lead to the Rajapaksa junta and the Colombo stock market. Rumour has it that the Colombo stock market mafia raised Rs 190 million, in addition to Rs 100 million given as a bank loan by the President. It is difficult to believe that Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who recently called the Sunday Leader ‘a fucking newspaper’ and the Editor-in-Chief “a dirty fucking shit journalist” was not applauding.

  • (Since 1917), and Later Still Battenberg
    THE 23RD COMMONWEALTH TOURNÉE WILL TAKE PLACE IN COLOMBO, SRI LANKA ON 15-17 NOVEMBER 2013 by Dr George Venturini * Cast of characters: Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Hanover-Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, later Windsor (since 1917), and later still Battenberg (since 1947) in the part of Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God Queen of the United Kingdom and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth. In that capacity she officiated in Perth, Western Australia on 28 and 29 October 2011 for the 22nd Tournée. Elizabeth II is also Queen of Australia, of former Dominions such as Canada, New Zealand, as well as villes du plaisir et de débauche for the privileged such as Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, and fortunate places such as Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the Solomon Islands, and Tuvalu, in each of which she is represented by a Governor-General. Elizabeth II holds a variety of other positions, among them Supreme Governor of the Church of England, Duke of Normandy, Lord of Mann, and Paramount Chief of Fiji. Her Majesty is also styled Duke of Lancaster, Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of many of her realms, Lord Admiral of the United Kingdom, Defender of the Faith in various realms for differing reasons. Neither Elizabeth II nor her husband (and second cousin once removed as well as third cousin - and that may go a long way in explaining Prince Charles and much of the other progeny), Philip Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg known as Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, will take part in the Tournée, as they had done in Australia in 2011 at the declared cost - according to the Australian government - of AU$ 58 million.
