Directing to speed up renovations is good. RW has forgotten speed up the prosecutions or directing Police to speed up actions on the recommendations in the Commission report

Any country-loving citizen want to step up and take action? If the Army commander has a spine, now's the time to officially object. Regular citizens, it's your turn to head to court too. With the utmost respect, there's no objection to renovating the Zion Church in Batticaloa, but the timing and actions are suspicious, especially during election season. And the President’s sudden decision doesn’t sit well either. How can the President sleep on an issue for so long and then suddenly make a decision? We should give the Army the respect they deserve. They are not mere handymen. If we are to use the Army, it must be a voluntary arrangement. Decisions should be made by the men and women of the Army, not imposed on them.

Will he instruct to speed up prosecuting all the government robbers like the Rajapakses and modawansa etc who robbed this nation and led to near bankruptcy. Of course not. He needs their support to stay in power.

What splendid performance during the last five years, and the pin president was in power for two of these.
