Whatever it is ,the ruling parties must be cleaned first and go forward with the new leadership for the balance years without giving back to Joking Opponents (JO).The government should be very strong while implementing the policies. All people's aspirations should be fulfilled before 2020.We could not digest the ways, the existing government was ruling the country last 3years,In Sri Lankan history this is the first time we see a government without any skill or leadership qualities.

Both of you don't look stressed as the most of the common people do after the election, pls do something, Sir RW, I have always voted for you, sorry to say that this time you must stepdown, you will be an ideal Foreign Minister or an advisor in house, the biggest mistake you did was not making leaders. Come out with an extra ordinary attainable short term strategy. God Bless.

this is a protest vote agianst the govt. by UNPers. Ranil has great amount of weakness.. Let Ranil remain as PM and give to Karu the UNP ledaership. Let the UNP adopt a new party constitution like of BJP in India. Amir Sha is the leader of the BJP. and Modi is the PM. why being a Sinhalese still Ranil dont understand the feelings of Sinhalese. Ranil deliberately soft peddled all the inquiries of the corrupt, This is the first time divide and rule miserably failed. 2 more years to go. put all cases on fast track and sentence the wrong doers.
Eds Tuesday, 13 February 2018 02:49 PM
So the "protest" vote according to you, went to your chief opponents? Why not the JVP then? Nice theory .....

Only way forward at this moment is show some compassion - reduce the number of ministers, reduce all the luxury cars and expenses from the 225 MPs, put behind bars all the crooks, including UNP, SLFP, finally give some relief to mass.
Steven Wednesday, 14 February 2018 03:50 PM
I just don't understand why we need 225 MPs to run country of 21 million people. the United states and Australia has much lesser MP Panel than Sri Lanka..
