Voters did NOT make you representatives to stage protests in Parliament. You are the Servants of the Public, the Voters! Get on with your Job in Developing Sri Lanka. There's no time to waste - like Nero playing fiddle while Rome was burning, we cannot afford to do so. The Voting Public are ashamed of your behaviour!

This is all useless, organize mass protests with suffering people in every town, make sure at least 4000-5000 people participate in those protests.Then only the rulers will open their eyes.

So how does the Parliament system works in Sri Lanka? The opposition can speak out not by debating but by protesting?
