Excellent Choice RW, Four efficient guys.
Hope Hon Prasanna can get rid of SLTDA Boss, Ms. Kimarli Fernando who is rupturing the industry.
Sorry guys,
I thought Prasanna was going to his tourism portfolio.
He will not be able to thrash SLTDA Boss, Ms. Kimarli Fernando.
That’s OK.
Hope these were sworn-in before Aragalayas at gota-go-home per the constitution!
Good choice.
Please give telecoms and Media to Harin; there isn’t anyone else in Modadasa’s SJB.
Patali Champika is a good guy for development.
The lady in JVP, Dr Harini, will be good for women’s affairs and gender.
TNA’s Sumanthiran might be good for Justice but Ali Sabry is also a go-getter. Ali Sabry will be good for Constitutional Affairs where major reform is essential.
Please do not touch SJB blabberer, Dr Harsha or the impotent Eran W for any position.
Also consider Namal for IT & Sport; he’s allright but he’s got to come clean with alleged corruption.
The Moslen guy Hakim and Thodaman (for upcountry estate issues) are also OK.
Those who are to be sidelined altogether are Fonseka, Dr Bandula, Kehelmala Rambukwela, Wijedasa Rajapaksa, Rajitha Senaratne,
