@Azizam, actually people in SL helped a lot in this case. Even in offices (like where i work) people did collections and contributed.

Arent caste riots quite prevalent in south india especially TN?

@Azizam, You said you are worried about the support for ISIS inside SL. Do you know that while MR supports BBS he is building mosque based universities by Saudi funded money in east? He is trying to play the both sides..

Of course no doubt we need to change the system. Also nobody is pointing at MR for corruption by teachers or manipulations done by parents of school students. People are pointing at MR for MR and his corruption not of anyone elses. So talking about what school teachers do is simply trying to...

Government is the highest authority in this country and if such a mafia exists they have the power to act against them. There is no authority that yield so much power within SL except government. Gover has every right and authority to take action. If they threaten with power failures there is...

Again machan there is no wealth generation as you say. SL's main income is foreign remittances. That is our people specially young generation migrate to other countries and send the money back. Due to lack of industry and industry expansion the skilled labour and expertise migrate. They wont...

I know many SLns want to practice a singapore model in SL. It has been failure since JR's time.... machan freedom is also a part of quality of life..I wont debate with u on that. what you are saying is you have no problem with absolute power within a single person as long as he delivers...

yep.. I think what SL needs most is a citizen movement where we begin to educate our ppl. Our people do not have any idea on how our economy is run and no idea on the policies of our government. Hence they do not understand the stupidities and dangerous things teh ruling fellows do. I agree on...

What is this electrical engineer mafia? Is a gover project where gover spent billions under massive rates can be subject to electrical engineer's mafia? what was the gover doing? and is it only one ? but two! And Sri Lankan air is running at losses..is the gover learning any lessons from that...

This shows maturity of the catholic church! respect!

Mahaweli does have weaknesses and did not yield the expected amount of electricity. But still the hydro electricity generation was massively developed. With all weaknesses it gave us a lot of benefits. Same cant be said about Mattala, and even coal power plants built under MR. There are a lot of...

seriously men, i read the thread title as China's Subramanium

Did he really say such a thing? Is he associated with party?

i think for buddhists Pakistan is a pilgrim site as much as india

lets not be emotional and belittle others for their short comings. Lets develop our country.

No doubt Mahathir and other SE leaders were good economic managers. But i wonder the same can be said about MR. All state corporations under his gover and especially under his family members were huge loss. One can have a look at how Sri Lankan air runs and Mihin air one can see the level of...

i doubt that. because JR's open economy policy was the one single economic policy which made huge changes (both good and bad where good overshadowed bad) in post independance economy. Even foriegn economists who are extreme crtics of JR for his handling of tamil issue praise economic policies of...

The raise of salaries of public sector, mahapola sholarships and allowances for differently abled are certianly welcome step. But these things become action after July 2015. That is a thing to remember. I personally think increase of public sector salaries should be done annually. In private...

That is a misconception held by many SLns. We re not much better than our neighbours in SA, actually they are better. The only thing we are better are social wel fare, relative freedom, GDP. The problem is why SLG has not seek better loan sources? It is true that these conditions are set by...

That is because the people in SL do not have political awareness or any awareness at all. So they will BEAR all the hardships thrown at them because they like the leader. In a proper democracy gover should change every two terms. In SL this is not happening. JR did many cruel and anti democratic...
