Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka, who was highly critical on the newly appointed Minister Wijeyadasa Rajapakshe said what he said about him in the recent past had come true today.
“I disclosed in Parliament that Mr Rajapakshe was trying to sweep the Avant-Garde case under the carpet. I also told the people in Maharagama not to vote for him as his heart was with Mr Mahinda Rajapaksa. Therefore what I have said about him had come true,” Fonseka said.
He refuted the statement made by President Maithripala Sirisena that North and East were to be merged.
“There was never such a move; no one has even spoken about merging the Northern Province and the Eastern Province,” he said
Responding to a question on the allegation that China was behind the current situation he said he did not think so.(Yohan Perera)

Who is giving the Rajapaksas money to buy Ministers. All the criminals are the ones joining this illegitimate government. Soon we will have a Government of the biggest Criminals if we keep going this way.

Here are my two cents. 1. Sell all harbors and important places to all the super powers for a billion dollars a month 2. Flatten all places of worship and give the land to the poor. This way all srilankans can go to heaven or attain nirvana. As far as the PM screw all before and after tomorrow.

// There was never such a move; no one has even spoken about merging the Northern Province and the Eastern ProvinceThere were people openly calling for Federalism and calling those who are against separatist federalism as Racists. Now that they are out of power they can conveniently say that federalism was never on the agenda.

We talk about democracy when something we don't like is done so similarly I like when the democracy is abused to get what I like.
Wise Donkey Thursday, 01 November 2018 10:40 PM

Likewise, Tamils were told that electing Srisena as the president wouldn't bring any solution. It has been proofed. Srisena seems to be another version of Rajapaksa.

No point crying over spilt milk. Why don't you guys go into publishing? Write a book or two or take a world tour lobbying for Sri Lanka's change? Invite world citizens to come save paradise?

As clearly stated by Maslow Motivational Theory there are a lot of high priority items for the normal man in SL than DEMOCRACY.From what I can understand Cost of Living,Economy , National Security,Pereived Threat to Buddism etc are far more important to a majority of people in SL.For me personally 1 is National security
