Wow! Talks like they have fallen from the skies? Or rather risen up from the graves! Bravo. Last time it was the predominantly 3 wheeler types who voted for goat and messed up the country, looks like this time the more educated will also join their ranks and finish off the country faster than it recovered!

Ranil and his cohorts and Sajith and his cohorts have all corrupted and aging politicians with them. Many of them are old and sick with old political ideas unfit today in this modern digital age. Look how NPP is politics now with their young and youth around them. NPP is very much modern in all sense in its vision and mission and it its political philosophy as well in its pragmatic approach. We do not have copy right laws to apply otherwise, Sajith party will end up in court for copying the NPP.

Who would want to copy a fairytale? When you look at the NPP's manifesto, it is just a set of quixotic statements. The manifesto itself is sufficient to understand the naivety of the so called NPP economic thinktank. The manifesto's statements contradict themselves en masse. So, don't worry. Neither Ranil will copy nor Sajith has copied from the NPP's manifesto. So, you don't need to sue either party for plagiarism!

This is what you talk about at a rally? Wow. I guess the NPP voter base is not very intelligent either.

Their manifesto is a compilation of existing government initiatives reworded. Some of these have been copied from Dhammika Perera's books. There is nothing original or nothing subject to copyright law. For example , if the manifesto included words such as ' better healthcare' then that is the objective of any government. NPP manifesto is a full of fairytale with no substance or practical programs.

IF SJB copied your manifesto why issue the second copy of the NPP manifesto next. Are you going to change your policies in new manifesto after copying Harsha's theories in the SJB manifesto. And how do you know that NPP manifesto is being downloaded mostly by SJBers, possible because there are more SJBers than your supporters.

The NPP manifesto is just a set of words. There are so many mistakes in the figures given. The government has already implemented most of the policies mentioned. For example, Education, Health

They tried to force Lankans to take up Marxism in the 80s by murder, and the try to fool the Lankans into voting for them. If they win we will have to beg for help from North Korea, Cuba or Venezuela, all of whom are in a worse shape than us.

This man can not answer questions on debates properly. Lack of knowledge is obvious because former socialists now trying to parade as capitalists now. What they preach now is what Ranil has been saying all this time.

We are surprised to note that the NPP boast that the SMJ are downloading their manifesto and copying it for what purpose to take the country down a precipice. These fellows have plagiarized manifestos of original manifestos written by some of the learned politicians who were stalwarts of an era gone by making some amendments to suit the present context. Read some of these manifestos over the years by different political parties but they could not accomplish it due to inherent deviations with dishonest politicians who only say at the time of an election that they would give relief to the public and when the team are novices they blunder not knowing the correct mix to resuscitate the present situation of bankruptcy. Don't think it is smooth sailing because the percentage of poverty is very high and the population statistics show a high growth. These novices are making utterances for their popularity but as the saying goes" Pawu Pawu Yenakota Koku Koku Wennawa"

These fellows used to do this all the time having missed the lectures, and picketing during their university days. Now they can't even stand the idea of something similar happening to them.. By the way, the 22 August is a week ago, JH has to at least glance through the articles before publishing.

Now the JVP/NPP well embrace Liberal policies. Is it their invention or copying from others to grab power?

Don't jump the gun, there is nothing worthy of copying. Your No Policy Party was silent on important economic issues all these days. At- least SJB was expressing policy related matters right throughout, countering the adverse ones proposed by Ranil's govt. You guys were gathering these bits and pieces and have come out with a fancy document.

"They have become speechless now," he added. In 1988-89 too they were speechless when they saw JVP's activities of punishing ordinary citizens.
