Without knowing the reason for the protest, many people are commenting here against the protest. They needed the protest when the previous govt. made a mess of the economy.

For once I have to firmly disagree with these student protestors. Private universities are a must if our higher education system is to improve. Besides, those who can afford it would be able to access higher education in this country itself without having to travel overseas. Moreover, is school education free in Sri Lanka. Almost all students who enter the universities have done so with the help of private tuition. What then, is free?

Students as tools by bankrupt politicians. Friday, 11 August 2023 08:05 AM

Mohan! If they are protesting against the previous Govt. they should have done it, at that time. not now. These students are being used as tools to sabotage the present govt. now in power. We have enough bankrupt political parties who use these idiotic students to retain their seats. One day there will be protest saying that Rajapaksas must come to power.

IUSF doing it's best to protect the free education against establishing degrade universities awarding degrees at a cost, like from a boutique and against debt optimization sparring their friendly business tycoons like Perpetual Treasuries, etc. Thank you and Warm wishes for their endeavor against a dictator whom, Juliea ignored unlike before.
