Malaka aspires to be Education Minister in SL

Monday, 24 September 2012 16:33

Minister Mervyn Silva’s son Malaka has made a request to leave the country for higher education purposes, to fulfill his aspiration of one day becoming Sri Lanka’s Education Minister.

President’s Council Hemantha Warnakulasooriya appearing on behalf of Malaka Silva informed court that his client was expecting to enter an American University.

Accordingly, Colombo Fort Magistrate has permitted Malaka to be away from October 5 to November 7 but he was ordered to appear in court on November 26. (Lakmal Sooriyagoda)\

mala closs all the school no need to study.

Wow great. I see a bright future for our education and future generation. Take a weed, bang a pros.. while in school.

Sri Lanka readers and media should be intelligent . why we need to talk about him so much and make him a Hero.

-1+19 # sach 2012-09-25 11:44

exactly that is what he wants

-0+23 # Jayantha 2012-09-25 13:28

Exactly. It is media who makes Sri Lankans fools.

-0+43 # Nodrog 2012-09-25 11:29

Education will not make him a man. He lacks class, decent upbringing and proper guidance. He will always remain a cowardly thug

-0+16 # perumal 2012-09-25 14:51

But why, his father can become the Minister of Education. He has a Doctorate too.

-6+476 # Wara 2012-09-24 16:44

Leaving the country for any purpose is a good news for everyone.

-9+116 # bigsam 2012-09-24 22:22

Except for the Americans. But they probably deserve him!

-5+139 # kumara 2012-09-24 16:45

Well deserved !

-1+376 # Calistus Jayatilleke 2012-09-24 16:47

Another trick to avoid the court case. This country is now really owned by these rowdies to do whatever they want. Malaka becoming Minister of Education one day would mean the end of the children of this country who will emulate his behaviour of using drugs, firing guns, visiting night clubs, assaulting people, keeping dozens of girl friends and all other sorts of nefarious activities. Wonder what this sudden urge to join an American University after having failed to learn anything in Australia.

-0+182 # Bandara 2012-09-24 17:25

Well said! He would be exposed if wait until CCTV camera footage would be presented to courts.

-1+208 # Raj 2012-09-24 17:44

CCTV footage must have already been edited with relevant cuts to the footage

-0+4 # sach 2012-09-25 08:41

there were still images of CCTV in Lanka newspaper. That means it is out. Hope we can see the video

Army guys !!!! we saw how the 15 year experienced Army Major also an Intelligence Officer allowed his weapon and mobile to be taken away from him and also retract completely his initial statements, so dont talk about Army guys, their guts and heroism stopped with the defeat of the LTTE, now they are just pawns in the hands of the political forces in this country.

-0+3 # newspapercritique 2012-09-25 08:26

The only reason that Malaka is leaving the country is because his father knows that what ever the Major says and what ever support he has from the Commander of the Army, the Officer Corp will ensure Malaka is dealt with.

-0+0 # BattleZone 2012-09-25 08:35

I thought the Minister of education was suppose to given to Namal Rajapakse. Sorry Malaka you are only second in line.

-0+14 # Matalan 2012-09-25 09:21

The way this country is heading, it's going to be a toss up between Malaka and a chimpanzee for Education Minister's post in a few years' time.

-0+12 # conty 2012-09-25 11:23

And the popular choice is -------- "The Chimpanzee!! Sorry Malaka you won't make it

Dream on mate. By the time you finish whatever you are going to do overseas (I hope they'd teach you a thing or two there - you can't be putting on your airs like here mate), this country will not allow crackpots to govern us anymore. It'll be 'people power' that will ensure that you'd be once and for all rid from this country. They will ensure that crap like you will not be able to even enter politics...
