    It is pre- planed, paid coup by Maldive Police and MNDF personal who was with Gayoom the dictator. It is an illegitimate
    government.

    Sri Lanka, and other Nation must not except the Maldive Government.

    Settle your inter-party issues first.

    Ranil, please do not worry about Maldive problems because you have many problems to solve yourself. After loosing elections after elections you still wants to be the leader of the party. Your leadership is the biggest problem and this is damaging the country. Please worry about your own problems and MR will do his job.
