I feel sorry for the 6.9 million voters who voted for an arrogant man, who never listen to advice from educated people. His one man decision made our beautiful country bankrupt.

I don't feel sorry for them but for the people who did not vote for them.

Yesterday’s hero is today’s villain only because we have no fuel, no food, no medicines. Even if GR goes unless there is going to be extreme structural and political changes there will be no change to our current predicament

I love my country… can’t wait to come back. Rajapaksha should all go home. May peace and prosperity prevail in Lanka

The greatest victory for SRI LANKA. The Rajapaksa family should be accountable for all this, and sent to prison.

Hats off for the BRVE Citizens of our country. They are True Heroes. By placing a person with very little knowledge but full of ulterior motives at the helm, we lost everything.

Rajapakses should be caught n detained in the country without allowing them to the country. They should be forced to return the stolen money immediately. Ranil should be asked to step down n appoint Sajith as the PM. Make Jayasuria as the President. Go for general election after 6 - 9 months.

Great but what NOW??? Saturday, 09 July 2022 02:47 PM

Well done for taking a stand and making a statement BUT this will NOT bring foreign currency to the nation. This will NOT help us buy fuel or medicines or gas. GOTA should have stepped down long time ago.
