Sri lankan next women president!much conguralation join to the politics,we hope you will doing best services our motherland coming years.
It’s a trend in Asian region that greveness is the qualification for politics. We got good & bad results both from this trend. Mrs. Sirimavo, Mrs. Chandrika, Mrs.Gamini Dissanayaka, Mrs.Lalith Athulathmudali are few. Lets wait and see where Hirunika heading. What ever it is do good, speak truth & do right. You will never fail. Also please dont’t try to take revenge. This is Biddha’s land. May good God will bless you, protect you and guide you.
Priyantha aiya.
While I symapthise with Hirunika’s loss I don’t think getting in to politics to take revenge is the way to go.If the current regime is as bad as the rumors that are beeig spread then I have no doubt that this lady will do the same because she was never in politics before and she is getting in to politics for the wrong reasons.
O Young Lady,you have taken the plunge into the muddy waters of politics too soon,even without completing your studies. Beware there are Sharks,Whales and even wolves in disguise in this game.Now that you have taken the step let us wish you slow and steady winning the race.
Please first educate yourself. Get a university degree. You will have to meet foreign dignitaries. First thing they find out is whether you have undergone a good university education here or abroad. You are very young and have plenty of time to get into politics and move with disgraced people.
