How about a debate between you and Dr PB Jayasundara? We all know that it is PB Jayasundara who handled the economy in the last government while a tailor is handling it now.

You mean the man who was kicked out of public office.
BuffaloaCitizen Wednesday, 23 May 2018 09:26 AM
It doesn't matter whether the man is a Tailor or a Ponnaya, the main thing is needs to do his job without robbing public money like all the earlier cowardly crooks did.

You mean a mice inviting a giant who defeated SF,Velu,UNP repeteadly,and who is assured to come to public office with the will of the majority...

Would be the most boring debate ever. Both are not qualified to talk about the economy.

A under garment designer and a lawyer debating about public debt?
vithura Tuesday, 22 May 2018 09:23 PM
Sorry, who is 'the lawyer' here?
Gayan Tuesday, 22 May 2018 05:47 PM
Finance minister should debate with Shadow FM Bandula. PM or Pres can challenge MR. Hope Mangala can challenge Bandula so people can see a fair debate on the economy.
Edwin Tuesday, 22 May 2018 05:48 PM
Wily old fox knows very well that no lions would not take challenges from foxes which not up to him.
Dee Tuesday, 22 May 2018 05:54 PM
Don't shame him. He would not have a clue. His adviser is also no more.
DHA Tuesday, 22 May 2018 06:03 PM

Debating won't help to bring down the cost of living !.
Unchikun Tuesday, 22 May 2018 06:55 PM

Nelum Fernando Tuesday, 22 May 2018 09:01 PM
Country's finances should be debated with a financial brain and not with a dress designer who is also capable of mud slinging.
Gemba Tuesday, 22 May 2018 09:29 PM
The good,bad and the ugly.
Ranjit Tuesday, 22 May 2018 09:29 PM

බැරිනම් පලයන් බන් ගොන් පාට් නැතුව.
Gummay Baiya Tuesday, 22 May 2018 11:09 PM
As if people of this country need more empty talks and worthless debates. These stupid idiots should all be lined up and hanged.
Kamala Wimalasinghe Tuesday, 22 May 2018 11:10 PM
You have no credibility Samaraweera. Did you find MR's so called 18 billion USD with the help of your Western buddies? If you have an iota of shame, you should not open your smelly mouth to discredit Rajapaksas. You may open it for other purposes you are well known for. That too only in the bed room with your sugar buddies.
dev Wednesday, 23 May 2018 09:23 AM
Did you guys ever seen MR seated on a press/Media briefing? he never ever done since he was a president, even for a political tv program ape hamaduruwane
