Greece – Plebiscite No Vote Victory
July 5, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
Hello Everyone!
Today has been a remarkable day for Greece.
Greece had a plebiscite on austerity. The people delivered the message with NO vote.
I would like to convey my heartfelt Congratulations to the citizens in Greece and the government headed by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis of the political party Syriza along with independent party in coalition representing the people of Greece.
You have truly spoken in the referendum with your NO vote. Your rejection of austerity.
I consider this a victory to Democracy.
Democracy is in action for the fist time in the world standing up against counterproductive policy.
Greece introduced democracy to the world. Once again Greece restored democracy to make people choice relevant.
Citizens in Greece, you have taken a bold decision that required courage and enormous will. You have demonstrated your pledge of allegiance to your country.
Every one of you must be proud of yourself for this incredible action.
The immediate future might be turbulent for you.
You have been through so much in the past 8 years.
You are in a position to weather the storm. This will not be anything as compared with what you have endured up until now.
There is lot of speculation and commentary about what might happen to Greece?
This is directly related to your present and future. All that you need to remember is Greece has been around for a long time well before and during the crisis.
Greece will be able to deal with any problems now on.
You had to go through extremely difficult time. The world witnessed your pain.
Life experience serves as the strength to face any challenges in the long term.
When you reflect on the past you realize that you were able to survive the worst time in your life and now have the resolve not to succumb to any crisis.
The time might appear uncertain with no guaranteed outcome. However, you should not let this become a permanent situation.
Mistakes made in the past are not to be repeated again.
Strong commitment is required to face the upcoming changes and with due diligence, wisdom and perseverance you could transform the economic status from recession to recovery.
You have stood behind the government headed by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and the political party Syriza as well as the coalition.
The government will have to move ahead to lead the country in the path of progress.
The first step would be to find financial solutions to the cash strapped economy and emerging out of capital deficiency. Furthermore implementing critical fiscal and monetary policy besides improving macroeconomic conditions and adopting result-oriented strategy are the keys to success.
You will not be alone in this journey.
I will be providing you with a comprehensive guidance and restructuring of the economy for your reference and application.
Unity and collective responsibility would make the task less burdensome.
Greece has taken a new birth with hope that will turn into reality through efficiency and determination to prevail.
Good Luck to citizens in Greece and the government under leadership Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and others or speedy economic revival.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

GREECE – Plebiscite on TROIKA Austerity
July 4, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
Greece forced into referendum on austerity by IMF, ECB and EU is greed driven strategy.
Greed is a terrible disease and those affected by this illness could contain symptoms with self-restriction. When they are overwhelmed with greed they succumb to fate. Greed consumes them.
Greed is the cause for them to become international predators than creditors.
Even Jesus Christ could not reason with moneylenders and compelled to use violence. Jesus Christ whipped them and condemned their unreasonable conduct.
TROIKA could address this matter through proper engagement with the present government and accommodate reality into equation.
Austerity has been devastating for nations and the people in Greece are simply threatened to submit to TROIKA’s extortion.
TROIKA and forces galvanizing YES vote in the plebiscite do not necessarily win with fraudulent means to show victory.
The YES vote to TROIKA would give legitimacy on debt slavery. The YES voters are in kamikaze operation for they are not only doomed, their careless action would make the remaining citizens to share similar destiny.
TROIKA’s bailout requirements is a direct claim and control over Greece economy and human capital i.e. the citizens to bear debt burden lasting over generations when the survival of the present population is made nearly impossible with their austerity policy.
Austerity on Greece is prosperity for TROIKA. Again not everlasting as anything founded on deceit and exploitation would expedite the source conclusion.
TROIKA is clueless about austerity considering the life of opulence they maintain as entitlement at Greece and other nations expense.
In the Dark Age, human mind is able to relate to pain only through personal experience. That’s why there is apathy to human suffering among those prioritizing personal well-being and pleasure.
The financial institutions behind GREECE meltdown were handsomely rewarded for the reckless and unlawful indulgence as investment bankers trading hedge funds with toxic securities in the global market.
These firms were treated with special attention using United States taxpayer funds in the bailout.
Now United States as the chief controller of IMF together with EU and ECB lack credibility in their demand on GREECE and people of other recession hit economies to oblige.
The people are enduring the sins committed by financial brokers and major players in the windfall adopting unscrupulous practice.
The compare and contrast between Germany and Greece do not reflect the facts and as usual missing in substance.
Greece contribution to the world with philosophers like Aristotle, Socrates, Thales and Epicures to name a few amongst several renowned in this field, astronomers – Aristarchus and Eudoxus, physicists viz. Archimedes, mathematician Pythagoras and political scientists are slighted in the biased comparisons presented as analysis by TROIKA hired communication media.
Germany success as euro zone member and leading state in EU is because of exceptional advantage to Germany over the rest in the 28 members bloc.
Germany – the predominantly export oriented nation specializing in heavy metals and high end manufacturing goods related to automobile, aviation and other transportation industry use euro in leveraging against Greece and counterparts from eastern Europe in trade.
German deutsche mark was not feasible in the export trade especially with Europe in deep recession and vagaries in the global economy.
On the other hand euro facilitates Germany to neutralize volatility via distribution amongst members in EU.
The debt saddled states like Greece, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland (PIGS) and eastern European countries are essentially providing for Germany in the balancing act with investors raking profits in Greek bonds compared with low yielding German security in the lending exchange amongst TROIKA.
The banks capitalization exclusively focused on lending for debt repayment to TROIKA ignores economic development in Greece and PIGS states.
Greece returning to original currency drachma would enable export to developing nations and emerging economies besides tourism generating revenue with global visitors from far and wide.
Germany described as nation not paying high wages as Greece is a misnomer.
In fact Germany social security payments and unemployment benefits are far greater in the industrialized world and adapted by Australia in the hand out to those choosing to remain unemployed leaving the immigrants to drive the economy.
Australian dole checks largely drawn by white majority in the country is the influence of Germany policy.
Germany industrial output is from East Germany more than the west given the hard labor tradition under Soviet rule. Germany productivity also attributed to immigrants in Germany despite reservations towards immigrants in deutsche land.
Greece need to allocate budget to expand broadband access and invest in technology based government services that would cut down bureaucracy and shift the labor force in technology oriented jobs for efficiency and transparency.
Greece could also mobilize the nation towards renewable energy like solar and hydropower minimizing energy dependency and costs in the public and private sector.
Greece anti-corruption measures beginning with government from top to bottom would build trust and seriousness in the treatment of the epidemic.
Further on the economic front – Greece needs to use the natural resources such as marble, clay, nickel, coal, bauxite, ore and chromate notwithstanding lignite, petroleum, iron ore, zinc, lead, magnetite, salt and hydropower potential to the maximum.
Greece could promote local production and business in these areas with incentives to small, medium and large companies inviting subscribers to government projects and spearhead domestic campaign to bring offshore holdings to jumpstart economy.
Agriculture land to grow crops and produces for the country and overseas markets would be another economic boost alleviating poverty and unemployment.
Tourism showcasing the Greek islands and Parthenon’s and other attractions would be lucrative with drachma as the currency rather than euro to stifle competition from neighbors on euro currency that makes travel expensive for foreign tourists visiting Europe.
These are preliminary steps to rebuild Greece economy and improve financial situation.
Greece should recognize that existence in tandem with EU and TROIKA financing would only deplete the treasury. The money borrowed from them on austerity basis proved destructive thus far.
Calling for direct investments and job-oriented programs are the meaningful ways to revive economy.
The resistance from TROIKA in this context exemplifies profiteering from citizens’ economic misery that cannot be extended any longer.
Lending for exacerbating economic woes via austerity is TROIKA doctrine. The scenario is imposed with no flexibility for reconciliation.
TROIKA trend is unsustainable for them and the victims of austerity.
The prevalent austerity to intensify citizens plight best renounced and instead the practical approach to resurrect economy is the viable solution to Greece problem.
Greece is at the crossroads and citizens exercising discernment with NO vote in the referendum paramount to SAVE GREECE from foreign seize of assets along with economic and political freedom.
Nation prevails with people pledging allegiance to sovereignty.
May wisdom and rationale provide guidance in the Greece referendum!
Good Luck! to citizens and the government in Greece in the solidarity against austerity.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

Greece – Economic Crisis And Troika Deal or Extortion?
July 2, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
The ongoing economic crisis in the Mediterranean country Greece originated from the sub prime mortgage debacle in the United States in December 2007.
The hedge fund and international securities traded by investment firms nowadays as equity management companies viz. Goldman Sachs then engaged in Greece is initially responsible for Greece economic recession due to bad decisions and directives including misrepresentation to creditors at that time.
Goldman Sachs along with many financial institutions behind gross mishandling and mismanagement triggering economic bleeding in early 2008 experienced earlier in Iceland and endured until today in Greece, Portugal, Spain, Ireland and Italy viz. PIGS…in Western and Northern Europe were bailed out with no stipulations and granted taxpayers funds exceeding trillion in the United States treating the cash payout to bankers as their privilege.
Subsequently the global economic meltdown with severity in Europe weighted down Greek economy tied with euro zone.
The euro as the national currency in Greece and throughout EU excluding England with over optimism on the common unit has failed to deliver the value pegged to the unstable and superficial commodity.
European Union policy of austerity on Greece strangling the country with demands on economic reforms primarily favoring the international creditors viz. International Monetary Fund (IMF), European Central Bank (ECB) and European Commission (EC) or EU presided financial package essentially behind Greece default.
The troika imposed austerity to streamline spending in the absence of economic growth stimulants in Greece evidently debilitated the cash strapped nation.
The two bailouts to Greece in 2010 and 2012 €240 billion ($272 billion) substantially expended in servicing the debt to international lenders viz. the troika – IMF, ECB and EC as well as the financial institutions with stake in Greece rather than direct investments in the economy promoting employment and business prospects for the citizens across the country.
The massive layoffs, salary cuts and pension reductions in compliance with EU bailout requirement further exacerbated the economic situation.
Following the adverse effects of austerity, the Greek electorate elected the anti-austerity political party – Syriza headed by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras forming the coalition government with the independent party in Greece.
The ruling party in Greece consistently maintained negotiations with international lenders since election on January 25, 2015 alongside systematic improvement in reform focused on alleviating poverty and adopting strategy to satisfy obligations on the bailout program.
The troika conditions to incumbent government request on the six months extension to bailout deal deserve attention.
Greece approached the international lenders aka Troika to grant from the profits on ECB held Greek bonds to meet the immediate financial needs. The fund €12 billion ($13.4 billion) was scheduled as the offer.
In that amount €1.6 billion ($1.79 billion) payment to the IMF on June 30, 2015 was the priority and now that date has expired. Another €6.7 billion is to be settled with ECB in July and August.
Greece was offered a possible bailout not intended to relieve the economy from deterioration instead to enable Greece to pass that amount €1.6 billion ($1.79 billion) to IMF as loan payment at exorbitant interest rates and prepare for payments to ECB within weeks of receiving the third bailout amount.
Greece essentially used by lenders to profit from lending through money circulation amongst them under the pretext of rescue scheme with Greek citizens forced to bear the lending costs and high interest.
- Reducing pension payments that would only affect consumer spending with impact on retail business and ripple effects on the wholesale and manufacturing on domestic products while restricting import from EU and abroad.
- Increase Value Added Taxes (VAT) – in the dire economic environment, the average consumers forced to pay more taxes in addition to hikes up until now to payback lenders is an extreme measure contributing to consumer woes and limiting business activity in return.
- Military Expenditure cuts – perhaps setting the stage for complete NATO control over the nation.
- Privatization of country’s airports – the proposition from EU and lenders is a deviation from relevant options and subscribe to ulterior goals.
In response to international lenders harsh austerity imposition;
Greece Government reforms comprised – efficient tax collection methods, social security system and streamlining government bureaucracy. The additional steps included anti-corruption and promoting business as well as backing privatization in the economic sector.
As a result of Greece government and Troika failure on the agreement, the referendum on July 5 is expected to reject or accept EU, ECB and IMF rigorous austerity.
Despite Greece administration’s numerous concessions and adjustments to accommodate EU and lenders chronic treatment evidently a flawed recommendation,
The lenders declined the roadmap that had 70 percent of Troika trails and 30 percent Greece government shelter to save the economically deprived population from abject poverty.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has called the nation for NO vote on EU austerity in the upcoming referendum.
The last minute overtures from the Greek leadership to EU and creditors has been in vain.
Greece citizens need to understand the entire scenario and act accordingly to relieve them from the persisting economic calamity and potential power vacuum paving way for EU and partners to install the government of their choice like in Ukraine.
The present Greece government is poised to resign upon YES referendum to EU and international creditors ultimatum.
EU and creditors stringent austerity on economically struggling nations has been counterproductive. Yet there is no acknowledgment from them and the hard line approach towards Greece is similar to the neighbor Cyprus account.
Cyprus bailout was tied to closure of the nation’s second largest bank, Laiki Bank and a 47.5 percent cut on deposits over 100,000 euros at the Bank of Cyprus for recapitalization.
The same formula was applied to Iceland problem and led to brink of economic collapse.
Cyprus capital Nicosia was hamstrung like Greece now and Cypriot parliament pushed into first post-bailout budget prior to receiving €83 million as installment payment from Troika in late 2013 and early 2014,
The austerity on Cyprus was identical to instructions to Greece – pensions and salaries were targeted with the outcome being dramatic escalation in poverty and unemployment in the country.
Interestingly Troika projection on Cyprus economic status after EU and euro zone austerity was the gross domestic product contraction to 7.7 percent in 2013.
IMF, ECB and EC/EU prolonged austerity only tightens the noose around citizens to submit to unreasonable unaffordable trend.
IMF and World Bank legacy in transforming developing nations to banana republic as it happened in Argentina, Panama, Chile, Indonesia and Mexico…are few of many countries drawn into the debt dragnet.
The developments against Cyprus and Greece serve as strong reminder for the people to protect their sovereignty.
The international creditors regrettable actions thus far confirm the reputation as predators ignoring the fact that austerity alone without revenue not viable for economic recovery.
Greece is confronted with EU and euro zone pursuit to topple present government for the stance against austerity based on reality.
If the referendum on July 5 anything like the event on Scotland independence with fraudulent means generating the predetermined outcome, Greece future would be bleak.
EU attempt to expel Greece government with Prime Minister Alexis Tspras is tactfully deployed creating circumstances for the government to seek people consent on EU austerity in the background of Syriza party elected to power to spare the citizens from economic plight inflicted via austerity.
In a way EU’s tactical move is to turn people against the government with Troika officials not entertaining Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras modified reforms to satisfy lender’s extraordinary gains from human misery.
Greece would survive the economic and political storm on its shores in returning to original currency – drachma for euro survival is not possible considering the lenders’ and EU irrational economic growth resistant strategy crippling economies to the point of no return.
Greece was the first nation to introduce democracy to the world and when democracy is threatened by forces to unseat the caring government that prioritize people over self-interest, the citizens must rise to the occasion and safeguard liberty that would then guarantee economic progress.
Greece voting NO to austerity on July 5 and retaining their honor by rallying with the current government opposed to EU plan that denies decent wages, pensions and business opportunity for jobs would demonstrate fairness prevailing over darkness.
Troika deal is nothing more than extortion exploiting the critical moment in Greece.
Greece defiance to EU and international banks austerity is the saving grace.
Greece unity to proudly defend the country from overt control under the guise of monetary aid would prevent Greece economy from free fall.
The clarion call to Greece is to back your government under the leadership of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and alliance to overcome the external challenge.
The major stumbling block is EU and euro zone membership with inherent complexity such as any submission on economic matter is subject to review, debate and approval by every other member state parliament and political consensus within.
The irony – EU preaching austerity hardly observes the tradition with EU officials and delegations appointments and salaries being an extravagant affair. Even to hire the EU appointee, the amount spent in the recruitment process is not less than million euro.
EU insistence on fiscal discipline exempt them from the protocol.
Good Luck and best wishes to Greece and the government of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras in the speedy economic revival as an independent nation.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

Africa – Burundi – Power Struggle And Electoral Process
June 27, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
The East African nation Burundi is forced into political crisis with incumbent President Pierre Nkurunziza seeking third consecutive five year term in office after serving from 2005 until 2015.
Burundi constitution allows maximum two terms in office. President Pierre Nkurunziza decision to extend term in office and subsequent measures to compete in the Presidential election has led to public protests with government violent crackdown deploying militia against unarmed citizens and opposition factions plunging the nation into political instability.
Not long ago Burundi was ravaged in civil war over ethnic clashes between Hulu and Tutsi tribes that began in 1993 and ended in 2005.
The election of President Pierre Nkurunziza in 2005 and the administration misuse of power until now evidently prompted unsuccessful military coup followed by arrests and unrest in the country.
Election is meaningful upon the process remaining fair, free, constitutional, transparent and most importantly devoid of corruption and violence.
Unfortunately in contemporary politics such expectation has become a tall order even though the electoral process without these basic requirements facilitates undesirable and unworthy choices to be elected to power only to abuse authority verifiable in legacy.
Furthermore removal of taxpayer funded extraordinary privileges and benefits in public office including means to earn kickbacks from various deals with economic and other sectors that is a major attraction in the fast track to wealth amassment in politics would skim disingenuous and unscrupulous entities from participation.
Politics would then perhaps attract selfless and genuinely dedicated members to do the needful for the people and the nation.
Additionally, anyone could always engage in community and national service using personal wealth and resources for that would confirm sincerity and commitment rather than aspiring political positions at taxpayers’ expense predominantly to achieve self and vested interests.
The leaderships after completing term in office would be wise to contribute positively as a member of civil society and renounce ambitions that are counterproductive.
The purpose behind constitution is to remind leaders and political members to abide by the rules and not slight the document to suit their convenience.
Any political system governed by hunger for power, fortune and individual goals to prolong self-rule and dynasty violate democracy denying the nation – republic status.
Burundi President Pierre Nkurunziza stepping down from office enabling other candidates to contest in the Presidential and national election would be honorable and set precedence in the present and future to respect the rule of law exempting none in the country.
The action would save the nation from unnecessary bloodshed and chaos for Burundi could no longer afford or sustain turmoil.
The lawmakers as law-breakers trend are the reason behind dysfunctional government.
The noble path is to lead by example demonstrating loyalty and trustworthiness through deeds not unending desire to claim authority against population will.
The people in Burundi deserve peaceful existence to rebuild lives towards progress and prosperity.
The development across the state possible when national leadership and government engage in constructive role and refrain from unleashing people paid services like police force and army to quell citizens voice.
Prioritizing country over self and political motives is necessary for resolution.
Best wishes to citizens in Burundi in gaining recognition for people choice governance.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

Global Issues with Impact on Population – Part 1
June 10, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
The topic is a reflection on the Contemporary Ruling Class Declining Supremacy And People’s Odyssey For Freedom.
1. Region – North Africa
Yemen – Saudi Arabia invasion with United States, Israel and other western allies support killing scores of people is a sign of decadency caught in a whirlpool with aggressors heading towards pitfall.
Libya – Hegemony message to the people having transformed the nation into terror haven following the fall of the western ally, the despotic regime is stability possible only under iron fist rule conforming to imperial doctrine.
Egypt – Authoritarianism being hegemony hallmark, the citizens deposed governments and chieftains are not only protected but also reinstated to remind Egyptians that birth of democracy would be aborted at the cost of their lives and livelihood.
Tunisia – The move towards democracy subsequent to overthrow of yet another western ally and autocratic ruler consistently disrupted with political assassination of people choice leader confirming hegemony preference for repressive governance.
Sudan – The oil rich nation and the largest country split into two states – Sudan and South Sudan in accordance with divide and conquer imperial strategy.
South Sudan – Hegemony installed government and opposition pitted against each other leaving thousands dead and millions fleeing villages and towns for survival.
Sudanese plight persists beyond Darfur ethnic cleansing.
Morocco, Algeria and Western Sahara – Hegemony with key allies like Saudi Arabia, Qatar and alike funded terror networks infiltration – al Qaeda and offshoots presence in these countries maintained to sabotage peaceful existence.
—————————————————————————————————
2. Region – West Africa
Mali – Gold, ivory and other goods comprise the main resources of the nation. UNSC P5+1 authorized military intervention by the former colonizer, France under the pretext to rescue nation from civil war having removed the earlier government through military coup besides curbing the natives – Tuareg tribes from seeking fair living conditions as indigenous groups and citizens of the West African nation needlessly brought under hegemony shelling boosting defense stockpiles demand.
Mali was also a victim of biological warfare – with the outbreak of deadly Ebola virus claiming many lives in that country.
Ghana – Also known for possession of precious metals gold, ivory and minerals – sharing impact from political turmoil in neighboring Ivory Coast renamed in the European occupancy as Côte d’Ivoire with hegemony approved political factions behind prolonged instability.
Ivory Coast economic fortune – oil and gas, fresh water, fertile agricultural land and pineapple plantations among many natural resources that deprives the people from preventing foreign i.e. hegemony interference in political affairs.
Burkina Faso – The nation remains constantly under siege post assassination of the popular leader Thomas Sankara for defying hegemony intrusion. The nation found with abundant minerals and marble attracts direct western involvement.
Nigeria – Another oil wealth state forced to contend with hegemony created Boko Haram terror outfit to conduct false flag events and disrupt normal life nationwide.
Nigerian leadership compliance with hegemony directions confirms influence over politics, economy and social problems contributing to religious confrontations between Christians and Muslims along with tribal feuds persisting to stifle national unity.
Niger – Hegemony chosen territory to invade Iraq in 2003 is not necessarily excluded from hegemonic goals due to oil and mining enrichment.
Senegal and Sierra Leone – The French colonies then and even now with France extensive engagement throughout West and Central Africa cannot be ignored. Sierra Leone in the aftermath of worst genocide is profitable to arms dealer and weapons supply from major powers in exchange for oil in Africa.
Sierra Leone affected with ravaging civil wars and Ebola epidemic is the result of hegemony policy to incapacitate effective self-governance in Africa.
Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Gambia, Mauritania, Liberia, Togo, Island of Saint Helena, Sao Tome and Principe are faced with United States, EU and Pan African cohorts fomenting corruption and chaos via war zones for economic and strategic dominance.
The people in all of the above destinations are the victims of hegemony quest for global supremacy.
Poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, despair and destitution is deemed the destiny to benefit the profiteers of violence, greed and feudalism.
The segment will resume with focus on all nations in different regions of the world.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

World – Political And Electoral Reform 2015
May 27, 2015
By Padmini Arhant
The incognito power installs proxy governments to implement policies favorable to privileged class in global society.
New World Order with one world government emerged as United Nations Organization comprising unipolar system – UNSC with P5 + 1 exclusive club in possession of veto power.
UNSC target nations deemed adversaries for the members and their allies waging economic warfare via trade sanctions depriving people in Cuba and North Korea with basic food supplies and survival means until now. The military invasion through conventional ground troops and air raids is another option.
The recent activities in Yemen, Syria and Iraq, the drone attacks in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Africa and Latin America assert supremacy.
The latest strategy is sponsoring terrorism in Libya, Syria, Iraq and North, East, West and Central Africa.
Elsewhere false flag events staged to smear nations and oust governments perceived as obstruction to hegemony ambition such as in Ukraine and Thailand. The constant unrest created in Venezuela and neighboring states in South and Central America cannot be ignored.
The other New World Order prototype is European Union with euro currency in the euro zone. The results are evident in member states like Greece, Cyprus, Spain, Italy, Portugal…and Ireland.
New World Order directs loyalists in the so-called democracies and non-democratic states across the globe.
The subversion of democracy witnessed in elections held to legitimize illegitimate authority.
The elections claimed democratic is infiltrated with special interests funding. Then there are domestic and foreign bidders in political campaigns gaining priority on legislations and corporate influence on political body hailed economic milestones in the convoluted version.
Not to mention hegemony controlled social media, press and entertainment deployed in mind manipulation exemplifying distortion gone awry. The educational institutions are also used for this purpose.
New World Order (NWO) rule and aspirations are unsustainable considering the disastrous experience thus far.
The clean up actions are paramount to restore sanity, sensibility and responsibility facilitating new beginning.
The citizens’ plight as labor force, consumers, taxpayers and electorate could be alleviated in initiating fundamental change in politics with necessary applications in other domains.
Current political structure is premised on extraordinary power, hierarchy with agencies and bureaucracy as expansive government. There are archaic designations in certain so-called democracies maintained to prolong imperial era. The political representation designed to achieve hegemonic goals and preserve corruption culture.
In pseudo democracy projected as functioning republic viz. India and alike – hegemony choices are rewarded with not one but two key posts like defense and finance ministry despite losing election i.e. constituents rejected candidate in national election are appointed to important positions against people’s will.
The taxpayer money is wasted in political extravagance promoting self-image and profiteering from statewide canteens (cafeteria) driving restaurateurs out of business, the other extremes are building and unveiling personal statues not excluding auctions to trumpet political figures and upper echelons price tag.
While significant population nationwide is forced into abject poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy and unemployment, the political fanfare at states and national level squandering citizens tax contributions is a routine affair.
Accordingly following recommendations are made to prevent abuse of power.
- Downsizing government along with extended affiliations to contain excess operational expenditure.
- The lavish accommodations, perks, benefits, vacations at taxpayers expense to public officials from top to bottom eliminated as austerity measure.
- Fiscal discipline on government limiting personnel or entourage accompanying political members within and outside the country. All costs to be accounted and audited by independent body and made available as public record.
- The enormous income derived in cash and kind as bribes on government contracts and favors due to powerful positions is not possible upon stripping discretionary rights in the decision-making process.
- Briefly, political evolution is required with emphasis on public service representing the people and not elements or agenda threatening sovereign status.
At present, the three branches of government – the executive, legislative and judiciary are reserved for the affluent and bourgeois in society with incentives ranging from luxury to immunity on crimes not barring treason.
Notwithstanding the eligibility criteria – complicity to foreign run enterprise.
Hence, there is no desire to perform national duty and fulfill constitutional oath to serve constituency and country.
Removing opulence and entitlements from political career would then make selfless motives the reason for joining politics and appealing to genuinely committed citizens to come forward in serving community, nation and humanity at large.
In the absence of political and electoral reform, the electoral mandate obtained by deception would continue to be misused with no end in sight in human suffering.
Darkness is dispelled with light and rising to the occasion would demonstrate the populace might.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

இந்தியா – தமிழ் நாடு அரசியல்

எழுத்தாளர் – பத்மினி அர்ஹந்த்
தமிழ் நாட்டின் அரசியலை திரை படமாகக் கருதி குடி மக்களை ஏமாற்றுவது கடுமையான தண்டனைக்கு ஆளாகிறது. அரசியலை ஒரு நாடகம் போல் நடத்தி திரை பட நடிகையை நடிக்க வைப்பது பெருமையான காரியம் அல்ல.
இந்த தெருக் கூத்து ஜன நாயக ஸ்தானத்தை அழிப்பதுமில்லாமல் மக்களின் அறிவை ஏளனம் செய்வதாகும்.
ஊழல் மற்றும் கொலை, கொள்ளை, கள்ள நோட்டு பதித்து கள்ள வோட்டு மூலம் பதவிக்கு வந்து அதிகாரத்தை தவறாக பயன் படுத்தி மாநிலத்தை சுய ராஜியமாக்கி தன்னுடைய அஹங்காரத்தை தெரியப்படுத்தும் குற்றவாளிகளை முதல் அமைச்சராக அமர்த்துவது சீரழிவாகும்.
தமிழ் நாடு முன்னேற்றம் வழி – பல ஆண்டு காலம் மற்றும் தற்சமயம் ஆட்சி புரிந்து வரும் அரசியல் கட்சிகள், கட்சியின் அதிபதி, சகல உருபினருடன் நிராகரித்து, அதற்கு பதில் மக்கள் அவரவர் தொகுதியில் நேர்மை, நீதி, ஒழுக்கம், அறிவு, திறமை, அனுபவம் மற்றும் கண்ணியமான நபர்களை தேர்ந்தெடுப்பது அவசியமாகும். பிறகு மக்கள் குறிப்பிட்டவர்கள் ஒன்று சேர்ந்து கட்சியை உருவாக்கி தேர்தல் சீர்திருத்தம் நிறை வேற்ற வேண்டும்.
இந்த விஷயத்தில் மக்கள் கவனம் தேவை. தமிழ் நாடு மற்றும் பாரதம் முழுதும் அரசியல் கட்சிகள் அந்நியர்களின் பிரதிநிதி. ஆகையால் இவர்கள் மாநிலத்திற்கும் தேசத்திற்கும் துரோகம் செய்வதில் சிறிதும் தயங்குவதில்லை. இப்படி இருக்கையில், மக்கள் நலனிற்காக இங்கு வழங்கப்படும் எந்த யோசனையையும் தன் சுயநலத்திற்காக உபயோகிக்க பல பேர் வருவதில் சந்தேகமில்லை. அதனால் மக்களின் பகுத்தறிதல் மிகவும் வேண்டியது.
அரசியல் வாதிகளுக்கு தேர்தல் ஒரு நுழைவு, தன்னுடைய சர்வாதிகாரத்தை மக்கள் மீது சுமத்துவதும், பதவியில் இருக்கும் பொழுது மாநிலத்தின் வருமானத்தையும், மக்களின் வரிகளையும் சூறையாடும் சந்தர்ப்பத்தை இவர்கள் வீண் போக விடுவதில்லை.
மற்றபடி நீதி வழக்கையும் கூட மிரட்டல் லஞ்சம் மூலம் தனக்கு சாதகமாக திருப்பி மீண்டும் பதவிக்கு வருவது வழக்கம் ஆயினும், இப்படிப்பட்ட அரசாங்கம் பதவி, புகழ், பொருள் பேராசையின் அடிமையாக இருக்கையில், தனக்கு தகுந்த நடவடிக்கையும் கடை பிடிக்கிறார்கள். இவர்களின் ஒவ்வொரு செயலிலும் தன்னுடைய ஆட்சியை நீடிக்கும் ஆர்வத்தைக் காணலாம்.
தானம், தருமம் நடப்பது மக்களின் சொத்தை உபயோகித்து அதையும் வோட்டாக மாற்றி அரசாளும் வெறியை பார்க்க முடிகிறது.
உண்மையாக தேசம் அல்லது மாநிலம் மேல் பற்று உள்ளவர்கள் முதலாவது – ஊழல், சட்டத்தை பேரம் பேசி வாங்குவது, உத்தமி வேடம் போட்டு மக்களுக்கு நம்பிக்கை துரோகம் செய்ய மாட்டார்கள். இரண்டாவது – அரசியலில் சேர்ந்த நாள் முதல் இந்நாள் வரை கொள்ளையடித்த மக்களின் பணத்தை திரும்ப மக்களிடம் ஒப்படைத்து, பதவி மோகத்தை துறந்து தன்னுடைய சொந்த செல்வத்தை மாநிலத்தின் வளர்ச்சிக்கும், மக்களின் செழிப்பதிர்க்காக கொடுப்பார்கள். மூன்றாவது தெய்வங்களையும் கையாள இவர்கள் சலைப்பதில்லை.
இந்த தரம் கெட்டவர்கள் மத்திய கிழக்கு அதாவது மிடில் ஈஸ்ட் நாடுகளில் உள்ள கொடூர ஆட்சியின் பண்பாட்டை தமிழ் நாட்டில் அமலாக்குகிறார்கள். மக்களை அடக்கி ஒடுக்கி போலீஸ் என்கௌன்ட்டர் இல்லாவிட்டால் பெண்களையும் குடும்பத்தையும் துன்புறுத்தும் முறைகளை பின்பற்றுகிறார்கள்.
பிரஸ், பத்திரிக்கை பற்றா குறைக்கு தனது டெலிவிஷன் செந்நெல் வழியாக வதந்தியும், தன்னை புகழ்ந்து பொய்யான நிகழ்ச்சிகளை காண்பித்து மக்கள் சிந்திக்க முடியாதபடி மூலையையும் தாக்குகிறார்கள்.
இதன் காரணம் சினிமா நட்சத்திரங்கள், விளையாட்டு நபர்கள், தொழில் அதிபர்கள், மற்றும் அரசியல்வாதிகளை மக்கள் அளவிற்கு மீறி மரியாதையும் சேவையும் செய்து அவர்களை மனிதர்கள் இன்றி தெய்வாமாக்கி இறைவனை அவமதிப்பதால் இந்த நிலமை உருவாகியுள்ளது.
அவர்கள் தன்னையே பூமியின் கடவுளாக நினைப்பது மக்கள் கொடுத்த சலுகையும் அனாவசிய ஆதரவின் விளைவாகும். இதோடு அரசியலில் கட்சியின் தலைவர், தலைவிக்கு குடை பிடிக்கவும், செருப்பு துடைப்பவறும்தான் கட்சியில் சேர்க்க படுவதினால், கட்சிக்காரர்கள் கட்சியின் தலைமை புரிபவர்களுக்கு ஏகப்பட்ட பட்டங்கலும், விருதுகலும் கொடுத்து தரை மட்டத்தில் இருப்பவர்களை வானத்தில் வைக்கிறார்கள்.
இந்த பிரச்சனைகளுக்கு பரிகாரம் – மேல் பகுதியில் அறிவித்தப்படி எல்லா கட்சிகளையும் விலக்கி, தன் சுக போகங்களை கருதாமல் மக்களுக்கு பனிவிடை செய்வதே லட்சியமாக உள்ளவர்களையும், நல்ல நோக்கம், நாணயம் அதோடு தூரத்து கருத்து அறிந்தவர்களை கொண்டு வருவது நன்மையாகும்.
முக்கியமாக உள் நாடில்லும் சரி அந்நியர்களுடன் கூட்டு சேர்ந்து சதி செய்யும் நரிகளை தள்ளி வைப்பது எல்லா வகையில் மேலாகும்.
அரசியலின் மூன்று கிளை அலுவலகம் பதவிகள் நிரந்தரமாக நீடிக்காமல், கால எல்லை ( டெர்ம் லிமிட்) அறிமுகப்படுத்துவது முன்னுரிமை. இல்லையென்றால் தன் இஷ்டப்படி நான்காவது, ஐந்தாவது தடவை முதல் அமைச்சராக அமர்ந்து கொண்டு என்றைக்கும் தீராத பதவி பித்து பிடித்தவர்கள் மக்களின் ஏழ்மை, துயரம் மற்றும் கல்வியறிவின்மையை தேர்தலில் வெற்றிக்காக மறுபடியும் உபயோகிப்பது ஐதிகமாகி விட்டது.
தேர்தல் திருப்பம் ஆகும் வரையில், தேர்தலில் பங்கு கொள்ளாமல், இருக்கிற எல்லா கட்சிகளையும் அடியோடு புறக்கணிப்பது மக்களின் அருமையையும் சக்தியையும் தெளிவு படுத்தும்.
பதவிக்காக மோசடி செய்வது அரசியலின் தனிச்சுதந்திரமாகி, அநியாயம் அட்டகாசம் பெருகிக்கொண்டே இருக்கிறது. சட்டம் என்பது பொது மக்களுக்கு மற்றும் நியமிக்கப்பட்டதால் குற்றம் செய்பவர்கள் அரசியல் மற்றபடி பெயர் வாய்ந்தவர்கள் கூட்டணியை பாதிப்பதில்லை. இதற்காகவே ஊழல் தடுப்பு பிரச்சாரம் இவர்களுக்கு சம்மதமில்லை.
எல்லா விதத்தில்லும் இப்பொழுது நடக்கிற சம்பவங்கள் குடி அரசின் பெயரில் மக்களின் குடியை கெடுக்கும் ஆட்சிகள் துணிச்சல் பெறுவது புது தில்லி அரசியல் மற்றும் அந்நியர்கள் சாம்ராஜ்யம் தூண்டிய கை வரிசையாகும்.
இதற்க்கு முற்றுபுள்ளி வைப்பதில் தான் மக்கள், நாடு தேற முடியும். இல்லாவகையில் ஆணவம், அகம்பாவத்தோடு ஊழல் அஸ்திவாரமாக கொண்ட அரசாங்கம் நீடிப்பது மக்கள் வேதனையும், நாட்டிற்கு சேதமும் தான் அதிகரிக்கும்.
பிறருக்கு அக்கறை இல்லாவிட்டாலும், இதனால் பாதிக்கப்பட்டவர்கள் ஒத்துழைப்பில் அந்தந்த ஜில்லா, மாவட்டம் பொது சந்திப்பு ஏற்பாடு செய்து மக்கள் சேவைக்காக நீதி, நேர்மை, பண்பு, அறிவாற்றல், அகிம்சை, அமைதி, சமாதானம், விவகாரங்களை தீர்மானம் செய்ய வேண்டிய சாமர்த்தியம் மற்றும் துணிவு பெற்றவர்களை வேட்பாளராக தேர்ந்தெடுத்து அரசாங்கம் அமைக்கலாம்.
இப்பொழுது இருக்கும் கட்சிகள் அனைவரும் இதன் படி ஏற்கனவே இருப்பதாக அபிப்ராயத்துடன் மக்களை திரும்பவும் கண் கட்டி வித்தை காட்ட முன்னணிக்கு வருவார்கள். மக்கள் இவர்கள் வலையில் அகப்படாமல், புதிதாக கட்சி ஆரம்பம் செய்வது புத்திசாலிதனமாகும். புது தில்லி பாராளுமன்றம் அந்நியர்களுடன் உடந்தையாகி பொது மக்கள் கட்சி – உதாரணம் ஆப் போன்ற கட்சியை தமிழ் நாட்டில் அறிமுகம் படுத்தினால் – மக்கள் அதை ஏற்றுக்கொள்வது அறியாமையாகும்.
எப்படி பழையதை அகற்றி விட்டு புதிதாக எதையும் கொண்டு வருவதற்கு முயற்சி தேவையோ, அதே போல் தமிழ் நாட்டில் இந்நாள் வரை ஆட்டம் போட்டுக்கொண்டிருக்கும் கட்சிகளை வேரோடு நீக்குவது மக்களக்கு சுதந்திரமாகும்.
ஆண்டவன் படைத்த உலகத்தில் எல்லா பிராணிகள், பொருட்களுக்கும் முடிவு இருக்கின்றன. அதே மாதிரி அரசியல் கட்சிகளுக்கும், ஆட்சியில் உள்ளவருக்கும் முடிவு காலம் இருப்பதை இவர்கள் மறுத்தாலும் அது நிச்சயம் நடந்துதான் தீரும். இவர்கள் முடிவை தாமதிக்கலாம் ஆனால் தடுக்க இயலாது.
தமிழ் நாட்டின் சரித்திரம் மாற வேண்டிய சமயம் வந்து விட்டதால், இதில் எந்த தடையும் போலி வேடத்தில் அதை தவறினால் சினிமா நடிகை நடிப்பில் வெற்றி காண முடியாது.
ஆண்டவன் விதித்த கட்டளையை மீறி எந்த நிமிடமும் மறைந்து போகும் மனித இனம் குறுக்கிட்டாள் அதன் வினையை அனுபவிக்க வேண்டி வரும்.
பூமி ஒன்று, மனித குலம் ஒன்றை எத்தனையோ பிரிவினை செய்கிற சமுதாயம் அரசியல் என்ற கூண்டில் சிக்கிக்கொண்டு தவிப்பது – அவர்கள் ஏற்றுக்கொண்ட தண்டனையாகும். ஏனனில் இதை கொடுப்பவர்கள் கோழைகள். அவர்களுக்கு மக்களிடம் பயம்.
தேர்தலில் அபகரித்த அதிகாரத்தை மக்கள் வருமான வரியில் நடத்துகிற போலீஸ் படை, நீதி மன்றம், மற்றும் பல வித நிறுவனத்தின் பின்னால் ஒழிந்து தன்னுடைய பாதுகாப்புக்காக மிரட்டுவது அவர்களின் பலவீனம். அதை மூடி மறைத்து மக்கள் அவர்களின் இரக்கத்திற்கு பயந்து வாழ வேண்டுமென்ற சூழ்நிலையை தந்திரமாக ஏற்படுத்தியுள்ளார்கள்.
நயவஞ்சகம், கள்ளம், கபடம் ஆகியவை மனிதர்களின் இருளாகும். இந்த இருட்டில் அச்சம் அதிகமாகி சிந்திக்கும் தன்மையை இழப்பதால் தீய செயலில் ஈடுபட்டு தன் பாவத்தை சேகரித்துக் கொள்கிறார்கள்.
இந்த பாதையில் செல்பவர்கள் மறப்பது – கர்ம வினைகள் யாரையும் விட்டு வைப்பதில்லை. அவரவர்கள் செய்யும் குற்றத்திற்கு அதன் பலனை தவிர்க்க சாத்தியம் இல்லை. இது சத்தியம்.
தமிழ் நாடு அரசியல் சகல கட்சிகளின் அத்தியாயம் இறுதியான முடிவு தமிழகத்திற்கு புதிய பிறவியை உண்டாக்கும்.
அனைவருக்கும் அமைதி உருவாக!
நன்றி
