Does this take into account foreign media advertising presumably for the consumption of the Sri Lanka community who follow such articles???? EG: Baba mail that has shown a tendency to increase its publications recently

Oh, god, what a waste!. Could have been built 1200 houses for house-less people even spent 1mn for a house. Currently Housing Authority gives 400,000/- for a house as loan. As a nation long way to go.....!!!

They could have easily reduced the price of bread by 5 rupees at least with that money...but they love the country so much that they instead spend all that money to be the president so that they can reduce the prices of all food items it looks like....
