Wise move. This needs more studying before implemented. Workers need reassuring. They are worried about corruptions and state beuracracy.

Why SLFP has to suspend this. Is the Government has to decide.

If we all come out demand for what we need, not the great hypocrites in this country need, every step would have been taken with democratic manner for sure.

Cheers to the brave FTZ workers and the other public and private sector employees who took part in protests and showed their strength which brought the government down on its knees.

You can't fool the people everywhere at every time. A government forcing it's citizens to accept something is inhuman.

At last the People's Power succeeds! A good lesson for the government who boasted to introduce this daylight robbery with the power of their votes inside the parliament. Long live people power!

How does the Central Committee of SLFP decide to suspend a government bill?

Ripping from employees and giving that back after years as pension scheme is a real dumb suggestion........by the time we turn 55 even EPF money will be like peanuts depending on the currency values.....
