Wishful thinking :Last few governments after Mahinda R said the same thing and implied that Rajapaksa clan stolen and taken away lot of money. Mangala S started this story (among other stories) with around USD 80 Bil in deposit in a Dubai bank etc. BTW 80 Bil USD is more than our GDP.
People who are knowledgeable knows after 911 incident in US, moving money around is not easy, also very easy to trace if someone did move money around the world. That is why Yahapalana, Ranil, FCID or AKD did not and will not find a single stolen USD. If you look at world’s corruption reports, money hidden in other countries are not considered a big problem.
All corrupt/stolen money is in Sri Lanka, with you and me and everyone. In all govt projects like highways, roads, buildings, hospitals, schools etc. Think about you, how much did you earn unlawfully and what did you spend on?

Jeanne :Think of it this way, people: This role is like a Salesperson's role. Base salary, then incentives (which have not been disclosed) on top of that. Everyone commenting here needs to realise that we are all being fooled by this salary/perks scheme. Wake up everyone - this is the new Sri Lanka.
