Whilst expressing that the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) will not allow the incumbent President Ranil Wickremesinghe to remain in power till 2024, parliamentarian S. M. Marikkar today said President Wickremesinghe will be surrounded from all corners wherever he resides, if he fails to resolve the starvation and other issues.

"We will only wait for a few more days and will surround the area where he lives and will confine him to one location without allowing him to move," Marikkar told a press conference. 

"We have given the President ample time to resolve the issues faced by the citizens and our patience is running out," he added.

"We did come to Colombo in large numbers and launched the Aragalaya initially before others took it over," he recalled.(Yohan Perera)

    This is the only solution. He has failed to show any results. Please surround him and all his boyfriend's and teach them a lesson. Then we must deal with MR and his sons who are the real criminals behind everything that's happening. The public will support you.

    The SJB seems to be becoming utterly desperate in advance of their impending oblivion. It seems as though he has dreamt up some hitherto unarticulated quick fixes to repair the economy. It is about time they voice their pipedreams publicly or just shut up, rather than criticizing his former leader for not delivering immediately using some sort of a magic wand. Perhaps he may now be realising that Harin and Manusha may have made a smarter decision after all.

    Punchi Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:16 PM

    It is not RW who is at fault, it is us because we are not making sufficient periodic large blood sacrifices like we did in the past to the divine protectors of our Buddhist paradise. As a consequence substantial numbers of our beloved people are going to die of starvation

    Anthony Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:21 PM

    The people of this country should not get hood winked where your talk is concerned, since the present situation cannot be solved over night SJB and JVP are only provoking the people, but they cannot do anything, but things will become worst, since they have no plan at all, but keep criticizing.

    Johan Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:26 PM

    Police Army should not much interfere because they know Ranil has no people's mandate but carrying out only Rajapakses Witch hunt against protestors without fulfilling people's needs .Almost five months in power only NGOs helping the poor.Govt.side nothing happened

    Mahila Wednesday, 28 September 2022 04:04 AM

    (Part I) This is stupid idea of a Nerd??!! People should understand only people who have resources (Funds – SL Rupees or USD) are able to help!!?? This is sine quo non to be recognised by all and sundry??! If not there wouldn’t been Starvation, denials to basic essentials – fuel, Gas, Rice, Power interruptions to people since 01/02/22?? Who does have funds/resources – Foreign funded NGO’s – though loathed by JVP/SJP/SLPP as vulture all this time??!! Even World Bank didn’t trust GOSL totally _ tainted to the core by R Bros., Inc., robbing and looting – Helping Hambantota, and (TBC)

    Prasath Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:43 PM

    Give Ranil some time, he is tactfully handling the situation as he has only SLPP support in parliament. He seems to be moving in the right direction as far as the economy is concerned. Country's situation is still in dire straits lets not push it further back, just give ranil some time.

    Sandy Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:49 PM

    Not the time for dirty politics, if ranil fails that doesn't mean someone else could have succeeded , There is no someone who has demonstrated that capability in the past.

    Let's be patient for 24 months Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:54 PM

    It's high time you chaps stop playing politics and keep the citizens hopeful and calm. RW been at the helm is much better then a total idiot whom we have voted for sitting there. Don't stoop to the low level if JVP PSF of frightening and agitating citizens for political gain.

    Mizaru Tuesday, 27 September 2022 02:55 PM

    Join the Aragalaya now and start work to remove Ranil. Ranil has failed many times and this time is no exception. You guys in the SJB only talk and no actions. First remove your present leader as he is rudderless. Can Ranil, Ranil and not president Ranil. Learn from the JVP on tough talk.

    tilak Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:12 PM

    looks like the SJB are not happy that people are not struggling in queues any longer

    Mahila Wednesday, 28 September 2022 04:09 AM

    (Part II) Therefore, insisted foreign NGO participation disburse “Poverty Alleviation funds and Essentials”? Is it any wonder, after ‘Tsunami 2004’ drama by political robbers and then being exonerated of any ‘wrong doing’ such as misappropriation!! Blame them if you can, than in slumber for last 2.5 years up to 02/2022?!!! Isn’t the creation of RW, who came into government only to resolve and access funding to resolve the impasse and suffering!!! Not the creator?! The situation has become much better than 06/2022 – 4 months period?? Well, the SJB/JVP are godsmacked that they missed a good opportunity to gain power?? (TBC)

    murthy Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:13 PM

    Does the SJB have any solution other than barking about an non wanted election to grab power

    Aquarius Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:14 PM

    RW is the fox we never want around. He is already sitting illegally as the leader of the country - not chosen by the people but by those corrupt pohottuwas. The constitutional loopholes are just there for him to survive. His main duties as the President are to attend funerals and has begun to kill democracy with his daily gazette notification.

    gamini Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:16 PM

    what do you plan to achieve confining him to one location and not allowing him to move? Will that reduce the cost of living?

    TS Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:21 PM

    Marrikkar, you and your big boss Sajith are only good for big talk. Your boss talks about the atrocities committed by past and present Presidents. Tell him to remind people about the atrocities committed by his father. With your big talk, you came to power in 2014, but people chased you away in 2020. Everybody knows why you guys are panicking seeing the progress of IMF talks and debt restructuring. So you want to sabotage it and put people into greater misery, as for you, you care only about coming to power, not solving the present crisis.

    Andare Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:29 PM

    Ranil can have an AF helicopter in the place he resides for use in an emergency to fly to the Maldives and have the entire Armed Forces and Police to guard his residence.

    Priyanee Wijesekera Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:38 PM

    They set fire to his private residence with the idea of murdering him,but they failed .Do they now want to do the same to his official bungalow ?If such a crime is committed we know who will be responsible

    Seqi Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:46 PM

    Does the SJB have any ideas as how to accomplish a better outcome than what is presently in play. Please publish in the local press your wonderful plan for Sri Lanka and how you would go about it..... slinging mud is pointless and muddies an already dirty game.

    Cheers Tuesday, 27 September 2022 03:57 PM

    Ram Tuesday, 27 September 2022 04:04 PM

    RW has become a funeral undertaker. Within a month he did two funerals. Nice to see SJB making a noise to send him on his final lap

    Dee Tuesday, 27 September 2022 04:11 PM

    Seems like SJB is forming a subversive arm like the DJV which terrorised our country during late 80's

    Paternal relationship Tuesday, 27 September 2022 04:31 PM

    Aragalaya that started as an orphaned child, has several who claim to be fathers. But these fathers who claim paternal relationship were nowhere to be seen when the participants were assaulted and chased away by thugs lead by by some ministers. We may even see grand fathers and grand mothers.

    Gon Miniha Tuesday, 27 September 2022 04:59 PM

    @Punchi You speak of blood sacrifice like you see blood and enjoying seeing it split. Your humor is often unsound, but now you seem insane.

    Rosh SUD Tuesday, 27 September 2022 05:28 PM

    This man is inciting violence and terrorism. He was another stooge of Sirasa’s kili as same as his baby brained boss. They are desperate after dropping the dolly catch given by Gota. To know Ranil I think you have to go back to school from kindergarten.

    Fairness for our citizen everywhere Tuesday, 27 September 2022 05:52 PM

    @Prasath Ranil and the UNP are failures. They may be clever politician but their approach of that of the elderly. Unsuited our time and for the full of life younger people. There is no time to give for those who should have retired a decade ago.

    Fairness for our citizen everywhere Tuesday, 27 September 2022 05:54 PM

    @gamini Cost of living will reduce once money printed is pulled down. As long as there is the over large military contingent being paid the inflation will keep going up. Attacking about HSZ is pushing against the defence forces, as they are the main beneficiary of the new project. They are likely getting even higher allowances, which again happens with printed money, so keeps ratcheting up inflation when they spend their ill-gotten wages. Ill-gotten whether they know or not is through money printing!

    Fairness for our citizen everywhere Tuesday, 27 September 2022 05:57 PM

    @Dee Well known saying - one mans freedom fighter is another man's terrorist. You must know everything is political when it comes to power. Anyway whom you disparage as terrorists are my fighters for freedom for all youth, and the coming generation. To hell with the Ranil/President and the SLPP/parliamentary majority. And the hell with it to the laws like PTA too.

    Against subsidy for religion Tuesday, 27 September 2022 06:00 PM

    @Paternal relationship Sadly another well known phenomena, the self-serving middle aged and elderly will try to take charge of any ongoing concern run by the young and naive. I am glad I am wiser for being middle aged, but know people my age group and older are far more cunning than the trusting and idealist young. I have seen enough of my age group take advantage of the younger people in business, management and in politics all the too much.

    Tom jones Tuesday, 27 September 2022 06:48 PM

    Mr. Marikkar will not come to the next Parliament if a election is held. He has a foul mouth.. He is a “ WACHALAYA” Marikkar is a very cheap politician.

    Mahila Wednesday, 28 September 2022 04:15 AM

    (TBC) (Part III) Harin and Manusha stand out in improvements!! This is pure jealousy!!! SOUR GRAPES?? KAAKKA WITH THE FOOD AND NARIYA’S STORY!! ELEMENTARY NOT UNDERSTOOD BY RETARDS!!! The SJB AND JVP who were only shouting around!! Get real?? If you have guts deal with the culprits out and deal with it as deserving!! The governance is improving with reduced pain to the masses!! Error TYPO (Part II) - 'gobsmacked' and not godsmacked

    Food first religious place last Wednesday, 28 September 2022 09:58 AM

    @Tom jones That so-called foul mouth man is better than the family who stole generation of wealth of this nation, and then whose governance us into the crisis. I would rather vote for anyone over the current government, Rajapakasas or the Mithripala SLPP.
