Public Relations and Public Affairs Minister Mervyn Silva said today his son Malaka would definitely come into politics at a future General Election.

When asked whether the minister had fulfilled his promises given to the people at the previous election and whether he was ready to contest at the next General Election,

he said he had a little more work to be finished and unless the government supported him to do that he would leave the government.

“I will not give false promises to gain votes and I will not come to parliament giving false promises,” he said.
