Ordinary people wherever they are normally complain on a few Rupees charged extra by a three wheel driver. But they have no choice with the Tuition master, doctor and lawyer.So called professionals in state sector are even more smarter as they rob the nation with no sense of shame.

President making grave mistakes again and again, this time dissolving State Banks and BOI board of directors.President is doing all these things not for the betterment of our country or people, but to safeguard is crown.People needs to understand and correct themselves not to appoint Mr. Sirisena again to the highest post of this country.

Why is the President not taking swift action against the SLFP and UNP Mps who have and are robbing? Why is he not taking action against Rajapakse family, he can clearly see that the cases are being postponed every time they are called.

He has taken correct decision though it's too late and too little, he should kickoff the useless ministers and give those ministries to young genuine MPs whom are more capable and dedicated to develop the country without corruption.

The BOI Board was the worst ever. The Minister lost control of the Board with 3 director crooks who came from the corporate sector controlling things. They all should be investigated for corruption.

Thank you in advance.

President is not doing with investors confidence. All chair of those institutes were appointed by The President of this country. If two leading banks were being mismanaged means who will give guarantee for depositors. Otherwise there is a reasonable doubt about presidents reason actions.President's bad comments on Sri Lankan airline matter will affect global sale on Sri Lankan tickets. We have to go for President election and Parliament elections like RAW wishes.
