Is there a method to check if funds will be used and managed appropriately? RW should order an itemized expense report and receipts of all funds used.

Hold on, am I seeing this correctly? Just a few months ago, the president said there wasn't enough money for elections. So, where's this new cash stash coming from? Are we printing money? Taking out a mega-loan? Or is this a SURA SARADIYAL act? Cutting funds from other programs to make it happen? Can someone dive deeper into this and give us the full story?

Forget your money wasting trips, Use the money on disadvantage. Sack all your advisers around you who sallow taxpayers money going buy luxury cars and receiving higher salaries.

Similar to those subversives advertising their gig in London spending hundreds of thousands of GBP using prime route double decker advertising. Probably those would be money looted during the late eighties!

I like Ranil because he doesn't have a family dynasty.

He made 80% percent of the people of this country to reduce their meal intake and there by keeping them half staved. He reduce theincome of senior citizens by reducing interest the they receive by half . He deprived them of having their medicine by increasing the prices to a phenomenal level. For all these he will receive a fitting reply if he contest the presidential election
