The last of the educated lot.

BuffaloaCitizen Friday, 06 July 2018 11:49 AM

To most PEOPLE including the type of Ali Baba Rajapaksa and his types she is indescribable. Actual fact is she is a very knowledgeable well balanced leader who failed to be bold

Chari Friday, 06 July 2018 11:49 AM

Birds of a Feather Flock together. Sri Lanka will reign high once again...sans the new constitution and the US. Trump is a good man who will not hurt us like the Obama Regime.

vithura Friday, 06 July 2018 02:10 PM

So when was it that SL did reign high? Pre or Post 1972 constitution ?

Haramanis Friday, 06 July 2018 11:50 AM

How did you manage to escape jail??? with her counsel.

Ceylon Friday, 06 July 2018 11:50 AM

Why didnt give your wise counsal to srilanka?.by the way she is now waiting 4 months to give a call to traitor sirisena.waiting for six months to meeting appointment for sirisena.

Nuwan Friday, 06 July 2018 11:58 AM

Wise counsel now has a very different meaning.

Doug Friday, 06 July 2018 12:22 PM

Very rarely does a US diplomat gives such credit, also another side kick to MR camp.

vithura Friday, 06 July 2018 02:12 PM

I am sure you meant it was a kick up the proverbial.

Sugath Friday, 06 July 2018 12:24 PM

Was under the impression US Ambassador Atul Keshap was a intelligent man.Seems he is easily fooled.

Ceylon Friday, 06 July 2018 01:17 PM

Degrees,experience cant match with charm friendly woman's fine tactics.

JIM Friday, 06 July 2018 01:59 PM

He is an Indian, at heart.

S B Lokuge Friday, 06 July 2018 03:00 PM

He is just another Indian scum like to destroy Sri Lanka

mr bean n gang Friday, 06 July 2018 12:26 PM

if she was a good adviser people would have not suffered during her regime.. fool can only fools themselves.

saman Friday, 06 July 2018 12:37 PM

Of course!

Rajanram Friday, 06 July 2018 01:25 PM

She should be in the jail for installing corrupt government.

M.O.Daya Friday, 06 July 2018 04:38 PM

Or for nominating Rajapakse as the SLFP candidate?

Flanker Friday, 06 July 2018 01:32 PM

wise counsel... my foot. she would informed him never should one attend a meeting on time...she is GROBR women!!!

Singhela Friday, 06 July 2018 01:43 PM

CBK wise!?!? Certainly not. This woman plundered the country, so she could enjoy the luxuries that Epsom, Surrey in England has to offer.

Harini Friday, 06 July 2018 06:52 PM

Much like the government she helped bring to power.

Mahir Friday, 06 July 2018 01:56 PM

Machang, you always have fun in Sri Lanka.

Gayan Friday, 06 July 2018 01:57 PM

I took her wise counsil to complete 3/4..every friday night.

Missaka Friday, 06 July 2018 01:58 PM

You were honored to have her friendship..... we are being suffered immense with her advises!

Friendship Friday, 06 July 2018 02:16 PM

Any man will enjoy the friendship of a woman !

yahiya Friday, 06 July 2018 02:35 PM

She done the job

Premalal Friday, 06 July 2018 03:17 PM

So all Americans not smart. There are dumb ones as well.

Dimuthu Mendis Friday, 06 July 2018 03:24 PM

Keshap, you will be thrilled if you could have read "Chaura Rajina" by Victor Ivon. and request counselling in areas you even haven't heard before. (unfortunately I don't think it has an English translation).

Ruwan Friday, 06 July 2018 04:57 PM

"vice" alright..

GH Friday, 06 July 2018 06:15 PM

Yes, meeting is worthwhile because she was one of the presidents who spoilt the nation after Premadasa and Maithreepala.

cbk amma Friday, 06 July 2018 06:43 PM

this woman ruined the country, what advise can she possibly give to US??!!!!

Lokka Friday, 06 July 2018 07:03 PM

Keshap, you are going!! GOOD BYE!! Don't ever come here again. Let us live our lives your interferences.

TONY Friday, 06 July 2018 07:05 PM

SHE REVIVED SLFP AFTER JR GOVERNMENT. SHE THEN PROPOSED MR AS SLFP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE UNTIL SHE WAS KICKED OUT BY MR HIMSELF WITH AN ULTERIOR MOTIVE - TO LOOT

Gos Friday, 06 July 2018 07:19 PM

Looks like he caught the 'Mad Cow' disease from the mad cow !

Bathiya Friday, 06 July 2018 08:45 PM

She was the worst president Sl had..

Was Saturday, 07 July 2018 06:55 AM

Most probably he never read the book " The queen of deceit" by Victor Ivan.
