melville perera :If allowed this is an absolute waste of foreign exchange considering the large number of supposedly brand new vehicles and unserviced lying in the port thoroughly weather-beaten for several years reducing the exporters sticker price by a margin 25% making the vehicles valueless. Importers should first get rid of the backlog paid for upfront and pay up all arrears if any and auction these vehicles to recover their losses or else Customs should step in and auction the vehicles claiming demurrage and parking charges inclusive of security service As it is our roads cannot cope with a further surge of vehicles

Never allow anyone to talk the truth. :They don't like when someone talks about the ugly past. Those who are born after 2000, have no idea what we went through as small children in 1971 and as young adults in 88-89. They are trying to teach us how and what happened in those days. How pathetic!

S U Karunaratne :Wow! Listen to all of you unsympathetic hypocrites making accusations and assumptions without knowing the full facts! Don't judge a book by it's cover! Firstly, there should be more education about family planning but it looks like the couple married and had children a long time before they suddenly became homeless. Who is to say that this man is lazy and doesn't want to work or hasn't tried to get a job? Who is to say that the woman is lazy and just subservient to her husband and getting pregnant? They have only 3 children and the children are years apart. They can't live on the ground as they are practically living in the middle of a jungle and on the path of roaming elephants. Who knows who was in the right or wrong when they fell out with their family? In any Western country, children are treated as priority and safe guarding is paramount. The Government wouldn't allow children to be left homeless, penniless or without food. They have a responsibility to house them.

A Loving Citizen :Goodbye Felicia..the country will now prosper and be safeguarded by the inspiring and educated Sri lankan Youths, who don't mix religion and culture into politics and make money out of these brainwashing propagandas. Together, we will strive hard, to achieve the long lost dream of Singapore verision 2.0. (P.S - please take namal with you too, he is a bad example of what not to be).

lion :Even the guys are old ,they all know the taste of Diyawannawa and they wont easily get away from such comforts which comes as perks. Here they smell the danger of rooting out completely, so they just put forward the excuse saying that retiring from politics. This is not applicable to Mr Wigneswaran from the north.
