Hey my vote is turning now to SLPP. We need young Sinhala Buddhist leaders who are rich. When you compete in business you do profit oriented deals ,that is accepted .If Namal/Basil come, SLPP will be zero.

A master racist view it seems. It does not seem to matter if they are casino mudalali's who find it difficult to pay their taxes when due and have no care of the vices that grow around it to make a quick buck, whose companies are ok to import garbage into the country from other countries in container loads again so long as they can make a buck.

He must be doing a collective political suicide if he is going to go with SLPP. If he goes with SLPP; Ranil will be happy. The more divided the more chance for Ranil .

Oh Casino Dammika who owned Rathupaswela factory that lead to killing all demonstrators is the ideal candidate for SLPP since all are in same boat. Heartless idiot.

Has Dhammika paid all the tax he defrauded ? Or is it a requirement of the SLPP that a candidate must have engaged in criminal activity?

Good old play: When Ranil knew he couldn’t win, he got Fonseka to run. Now that the SLPeePee knows they can’t win with a Rajapuksa, they are going with Dammika Perera (Ranil is teaching the new team well). My advice to Dammika Perera: bro if you loose the election, you will loose everything you have ! Just look at Fonseka

The SLPP will not have the slightest chance in the presidential elections with either a tycoon or any other candidate!!! Whoever will be named as candidates will be servants of the incompetent, unscrupulous Rajapaksas!!! After the experiences of the Rajapaksa era, the people of Sri Lanka have been virtually traumatized, but spiritually and politically awakened!!! They will give the SLPP, but also the dark men of the leadership of this party, a lesson that they will not forget for years!!! The Rajapaksa clan's lust for power, unscrupulousness, corruption, human rights violations and economic failure have plunged the majority of people into poverty and misery and are now being acknowledged in the elections!!! The SLPP and the Rajapaksas are getting what they have long deserved, the loss of all political power and the descent into insignificance!!!

SLPP is very sure of winning with any of the four candidates, they may even nominate all four potential candidates so as to split votes of other candidates. Look what happened to Ranil in parliament election.

Normal political thinking. An experienced person from the party who has the support may be from the forces, interior and extreme interior area voters.

Obviously it is hard for him when he himself publicly announced at the recent convention that 1/3 rd of the citizens are hipocrites Taken from voters count then 6.9 lakhs amounts to about 1/3 rd of the total population sitting in parliament and aptly described

His Excellency Rajapaksa should not think of fielding Dhammika Perera as a potential Presidential candidate, who might spoil the soup, bringing much more damage to the people's party SLPP.

Rajapaksas know that most people are poor and freebies can sway their vote. Promises of freebies coming from a wealthy businessman is more believable than from politicians. But people won't fall for it this time. Dhammika should avoid politics. It is too dirty.

MR is playing the same old game. Firstly it must be a person who will protect them or at least MR during his life time. What happens after his demise he will not be bothered as he cannot fix damage done for ever. Then the candidate too must be questionable person. That way MR will have a hold. DP is a Tax dogger. Smooth sailing for them folks

Dammika - You should be the front runner for Presidential race by miles however am sure you being a smart fella got the plan in place to counteract SLPP plan (BR MR NR SR and family excluding GR) behind the curtain to clip your wings should get elected. Above goons will not allow you to work and they will pull from your leg.

Dhammika if he is selected to contest on the SLPP Ticket, he will end up as loser not only of the Presidency but also of a greater part of his Financial Empire.
