Excellent idea. Let the political partys and contestants publish their manifestos and put them through letter boxes. No meetings, no loud speakers, no banners nor flags on the roads. SL should grow up and show to the rest of the world how election propaganda carried out.

Congratulations Mr President. For a start, drastically reduce the utterly wasteful expenditure for electioneering. Secondly, use your Good Office to Reduce the number of Parliamentarians by 50%. The entire Country will be with you. Good luck Sir.
