If Sri Lankans can understand him, it means he is a useless leader.
Hope he does not come back to SL. UNP will finally be able to get a strong leader.

There is no point in good governance without having a country to govern. The Ceasefire agreement he signed with LTTE would have had catastrophic results for SL if CBK had not dissolved Parliament called for elections. One needs to be also politically savvy. Let's hope his trip will make him that.

Look at all the wanna be sarcastic comments about Ranil. You can judge the future of Sri Lanka from these comments. Instead of giving a solution they keep harping about nonsense. Typical srilankans.

By governing the UNP democratically with road closures and selected members (loyal to him) for the UNP conventions ?

Study in US, yes. Man has lot to learn. Good luck!

Sri Lankan's be careful of these universities. This is how these universities collect data and information from other countries and then use these as weapons to harass us. What can we expect from US. We already know the games they are playing.

being educated on the latest developments in the modern economics n politics is always a good thing. at the same time one should be educated on the art of taking such message to the common man in the srilankan context of politics. though we keep our literacy levels high comparing to the countries in the region I don't think it reflects the same when its comes to the level of wisdom. pls learn to speak to the heart of these ppl cos end of the day its always be heart winning person who via DM Android App

The problem is even you learn the latest things in politics and economics, by the time you become the president of Sri Lanka those theories will be badly outdated........at that time you may have to go again.....
