    Public Money wasted here. Last campaign of MAHARAJA reminded us of US election campaign though SL people(low income) are so poor, even to have proper meals for kids.

    THIS IS HOW OUR TAXPAYERS MONEY IS BEING WASTED!

    All clocks seams to have stopped more-or-less at the same time. May b thats the time MR realized that he doomed. via DM Android App

    anybody can import such things if he needs it. MR was probably trying to place his son after his tenure. But why is port authority involved in this? Was there any illegal deal? if yes the money should be claimed by the present authorities from MR and the gang. This family is full of corrupted scam.

    But all the clocks now say that his time is up !

    truth Sunday, 18 January 2015 03:38 PM

    Media has to publish all the recovered illegal items with pictures. Just saying found his that wont help. Whats the meaning pf sports car? You have to publish the pictures as well for people to understand the severity of the corruption. Media went inside president palace, did they publisg phoos? Just claiming found pools etc etc just a eyewash and people wont be able to imagine how massive the corruption. Recently found container with sound equipments worh of crores. No photographs were released. If you can publish photos of items seized at customs, why can publish these items?

    So here iswork for Arjuna Ranatunga - how the Ports Authority worked for MR with our tax payer money. They shouldall be surcharged personally for the moneys (ours) spent

    Must be from China. Gift for them.Paint the photos and give it to poor people or if they do not wont it dump it in the sea.

    public Sunday, 18 January 2015 02:59 PM
