Correct, who is the SLFP to make country decisions???

Fayad Tuesday, 31 May 2011 05:19 AM

Very true, decision should come from Government (cabinet Announcement ) not from SLFP central committee.

SLFP does not run the country...they can decide about the pension for SLFP members but not the country.....

Its like you commit a crime or make a fatal accident and ask your driver to surrender.
Self-explanatory!
