you guys want to make some issue out of any thing for petty political gains. If 5 year transfer is in place , let it happen as it is.

The efforts of the officials out on the field attribute to the eradication of Dengue & all other communicable diseases. Those who sit in air conditioned rooms collect data to impress their superiors.All government employees should abide by the PSC approved transfers which is manipulated by the GMOA. via DM Android App

How can Prof. Vitarana say: “Both of them have performed creditably in the eradication of dengue for many years and they have a wide experience in this field" when dengue is now an epidemic and our hospitals cannot cope with the huge numbers of patients. It is time for action, and all who have failed must be relieved of their duties.

why does this transfer scheme still operate in sri lanka. this madness, probably began decades ago, has no merit. a person who lives/likes to live in galle is transfrered to kandy. a person who lives in kandy is transfered to galle. this is common among teachers too affecting their cost of living. all appointments should be based on preferece of a person and experince.
