    No use, no way - 20th will win.

    You get what you deserve. ...

    More powers to the President is also dangerous, but good and bad is there 50-50

    Always war in the Parliament, why there is no discipline in our Parliament, who is responsible - Yes Speaker is responsible.

    20th Amendment is 100% successful no one cannot shake Gota

    Dr. A.C.B. Jayaweera Tuesday, 22 September 2020 01:25 PM

    People had given the mandate, why these un-wanted trouble, let the Govt. move forward with the right decisions.

    S. Sunderalingam Pillai Tuesday, 22 September 2020 01:59 PM

    Shouts won't make any differences, 20th Amendment is most needed to our country. Go ahead...

    German Jacob Tuesday, 22 September 2020 02:00 PM

    19th dead with Ranil, 20th came to life.... with Gota.

    Now the best business in Sri Lanka is going to be " Dual Citizenship promotion" agencies. 100% patriotism is foolishness. Making money by any means is the most important task it seems. henceforth there will be a new Lankan proverb proverb; " You can stand on two boats".

    The speaker who violates the constitution has to get advice from a Parliament peon to do his job. What a shameful speaker. He is good to wipe the shoes of Karu Jayasuriya.

    Wise people learn from others' mistakes, average people learn from their own mistakes, but fools learn from nobody, they don't even learn from their own mistakes. President Gotabaya Rajapaksa is daydreaming to develop Sri Lanka as a developed country while the opposition parties' leaders are following India and the West to fulfil their own political agendas, even though India's literacy rate is well below Sri Lanka and the West's interest is keeping the developing countries under them. Unfortunately, history is repeating itself, because fools never learn. South Asia didn't have a post independence strategy to utilise the largest population, it still does not have a strategy to come up other than pleasing the West. South Asia has more enemies inside than outside. Impossible to educate those dangerous minds while they have unwavering blessings of the West. The Westerners love South Asia, because they can keep two billion South Asians under them and also can use them against China.
