Even if you bring down an angel from Heaven the prospects of the UNP winning will remain bleak as they depend more on foreign powers.

Making Kabir Hashim permanent is good decision.

Kabir Hashim is a honest person and worked for UNP from the bottom to top. He should remain as a General Secretary in the years to come.

Malik, in a crucial stage your appointment is made. It is the right time for you to prove yourself and ensure the victory of UNP in the forth-coming general election.
