How about assistant deputy minister as well? We might as well ask our employers to directly transfer our salary to the government. All the people who voted for this government deserve everything that's coming their way.

Even a standard pack of playing cards has only 2 jokers and some 50 odd playable cards but when it comes to this government is is all jokers and nothing else. The President should be ashamed to waste public money like this just in order to satisfy his uneducated buffoons.

I think this is a good move; more capable people to manage Government affairs. We can expect great strides to be achieved in the local Postal service under Mr. Sanath Jayasuriya's stewardship.

Sarath Weerasekara's appointment is justified considering the tremendous service he he provided whilst in Navy and then as the first Director General of Civil Defence Services. He is a very educated person with two masters degrees and a compassionate but a no nonsense character which is good for the Labour Ministry.

Sanath, an MP, the Cricket chief and a Dep. minister now. Where does he find time to do any work? He should be made the cricket boss and kick out of the parliament.
When a man released an A/L Physics paper in 1981 before the exam, on what basis does he become the Dep.Education Minister 32 years later?0 0
