Colombo, May 20 (Daily Mirror) - The Public Service Commission has approved the permanent appointment of 3,500 Multi-tasking Officers attached to the Wildlife Department to maintain electric fences, Environment Minister Dr. Dammika Patabendi said.

He told the Daily Mirror that the Multi-tasking Officers had been carrying out their duties across the country without being included in the permanent cadre until now.

They should focus on bee fences which have proven to be feasible and effective in Africa.

idiots rule this country. if ever electric fences should be commisioned that would be either sides of elephant corridors. the human swines whoo have encroached forests and jungles illegally with the blessings of corrupt politicians and forest officers, are 100% responsible for the eleohant-human conflict well when GODEY YAKKU rule sri lanka from media to public adminsitrations and when ARTS QUALIFIED SLAS bums admin this country, we will never see progress in the right direction. enough is enough.
