A poster spotted in Galle this weekend, featuring a large smiling President Rajapaksa, reads:
Avoid meddling in Our Motherland
Do not Touch Out Leader
Dear Leader,
Excellency MAHINDA RAJAPAKSHA,
You Will also Take Our Country to Prosperity
You are Our Great Leader,
You are Our President,
We'll Protect You With Our Last Drop of Blood,
We are Prepared to Fight on Your Behalf!"

We need your support
Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.
Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
We need your support in keeping our journalism going. Support our work today.
