The Title says "$2.5 mn" but body of the news says "US $ 250 million". Which is correct?

When are going to stop this borrowing. When we see your obituary notice. The Kalu Kaputas have stolen our economy.

Not too long in the past, this once pompous nation called Sri Lanka joined the vocal echo of calling BD the 'begging bowl of Asia. So what has happened now. History has turned itself upside down. We are now eating 'humble pie' and tapping at the door of BD with our own begging bowl. Shame.

Up to now, this government has not provided one single plan to overcome the present crisis other than blindly borrowing from all neighbors.

I can’t believe it. Make two states in one country first. Ask the diasporons for a loan afterwards.

Whether you are begging from all these countries for our survival or your family survival is the biggest question in our mind. Where is the one one law country expert? Can't he advice the President to solve this economic crisis.

This country only belongs to Sinhala Buddhists. There is no way we can share this with Tamils or anyone. We don't want the money from Tamil diaspora. It is 1000 times better to beg from the poorest of the nations than getting help from Diaspora and sharing our country with Tamils.

Where is the pride of the Supremacist race of the Sinhala people? Should chose to die than beg. Ethiopia is doing a lot better than SriLanka. Sri Lankan shanties were named koriyawa, where Is Korea now? This is our own making.
