People never learn, they are treated as fools with false promises by our politicians and they will fall for them always.

Is it reasonable government unions take such a unilateral decision without consulting other unions?.
Yohan Tuesday, 29 June 2010 09:22 PM
While the budget is read, the Finance Minister/President leaves the country?

During Presidential election HE Rajapaksa promised the pay hike. HOW WE CAN BELIEVE HIM and the GOV.
False promises and telling lies,this can not go for ever.citizen1 Tuesday, 29 June 2010 12:35 PM
Hogwash! This is equal to the earlier promise (empty). Zero will come out of this declaration.
Mohamed Tuesday, 29 June 2010 12:13 PM
Ha! Ha! Ha1 Keep the good work. The people who voted against this govt knew what is forthcoming after the General elections.
BUGGER Tuesday, 29 June 2010 09:44 AM
What about the salary increase promised during the election
Wijewardena Tuesday, 29 June 2010 11:37 AM
Local boy, you are a government supporter?
adam Tuesday, 29 June 2010 11:33 AM
All lazy public sector workers have ever thought of creasing their productivity? ,then why only salary increase. First improve the quality of service you provide before asking salary increment.
Ranjan Tuesday, 29 June 2010 11:23 AM
Then why did He promise Rs 2500 salary hike?
Calistus Jayatilleke Tuesday, 29 June 2010 11:22 AM
Some erstwhle supporters pretend to have forgotten the promises made by UPFA during the presidential elections that a wage hike of Rs. 2500.- will be given to public sector this year. The voter buffalos decided that the 2500 promised by the UPFA is more likely than the Rs.10,000.- hike promised by the oppositon. So now, it has turned out to be another broken promise and so called patriotic voters appear to have been taken for a right royal ride as usual. Serves them right.
local boy Tuesday, 29 June 2010 11:12 AM
I can't understand why government can not bring down prices of essential goods even after the war ?
Jagath Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:59 AM
Good for the public sector emplyees who voted hands down to elect this Govt.
PARAMANATHAN.K Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:43 AM
Salary increment for the public servants is a long overdue. They should have been awarded good increment at least last year. This is one of the main reason that the government departments have become highly corrupted and inefficient.
SUMINA Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:30 AM
LIKE WAITING FOR GODOT ?
BURGER Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:27 AM
No one from the ruling party promised a salary increase during election period. It is the Opposition who promised to give Rs. 10,000.
Ravana Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:26 AM
That promise was made to the same people who expected rice from the MOON !
Senior Citizen Tuesday, 29 June 2010 10:08 AM
Another broken promise under various pretexts.
