    Is it with the CHOGM logo or is it with Mahinda Rajapakse's face?

    We are not at all bothered about the new Currency Notes, but we are worried how we are going to pay-off the UN-bearable Loan SL had taken from China.

    So another excuse to print more money and then they continue to deny that there is no inflation.

    Govt should distribute wheelbarrows to carry money around when shopping.

    No unique notes available in Sri Lanka, same as SL economic policy.
