    The roads seem to be badly built. Is it part of the "Uturu Wasanthaya"

    yes, we should have built all of them on pillars, floating on air... because you know, the ground can shift and erode.

    Roads need not be built on pillars. The solution to have proper drains or canals to move the water. This is missing on most Sri Lanka roads.
