wouldn't it be great if the indigenous medicine in Sri Lanka created a cure for a world wide pandemic. It would be 1000times better than this chemical crap which is not tested enough.

In some countries, hiring relatives to their office for MPs are illegal and not accepted because it can allow to cover up easily. Relatives can collude with each other to cover up any white color crimes. Sinhalese need to educate themselves to wake up before it is too late
