Not sure they mght even get the promised Rs.2500.- from the forthcoming budget. Now that Casinos have been legalized, there is an opportunity for everyone to play a game of luck and become rich instead of waiting for handouts from the government.

It is their right to get a salary increase and better life in Sri Lanka. It is not just limited to one famliy to enjoy the wealth of Sri Lanka. All people should open their eyes and come to street to get the country back from professional politicians
