Sri Lankans are very ungrateful and coward.
JVP is standing at every means for poor and working class. When government is increasing electricity bill, when government is planning to abolish EPF, when government is planning to abolish pension scheme, JVP is demonstrating for poor for farmers and working class.
But they vote for other parties.
They could have voted more for JVP, if they are decent grateful people.
