Why can't the Sri Lankan people who are starved of a proper person to become president of the country make this eminent man the president? He will appoint the right person with the appropriate qualifications for each ministry and the country will start prospering like never before. See what will happen to Jaffna in the near future compared to the other provinces where the CMs are all useless people.
