An Optimistic Sri Lanka Thursday, 30 April 2015 12:39 PM
Everyone must start thinking in the bid picture and look to the future. Please stop dwelling in the past and indulge in blame game. While politicians are doing a proper job of work, let the people of the country to have the freedom to engage in their work well. Let farmers cultivate, teachers teach, workers work, engineers construct, pilots fly, doctors/nurses treat and so on...! Then only the country move forwards. This attitude change in society shall start from HE President himself.
Bala Thursday, 30 April 2015 01:02 PM
Forget and forgive those who said unkind words like WW and did bad deeds like MR. Let us move on and you lead us with such great assurance and compassion and always doing the right thing. Thank you and Sri Lanka will be with you except the few who sow hatred like Dinesh Vasu and WW.

why lamenting now. He could have shown his achievemts when he received them. Now weeping for lost glory makes him another bankrupt politician
aroosha Thursday, 30 April 2015 01:14 PM
HE president Sirisena is the Most honest politician we ever had in this country. I personally believe we would have him as executive president with all the powers but not to anybody after that. Powerful executive presidency is good provided people elect the correct person which hardly happens in our country.
Sincere Thursday, 30 April 2015 01:25 PM
Mr. President, We all know that what type of achievements the previous regime looked for and well recognized. So just say, "Forgive them for they did not know what they were doing"
Ajja Thursday, 30 April 2015 01:33 PM
"The Treasury earns more than Rs.60 billion as revenue from the sale of tobacco and another Rs.55 billion from the sale of alcohol".Mr.President,do you know how much the tax payers spent for cancer and other hospitals island wide to treat those people who smoke and drink..may be Billions more than that and the life of those lost to their wives and children are immense.So close all the taverns island wide.

This man is always mourning and groaning. No wonder he himself says people are making various comments about him. Get rid of the person who is writing your script or giving you advice on what to say. He or she is doing more damage than you think.

Their are chain smokers and alcohol drinkers and drug users who are addicted. Research and knowledge of recent research to kick the habbitis necessary.Multi nationals are a strong organization that we have to face.

Free of alcohol and tobacco will never be possible, nowhere in the whole world. Bans bring no results, only education !

No alcohol, no tobacco is an illusion. Education as prevention can help.

evening 6 to 10 all politicians should send to be with their families. at least Parliament should have holidays 2 months.
dwickra Thursday, 30 April 2015 04:09 AM
What achievement you are talking about Mr . President?That is the gift Western powers gave you to be a part of their conspiracy. or prize paid for removing from power someone against them. Those are not achievements sir ,

sobers Thursday, 30 April 2015 07:24 AM
Your Excellency, with so much of difficulties and obstacles achievements to date are commendable. Srilankans are becoming more arm chair critics. Especially, the politicians. Go ahead with your programs, the majority of the public supports you. May you have the blessings of the triple gem.
raj Thursday, 30 April 2015 07:54 AM
tobacco free society is a global goal. Sri Lanka should be partner of that. May be the government should not hire people who are smokers or alcoholics. By doing so, it can motivate citizens to away from tobacco.

Alcohol and tobacco create major problems in our society.we relay appreciate Mr. President achievements and try to do best to create alcohol and tobacco free country.
upali Thursday, 30 April 2015 10:44 AM
May be these awards were given on your pre-planned process for a regime change.
G.M. Jayawardena Thursday, 30 April 2015 10:56 AM
Award winning is a personnel achievement not for the ministry whose services have been on the down trend since 1977. Ask any patient whether that person is receiving proper treatment from the govt hospitals without having a private counseling with a doctor. Not only the health service all other services are on haywire since 1977 and no govt seemed to have ever tried to improve these services.
JO JO Thursday, 30 April 2015 11:02 AM
Monkey praises his own tail. Either ban totally liquor and smoking or allow these to earn income for the state. The choice is yours.Please face reality and be practical as a leader without trying to be a Bodhisathva.
Mason Thursday, 30 April 2015 11:02 AM
In order to elevate yourself some resort to suppressing the greatness of others. This could be a reason for not recognizing your achievements by the earlier regime.
