Well the former Prez is suitable to become a scarecrow (pambaya) in a paddy field!
Reward for what?
Reward for cutting throat after sharing a Hopper meal?
The Scarecrow ex-President is not capable of anything.
His interpretation of the Constitution in 2018 was overturned by the Courts.
His Mandela speech in the empty UN Chambers was the biggest joke.
He wanted to become the Environment Minister with zero knowledge.
He screwed many alternative energy power projects.
It is disappointing that a senior politician should comment outside his purview. Ministers should “TALK” less and get on with their work and leave these matters to the President. Does the former president deserve a special post ?? No one will forget the hoppers and backstabbing, particularly the Prime Minister MR. When asked why he appointed Mr Sampanthan as the Opposition Leader against democratic protocol, he was reported to have said “because the international community wanted it” Such was the character of the man !
DO NOT INSULT Sri Lankans! DO NOT PUT THIS Sirisena pambaya into any position of stature in the new govt….perhaps the job of “mail room clerk, parliament administration” …that would suit that pambaya well!
