In Sri Lanka higher courts are under attack for using contempt of court as a sword making everybody fearful to comment about court decisions which appear manifestly defective. The Bar Association of Sri Lanka is getting funds from USAID to sanitize the judicial system, and its officers now face accusations of misappropriation of dollar donations received for that purpose. The system change that all are wanting must include the judicial apparatus in Sri Lanka. It cannot be a pillar of democracy unless this happens. See what is happening in the USA now with regard to its Supreme Court.
