Only can give “good” mark for this bagging this rat…now to get an “outstanding” mark, let’s get the other fat-cats, including the biggest fat-cat hiding in Singapore and the UNP Yahapalanaya fat-cat who enjoyed a mysteriously given penthouse (that he enjoyed with his family until questioned how he got it, to which he answered “I don’t know”!!!) and the curse-of-our-nation ponniah-honcho UNP fat-cast who turned a blind-eye to it all!
well done for the arrest perpetual director
