The same fate of former minister Ratnayake will befall on him, or talking as he has sensed a re shafel.

Nothing but another typical UPFA politician who knows how to wiggle out of a situation like an "eel" by saying something or other to suit the moment.

This is a well informed interview. Congratulations Minister. Can I clarify one thing. You said T20 offcials have made reservations for 90000 (ninety thousand ) rooms > Is this correct?

Looks like you are a different kettle of fish, compared to other politicos. Well conducted interview with facts and figures. No doubt, reputed cricket clubs will become a spanner of the works for your credible plans to re-structure SLC. Reputed clubs are only worried about their existence, not the development of SLC. All the Best Minister.

Questions obviously given in advance and answers prepared by someone else...still pathetic delivery !

The answer to spotting genuine talent is not to give the cricket board cronies 4 year terms but to hire a person like Ian Chappell (if you can get him) to go around the provinces and find the talent.

At last, a minister who knows what he is doing.

Are you joking , or are you on his staff ? They are all good talkers , but the loss to Sri Lanka is in billions of rupees. The damage to the image of the country cannot be quantified.

You seem to be better than what we thought of you. Just take steps to eliminate corruption from SLC. However a 4 year period for SLC officials is far too much. Just reduce it to 2 or 3 years . Nothing beyond that. Otherwise the SLC office bearers will start to engage in organised corruption within the organisation.
