the president of sri lanka is keen to foebz on the economy. in the four years since the civil war ended he said the country has seen a turn around, that is open for business, and he's hoping with the leaders of all these various countries from different parts of the world and economic statuses, will come and invest in sri lanka and push for a prosperous country as well. >> he has not been able to move attention away from what happened during the last months of the civil war, has be. there has been reports that protests over human rights abuses have been stopped. are we likely to see this brought up by the other heads of government at all. >> absolutely. in fact, david cameron, the british prime minister has asked for a private meeting with the president. he has said that he wants to press the issue of human rights. the sri lankan president, i should say, for his own right, said that this isn't the venue for that kind of conversation, that the commonwealth should be focussing on how to improve sri lanka, how to bring the country forward. but ag

what is the reaction to david cameron's call in sri lanka. does it have wait at all. >> yes, hi there. we had some reaction - some factions within the president's government rejecting the calls for an independent investigation. the water and irrigation minister - senior cabinet minister - silva says, "we will resist an international inquiry, we don't think there's a reason for an intrngsal inquiry." this is a -- international inquiry", that is a minister in the government. he's on the side of not having an investigation into the allegations of human rights abuses carried out by the sri lankan government and military at the end of the country's 26-year long civil war in 2009. now, earlier we spoke with the economic development minister and brother of the prt. he said to us that frankly the world community is misguided. he's saying that the victims of that conflicts, are, frankly, the buddhist majority. here is what he said. >> where civilians were killed, trains, religious bases. i am really grate of the to the pm of the uk. and also i saw the

>> the british prime minister david cameron left sri lanka. the sri lankan president, mahinda rajapaksa is deliver his closing remarks. he's joined by of the south african president and the malaysian prime minister. now, we are not expecting the kind of fireworks we saw on day two of this summit. the tension between david cameron and mahinda rajapaksa overshadowing this. that language that we heard by mahinda rajapaksa saying that those who live in glasshouses should not throw stones, basically, as you put it, calling the u.k. prime minister a hip crit over britain's failure to investigate some of its own abuses in a timely fashion. whatever the case the sri lankan president is saying that this country needs more time for any kind of investigation. the sri lankan civil war lasted for 26 years, and although it ended four years ago the government is saying reconciliation and investigation will take a bit of time. if you listen to senior members of mahinda rajapaksa's cabinet they say no investigation is needed and say they are not going to have

sri lanka was one of the most painful examples. sri lanka was held up in mid-century as a model of the country where people of different races got along wonderfully and they did. the educated members of these two different groups lived in the same neighborhoods. they have different religions. they would attend holiday services in the house of worship and so on. that was fine until he decided he wanted the prime minister and then he turned them against each other and the tamils turned against the similes. these people who never had a race riot in the entire first half of the 20th century began to have riots which then escalated into outright civil war. it went on for decades with unspeakable atrocities and more people killed in this little country than the americans lost during the entire vietnam war. so it's a scary example of how a given time things may look very good on the surface and yet when the right demagogue comes along in the right circumstances people can be turned against each other with hate. >> host: at in your view su
