  • Sinhala Language Corpora and Stopwords from a Decade of Sri Lankan Facebook
    Sinhala Language Corpora and Stopwords from a Decade of Sri Lankan Facebook Yudhanjaya Wijeratne†, Nisansa de Silva‡ † LIRNEasia, 12 Balcombe Place, Colombo, Sri Lanka ([email protected]) ‡ University of Oregon, 1585 E 13th Ave, Eugene, OR 97403, United States ([email protected]) LIRNEasia is a pro-poor, pro-market think tank whose mis- sion is catalyzing policy change through research to improve people’s lives in the emerging Asia Pacific by facilitating their use of hard and soft infrastructures through the use of knowledge, information and technology. This work was carried out with the aid of a grant from the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Ottawa, Canada. 1 Abstract This paper presents two colloquial Sinhala language corpora from the language efforts of the Data, Analysis and Policy team of LIRNEasia, as well as a list of algorithmically derived stopwords. The larger of the two corpora spans 2010 to 2020 and contains 28,825,820 to 29,549,672 words of multilingual text posted by 533 Sri Lankan Facebook pages, including politics, media, celebrities, and other categories; the smaller corpus amounts to 5,402,76 words of only Sinhala text extracted from the larger. Both corpora have markers for their date of creation, page of origin, and content type. Introduction ‘The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.’ – Ludwig Wittgenstein Sinhala, as with many other languages in the Global South, currently suffers from a phenomenon know as resource poverty [1]. To wit, many of the fundamental tools that are required for easy and efficient natural language analysis are unavailable; many of the more computational components taken for granted in languages like English are either as yet unbuilt, in a nascent stage, and in other cases, lost or retained among select institutions [2].

  • Overview of Estimated Election Campaign Costs Monitoring Initiative Parliamentary Election 2020
    Overview of Estimated Election Campaign Costs Monitoring Initiative Parliamentary Election 2020 In Sri Lanka, there is currently no legal framework that obligates candidates contesting elections to disclose the costs they incur for election campaigning. The absence of campaign finance legislation has always resulted in enormous disparities in elections held in Sri Lanka and prevents there being a level playing field for all candidates. The issue here is not the question of which party or candidate has access to the largest amount of money, but rather whether voters can know how much money has been utilised and for what purpose. This in turn is followed by favours to donors once a candidate is in office, and the further institutionalisation of corruption in the body politic. Methodology The Estimated Election Campaign Cost Monitoring initiative computes the “costs” incurred in the election campaign by candidates, their political parties, or on their behalf, for promoting or procuring their election. It also includes the misuse of state property where estimates of property can be made. For this purpose, CMEV considers four cost categories framed around the Draft Campaign Finance Legislation designed by the Election Commission (currently pending Parliamentary introduction): 1. Printed Media (covering 28 newspapers – 15 in Sinhala, 04 in Tamil and 09 in English) • Daily front to back monitoring of each newspaper. • The newspapers monitored are the highest circulation newspapers in Sri Lanka. 2. Electronic Media (covering 09 TV channels, 08 in Sinhala and 01 in Tamil and 05 radio channels, 04 in Sinhala and 01 in Tamil) • Daily monitoring of each TV channel between the hours of 6.00AM–12.00AM and each Radio channel between the hours of 6.00AM–10.00AM and 5.00PM–9.00PM • The TV and radio channels monitored have high viewer/listenership • As discount packages offered by channels to candidates and parties vary, a 15% discount rate was applied to the final gross estimate to arrive at the final estimated figure 3.

  • Election Observation During a Pandemic: CMEV Activity Report
    Election Observation During a Pandemic: CMEV Activity Report Lockdown, quarantine, flattening the curve and shutdown are not the terms familiar to many. CMEV also faced new experiences and challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic situation. This document first provides an overview of some of the interventions made by CMEV in this period. It also details media coverage of CMEV’s activities and interventions. Finally, the document provides a snapshot of activity on CMEV’s official website and Facebook pages, as indicators of CMEV’s online operations during this period. The pre-election campaign period for the Parliamentary General Election 2020 was active since midnight of March 02, 2020 and CMEV has been recording an increasing number of campaign related complaints despite preferential numbers for candidates not even being issued. Those complaints were not entirely related to conventional election violence and violation related incidents as with elections in the past. Many of the complaints received were connected to the politicisation of relief measures provided by the government in the wake of the pandemic. One of the significant factors affecting CMEV’s work was attempting to run an election observation mission in a context that did not allow for access to our head office with significant travel restrictions also been imposed on our mobility. In addition, we have had to determine manner in which we are supposed to contribute to the election process while it has been continuously postponed due to its uncertain legal foundation. Despite this, CMEV staff have continued to carry out their duties as usual while being based at their respective residences during this restricted context.
