Wise move to your party members to remain in the government as the main slogan of your campaign was to eradicate corruption and fraud and murders mainly on journalists by the previous regime. via DM Android App

I am waiting to see what the parrot Minister Susil Premajayantha has to say now. If he has self respect he should quit the government and join the JO. Please!

Yes, that would be the proper decision and if still MS to remain in the SLFP Chairmanship, just start reforms from there. The best option is MS to be independent and unite the forces against the corruption and set an example of statesmanship. RW must handle the economy without slips as of BOND scams. When it is given the job to SB, for SLFP led government, we know that it is a master stroke to keep SLFP and Pohottuwa in check, as MS and RW all along planned things well ahead. Maybe only Dayasiri, Ranuan and very few may have known the real strategy

You can't have your cake and eat it. Focus on the promises you gave not a lousy patronage to party. People who voted you are waiting for that change.

Please do NOT criticize the President's decision. Because long term political crises can have impact on Economy. Also, the foreign investors will lose confidence; hence it can affect share prices, exchange rates etc.

You can't remove PM. Even if you want the West, our neighbouring countries and NGOs will not give you permission to do so.
