No decision as yet from the President?

Private universities will enable those who miss uni entrance by a few marks to get an education in Sri Lanka. It will save them money. It will protect foreign reserves.Yes. Private education must maintain standards. But then again when we see the state uni med students it is clear the state universities have not much standards!JVP- very disappointing that you are playing politics! Be principled! Promote private education along with state supervision and standards!

When you see these protesters, I wonder whether if you ask them individually, 98% know anything about SAITM but just mouthing what they have been asked to do.

Why only on SAITM, why not about KDU medical faculty.

Here we go again! A sri Lankan pass time. Don't these people have anything better to do?

ALL THOSE WHO STAGE PROTESTS AGAINST SAITM SHOULD BE CHARGED FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT, STAGING PROTESTS AGAINST COURT JUDGEMENT IS ILLEGAL

The reason the JVP is opposes to it is that they would have no control over them by bringing them to the roads as and when they require as what they do with state universities!! bunch of hooligans the mention the lease.
