Very sad but the Goverment had to settle very nearly the garbage problem. Waste incinerator in North West South East is a very good System this Incinerator can bring Electric Power ect.Germany have very good Companys like this and a greatful System to collect the Garbage but people in Sri Lanka dont like to do they keep it all around the Country also in National Parks what a mess.If you come by Car or Bus from Colombo to the south you will be shocked the smell is also bad for Rats Mosquitos are faboulos place. via DM Android App

What is the correct question:- Who located this site near houses?- Who built houses near this site?Then you can find the responsibles!

government must take the responsible for this tragedy

Do not blame the government for everything. Have we ever tried to educate people on proper ways to reduce waste and Waste Management. Let this incident open our eyes and pray for the victims.

The legacy of Sirisena, Wickremasinghe and Marikar. Classic case of NATO.

MR Regime could have found some solutions for this before hand!

Yes every govt neglected this problem for the past twenty years though at election time they said it will be moved somewhere. Hope even now some proper method of waste disposal is implemented.

With such stupid politicians in power what chance do the people have. It's better to bring the 225 jokers in the parliament and bury them in this dump.
AjithZ Saturday, 15 April 2017 12:37 PM
Needless loss of valuable life. Wonder whether our politicians have any value for these lives. One thing for sure. Now the anti government forces will go to town trying to get the maximum advantage from this crisis. What a sad situation. Our sympathy to all the affected people. Hope at least now some action will be taken to remove this garbage dump.

Very sad and a tragedy! Poor and forgotten and ignored till an election.
Ganesh Saturday, 15 April 2017 11:30 AM
This tragedy could have been certainly prevented if the authorities concerned and nasty politicians had been consciously alert .Now how are you going to revive the lives of the unnecessarily dead people by your indifference and negligence .This is not a natural disaster .This is a reckless man made disaster .
