    Our country is in this mess because we vote for such people that don’t care about serving the people and country and work with self centered vested selfish motive. Let’s vote for change and get competent honest leaders with a backbone that will put country before self. Wake up Sri Lanka. Have you not sufferers enough ???

    Why don’t Harsha accept the decision of the majority within the COPF. It is ridiculous to say that he is the best person to lead the committee. He did ok as the the chairman of the last committee. Please understand that there are others may be better than Harsha if there were given the opportunity to chair the committee. I watched most of the committee meetings on YouTube when he was the chairman. He did not allow others to speak or express their opinions. It was supposed to be a group Conversations. But he Ignored others. I think Mayantha will do a better job than you. Please do not resign.

    A unanimous selection will strengthen COPE to function.
