    Meeting Anura Dissanayaka, husband of PUNCHI, by foreign missions is to sabotage the election under the instruction of the US, an attempt preventing Rajapaksas popularity to suppress by instigating and spreading falls image amongst the public. But whole the international world will fail this time, as Rajapaksas have highest popularity rate, given the opinion polls stastistic a review.

    It is one of the duties of ambassadors to meet news makers and chat with them. Nothing new although it is a novel experience for the JVP.

    Must be to test his English knowledge. Vijitha Herath must learn English well before becoming his interpretor.
