    Good to be at second level of the party leadership. Not the leadership. Hope that he and the others that matters understand that.

    Well done Mangala, one of the few Politicians uncorrupt, free thinker, non-racist, tolerant and most specifically not a humbug like virtually all the others in this parliament.

    Goes to show how the standards have dropped. Even he is surprised.

    BuffaloaCitizen Tuesday, 05 June 2018 04:14 PM

    Idiot, so if you fail an exam despite studying hard, do you claim the standards have increased?

    shahiq Tuesday, 05 June 2018 03:00 PM

    Effective from 26th April 2018, people get to know today. Very effective.

    Congrats Mr. Mangala. Sadly this is a little different to the appointment you got 30 years ago. This time you are in a party the is about to commit “Hara Kiri” or almost dead.

    R embedded 30 yearS ago the SLFP was moribund and embroiled in insights. So will M do repeat unification; This time of the GOP?
