    This year Sathosa has stopped selling liqor.They charged the normal charge for beer although after price reduction in beer,until the head office gave the approval for selling for reduced price.There must be a reason for Sathosa stopping selling liqor.

    Excellent Opportunity for School goers to go grab a pint instead of going to school. FM seems in the pocket of the beer industry

    Opening at 8 am..... when to cut the hangover?

    Rasheed Friday, 12 January 2018 10:30 AM

    After minister Mangala taking over the Finance Ministry, he is more concentrating on liquor rather than other more important matter.

    We get sick and tired with women driving on the roads with wildly varying speeds as dictated by their mood swings. And now its going to be a disaster having with drink women drivers.

    Next step is to open all bar and liquor shops on poya days. FM is having very excellent advisors.
