Its time the Govt of SL introduced more buses than wasting money on Tamasha's and other useless investments...
The Private Bus operators have become a big issue for the people and its time they either work or come under state ownership. We are fed-up of their strikes..
Failure of successive Govt's to introduce a proper transport system for the people is a real shame...

Use the Quality buses and driver only, pay little more to the driver. Swamping a card also good or buy advance.

Gemunu is also close to MR. This is a distraction before something else like a fuel price hike is implemented. via DM Android App

Comon! They could have selected another day to have their strike than on a day which is rainy being the first working day of the week. Show some sympathy to the commuter!

Please take the private bus administration under MoD. They only concern about their own benefits never deliver their obligations. Or introduce a service level contract to bus operators when they are given permits cancel it when they fail to meet the service level.
