This type of drugs from all over the world because there is a demand in Sri Lanka. Who are the agents is S.L? Must be with the blessings by the Sri Lankan politicians. How come the politicians are rich today, when they came into politics, they had nothing. After their first year in politics, what they have in property ownership in Sri Lanka and overseas? Sri Lankan population misled by the Politicians. God, our God, if you are the only God, please help this Buddhist country to to proper. Now this country is the lowest of the lowest in the world? Why? Think? Pray to a living god who created heaven and earth. God bless this country.

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF PRAY Friday, 23 August 2024 10:33 PM

SAMMY, WELL SAID. HEAPS ARE PRAYING, INCLUDING THOSE WHO NEVER BELIEVED IN THE LIVING GOD. PEOPLE WE MUST KEEP PRAYING TO THE ONLY LIVING GOD, IRRESPECTIVE OF ONE'S FAITH, RACE OR BELIEF. HAVE FAITH, HOPE AND BELIEF IN A LIVING GOD WE CANNOT SEE, BUT CAN TALK TO IN PRAYER. REMEMBER, NO MATTER FROM WHERE EVER PRAYERS ARE SAID IN ANY CORNER OF THE WORLD, THE LORD HEARS OUR PRAYERS AND WILL RESPOND IN HIS TIME.

We can expect a fundamental right petition to remove those who caught this parcel soon.
