Tragedy and strategy of coconut


Not only coconut but also aricanut and peanut and all other nuts facing a threat of decaying and vanishing due to high tech material development plans and implementations and increasing population. those who consumed our coconut in the past , i guess now ready to export their coconuts to this island.  local trade authorities and traders cannot decrease the price of coconut again due to high jet mechanisms of local economy. But apparently, thanks to God the governments yet to come or the government still exists do not have tto spend much money on 'importing coconut' is planning to import coconut in the future. i have no idea how much the government will have to pay for a piece. 

I thought it is easier to find a solution locally other than purchasing Europe coconut or continental coconut but now that the experts says it is cheaper to import coconut from another country, i too started believing so. what are the advantages of implementing such suggestions of the MP's of local parliament? One of the advantages is that by doing so, purchasing coconut from another country, Sri Lanka can contribute development of economies of other countries , globally. 

According to what i realize, now the local consumers have learned other strategies, low expenses  mechanisms , such as reducing the quantities they consume per day, start experimenting other strategies such as 'cook without coconut' yet i do not know to what extent the local consumer will have to minimize / decrease the quantities consuming.  

i thought it is easier and advantageous if the government tries to directly purchase coconut from the growers without purchasing from the trade middlemen. Now that there is a suggested mechanism they do not have to worry about implementing such mechanisms.

i thought it is good if the authorities try to study the reasons as to why the local prices of coconut grown locally increases day by day can possibly apply a permanent treatment. But now that they have a solution no need of thinking of implementing such mechanisms. 

i thought , it is good if the government can give a good rate that the private trader offers them,  the local growers , village level, district level traders, keeping a little margin for government , they can give and sell coconut for a reasonable, affordable price to local consumers. Yet, now that they have decided to import coconut from another country , there is no requirement to establish such a mechanism in the country. 

at the beginning of jet pricing rate of locally grown coconut, i felt little sad when thinking of consuming kiribath (milk rice) , kiri hodi (gravy cooked of coconut milk) ala kari (potato curry) pol pittu, pol rottee in the future, but not any more, now i feel enormously happy thanks to government's new coconut and rice plan. 

Hats off to the government's new suggested 'coconut and rice plan'.

Getup Stand up ...............





Getup Stand-Up for your right. Said BOB MARLEY. i cannot think of a single person who has not heard about that song. people still use that song for various motivational purposes. this song lead me to write something about votes and rights of others. i guess getup, stand -up the melody of the song or the lyrics cannot be stolen because it is not something that others have not heard about before. 

Vote is a right, who doesn't know that? it is not a right won just few years ago. 

i watched the Manchurian Candidate yesterday. i felt that election business is same everywhere. it is just ways and approaches of candidates and the issues they targeted at to earn votes, how they respond and face each others' opposition candidates and their aims and objectives differ from person to person, often country to country.  

i thought of voting for any candidate who tries to safe guard the right of authors. right to write etc.  i thought of voting any who get the side of those who try to do something genuine using their born talents or the talents they have enhanced through education and opportunities given or offered to them.

i think in this modern world we live, unlike in the ancient eras , most cannot protect their computerized stuff. it is not something common to this region or to few, but everywhere. for such issues no agency can help other than the 'internet security systems' and sometimes it is not possible due to those who know how to challenge such mechanisms. it is something that each and every person should try to cultivate within. i.e. though you see no tags such as 'all rights reserved', though you see an icon named or called as ' copy', paste or download', though you have the cash power or political power every candidate or a supporter must refrain from doing such things.

i have often heard about such situations, people complaining of stolen creations of others, altering applying them in another duplicate creations (modifications) the way they like.

i think we all must vote against such systems  or mechanisms.
