just imagine the crispies that will be shown by the former leader more millstones will be made matter of fact 16 of them
So, has the current leader of the SLFP (sitting in the big chair) authorised the merger of JO and SLFP breakaways?
These people are the real example of opportunistic ones. One Pohottuwa got some votes in provincial elections, these 16 member group took a one step back. Now they take time to learn on more banking side.
But HE Maithreepala will make a decision to show them stars in days time when the time comes.
Dear Mr. Basnayake, Please dont make us laugh! HE Sirisena taking decisions? When? Where? Tell me at least one decision he made. May be for Bra s? Vita milk packets? What else? Please tell me I am waiting.
Amarakoon,
You are campaigning to Pohottuwa !!!.
Great people don’t make many decisions. His one decision sent Mahinda Rajapakse family home.
Dear Mr. Basnayake, Thank you for your reply. It was Madam Chandrika who told that People would have voted for anyone in 2015. It was the decision of the masses to send Rajapakse Family hope. That said, Rajapakse family (MR & Naml) still in the parliament isn’t it? I will campaign with Pohottuwa or even with the devil to send this government.
MR and Namal are still in Parliament because of the stupid PR system which we have.
MR and Namal should stand for election in the Northern/Eastern province (which have the most disadvantaged communities in SL) at the next election if they true, national minded persons.
If they are returned, I will support them.
When there were movements against slavery, there were slaves against it supporting their lords. in the same way people like Amarakoon try in different way to justify Mahinda Rajapakse.
Now we have freedom of speaking and democracy but people like mAmarakkon never enjoy it. After this government came into power, any single journalist was never harassed, . Even during the Sinhala-Muslim ethnic riots in Kandy region, no one was killed.
Evry family member in Rajapakse group has allegations.
but slaves like Amaarakoon needs such kind of government again.
Dear D. Ameripura, I have to disagree with you with one point Not only in N/E most disadvantaged communities live. Disadvantaged communities live Even in Colombo slums . What about Moneragala district? What about Uwa-wellassa? Why Namal & MR have to stand for elections in North & East? Can Tamil politicians from N/E stand elections in the South and win?
Dear Mr. Basnayake, I do not know how you come to the conclusion that I want MR to come to power. Just because I am against the present Yaha Palanaya set up it doesn’t mean I am supporting MR. To be clear, I respect him for giving the political leadership to win the Terror War. You talk about Slavery. Was it not the slave mentality to vote for NCM? Or support YP government doing nothing since January 2015? Or it was becoming slaves and been greedy for money? But please do not distort facts. You brought the issue of recent Sinhalese-Muslim conflicts in Kandy. You said no one got killed. The Driver who was attacked by Muslims succumbed to injuries. Did you see this in free media or you just do not want to say it in this forum? You talked about Media freedom: Can you remember how the YP government threaten media. RW several time threatened the media. Social media is continuously targeted by YP. For example, RW’s media right hand Thusara D. Wanniarachi said to have threatened a Committee member of Professional Web Journalist association Vimukthi Dushantha. Now the problem is one sided media fail to report important revelations to the Public. Because they are in the pocket of the Yaha Palanaya regime. Take this: Recently an outspoken female Lawyer Sugandika Fernanado dropped a bombshell accusing the legal system of Sri Lanka. Did any major news media report this (other than the journalist Chapa in clandestine Social media) ? Why? Was is not important? But I agree with you 100% because our media is the sole resource of HE Siresena to what is going on.
Mr.Amarakoon,
I would like to continue this discussion but I am busy with my own business.
Dear Mr. Basnayake, Nice to hear that you are busy with your own business. But please continue that Business. Do not stop the business and run away. We need good Business people like you. Otherwise we have to give our business to China, India, Singapur, Thailand. We are a nation who are forced to Sit under a coconut tree , eat a banana, meditate and go to Nirvanaya.
Dear Mr Amrakoon.
Thank you for your response.
This clearly shows that Sinhala Buddhists are totally incapable of honest government.
To support this assertion, I would like to point to Myanamar’s Theravada Buddhist leader who is now being ostracised for genocide of the Rohingyas.
Mr Amarakoo, the Tamil homelands will soon be born with a UN sponsored Plebiscite for self determination.
After that, Mr Amarakoon, you can hug and kiss the backsides of your genocidal Sinhala Buddhist Ranaviru forever and live happily ever after.
Dear T.Somasundaram, You were thanking me for my response for what? You came out of the blue to this thread and addressing me. Nevertheless my friend after attacking me you jumped to Myanmar Theravada Buddhism and Rohingyas. I just saw in Aljazeera how Rogniyas killed Hindus and forcibly converted victims wives to Islam. So, you want Buddhist to eat a Banana and meditate under a coconut tree and go to Nirvanaya. You talk about Sinhala Ranviruvo. And ask me to kiss their back. Remember some 28,000 Sri Lankan security forces were killed and 35,000 were maimed by LTTE (sure not by civilians). Whether we kiss our heroes back or front is our business. BTW, you guys commemorated your fallen terror fighters. Which side you kiss front or back! So, you want UN to sponsor your self determination. I already told you that it will happen after UN sponsor a self determination for Palestinians!
