WHat is the fate of Tamil people in the future? I don't really see any standard of living improving in South India. Even in Malaysia, the Tamils are the poorest. I think all the Tamils should support that group in Sri Lanka(LTTE, if i'm not mistaken). Tamils needs and deserves a separate state for themselves. I am only 16 and feel very sad for the fate of Tamils.
It looks like only a good politician can solve all this problem. China should be taken as an example. They are expanding very quickly and is said to be second biggest economy in a few years. I hope we Tamils should work harder and stop cheating. I also found that Tamils very oftenly like to topple their competitor the wrong way instead of competing. I hope this can stop.

  Dravid you are really cool and wonderful, But no one is fighting here on this forum, except Tamilians who are interested in separate identity. And some of them are retaliating to Tamil foolishness and backwardness.

  Suresh..this is Dravid
  
  Let me tell you we need to respect every language..tamil is not inferior and in fact tamil is one among the five most perfected languages in the world. Our hindi is also a great language owing it origins from sanscrit, sanscrit as you know is very ancient. The only widely spoken ancient languages in the world are tamil and hebrew.
  
  Sanscrit and Tamil are the pillars for indian civilization...do not forget that!
  
  
  We will have to respect each other and each other's languages not fight it out like this and create ltte's and naxals.
  
  Make our Mom INDIA smile!

  No Suresh! I did not want that we will have to respect each other...not abuse each other ...
  
  We should be practical...i did not ask for hoarding in tamil in delhi nor hoardings in hindi in chennai or bangalore.
  
  How will you and me understand tamil in delhi? or how will southies understand hindi in their cities...
  
  let them talk their language and we will talk ours... i was trying to settle the differences not rake up controversies.
  
  I really appreciate ur concerns but man let me tell you that if we go on allowing such stupid fights between these people here and have this pathetic difference in this 21st century we better split and give them another country just as we did for pakistan, aksai chin and bangladesh.
  
  anyway thanks for ur comments!
  
  Not an HINDIAN or TAMILIAN but An Indian

  first DD and All India Radio encroached in Tamil land. Then came some few Northy run discotheques which lured many tamilians , which imposed lot of Hindi music on them and they liked it the way they accepted northy bombay gusbu and they built temple.
  Now MTV,zee-TV,V-Channel, iTV, sTAR TV, FTV (HINDI FASHION ONLY), NDTV, AAJ TAK ALL ARE imposing and intruding into tamil blood like a virus. Some kids even want to make this as their mother tongue. Image DMK anti-hindi man karunanidhi's daugheter is Hindi lecturer and all his kids and grand kids know hindi and love Hindi.. What tamil tribune is going to for that. Do they have sold plan and agenda to remove this private channel TV menace. Block all such channels who talk about Hindi. Close all the discotheques who mostly play Hindi music and some English Music,there is not even a single discotheque , club or pub which plays Tamil music, they all need to be driven out of Tamilnadu border and dumped in Hindi belted Bangalore.
  We cannot lick Hindi diks , let kanndas do that.
  
  We will have Tamil discotheques, Tamil jazzaurants with katpadi and vellore music. That way singapore is much better where Hindi influence is least, Tamilians have their own gay clubs, discotheques, Tamil jazz restaurants etc.
  Ms. dhanjai Nalankiizhhhhhhhhhhi please look into this matter and make Tamilnadu a great Tamil place where Jaina Acharyya kundakunda(Thiruvalluvar name given by Brahmins)lived.
  
  Take care friends, It is my sincere advice with bit of sarcasm. But Tamils must not loose their identity. Already so many Dalits are ready to ridicule hinduism, Tamil and accepted churches and roman language.
