These idiots / monkeys in the Committee, have they accepted their appointments?
These idiots are shoring up a regime which is tottering on its last legs.
They Satakaya Clan know better are even shipping their stolen wealth under the guise of nuclear waste.
Never seen such idiot professionals in my life.
Roxie, It does not quite fit even for the idiots to swallow since Sri Lanka does not produce any significant amount (very possibly none) of nuclear waste and whatever produced is dealt under the observation of IAEA (just do some work to find out what IAEA is, it is good for your moronic, disillusioned senile head). What about coming up with Rajapakshas are even shipping their stolen wealth inside the guise of used Srilankan sanitary pads? That will be somewhat believable to the uprising population. Bye for now my love. Just wait for the announcement by British Foreign and Commonwealth Office warning British tourists not to go to SL due to unrest. May be you can pickle that achievement to preserve since it is coming on top of the US warning to American tourists.
