Abstract
Cyril Mathew, Minister of Industries and Scientific Affairs, is one of the cabinet ministers alleged to have instigated the anti- Tamil pogrom of July 1983. For many years, Cyril Mathew has been making com munalist speeches and publishing anti-Tamil tracts in Sinhala. Below we publish translated excerpts from some of his 'works'.
We are not concerned here to contest his 'facts' or opinions. But a reading of the other articles in this issue would show that his pro nouncements are either factually wrong, intellectually dishonest or downright lies.
