  • Enough already, last Tsunami nearly 20 years ago, not another due for 1000 years Saturday, 30 December 2023 12:13 PM

    Bringing up about non-events, and minor earthquakes near the anniversary is disappointing. The harm done by the current SLPP-UNP government is actually causing more deaths in the years of their power than the Boxing day Tsunami.

Thus both RR and their cronies including and stooges from time to time since year 2005 devastated this country by looting our assets it is also almost similar to the tsunami catastrophe. After the vat and other tariffs are increased the poorest people among poor who are living close proximity the coastal belt will experience another economic tsunami that is unprecedented

    Some would have been waiting with their mouths open for more ADARA like helping Hambantota.

    A future NPP government will stop even a tsunami. Please vote for them. 6.9 million votes should do the trick- like it did in 2019!
