what was the medium of communication?
AKD does not speak a word of English or Hindi.
You are a damn fool. You display your mad illogical reasoning.
How do you decide that he cant speak English ?
You trust opposite politicians views in stages.
He speaks English very well, not any Hindi man.
Bas,
I am just making deductions for the behaviors of this leader.
If he can speak in English, he should use that media where appropriate; for eg: SL Chamber of Commerce.
When he is in the North and east, he should speak in Tamil similar to MR.
If he keeps blasting in high-flown Sinhala all the time, the alienated people will be isolated.
Knowledge of his discipline he followed at the university (remember Graphite!) and the English language skills of the person in the discussion is questionable! That said, I am sure he can understand English and his entourage are fluent in the Queens (now king’s) vernacular.
