Internal issues of Samagi Jana Balwegaya (SJB) and crossovers are not the most important issues at the moment as there are greater issues that have to be focused on, such as violation of the IMF agreement, SJB MP Chief Opposition Whip Lakshman Kiriella said yesterday
“The most important is the violation of the agreement which the government has signed with the IMF,” the MP told a press conference.
“As per the agreement the government is bound to identify governance and weakness risks across certain core state functions namely fiscal governance, financial sector oversight, Central Bank Governance, market regulations and rule of law. What is critical here is that the government has violated this on six occasions. One aspect of this is the postponement of local government polls,” the MP said.
“What is important is the consequence which the government would suffer as a result of violating the rule of law,” he added.
Asked about the crossovers and taking action against those who are to crossover, he said these are not important at the moment. “I have already talked about crossovers in Parliament and I don’t want to talk about them anymore,” he said in this regard.
The media institutions were informed that MP Mayantha Dissanayake will also participate in the press conference but he did not turn up for it. (Yohan Perera)

Kiriella is one of the Stalwarts in the SJB who is down rated by the Voters in clean governance. when he was in charge of Highways. What he now says are quite true but the IMF appears to overlook the wrongs of the present Government as they go along with anything that is done by Ranil. even if they are unethical ?

Yes, you are quite right, SJB is not considered a genuine political Party by the people to hold the country in a right track, but you do not talk about the IMF that buys Sri Lanka under the US COMMANDS whereby we Sri Lankans became SLAVES and lost our resources
