Sagiths face does not show that it was peaceful for him
RW won the day.
The candidate will be Karu J with a promise to abolish the Executive Presidency within a short period of time.
They did the same in 2015; unfortunately, the King changed his skin and became power hungry.
The proposal to abolish the Executive Presidency will go well with the minorities and UNP core supporters as we all have experienced the benefits and freedoms which come along with supremacy of Parliament.
I too agreed K J is the most suitable for President candidate. Then there will be General Election & PC. RW become pm. hope in the mid term of next parliament Sajith will be new PM.
BLA BLA BLA. The SAmnalaya is trying every trick in his book to become President
He is greedy old fart who does not know when to step down. Does he want be the leader of UNP for another 26 years so he can buck suck the Westerners.
You are on the spot, Fiery.
Karu will be the Presidential Candidate.
At the next Parliamentary elections, Navin Dissanayake, who has conducted himself with responsibility and decorum and who is also a capable of delivering policy will be the PM.
Ranil is gonna ask partners in DNF if they would support abolition of the Executive Presidency.
If they say ‘YES’, he gonna nominate Karu J as the candidate with an undertaking.
What a waste of time.None of these two jokers will win. Go Got a go. You are the only person who can bring SL out of this shit hole we are in at the moment. Jayawewa a vote!!!!!!.
Stanley,
I am shocked by your comment.
Calling our country ‘shit hole’ has hurt my feelings, badly.
Dear Stanley,
You are entitled to your opinion,
As a Sri Lankan Citizen, living in Sri Lanka with no political affiliations, I am proud of my country (and would not call it a ‘shit hole’).
There is freedom, there is no fear, there is freedom of speech, there is infrastruture development and opportunities for all those who seek opportunities.
I am proud that social inequalities between the varous classes in society, the rich, the middle class, the lower income groups, are being managed well.
In all countries in the World, there are deficiencies; Sri Lanka is not exempt.
In conclusion, I am happy the way the country is moving.
It is definitely not a ‘shit hole’.
Dear Fiery,
Admire your courage and strength.
What you are saying is that we fail to appreciate the good things around us.
We tend to follow Trump and say that we are living in a ‘shit hole’.
