Heroes Day deserves expanded meaning
After so many sacrifices and compromises, it was generally accepted that Heroes and Heroines of the liberation struggle should be remembered, celebrated and compensated. We have also witnessed political infighting within political parties, but such incidents should not be viewed as negative or subversive but as part of the dynamics of our democracy to promote an open society based on accountability to the voters and transparency in political and public offices. In the long run, if thing go accordingly, our nation will be characterized by central, left-wing and right wing politics within the confines of unity in diversity.

To take reconciliation to new heights and encourage all citizen of this country to embrace the political public holidays such as Heroes Day, the meaning of a hero should be expanded and re-defined to conform appropriately in accordance with the cultures and languages of all communities and groups in our country.

The facade masking the politics of our country should be removed to expose the potential of a young democracy and cement its constitutional principles in order for the country to survive future turbulences beyond the current definition of a hero. Today a hero is someone or a group of people who have fought in the anti- colonial or liberation wars.
