Yes he did what others didn't want to do after aragalya and he deserve the credit. However, he should have held the elections within 3 months and let the people decide their leadership.

For stabilising the Ugandan economy? Ugandan president should lay flowers at the feet of the rajapaksas.

How nice of him , our president must be contemplating selling off telecom at half price as a gesture of goodwill.
Natalie Nanayaka Saturday, 06 January 2024 03:35 AM
The Ugandan president is building a statue of the rajapaksa family in the capital for rescuing Uganda from bankruptcy.

Another example of double standards of ploiticians in SL. Wear the white national dress in SL and wear the tie and the suite oversease. Who is fooling whom, we all know the answer. This happens from the Green, Blue and Maroon camps.

It was no magic by RW. With no Forex all imports came to a halt, with Covid incoming Forex came to a halt and many overseas workers returned. Covid improving workers returned to work many more left for overseas work, Forex started to come but imports were halted except for needy items. This saved the Forex. Additional taxes imposed made the Rupee balance bigger resulting in some sections of the people starving
Sam Silva Saturday, 06 January 2024 07:28 PM
Point taken and agree. But the fact remains even the magic to perform as you have mentioned, no other leaders wanted to take the role. Only thing he didn't do is he did not keep his part of the bargain by not holding the elections within three months.

How about the return of Srilankan wealth by Rajapaksas.
dana Saturday, 06 January 2024 06:53 AM
He seems thanking MR for stabilizing his economy by hiding looted peoples wealth of SriLanka, in dollars in his country
Nimal Saturday, 06 January 2024 07:35 AM
The Ugandan president is clearly not well informed or is feigning ignorance.
Premalal Perera Saturday, 06 January 2024 08:08 AM
70% of the population is starving but the economy is stable? This is like "operation successful, patient dead"

Stabilising of the economy at what costs.? The outside world sees this celluloid movie taking place but not knowing how a majority of the people are going through untold suffering in their livelihoods. The present trend is tax every segment of society whilst politicians who have robbed the purse go scot free. Also politicians are parasites living a luxurious life whilst our professionals and others are leaving the shores of the country. Big question is " is this what you call stabilising the Economy ? Very Good Reality y show of the masses of the century.
Jude Saturday, 06 January 2024 08:33 AM
I wonder from where the Ugandan President obtained his Economics Degree!!?? Hello, the country was Bankrupt and nothing in the country is stable!!
Joshua Saturday, 06 January 2024 08:35 AM
Stabilising the economy by taxi g the people without taking action against the rajspakdhe theives. It is the people who should be hailed
Sambo Saturday, 06 January 2024 08:47 AM
He little knows how the people are suffering.
Sivalingam Saturday, 06 January 2024 09:53 AM
Harak Katha Nayaka wasting taxpayers money.
Lollypop Saturday, 06 January 2024 09:55 AM
Yes, after a lot of dollars were deposited in Ugandan banks by the Red Towel family, this president managed to somewhat stabilize the economy by scavenging all the hard-earned money of the people via excessive taxes and VATs.
Jude Saturday, 06 January 2024 10:29 AM
Rajapaksa's bankrolling Uganda with multimillion dollars invested there!!
roni Saturday, 06 January 2024 11:06 AM
The only leaders who visited or recognized Sri Lanka during the regime of the Rajapakse's were the rulers of the African jungle. This country was one such.
Giriulle Pala Saturday, 06 January 2024 03:37 PM
I am sure that he will send all Myna's illegal investments back to Siri Langa to solve its economic problems created by Myna, Gobbaya and Central Bank Robber Pin RW!
Anoma De Alwis Wednesday, 10 January 2024 01:33 PM
Economy stabilized? just balanced a little by squeezing the poor and by geo-political benifits!!. This is like "operation successful, patient dead". Is the economy growing? has the government expose the economy growth plan and post evaluation?
