FM :Overseas Sri Lankans send millions of dollars home every year, helping to support the country's economy and foreign reserves. Yet many who invest their hard earned savings in businesses back home receive tax demands even before generating any revenue. What meaningful incentives or concessions are available to encourage investment and entrepreneurship?

BuffaloaCitizen :What sudden illness? Their is no illness that is sudden for which he could have stopped and pulled the brakes. This is drugs that these bus drivers intake with beetle. We need to ban the chewing of beetle by all transport workers. This is the silent drug but most dangerous than alcohol.

Sambo :How much could the health officers and the PHI's do. Our public are so careless that these sicknesses take place. Every year it is the same cry and the public are quick to put the blame on the government. People should be punished for what they do. This is the only solution.

Suren Sarathkumara :The ban of social media on underaged children is only importnt due to two effects it can bring on them. One is the excessive and harmful exposure the children might get on adults and the other is the vulnerability children inherently have in managing stress created by the social media in individuals. Children might get too close to the personal affairs of adults and get introduced to the realities of life prematurely. This would deprive them of merging themselves gracefully to adulthood and end up in a socially-disoriented position in adult life.

Tavisha Udupihille :They are totally unnecessary. Their presence just creates an unnecessary hassle to the public. Every government institution needs a letter from them for almost anything, and lately even private institutions have started demanding letters from them. While they exist institutions will not find other ways of confirming residency. They don't exist in other countries and those countries function just fine. They just request an electricity bill to confirm your address. This should be taken as a golden oppurtunity to rid ourselves of them permanently
