I heard one more thing Sihla language is similar to Oriya ???? is it also true ?

Sinhalese is more similar to the Sankritized Hindi IMHO. There are many common words. Also the grammatical structure of spoken Hindi is also Similar to Sinhala IMHO.

Isnt it Nepal birthplace of Buddha?

Yes, but there were no nation states with current boundaries back then.

India is significant to the Buddhists because it was in Gaya, Bihar where he attained enlightenment under the tree now known as the Bodhi Tree.

The Lord Buddha was born in 623 BC in the sacred area of Lumbini located in the Terai plains of southern Nepal

You didn't get what he said.

Budhdha was born in Bodh Gaya means Siddhartha became Budhdha in Bodh Gaya.

Lol. I dont quite understand. Sri Lanka has been pushed into the debt pool by Rajapakse govt and the current govt has no other option except to lease it to the Chinese to repay its loan. No Indian company is going to try to take over Hambantota port cos they feel atleast for the next 20-30 years or so, its commercial viability will be low. A major reason why it was taken for a 99 year lease.

Indian Govt is trying to replace Colombo as a transhipment hub for its cargoes with new ports with Vizhinjam and Kolachel. And as far as the things stand we are currently satisfied with Srisena govt for its good relations with Tamils and Muslims, not antagonising India and maintaining a friendly stance which was the one we expected from previous govt too.

Rajapaksha didn't push Sri Lanka into a debt pool. That is a blatant perpetuated by his political opponents. Infact during his tenure, foreign debt percentage was reduced against national GDP. The port is leased to China just to show that the port is a white elephant.

How can H'tota port's commercial viability is going to be low when the proposed "Kra Canal" is completed? Moreover, Where are the financial investigations done for the viability of the H'tota port? Which Indian companies have done it?

The perplexing this to me is that, when during Rajapaksha's time India cried fowl over Chinese submarine docking in the Sri Lankan ports. But India says nothing about impending Chinese take over of the H'tota port area? It seems that the only threat to Indian national security is Chinese subs docking in SL harbors and not that China is leasing a 15,000 acres of real estate just few hundred kilometers south of Indian mainland.

Of course Rajapakse pushed SL into debt pool. On what basis loans for port, airport and stadium was received and built? Airport doesnt has a single flight to name. Everything has become white elephant. Who did the financial studies warranting huge investment in Hambantota? And why did Hambantota failed leading to debt trap ending in leasing of soverign land to foreign entity.

In short Chinese Sri Lanka Company is in make. New form of imperialism has its one of the first victims. Sri Lanka. Next will be Pakistan.

H'tota port was a long standing proposal only materialized during Rajapaksha's tenure. So did the airport. Sri Lanka was looking for the possibility for a second airport for some time due to lack of expanding room of the current BIA. H'tota airport and harbor are built to work in conjunction with one another.

There is no debt trap created by these project. The economic mishaps have happened because of the incompetent handling of finances by the Sirisena government. The main cause for recent economic downturn is that foreign investors withdrawing their investments out of Sri Lanka.

You have evaded my main question again. Why do India has done nothing to prevent Chinese take over of H'tota port? Is that not a threat to Indian national security?

LOL keep burning about Pak China cooperation.

India has failed in Sri Lanka and you know it. Hiding behind debt or blaming Snapchat won't conceal the reality.

Do pray me what mishaps does the current govt has done that turned it into debt trap? Why does the current harbour and airport does not have any traffic? Nor any of the infrastructure have returned anything of any commercial value? Its been 4-5 years since they were built. So who did the feasability study?

And dont send me links. Explain.

Second, Indian companies can only invest or get control only if they feel they have some commercial value. Unlike Chinese govt which can give subsidy to Chinese company to take control (cos that is Chinese investment), Indian govt cannot give subsidy or incentive to Indian company to take over a port which is built by Chinese debt whose viability was always in doubt.

I have told you earlier. The current Sri Lankan government has slashed the fuel prizes by nearly 20% and increased the government sector salaries by close to 100 US$ for each employee when they came to power incurring massive burden on the economy. Furthermore, there laze free attitude at handling economic affairs and antegonization of the Chinese investments have driven the foreign investors away from the country.

They have destroyed the fragile balance of the Sri Lankan economy and then blame the boogeyman Mahinda Rajapaksha for their failings.

Hambantota Harbor has seeing traffic. It is a busy port now.

The Chinese-funded Magam Ruhunupura Mahinda Rajapaksa Port (MRMRP) in Hambantota has recorded revenue of Rs.5.39 billion for the year 2014, compared to Rs.585.2 million in 2013, statistics released by Sri Lanka Ports Authority showed (SLPA).

He further said that the debt owed by the Hambantota harbor, which amounts to a total of Rs. 192 billion, is being paid back now and a significant portion of the income earned from Colombo Harbor will be used to pay back the loans owed to the Chinese government for the construction of the Hambantota Port.

https://www.news.lk/news/business/i...bour-2015-annual-revenue-increased-by-8-3-pct

There is no need to sell the Hambantota port to China.

The Mattala airport is design to function alongside with the development of the H'tota harbor and it's neighboring industrial zone. There it is worthless to discuss why the airport doesn't attract many flights. Furthermore, the present government has no desire to utilize the airport to it's full potential because the credit will be gone the Mahinda Rajapaksha.

What is your opinion of the situation, when the proposed "Kra" Canal is opened? Give me some insight.

Only one burning is you as India has effectively kicked Pakistan out of SL.
