Already, wow. We have such a competent bunch in the Parliament. Already have two thirds majority in the house, why is this 20A? From one family to one man?

Why he did not ask from his Wife, brothers, sons and other relatives? Without wasting poor people money.

Any change to 19A through 20A without 99.7% of votes in the Parliament will be considered a weak amendment as 19A was passed with 99.7% of votes.

Haste makes waste. Expect another 5 amendments, one per year. The last one to come will be the most damaging, the Mother of All Amendments.

appointing committee is an eye wash.most members want to make sure there place in cabinet and state ministry.they are not worried about 19th or 20th.they are deaf and blind.they will never open their mouth against GOTHA unless MAHINDA is supporting them from behind to keep his powers as per 19th amendment.20A will go through even with the support of some members jumping from muslim parties expecting 1/2 or 3/4 minister position.SJB(sajith rotten balawegaya)will be in pieces once 20th become rule and operative.
