A STRIKE NEEDED TO GAIN SALARY INCREMENTS, SAYS LAL KANTHA
Chairman of the National Trade Union Center K. D. Lal Kantha has highlighted the need for a strike, in order to gain salary increase.
He echoed this sentiment while addressing the 14th annual convention of the all Ceylon Railway Employees’ General Union.
“It is essential to launch a strike in a bid to obtain a salary increase. The number of times is irrelevant. Give us a bit more time. This government is bankrupt. What is the income that this government has?
“The economic plan of this government is to earn money through gambling. They are trying to engage in gambling and have passed laws in this regard as well. What will happen thereafter? The members of the government are collecting commissions and are trying to develop the country’s economy.” said K. D. Lal Kantha.

This ideot Lal Kantha don’t know what he is talking about.
He said “This government is bankrupt. What is the income that this government has?”
If the government has no income, this ideot must make some suggestions how to earn income rather than destroying the country through strikes.
Those foolish people who would fall in this ideot’s trap may lose even their existing income by losing their jobs like what happened during JR’s time. I am not sue Lal Kantha has a plan to look after those who lose their jobs by taking his advise.
