Why not lock down the country for ever. I don’t think anyone feel the difference.
Why not Malwatte and Asgiriya Mahanayaka Theros can set an example by setting up a fund to help the poor people whose daily earnings going to stop wit the lockdown? Both sects are obscenely rich. They can start the fund with one billion Rs from each side and the people who have some money to spare will start contributing. Mahanayakas seem to be doing what they are good at doing. Preeeeeching like parrots!
