    Ok. That means no more flying Srilankan. Even at double the cost it will be a another airline.

    But we want the best Chairman at Sri Lankan back. Bring back Nishantha Wickramasinghe.

    OMG looks like MR and MS do not care a hoot whether people are corrupt or not. This man Chandrasena has been allegedly accused of much wrong doing in current inquiry into SLAirlines and his appointment shows callous disregard to accusations of corruption by MS's own Commission of Inquiry. In future the clear message is corruption is the accepted norm in our dear country.

    Stupidity to its core. A fellow who could revive Sri Lankan as the CEO will he be a good Chairman? Anyway we see only stupid decisions like this from all our politicians as it's not their money
