An EMAIL NOTE from Gus Mathews in UK, 25 March 2023 **
This a fascinating read that throws some light into the present-day financial woes of the current predicament in Sri Lanka. It was published some time ago, but it is as illuminating as ever.

** Gus Mathews is a digital Sri Lankan friend whom I got to know when Sanjeewa Jayaweera passed away tragically in Sri Lanka. He was in Perth then but is back now in the neighbourhood of London(?). As far I could gather his ethnic background is liquorice-all-sorts in not untypical Sri Lanka modalities: namely, a mix of Sinhala-Burgher and what have you; in brief, ana chchaaru Lankan and thus in the Thuppahi box in its best and broadest sense.
It is his political gnus and sensibility, however, that I have come to value in the course of our exchanges. So, TRUTHSEEKER should be well-pleased with his assessment of his/her analysis one year back.
Alas, “Truthseeker” is in a spot somewhere in the Western world that demands the protection of anonymity.
