Introduction
This essay was written 20 years ago. It was
a reply to an essay which had strange ideas such as JVP was wicked because its
members did not know English. There were several such odd points covered in the
essay. But strangely, the point on JVP and English does so closely with the
decision to make law college English.
Only thing permanent in this world is
impermanence or change. Therefore, after 20 years I do not think C. A.
Chandraprema has not changed at least some of his views about this human world ....

How to avoid water shortages and power cuts

It is a strange thing in this country with so many rivers flowing into the sea right round the island, as soon as the rains cease there is a drought and there are thousands affected with no possibility of getting anything out of what they have cultivated, be it rice or vegetables. And while the rains last there are a number of places that get inundated with roads impassable and people displaced from their abodes.
If one recalls the history of this blessed isle it was King Parakramabahu the Great who said that not a drop of water should be allowed to go into the sea without being made use of.

There is, of course, a sacred precedent for this kind of undeserved torture: but you cannot put up that plea in mitigation of the punishment when you stand face to face with the majesty of the law. In case you are eager to know what I am driving at, let me say at once that this is just a preamble to a story about an illustrious editor of the Ceylon Daily News who escaped by the skin of his teeth from spending a holiday in the Welikade Prison. ....
