All foreign food aid has gone to feed politicians and their families, our 330,000 Army, followed by our hundreds of thousands of monks, The people bless them may have empty stomachs, but their souls are filled with the triple gem

If this is true, all the grandeur and pride for Independence day celebrations as expected by President Ranil seems is utterly too much. All the pride about our nation won't alleviate the protein malnutrition amongst our children that has been in our country for decades. Even the public holiday for government offices to revere the recently deceased Queen of the British is a brazen misuseof government funds. Even if 100 MPs went to the funeral of the deceased UK monarch, it would still be cheaper than having all government offices closed for a day. It's printed money those state workers having the government holiday are being paid with, and the printed money worsens inflation and make those in poverty worse off. This corrupt use of government funds by the President and government in power has to be ended as soon as possible. Even creditors owed billions will sneer at us or think worse of us for knowing we're having a public holiday for the British Queen.

Rs.2150/- a day salary Wednesday, 14 September 2022 11:09 PM

Do you want to really know the cause for this frail, under nourished frame of our citizens? Look at the robust physique of our politicians and you will have the answer. But what is puzzling is how do they grow fat on a daily salary of Rs.2150/-
