Actually, there is no need for mandatory provisions to ensure youth in politics. I would thoroughly discourage young people, with no professional or work experience to join politics as their means of income. Politicians should be experienced and qualified people (both of which are lacking in our politicians today) who have a record of serving the public. What we should mandate is a minimum representation for women! Although women make up 53% of Sri Lanka's population, only 4% are there in parliament! That is a disgusting situation!

They would find faults and every turn. The bill is presented to Parliament and UNP can make proposals without making a hue and cry and every turn.

Hon. Sajith Premadasa,Please join Gen.Fonseka and make the largest party in the opposition (in parliament) so that you can be the Leader of the opposition. Of course you have to come to certain agreement with Gen. Fonseka. This is the only way to get the current cunning leader of the opposition. Also this is the only way to oust the government.

Government has done a great JOB by encouraging youth to find other way of living instead of getting into politics like you

Giving women more representation is laudable but looking at the crop of women politicians we currently have both in Parliament and Provincial Councils,one wonders whether the real objective and purpose is achieved.
