Oh Arundika,
You will not be missed. You were Deputy Minster in two dead Yahapalana Ministries.
Christian Affairs – There’s nothing to do there; Cardinal Malcolm R is the best friend of SLFP/UNP and the Mahanayakes.
Tourism Promotion: The ageing single Grandmothers from Germany will always come to have a good time with the beach boys. Nothing to do there as well.
So Arundika, having enjoyed as Deputy Minister at taxpayer expense for >2.5 years, it is time to go, my dear. The taxpayer and the voter in Sri Lanka will not miss you.
In fact, the taxpayer will be smiling because of saving more than LKR 500,000 per month to support you and your catchers.
Bye Arundika, good time always come to an end.
