Former Finance Minister Basil Rajapaksa returned to the country this morning to a grand welcome at the BIA.
Rajapaksa left for the US in September to receive medical treatment, after the Supreme Court allowed him to travel overseas.
A number of SLPP members including Parliamentarians were at the BIA to welcome the former minister on his arrival.(T.K.G. Kapila)

With this news item, I am eager to read the silly and stupid comments based on sheer jealousy, hatred and hypocrisy that are made on unsubstantial allegations. Over to you the lackeys' of JVP, SJB etc.

Yes, right at the end of the day , those who vote are not those who are writing comments here. Those who vote have no idea other than Basil the saviour. I guess you have to live with that or be one of them . No one really cares about the country, economy any way.

The grand welcome money should have been better spent like getting 20 more beds at the children's hospital... buffaloes will continue follow these specimens with their vote... sad plight of our country.

@max from your comments it is patently clear that you are one of the lackeys of the Rajapakse regime who have ruined the livelihoods of the public from all walks of life. Today everyone is facing hardships merely because of these rogues who have manipulated not only the Public purse but have been incompetent duds in handling the economy and putting the blame on the public. It seems you are a member of the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Association otherwise how can you justify the public suffering in queues for petrol, gas, kerosene and other essentials including medicines etc. added to that a runaway inflation. How come that the Sugar Scam, coconut oil scam and other nefarious activities like deleting the inventory of medicines were swept under the carpet. Only I can say by supporting these devilish manipulations of these scums will lead this country going into an abyss with no return. Sad for the future generation who still do not know the impact on their lives.

We are a stupid nation like all South Asians. It is time we identify competent, broad minded visionaries with national interest and harmony with all communities to run our countries. We need clever, compassionate, goal focused people. They can be from any background or religion or race but who can deliver a high quality of life and happiness to all people. The search must begin and civil society must help in identifying the right person.

Remote controls always of no use. That is why the Uncle-bappa of the nation risks everything and boarded to save the nation and above all to fulfill the dream of survival of the govt and prez. until the false promis to hod presidential election 2023 Nov. Daily Mirror insiders post most of the comments and one cannot get a clear cut view of general public by browsing, spending now expensive net charges. Printed matter cost also very high so people have to walk into watch Aragalayas to get the clear view.

Its quite hillarious that supporters of rejected and defeated parties in recent elections making salvos at the present government and its leaders, who were defeated in 2015!! All these parties ( winners at one time and losers at anothet time) by taking turns from one regime to another and the corrupt officials have ruined the country. Its like the pots calling the kettles black!! One group wear the nationalist racist cap and the other democracy yahapalu cap and both loot the country. All these groups (opposition and incumbent) who governed this country at different times since indipendence should be held responsible and rejected in whatever the form, new party/alliance they make to grab power. They just change the batton and runners, but run the same relay non stop.

It seems he is back to rejuvenate the party and take it forward to create more hardships and chaos to the people. He had to go to the USA for medical treatment because with his seven-brain decisions, he brought our medical and hospital services down to their knees. His presence here is going to agitate the masses and seeing his corrupt followers welcoming to greet him, makes your stomach turn.

@ max Seeking the services of a voluntary psychiatrist to do a thorough examination of him as it seems he needs medical attention considering his wires need tightening as he is a persistent supporter of the Rajapakse Regime who cannot understand that the public are suffering which was due to pilfering the public purse and using their peanut brains to steer the economy which have been the downfall of the livelihoods of the public

The normal IQ of a Sri Lankan is 79. This is defined as borderline. But those who gave that tampon-munching donkey cock Basil, who is a major culprit in the economic downturn, a great reception at the airport must have the IQ of a prepubescent village idiot.

You can see that when the Queen termite is in existence in a colony, all other small termites serve the Queen termite by eating and playing havoc with timber in others' houses. The destruction is their mandate. A pest control mechanism will be summoned very soon to get rid of the Queen termite, thus will be the end of all the sprats blowing smoke up on Queen's arse as seen in this video clip.

I can only see more trouble ahead for SL. Also, interesting that some readers are still supportive of this man and accusing our public of hypocrisy, unsubstantial accusations, blah, blah? Hmmm, wonder which country they reside? The man who ruined the country along with his siblings accorded a warm welcome and the people who spearheaded the Aragalaya for transparent governance and regime change are rotting in jail through the draconian PTA. Sad state of our country, indeed!

It looks like the 6.9million buffalos are still there in Sri Lanka. It is a shame the Basil...the biggest dud is considered as a genius by most of the Ignorant Sinhalese people. This guy should commit suicide for the irreversible damage that he caused to the country. He is the main player who gave begging bowl to the people of SL.
