I was a great fan of Sri Lanka army up to today. I have participated in a walk to pay tribute to soldiers, had written on behalf of them in various online forums, has donated material and assisted different campaigns to support Sri Lankan defense forces. (Just look at my previous post to find out about the walk, here is a youtube video).
I have lost my NIC and due to the different bottlenecks obtaining a new one has been extremely difficult. They have stopped the one day service and from the police station which has a broken type writer to type the certified entry copy everywhere i had to face many delays in obtaining a copy.
Today i was stopped at a check point while i was proceeding to my work. I have been stopped at check points without my ID and in most of places i have met people with required intelligence level to realize that this is a geniune case. I had a photo copy of my previous ID and today they detained that copy at the check point. This copy was very useful in most checkpoints and today they kept it after speaking very harshly to me.
This country considers defense forces heros. I was deeply moved watching the alleged Oddusudan attack thinking about the risks they undergo daily. I myself has wished i could join the defense forces.
My experience today changed my view of defense forces. If the Sri Lankan army officers at Colombo could be this much irrational and inhuman , how can those at Vanni and PTK be the “professional” force caring for the civilians ? We know the “professional” behaviour of Sri Lanka police, due to the large number of HR petitions filed against them and i dont think SLA and other forces are that much bad.
People consider the army heros. I still belive that they are real heros. If the heros at the check point gave back my ID copy it would have been really helpful. What to do … ? All heros have their weaknesses right !

Dear IJTS ,
I’ve been knowing you as a pioneer in SCJP offering institute. However recent discussions on your own site www.technohug.net makes me seriously doubt you ! This is an extract from a Technohug discussion
Hi all.. I have got my degree from IJTS University, and I am really happy to take it from here which is affiliated to Open International University which has branches all around the world & also this is the biggest Grand Graduation convocation held in Sri Lanka.
Open international university was founded by a Sri Lanka Prof. Anton Jayasuriya, and really attracted more than 1000 foreigners to come to Sri Lanka to collect their BSc., and I believe thousands of Foreigners will come to get their IT related degree in future to IJTS University Sri Lanka which is founded by another Sri Lankan, Dr. Ishantha Siribaddana.
Now I am 25 years old and I have my BSc. (Software Engineering) E-commerce special degree with Five years experience on E commerce.
I also have got the entire infrastructure from IJTS Silicon Valley to start my own business “Internet Marketing King” and I have started earning from it now. My target is to earn one million plus monthly profits within the next five years & also to take E commerce in Sri Lanka beyond USA.
What made me suspicious is the fact that this guy has got a “BSc.(SE) E-Commerce Special” from a University which is offering degrees in “alternative medicine” – infact as i know this is the institution which offered degrees for Hon. M.P Mervin Silva. Please see the following image.
If you zoom in to the pictures in this thread you will clearly see that it mentions “alternative medicine” .(Please let me know if the link is not working – they will remove it at any time)
My Questions to you all
Is this degree valid ?
Is this recognized by UGC ?
Can a university offer degrees out of their scope ?
Is this something similar to the XAurora ? If this is another bogus institute we should blow the whistle – otherwise hundreds of innocent people will get caught in this trap.
People at Technohug have questioned this and this is the immediate response of technohug admin
On November 28th I’m going to perform a Complete Moderation process to make TechnoHug Clean And Clear..
All the unrelated Forum posts, Blogs, images, Videos ETC will be removed..
Are they trying to cover up something by silencing those who question it. I wont mind any dumb ass getting PHD’s from bogus degree shops , however people getting such undergraduate degrees will affect the IT industry as well.
I will withdraw this post if i get proof or clarification.
I browse YouTube for Sri Lankan videos and found this wonderful video. This is the new video for “Api Wenuwen Api”. In this video Nelu , Weraliyadda , Nalin and Iraj Sings about Sri Lankan forces. They call them a strong wall and names them as the gods of Sri Lanka.
Sri Lankan forces have made supreme sacrifices in defending the soveriginity from ruthless LTTE terror organization which is demanding a seperate state within Sri Lanka. Despite the negotiation and peace efforts of Sri Lankan government LTTE has killed a large amount of Sri Lankan civilians , clergy and Political figures. Today they use civilians as a shield in protecting their defences and denies humanitarian aid to them. They are discredited for their baberic sucide missions and child soldier deployment in combat.
In this backdrop Sri Lankan forces have made many victories to protect Sri Lanka and it’s innocent civilians. This video is a tribute to the brave Navy , Army and Airforce of Sri Lanka.In their humanitarian missions they have liberated the eastern province from terror clutches and presently engaged in liberating the nothern province from LTTE terrorists.
