Good move. It's always better to protect the local farmers. Only thing that the govt should do is to provide subsidy to the farmers so that the prices will come down.

who will speak on behalf of these poor people of this country? Will MR Speak? Or any other government minsters speak about this? Day by day their pockets are being filled and their children studying quality education in other country...living with luxry life.... Considering large number ministers, considering all personal entertainment expenses, considering elections.....day by day cost of living getting very high without war. The country developement not only making roads and resettling people for north and east getting foriegn funds. people should live happily getting their basic needs in effordable way. That is the real develpment of a country.

So now the solution is to go infront of MR house and request for potatoes with reduced price? or go to Johnson uncle? Suba "MAHINDA CHINTANAYK" SUBA ANAGATAYAK LANKAWATA.

Rather than implying taxes on poor people stomach.....WHY GOVERNMENT CAN REDUCE MINISTERS AND ALSO THEIR FACILITIES AND PACKS. IF THOSE THINGS ARE REDUCED, WE WILL HAVE ENOUGH FUND ....& NO POINT OF OCCUPYING FUND FROM OTHER EATABLE THINGS....From this who will suffer..only poor people of this country.

One time they import anything (coconut, eggs etc) and again they increase duty on other commodity. There is no balance or NO POLICY!

Everything is decided by president. Once all itme prices went sky rocket high he may ask to eat grass. But our beloved people would vote for him again.

Potatoes are not good for health: if you eat more potatoes, you just become like a potatoe.
