Will you please stop taking people on a ride now and start work? Enough is enough. We knew very well that all your rhetoric was just propaganda. Re-starting this project is just a matter of time.

Govt must make sure that the entrance to the port is under Sri Lankan control, land allocation must be revised towards this.

Could have done this in January. Politicians play games and investors run away.
