It shows none of your relatives are affected.

It's a real shame to see some the anti Indian sentiments published over here at time like this when people are in trouble and seeking assistance no matter from whom. This is the problem we have in this country where majority of the population are uneducated and walking time bombs. Be more sensible and comment with more responsibility.These are called the Yakkos.

Do not you know this is a trick to get some hidden benefit from sri lanka. Can you guess what is Indian aim?

JOSEPH Friday, 20 May 2016 05:24 PM

Why do not you and patriots protest in front of the Indian Embassy to take the ships back?

These are all tactics. They want to arrive before China arrives. Hope they will NOT push for CEPA agreement in return.

When anything is given free, the yakkos will be quiet and happy.

we Sri Lankans are capable of helping our flood victims. we dont need such outside assistance for wich well have to pay a heavy price later. this kind of shameless assistance is sought by politicians so that they something to distribute to garner their votes. we need to pay for it as a nation later. flood victims can be taken care of if PMs bullet proof limousine order is cancelled. via DM Android App

GMOA is probably waiting to make money out of the people getting sick

Human Friday, 20 May 2016 12:56 PM

Where GMOA now? Have they not set up a free clinic to help the people. Where is the president of the clan now?

Leo Friday, 20 May 2016 12:24 PM

For sure a big 'Thank you' to India. But is this the way you expect Indians to help us forever??? Kind of refugy status???
