Answer:
Both
Belgium and Sri Lanka dealt with the question of power sharing differently.
(i) In Belgium, the leaders have realised that the unity of the country
is possible only by respecting the feelings and interests of different
communities and regions. Thus, the Belgium government does not follow any preferential
policies in matters of jobs and education while in Sri Lanka the government
follows preferential
policies that favours Sinhala applicants for university
positions and government jobs.
(ii) In Belgium, there is a special government called
'community government' which has the power regarding cultural, educational and
language based issues. But in Sri Lanka no major political parties are
sensitive to the language and culture of 'Tamils'.
(ii) In Belgium, there is no discrimination between religions. But in Sri
Lanka, a new Constitution declares that the state shall protect and foster
Buddhism.
