So if a person needs urgent medication they will not be able to purchase the items. Damn it, we have to stop being influenced and dictated to by these mental retards.

So am I to understand that places that sell drugs can operate on other days?

What about the people who eat and drink. You think only of your selves.

Eventhough liquor shops closed for vesak, people stock liquor prior to closure of liquor shops, my personal view is that closing liquor shops is not a wise move, keep liquor shops open on all festive days but close meat shops only, closing liquor shops, will boost illicit liquor sales.

Did Lord Buddha say to close those liquorshop and Meatshops only for Vesak and Poya days? Learn to respect Lord Buddha honestly.

A country gone mad governed by religious fanatics, only to show off. If so, why is the country full of corrupt people and murderers? Is being corrupt a sin? Having a beer for enjoyment is not a sin. Then why are those liquor shops open in other days? Is it not a sin to drink on other days? What a joke!. Btw, what about promoting tourism? HAs anyone of you being to Thailand and seen how they do it?

What sort of nonsense is this? Why don't you engage religious police to check if someone is consuming alcohol and meat and who refrain visiting Pansals on these days. And close all entertainment venues, movie theaters, shopping malls, tourist attractions, etc.? That kind of fanaticism.

Yes during Vesak liquor shops will be closed but illicit liquor outlets run by Ministers and MPs of SLPP will be opened.

Liquor shops will be closed but Ruling party members storerooms are filled with Arrack. I saw how Aluthgamage transported Arrack to his residence and unloaded at Dolosbage.

Give notice to the public well in advance so that they can stock their liquor!
