    Not sure H.E. had time to get a medical check done. It looks like he is having early signs of Dementia (memory problems, particularly remembering recent events increasing confusion). Typical example is that he is confused about the events that took place during the last two weeks of the war.

    A waste of tax payers money. What was the result of relating fairy tales. Enjoy the twilight Sir.

    We think that there is a compettion between the President and Prime Minister to establish a record in making overseasvisits.

    why ???.

    Arnold Sunday, 30 September 2018 01:57 PM

    Sir, please don't go overseas. Every time you go overseas the rupee goes down in value and the economy shrinks.

    highly irresponsible president the we have seen in this country. See what he said in USA regarding war in the last 2 weeks. People laugh at him both ends.

    It will be couple of weeks before President complains about the food given in the plane and so we shall relax for now.

    He met siri Lankans in NY and I know how hard few were trying to collect people. What a failure. I did not go but he should have not returned. What the hell that Bermuda triangle was doing. Pathetic Sri Lanka. How cursed to be leader like this

    Haramanis Sunday, 30 September 2018 09:38 PM

    This is an out and out conman. Should be kept on a leash.

    I really wanted to say “welcome back” then not really for hoodwinking our people at the UNGeneral Assembly.You made yourself a fool by trying to hoodwink our people with your idiotic, well of course patriotic, non sense speech about Resolution 30/1 at UN General Assembly, wrong podium.Resolution 30/1 was passed at the UNHRC and not by the UNGeneral Assembly and Sri Lanka was the co-sponsor with USA and this was done under your government watch.Now, except the repelling of the PTA and establishment of the office of the missing persons, what other concrete actions stipulated in the Resolution 30/1, have you, as the President implemented, nothing, zero!Ooops, sorry, changed cashew supplier in Sri Lankan Airlines, which was your unique achievement.Yet, you were berating our very own making of the Resolution 30/1 at the wrong podium by stating that SL is a sovereign country and should be allowed to solve?
