Thanks Rana.

All these seem good conditions which any Country should have.

Any specifics which has ulterior motives? If not, we should do our best to implement as required.

I think all look good only on paper.
(Take number 5 and see who has violated it the most but has anyone dare to say a thing).

Agree with you Kithsiri

However, we will be better people (a better Country) if we do these.
Getting GSP + is a "plus" that comes with it

If you think so, then I have no qualm.
(But being a doubting Thomas, I wonder why do they have to attached all those as preconditions than allowing countries to come forward on their own volition and sign up).

Take racial, religious discrimination in Sri Lanka . Look at how we have implemented/not implemented them

Anyway, if there are specifics that have ulterior motives...those needs to be discussed.

I am sure, some people with legal backgrounds will look in to them in minute details and report in due course.
As for the matter of racial / religious discrimination, the definitions are not absolute and therefore subject to different interpretations.

Signing documents will not change minds. Forcing will not work either.
However it will get countries to work on it.

What is sad is people in opposition cry about the conditions when they are in opposition. When they come to power they do the same. All parties do the same What we as people should do is stand for our Country when right things are done regardless of the Party we like. We can love our Country without falling in love with a "Political Party"
